There’s a bottomless brunch in Manchester where you can drink endless cups of rum punch and eat unlimited portions of chicken wings, and it sounds like absolute heaven.
Famed for their legendary wings, The Blues Kitchen is turning up the heat even more this autumn with an all-new 90-minute Bottomless Szechuan Wings deal, available every Sunday throughout September from 12-6pm.
For only £12 per person, chicken wing fans can enjoy delicious Asian-inspired wings coated in a hot and spicy Szechuan sauce – peppered to perfection and packed with flavour.
The Bottomless Szechuan Wings are served alongside a tasty blue cheese dip and celery, giving diners 90 minutes to eat as many wings as they possibly can muster in that time.

Say no more — challenge accepted.
Of course, when you’re eating that much buffalo sauce, chances are you’re going to want a few drinks to wash all that spice down.

As the drinks and food packages are available to order separately, if you don’t feel like hoovering up a hundred chicken wings but still want to go bottomless there are plenty of other options here too.
From hot buffalo chicken and buttermilk fried shrimp sandwiches and double bacon cheese smash burgers, to plates of huevos rancheros; smoked baby back ribs, cajun blackened salmon, as well as smoked salmon and eggs, there’s a huge range of tempting choices to pick from.
The Blues Kitchen also boasts a well-stocked bar with over 80 bourbons and a dedicated menu of cocktails, beers, wine, spirits and whiskeys from around the world, making it a perfect place to roll into Sunday evening — not to mention live soul and blues music from 8pm.
The Blues Kitchen’s infamous hot Buffalo wings will also be available throughout September.
Inside Manchester’s new padel club with a Pot Kettle Black cafe and courtside cocktail bar

Padel is the fastest-growing sport in the world, and it’s really picking up speed in Manchester now too with another city centre club opening this month.
The Pollen Club is a little different to the others, in that it’s fully undercover and protected from Manchester’s less-than-favourable weather.
And another thing that makes it a must-visit is the cafe attached to it – a third site for the beloved Pot Kettle Black.
The Pollen Club and Pot Kettle Black have both taken over a prominent city centre spot just off Deansgate, at the foot of the recently-opened Treehouse Hotel.
There are two state-of-the-art padel courts inside, with a mezzanine terrace for enjoy Pot Kettle Black’s offerings.
In summer, there are plans to launch a bar downstairs too, where you can sip spritzes courtside from loungers and swing seats.
The exciting new Manchester padel club will host pop up events, DJ takeovers and an extended evening food offering.

And even if you’re not heading inside The Pollen Club, Pot Kettle Black has a grab-and-go hatch facing onto Blackfriars Street, making their delicious coffees, sandwiches and pastries (from their own bakery Half Dozen Other) even more accessible.
Commenting on the opening of the new site, Pot Kettle Black co-owner, Mark Flanagan said: “We’re absolutely thrilled to have opened our third Pot Kettle Black site at The Padel Club. This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the team.
“After ten years in the city we’ve been enjoying seeing some familiar faces stopping by for a coffee and we can’t wait to get started on our programme of summer events!”
Insomnia Cookies is giving away FREE cookies to anyone with these two names

Manchester’s late-night sweet treat spot Insomnia Cookies is dishing out freebies this week… but there’s a catch.
You have to be called one of two specific names to get one.
With the long bank holiday weekend upon us, those in-the-know will also have noticed that this Sunday isn’t just Easter Sunday, it also happens to be 4/20… and that means Insomnia Cookies is back with its ‘blazing’ £4.20 deal, giving you the chance to bag a box of four warm cookies while saving nearly £7 at the same time.
But even better still, if you happen to have either the first or middle name ‘Mary’ or ‘Jane’, then you can also get yourself a warm tasty cookie for free.
To mark both 4/20, and celebrate the launch of its newest strain of mouthwatering cookie, the Mary Jane, anyone called Mary or Jane can pop into either of Insomnia Cookies’ two Manchester city centre sites – Cross Street and University Green – show their valid ID with their name on, and walk alway with a cookie free of charge.
If you want to try the new Mary Jane cookie, then this limited-edition special is made up of a cookies n cream dough base, packed with rainbow sprinkles.
The freebie deal has been running all week, and you have up until 3am on Monday 21 April to take advantage of it.
Customers will be limited to one free cookie per day.

If you aren’t lucky enough to be called one of those two names though, then thankfully you can still make some great savings on a classic four-pack of cookies over the spring bank holiday weekend, and for every four-pack sold, £1 will be donated to Groundwork – a charity helping make Manchester greener for nature and for local people.
“We’re calling for Marys and Janes to join us to live the high life with free cookies all week,” commented Millie Ralston, Head of Marketing at Insomnia Cookies.
