You know summer has properly arrived when the Pimms starts flowing and the balls start pinging around the courts at Wimbledon – and now there’s a themed bottomless brunch on the way to Manchester.
The Wimbledon Bottomless Brunch will be offering 90 minutes of unlimited Pimms, served alongside a full brunch menu.
And there’ll be free-flowing prosecco, mimosas and beers on offer too.
While the drinks and good times are flowing, The Lawn Club will be showing the Wimbledon games on big screens throughout the venue.
The Lawn Club’s Wimbledon Bottomless Brunch will be running between 3 and 16 July.

Dishes you can order alongside your drinks include pizzas like The Lawn, topped with tomato, mozzarella, mushroom, peppers, red onion and sweetcorn, or The Carne, loaded with bacon, ham and salami.
There’s also a classic chicken Caesar salad, and chicken wings in three flavours (including garlic and truffle butter).

The Wimbledon bottomless brunch deal will cost £37.50 and will run right through the tournament, with each session lasting 90 minutes.
You can add on a Wimbledon staple – strawberries and cream – for an extra £5.

Bakery chain Gail’s is attempting to win over Prestwich after spelling mishap
Daisy Jackson
Gail’s has announced a plan to try and make amends with Prestwich after spelling the village’s name wrong on the new bakery’s signs.
The massive bakery chain finally confirmed that it would be moving into the suburb on the fringes of Bury and Manchester, but made a fatal flaw at the first step.
The huge posters are missing the letter ‘T’, instead saying ‘Hello Preswich’.
More than a few eyebrows were raised locally, with people saying it’s ‘not a great first impression for the locals…’.
And now Gail’s is attempting to put things right by offering free tea to Prestwich residents.
In new material released today, they wrote: “Oops… people of Prestwich, we owe you a ‘T’.
“You may have seen how we missed out a ‘t’ in our new bakery signage.
“We’re sorry for the mistake, and to make up for it we’d like to brew you a tea when we open.”
The new advertising has a QR code which people can scan to claim their free cuppa.
Gail’s has also passed its thanks on to ‘local resident Clair’, who actually came up with the suggestion on The Manc’s LinkedIn post here.
With this development, Gail’s has now confirmed it’ll be opening in Prestwich – directly opposite the new Rudy’s – in early 2025, with free tea served then to those who scan the QR code.

Salon Madre – A new tequila bar and pool hall is opening in Manchester
Daisy Jackson
A new tequila bar and pool hall is set to open in Manchester in a couple of weeks, from the same team behind Madre.
The huge new space, Salon Madre, will be serving up the tacos and burritos that have made the Mexican restaurant at Kampus so well-loved.
And all that’s alongside a drinks menu that centres around tequila, including frozen, classic and flavoured margaritas and palomas.
Can’t stomach tequila? There’ll also be wines on draft, Corona and local beers.
The food menu will show off signature dishes like al pastor tacos, with daily rotating specials, plus Gringas, nachos and Madre’s huge burritos.
Salon Madre has taken over a spot just off Kampus’s lush garden that was previously home to a Seven Brothers taproom, right next door to Madre itself.

As well as all the Mexican food and drink goodness, the bar will have four pool tables and will be screening Lucha Libre (Mexican wrestling) and American sports.
The dream is to bring the fun and liveliness of a Mexican pool hall to the heart of Manchester, in this beautiful spot right near Piccadilly and Canal Street.
Salon Madre will open on 6 December at Kampus, with bookings for Christmas groups and parties now available.
