Manchester is soon to welcome yet another new bottomless brunch to town, and this is one of the most unique concepts so far.
With the choice of bottomless brunch offerings in the city growing by the day, the UK’s original urban axe-throwing brand Whistle Punks – which opened its doors in Manchester back in November 2019 – is set to take its own spin on things by launching a bottomless axe-throwing brunch from this August bank holiday weekend called ‘Sunday Sessions’.
During what is described as “the most visceral bottomless brunch in the UK”, you’ll first get to take part in an axe-throwing competition with your best mates, all before sitting down to tuck into unlimited food and drinks.
You can expect irresistible sourdough pizza, delicious cocktails, and contemporary craft beers.
With bottomless brunch sessions at 11:20am, 12:40pm, 2pm, and 3:20pm every from Sunday 28 August onwards, each party can take on 70-minutes of axe throwing followed by 50-minutes of bottomless pizza and drinks for just £30 per person.

Drinks will be available for the full two hours, and a selection of beers and cocktails can also be ordered direct to your lanes.
Alongside an extensive menu of freshly-prepared pizza, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options too, some of the classic drinks in the bottomless offer include Whistle Punks Lager, Bloody Marys, Aperol Spritz, prosecco, and more.
“I think a large part of the appeal is that it feels like something you shouldn’t be allowed to do,” explained Whisle Punks’ co-founder Jools Whitehorn ahead of the brunch launch.
“It’s a visceral experience which is physical without being too demanding, and it all takes place under the close watch of our instructors who make sure everyone stays safe while having a truly unique night out [so] with our brand new axe brunch launching at Whistlepunks Manchester, we feel we’ve put together the most high-octane brunch experience in the city.”

Prestwich wine bar Chin Chin now serves roast dinner sandwiches
Daisy Jackson
A new (ish) wine bar in Prestwich has launched one of the city’s coolest Sunday offerings – roast dinner sandwiches, with a side of jazz.
If I’ve said it once I’ve said it 1000 times – Elnecot is up there as one of Manchester’s best Sunday roasts, with Yorkshire puddings you could fit a jug of gravy inside, blushing slices of roast beef, and generous portions that put you in the sort of food coma you should be in on a Sunday afternoon.
So when Roast Master (okay fine, his official job title is chef/owner) Michael Clay said that his sister venue Chin Chin was launching a Sunday offering, I was there with my nose pressed up at the window. I’m ready, Michael.
Sunday Sessions at Chin Chin, right in the heart of Prestwich village, brings that incredible roast beef and roast potatoes into a more casual format.
You can tuck into roast meat butties, roast potatoes loaded with cheese and gravy, and ice cream sundaes, all while perusing a well-thought-out wine list that’s written up by hand every time new bottles come in.
Oh, and did we mention there are £4 pints all day on Sunday – and that includes Guinness?
On the side of just about everything on the menu, you’re presented with a little bowl of extra gravy (how delightfully Northern) for dipping and dunking.

Our top pick would be the roast beef sandwich, served between ciabatta rolls and laced with mustard mayo and caramelised onions.
But the cheese toastie is worth a visit too – a hefty helping of Lancashire cheese and charred spring onions, with a ‘secret sauce’ on the side.
Coming soon will be a new menu item, a Bifana sandwich. If you’ve trudged the streets of Portugal you’ll have come across these – thin slices of pork marinated in white wine and garlic, piled into bread with a punchy mustard. Chin Chin’s are excellent.
And for afters, because there is always room for dessert, it’s a lovely ice cream sundae topped with miso caramel and a showering of pistachios.
The whole time you’ll be eating with a soundtrack of jazz, played through the wine bar’s vinyl record system and Michael’s own personal collection of vinyls.
Chin Chin is open now on Bury New Road, with food on Sundays served between 12pm and 6pm.
