Manchester cocktail spot Tiki Hideaway is poised to launch a brand-new drinks menu and to celebrate, they’re giving away free drinks throughout the month of September, plus the chance to win a sensational top prize.
Honestly, if you thought a free cocktail or two sounded good, wait until you hear this.
The Northern Quarter spot, tucked in the basement just underneath Mean Eyed Cat last autumn, has quickly become a bit of a hidden gem here in the city centre and now they’re set to make things even more interesting with his new promotion.
As part of the new ‘Ticket to Paradise’ giveaway, Mancs can score themselves a complimentary cocktail by signing up to their new website.

New additions include the El Diablo, which uses El Jimador Blanco Tequila alongside ginger and blackcurrant; ‘Tradewinds’, combining Havana Club 3 Year Rum and Appleton Estate Signature Rum with apricot, lemon, and coconut and historic South Pacific drink, and the curiously named ‘Doctor Funk’.
That’s genuinely just a small taste of what’s to come. With prices starting from £11, there are a total of 10 new drinks to choose from and there genuinely is something for everyone. The Island Inspirations drinks are even available for £10.50 each or two for £15. A belting deal.

But as mentioned, the real eye-catcher here is the chance to win a Tiki night out in the Hideaway’s VIP Coconut Cabana space, where you’ll also be given up to £500 to spend behind the bar.
Turning the bar into a roped-off paradise perfect for private hire spaces or big bookings, allowing for the winner and friends to try out the new menu and discover new cocktail favourites, you simply have to sign up from 30 August for your guaranteed free cocktail to be entered into the prize draw.

Spotlighting two particular standouts, mixologist Calum Anderson said: “‘The Blackstrap Daiquiri’ from our Island Inspiration section is a truly unique cocktail unlike anything else on our menu.

“Usually, a Daiquiri is a very light and fresh drink. This version turns that completely on its head by using black spiced rum with black molasses syrup and root ginger to create a rich, heavy, and spiced Daiquiri variation.
“On this menu, I love the ‘House Grog’. It’s the perfect mix of high-quality, overproof rum, tropical flavours, and island spices. This really epitomises what Tiki culture and drinks mean to me, as well as having some fascinating history.”
Whatever kind of tipple takes your fancy, the team are pretty confident you’ll find it at Tiki Hideaway. You can make the most of this offer strictly from Friday, 30 August until the end of December, so don’t wait around!
Tiki Hideaway Manchester will be dishing out free cocktails from 30 August until the end of September.

Joe & The Juice to open even MORE locations in Manchester city centre
Daisy Jackson
Joe & The Juice is set to launch yet more juice bars and coffee shops in Manchester city centre.
The viral brand used to have a spot in town within the former Debenhams building, but vanished from Greater Manchester when the department store folded.
But its comeback has been remarkable since reopening in town last year, with the number of Joe & The Juice locations now at an all-time high.
And there are even more on the way…
Bright pink hoardings have appeared on a corner unit on Princess Street, right off St Peter’s Square, teasing a new Joe & The Juice cafe in the city centre.
The unit has been empty for at least 10 years, despite being in such a prime part of the city centre.
Plans were also revealed last year for the Danish-based brand to open within the reopened Sunlight House on Quay Street.

The new additions will bring the number of Joe & The Juices in Greater Manchester to five, adding to their existing portfolio of Cross Street, Manchester Airport T2, and the Trafford Centre.
The brand is known for its signature menu of juices, smoothies, health shots, coffees and matchas, plus its viral Scandi-inspired sandwiches like the Tunacado.
With more than 300 juice bars and coffee shops around the world, Joe & The Juice’s pink branding has become a familiar site globally since its launch in 2002.
An exact opening date for the new St Peter’s Square Joe & The Juice hasn’t been revealed yet, but the signs promise it’s ‘coming soon’.
Inside the new Manchester food hall opening in a Grade II-listed building

The operators behind a brand-new food hall in Manchester city centre have shared a glimpse inside.
Work is underway to transform the Grade II-listed Ducie Street Warehouse into an enormous food hall concept, with 11 kitchens plus an outdoor terrace, mini cinema, tequila bar, and game rooms.
When it opens this summer, Manchester Street Food will also have a self-service beer tap wall and two stages, as well as a 75-cover private hire space.
Ducie Street Warehouse closed late last year to make room for the building’s new chapter, as the team behind Edinburgh Street Food (ESF) take the reins.
In new images shared today, original features like the arched brick ceilings and terracotta tiled floors will be retained, but the space will have plenty of colour added in the form of murals, painted pillars, and neons.
ESF is looking to expand right across the UK over the next five years, kicking off here in Manchester on the edges of the Northern Quarter.
The 15,000 sq ft internal space, just a stone’s throw from Manchester Piccadilly, will have space for 450 people inside plus another 180 on the south-facing terrace outside.

A winter garden will host breakfast service, while guest traders will take over the terrace to keep the offering fresh.
The existing 32-seat mini cinema in the building will be retained in the new plans for Manchester Street Food.
Manchester Street Food is expected to generate 180 employee opportunities.
Ben MacMillan, ESF Managing Director, said: “Manchester has always been a city with incredible energy, creativity and a love of food, so bringing our concept here in this stunning venue is a natural and exciting next step.
“We want to create a space brought to life by local artists which celebrates the city’s culture and provides line up independent traders and brewers a city centre platform to shine.
“We’ve seen how much people embraced the spirit of ESF in Edinburgh and we know Manchester, with its energy and hunger for innovation will take it to another level. We’re incredibly excited about making the city our second home.”
