How much curry is too much curry, you ask. Well according to Bombay Curry Club, there’s literally no limit.
This new weekly curry club in Manchester is promising all-you-can eat helpings of all your favourite Indian food, down to slabs of traditional tandoori-cooked naan bread and heaps of masala fries.
The Bombay Curry Club comes from Payal, a fan favourite at Freight Island behind Manchester Piccadilly.
Running every Thursday, hungry Mancs can queue up for a bottomless curry buffet for just £16 per person.
It’s like an all-inclusive holiday where you actually want to eat everything in the building.

Piled up under the row of silver domes you’ll find curries including chicken makhani, tender pieces of chicken swimming in a rich red butter sauce; and lamb karai, where fall-apart lamb comes with a gentle kick of chilli.
For veggies, there’s an aloo gobi masala, where soft cauliflower florets and fluffy potatoes rub shoulders with a whole heap of spices.

There are chunks of tandoori-cooked chicken tikka and veggie samosas to help yourself to too.
Bombay Curry Club also has free-flowing naan breads, cooked properly in the tandoor oven, and mountains of jefra rice.
Just you try and resist piling an entire plate full of their sweet and tangy masala fries too…

And to top it off, as if you’re not already so full you need a long lie down, you can chuck on some poppadoms, kachumber salad, and chutneys.
While you’re diving in on your Bombay Curry Club feast, you’ll be soundtrack by Freight Island’s resident DJs.

Drinks prices revealed as Manchester Airport’s first-ever Wetherspoons pub opens inside T2

It’s official… Manchester Airport’s first-ever JD Wetherspoon pub has officially opened its doors inside Terminal 2.
The 300-seater pub – which welcomed its first customers earlier this week – is named The Belle Vue after Manchester’s historic showground.
Throughout the pub, you’ll spot design features that nod to the city’s sporting heritage – including vintage event posters and memorabilia, a ‘locker wall’ hosting trophies and other sporting exhibits, and a cricket-themed design in the carpets and bar panels.
Creating around 150 jobs in the process, The Belle Vue is the final planned new eatery to open in the airport’s redeveloped Terminal 2, marking one of the final steps in the super-terminal’s decade-long, £1.5bn transformation.

According to the MEN, pints are priced from £6.20 for Carling and Coors lager, £6.45 for Budweiser, £6.60 for Guinness, and £6.70 for Poretti and 1664 Biere.
Prosecco is £9.20 for 175ml glass and £37.10 for the full bottle, while spirts and mixers are £6.80 for singles and £10.20 for doubles.
There’s also the classic Wetherspoons tea and coffee machines, where you can refill as many times as you like for just £3.60.
“It’s a proud moment to see the final new retail unit opening in our new-look Terminal 2,” commented Richard Jackson, who is the Retail Director at Manchester Airport.
“To be rounding off this 10-year programme by adding such an iconic name as Wetherspoon to the terminal is particularly special and we know that it will prove extremely popular with passengers. We think they’ll love the nods to Manchester’s heritage in the décor and design – and of course the name.”
The Belle Vue will be open from the first flight to the final flight each day, and food will be served from opening until 10pm.

One of Manchester’s leading curry houses is bringing back its bottomless curry offering very soon.
For just £20, diners can tuck into unlimited curry, rice and naan at Zouk Tea Bar & Grill, stuffing yourself silly on authentic dishes from from all over the Indian subcontinent.
There’s nothing quite like getting the gang together for a proper curry, and Zouk is making it even easier to do exactly that this October.
They’ll be bringing back the £20 Bottomless Curry deal for National Curry Week 2026, running for five nights only, from Monday 5 October to Friday 9 October, with tables available between 5pm and 10pm each evening.
Guests can choose one curry from a daily selection of four, with meat, vegetarian and vegan options available throughout the week.
Once you’ve picked your curry, you can then order as many portions as you fancy during your 90-minute booking.
Rice and naan are unlimited too, so there’s no shortage of carbs to mop up the curry with.
The dishes on the menu include some of Zouk’s favourites, such as Chicken Karahi, Lamb Rogan Josh, Chicken Tikka Masala, Dall Makhani, Chicken Handi and Gobi Manchurian.
The exact four-dish selection varies by day, giving curry fans a reason to head back more than once during the five-day promotion.
And yes, you can go back for another helping.
Zouk owner Tayub Amjad said: “National Curry Week is always a great excuse to celebrate the food we love.
“Bottomless Curry has become a real favourite with our customers, so we’re excited to bring it back for five nights. It’s relaxed, great value and perfect for getting friends together for a proper curry night.”
Advance booking is recommended – you can book your table for the Zouk Bottomless Curry nights HERE.
