There’s a bottomless brunch in Manchester where you can drink endless cups of rum punch and eat unlimited portions of chicken wings, and it sounds like absolute heaven.
Launched by the hit BBQ restaurant, bar, and music venue The Blues Kitchen, chicken wing fans can enjoy 90 minutes of non-stop munching for £12 per person (or £20 for two people).
Served with a tasty blue cheese dip and celery, those heading down can expect to find giant platters of The Blues Kitchen’s legendary buffalo (or Korean) wings on offer every Sunday.
First launched in February this year, it has been described by the venue as ‘the ultimate wing-eating challenge.’
Of course, when you’re eating that much buffalo sauce chances are you’re going to want a few drinks to wash all that spice down. This is where The Blues Kitchen’s bottomless drinks deal comes in.
Only available to order with food, there are two 90 minutes bottomless drinks options to choose from: unlimited rum punch and mimosas for £19.95 or unlimited glasses of prosecco for £21.96.
As the drinks and food packages are available to order separately, if you don’t feel like housing down a hundred chicken wings but still want to go bottomless there are plenty of other options here too.
From hot buffalo chicken and buttermilk fried shrimp sandwiches to double bacon cheese smash burgers, plates of huevos rancheros, smoked baby back ribs, cajun blackened salmon and smoked salmon and eggs, there’s a huge range of tempting choices to pick from.

Small plates, meanwhile, include the likes of cheeseburger spring rolls, smashed avocado tostadas and Szechuan baby back ribs, with prices starting from just £7.50.
As of June, the team has also introduced Korean wings to its bottomless deal. Available every Sunday throughout the month between 12pm – 6pm, guests can feast on bottomless Korean wings coated in sweet and lightly-spiced Guochang sauce for only £12.
First launched in Manchester two summers ago, the BBQ, bourbon and blues music venue doesn’t just boast a brilliant kitchen but also a a star-studded lineup of music performers in its upstairs venue.
A huge new Irish bar has opened in Manchester city centre (yes, another one)

There’s another new Irish pub in Manchester city centre, this time on one of our busiest nightlife strips, Peter Street.
Katie O’Brien’s has officially thrown open the doors to its enormous two-storey venue, taking over and transforming the former Peaky Blinders bar.
Inside, there are three bars pouring both Guinness AND Murphys, a huge elevated stage on its own mezzanine level, which will host live musicians seven nights a week, and walls packed with decor transporting you to the Emerald Isle.
The makeover they’ve given this massive unit really is quite something, creating all sorts of cosy corners and snug areas where you can nurse a pint of stout.
Faux fireplaces, leather booth seating, and low ceilings all set the tone for a relaxed pint in the snugs.
Or if you want something a little livelier, head to the heart of the bar, where you can dance the night away to the live entertainment above your head.
Manchester’s Katie O’Brien’s is set to be their largest Irish bar yet, with existing locations all over the UK, including in Leeds and Sheffield.
Their rapid expansion has now brought them to the heart of Manchester, where they’ll be neighbouring bustling nightlife spots like Albert’s Schloss, Manahatta, and Impossible.

The venue has taken over what was once the Peaky Blinders bar, which shut down back in March.
The previous occupier had themed its venue and menu around the hit gangster show, with cocktails named after characters.
They wrote at the time: “It is with an extremely heavy heart that we unfortunately have to announce the closure of Peaky Blinders Manchester with immediate effect. On behalf of our entire team, we are truly thankful to every guest who has stepped through our doors since opening in 2018.
“We are devastated it has had to end this way, but grateful for the journey. Thank you so much for your continued support over the years. It’s been a blast, Manchester!”
Katie O’Brien’s is open now on Peter Street in Manchester.
One of Manchester’s most popular brunch spots is opening its second location

A brunch spot with queues down the street, and an edible Labubu French toast on the menu, is opening a second location this summer.
Bruncho has revealed plans to expand from its home on Deansgate and take on the Northern Quarter.
The all-day brunch cafe is set to move into the huge unit left empty by the shock closure of Feel Good Club.
Bruncho is known for its brunch dishes that have a real knack for going viral on social media, including New York-style breakfast rolls in croissant bread; fresh coconut water and matcha served in the coconut; and its absolutely stacked French toasts.
It’s consistently packed out at its original location on Deansgate, and now it’s taking over a 4,378 sq ft unit in the Northern Quarter too, set to open this June.
Omer Umut Mutlu, owner of Bruncho, said: “Manchester has shown Bruncho so much love, and expanding into the Northern Quarter feels like the natural next step for us.
“Hilton House gives us the space to elevate what we do – more covers, more events, and a new home for the kind of food and atmosphere people will make the journey for.

“We’re excited to bring something fresh to the neighbourhood, with the opening scheduled for June 2026.”
Paul Shakeshaft, Head of Property Management at CERT, commented: “We’ve found the ideal tenant to join the Hilton House community. Bruncho provides a new focal point for the building and for the community.
“They’re a fantastic operator with big plans that bring the right fit and the right atmosphere to the building and neighbourhood.
“Signing Bruncho brings Hilton House back to full occupation, including a full refit in just seven months, underpinning our neighbourhood vision for our commercial properties, and their continued success and appeal far beyond their completion.”
Bruncho will open their second Manchester cafe in the Northern Quarter this June.
