"We've had a fantastic response since announcing Veeno, and the team is looking forward to welcoming people through the doors on 15 October.
"Whether it's a glass of wine after work, a meal with friends or a celebration, we want to create a destination people enjoy coming back to."
Veeno was founded by Sicilian entrepreneur Nino Caruso to showcase wines from his family’s Caruso & Minini vineyard in Marsala, Sicily.

The venue is centred on the Italian tradition of aperitivo, which celebrates taking time to enjoy food, wine, and conversation.
The menu will feature Italian cheeses and cured meats, Roman-style pinsa, pasta, and dishes such as Sicilian sausage with roasted potatoes.
Dessert options will include tiramisu and cannoli filled with sweet ricotta.
Veeno’s wine list will highlight bottles from the Caruso & Minini vineyard as well as other Italian producers.
Guests can book tasting experiences including Quattro Vini, which pairs four wines with Italian meats and cheeses, and A Trip to Sicily, featuring five exclusive Caruso & Minini wines with food pairings.
Italian afternoon tea will also be available.
To celebrate the Northallerton launch, Veeno is running a competition offering one winner and a guest a trip to Sicily, including a visit to the Caruso & Minini vineyard in Marsala.
To enter, guests can sign up through the venue’s newsletter by 31 October 2026.
Veeno Northallerton will open at Unit 7, Treadmills Leisure Scheme, East Road, Northallerton, DL6 1AU.
