Aldi slashes price of ‘garden bar' to just £5 down from £15 – in time for drinks outside this summer
ALDI has slashed the price of a garden bar from £15 to just £5 - right in time for drinks outside this summer. The Garden Bar Trolley selling at the bargain retailer is going for just £4.99 - and shoppers are racing to get their hands on one. 4 The incredible price tag gets you a sturdy outdoors rack with two trays - perfect for holding summer drinks. The bottom level even comes with handy wine bottle holders. These sleek hoops are designed to keep your bottles in place in case of any accidents or spills - more frequent than usual with kids playing in the sun. And the trolley comes with another ingenious hack which is bound to sell any potential buyer. A glass holding rack rests just under the top tray, making it easy to store wine glasses upside down. This feature will save you space, make it safer to store glasses, and will keep them all in one helpful location for ease of access. These built-in features make the trolley a useful and stylish addition to any garden this summer. The trolley also has wheels at the bottom so it can be moved around or from inside to outside if needed. And the top of the trolley has a handlebar so that it can be transported around easily. The jaw-dropping find was posted to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group. Shoppers race to M&S as one of their best selling items which is a mum-essential viral are scanning for just 63 PENCE The user that spotted and purchased the must-have trolley posted a picture of it in their garden. They captioned the photo: "£4.99 in Aldi yesterday." The comments section blew up as shoppers flooded the post with positive reactions. One user said: "If you see one next time your in Aldi can you grab me one please and thankyou xx." Another commented: "We could do with a couple of these xx." A third weighed in: "Getting two of these if they have them." While another asked: "I really want one, was there more? Which store?" It comes as Aldi continues to sell dozens of summer bargains in preparation for garden parties and get-togethers for the holiday season. For just £4.99, you could get your hands on a 30cm Winchester Planter to add some texture. Available in three different colours, the planter is perfect for anywhere in the garden, which includes patios and doors. If you wanted to rearrange the layout or change your view, it's also very easy to move. For those planning to host picnics, hot lunches or dinner parties, Aldi is also selling food umbrellas for just £1.69. With four sizes available (pop-up, medium, large, extra large), you can lay out a feast for your family and friends and keep it insect free. You can also customise the cheap and clever cover with either plain, strawberry or flamingo emblazoned designs. For those with young kids, the shop is also selling a very cheap Little Town water sprinkler for just £4.99. This is the perfect outdoor toy to keep children entertained throughout the summer to ensure playful and cool playtimes. Again, you can choose from three different designs to suit the preference of your child whether they like flowers, whales or an octopus. 4

This City Was Just Named One of the Best in the U.S, and It Now Has a Hotel With a Swim-up Bar
New Orleans, which Travel+Leisure readers recently voted the second-best city in the U.S., has a chic new stay. The Garden District Hotel officially opened its doors in June, bringing contemporary luxury to one of NOLA's most picturesque neighborhoods. Sitting among towering oak trees in the historic Garden District, the boutique hotel offers elevated Southern hospitality and a host of inviting gathering spaces, including a pool with The Big Easy's only swim-up bar. Managed by the Dallas-based Dreamscape Hospitality, the hotel features 47 guest rooms, each decked in plush furnishings, herringbone wood floors, and marble bathrooms. Select accommodations, like the Deluxe Loft Queen, have private balconies with views of the charming neighborhood's tree-canopied streets, while the two-level District Suite is complete with vaulted ceilings, a loft living room, and two full bathrooms. However, the jewel of the hotel is its shimmering heated saltwater pool. Guests can sip tropical cocktails on the pool deck—on loungers under striped umbrellas, or from a seat at the swim-up bar. The hotel encourages socializing with lawn games, a calendar of events, and scheduled poolside yoga sessions. (Day passes are available for non-hotel guests.) Another distinct social hub, set just off the lobby, the Garden Bar serves handcrafted cocktails—such as the Adult Swim, a fruity and herbaceous gin sour—amid bold tropical murals, exposed brick walls, tiled floors, and warm leather seating. 'Our vision for The Garden District Hotel was to create a space that feels like a natural extension of the neighborhood—elegant, inviting, and full of character,' Ceptember Evans, Dreamscape Hospitality's area general manager, tells T+L. 'It [the hotel] is a destination in itself with experiences for both locals and guests, from sipping botanical-inspired cocktails in the Garden Bar's natural setting to lounging in one of New Orleans' largest pools. Guests can relax and explore here, discovering the best of New Orleans from an inspired retreat.' The hotel's lobby (left) and Garden Bar. Sara Essex Bradley/The Garden District Hotel In November 2024, Dreamscape Hospitality also launched The Blackbird Hotel ( standard rooms from $400/night ), a 13-room boutique stay just a block away from its sibling property. Housed in a centuries-old former children's home, it features an open-air courtyard, its own pool surrounded by greenery, a lobby bar, and the Blackbird Café, serving local Cherry Coffee Roasters drinks. Nightly rates at The Garden District Hotel start from $300, and you can book your stay at

'Liverpool's best beer garden' reopens inside iconic city centre space
A beer garden is reopening in one of the city's most iconic spaces. The St Luke's Bombed Out Church beer garden returns today, just in time for summer. The iconic landmark at the top of Bold Street was originally bombed during the May Blitz of 1941. Today, the church space is a striking partial ruin, surrounded by picturesque gardens. Visitors can once again step inside and experience the space in a different way - with a pint in hand. The venue's Garden Bar is serving customers once again from today - Friday, April 4. READ MORE: 11 of the best dressed couples at this year's Grand National READ MORE: AP McCoy shares his tip for the 2025 Grand National at Ivy launch event The beer garden has been set up in the gardens around the church building, with plenty of cover from enormous parasols if the weather takes a turn for the worse. Taking to Instagram to announce its return, The Garden Bar said: "Here we go again. It's almost time to chase the sun in our garden. "Reopening this Friday, just in time for you to soak up the glorious weather this weekend in one of Liverpool's best beer gardens." The beer garden is open on Friday from 1pm and on Saturday, April 5 and Sunday, April 6 from 12pm. The venue added: "Visiting our Garden bar supports the site's events, projects and upkeep - so whether you're sipping a coffee or enjoying a pint, you're supporting something bigger." People were glad to hear of the news with Ted writing: "Such a wonderful space in the centre of town, love it", and Rachel adding: "Looks gorgeous". It comes as another hidden gem of a space also reopened recently. Sub Rosa, which is run by the team behind the much-loved Botanical Garden, is welcoming customers into its suntrap space in the Baltic Triangle Area. The venue features a large events space, with room for up to 30 people, seating areas made from converted trolleys and a bar made from a shipping container. The extensive drinks menu includes a range of lager created in collaboration with Black Lodge Brewery, several cocktails, and the hugely popular flavoured gin slushies. You can read more about here.
