There’s a Japanese restaurant in Manchester serving all you can eat sushi, sashimi and teppenyaki and we’re a little bit obsessed.
Sushi Mami on Portland Street is a relatively new addition to the city, having opened its doors in Manchester at the end of last year.
The Japanese restaurant serves poke bowls, bento boxes, and a full A La Carte menu, but one thing that really sets it apart from its competitors is the new all-you-can-eat menu that stretches through lunch into dinner.

With over 40 different types of sushi to choose from, plus sashimi, gyoza, rice rolls, tempura, soups, salads, rice, noodle and teppenyaki dishes, this is a deal not to be sniffed at.
Prices start from £26.99 per person for an early weekday lunch, and peak at £34.99 if you’re visiting for dinner on the weekend (Fridays and Saturdays). For that, you’ll get at least three and a half hours of non-stop sushi, sashimi and more.

All ordered via an app then brought directly to your table by Sushi Mami’s wait staff, further dishes on offer include meat and fish from the robata grill (think king prawns, salmon, lamb chops and chicken) and ‘Japanese Wok’ dishes like sweet and sour chicken, shredded beef and katsu.

Elsewhere, you’ll find steaming bowls of ramen, udon and yakisoba noodles topped with your choice of meat, veg or fish. It’s a veritable feast, and all for one fixed price.

Be warned, though, whilst there is an abundance of food on offer the team are hugely anti-waste – to the extent they’ve introduced a penalty charge for anything you leave behind.
That means that for every item ordered but left uneaten, you’ll be charged an additional £1 – so you better make sure you’ve not got eyes bigger than your belly.

New proposals to transform one of Manchester’s busiest roads revealed
Emily Sergeant
New proposals which could transform one of Manchester’s busiest roads have been unveiled.
Oldham Road is one the key routes into the city centre, and sees upwards of 26,000 journeys a day via a combination of car, bike, and public transport, according to Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM), but these new plans are set to improve journey times, safer crossings, protected cycleways, better connections, and boost sustainability.
“We know that things can be better,” TfGM said in a statement unveiling the proposals this week, adding that change is needed.
In the last five years alone, there have been 36 collisions on Oldham Road between Great Ancoats Street and Queens Road, with seven serious injuries caused as a result, which is why Council believes, with a number of targeted improvements, the road can be made better for everyone.

When asked during the last consultation, hundreds of locals said what they wanted buses to come more often and be more reliable, safer places to cross the road, wider pavements for walking, and better-protected cycle lanes.
As part of the unveiled plans – which are currently out for consultation too – TfGM and the Council is proposing adding more bus lanes so buses don’t get stuck in traffic, as well making bus stops nicer with better places to wait, and building more cycle lanes that are separate from cars.
Proposals also include changing traffic lights to help people cross the road, and fixing busy junctions so they’re easier and safer to cross.

“Improving everyday journeys is a priority, and the proposals for Oldham Road are central to this,” commented Alison Chew, who is TfGM’s Interim Director of Bus.
“Through the Bee Network, we’re creating a joined-up, safer and more affordable transport system for Greater Manchester, reducing congestion for everyone and connecting people with places and opportunities.
“These plans aim to make bus stops safer and easier to use, improve the speed and reliability of bus services, and provide better walking and cycling routes with upgraded crossings and footpaths.
“As Manchester city centre continues to grow, improving the way people can move easily around the city is a major driver for change. We know that things can be better.”

New state-of-the-art modern wellness and recovery destination opens in Manchester
Emily Sergeant
Manchester’s wellness landscape has just changed… for the better.
Brysk has arrived in our city, unveiling a premium, design led studio dedicated to recovery, performance, and preventative health.
Opening its doors just off St Ann’s Square, offering what it calls a ‘technology-led approach’ to everyday health, Brysk is all about helping people stay ahead of stress, poor sleep, inflammation, skin concerns, and low energy.
Designed as a wellness studio rather than a spa or clinic, Brysk aims to bridge the gap between premium comfort and clinical level care, and is currently the only place in Manchester to provide a full suite of modern recovery and wellness services under one roof – including the city centre’s only hard-shelled hyperbaric oxygen chamber delivering 1.8 ATA sessions.
Whole body and localised cryotherapy treatments are also available, alongside red light therapy and compression therapy.
Manchester was chosen for Brysk’s launch due to the city’s strong wellness and fitness culture.
Tailored for everyday people, not just amateur and elite athletes, Brysk supports busy professionals, parents, and shift workers, as well as those managing menopause symptoms, skin concerns, chronic inflammation, or recovering from injury.
The studio is also set to host a weekly run club, wellness events, and group recovery sessions now that it’s open to the public, while corporate wellness mornings and private group bookings are also available in Thursdays and Saturdays, supported by Proflex Therapy – the studio’s physiotherapy partner.

Brysk owners, father and son team Chris and Nathan, say their aiming to become Manchester’s go-to destination for cryotherapy and modern wellness, building a culture where recovery and preventative health are viewed not as a luxury, but as essential to everyday life.
All services on offer are delivered through structured safety-led protocols, backed by sports science and nutrition knowledge.
Single sessions, tailored service packages, and flexible credit-based memberships are all on offer, meaning clients are able to integrate recovery and preventative health into their routines in a way that suits their lifestyle.
