One of Salford’s newest openings, 11 Central, is serving up a decadent Sunday roast this Mother’s Day and the best part of all is, mums can eat absolutely free.
The way it should be, as far as we’re concerned.
The new addition to the recently renovated Quayside over at MediaCityUK has fast become a favourite amongst those local to the ever-growing Salford Quays.
Just next door from the equally busy Kargo MKT, which has already become a popular spot in its own right, the culinary creation and bar from natives SEVEN BRO7HERS and SIS4ERS DISTILLERY is now attracting even more people through the doors with their Mother’s Day offering.
As 11 Central remains a family affair, the team behind the Central Bay microbrewery and dining experience have decided to honour the McAvoy family matriarch, Freda, by serving up as many 11 Central free roasts for mums as they can muster.

The one-time offer is available via reservations only and for tables of three or more people only.
Promising not only a big hearty roast with all the trimmings and lashings of gravy, there will also be a Sunday lamb-based special to mark the occasion.

Better still, diners will be able to enjoy live entertainment alongside their roast, as well as soak up all of the atmosphere with a classic cocktail or craft beer from the brewing pros. And it doesn’t stop there.

To make the day extra special for mums, the on-site SIS4ERS micro-distillery will also be running gin-making sessions for Mother’s Day. Lush.
Serving mums from 12pm until 6pm, walk-ins are also welcome but will not have access to the deal, so if you want to score mama a free scran, make sure you book ahead.

Keith McAvoy, CEO of SEVEN BRO7HERS BREWING CO, said: “This Mother’s Day we will celebrate our mum who has instilled love, work ethic and the importance of family throughout our lives.
“We are very lucky to have her around as we continue our 11 Central journey together as a whole family, and so we invite everyone to come down and spoil their mum with us this Mothering Sunday.”
Drinks prices revealed as Manchester Airport’s first-ever Wetherspoons pub opens inside T2
Emily Sergeant
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.

The Manchester restaurant serving bottomless curry for just £20 during National Curry Week
Daisy Jackson
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.
