The UK bar chain known for its colourful cocktails and its menus filled with different flavoured vodkas has announced it’s entering a ‘a new era of cost-effective fun and flavour’.
Revolution, which has two sites in Manchester, has said that it wants to make ‘nights out affordable again’.
Nights out are becoming a treat these days with the cost of everything seemingly increasing all the time.
Following a rocky period, in which eight sites were closed at the start of this year, Manchester-founded bar group Revolution are hoping this new batch of offers will make them everybody’s night out hotspot.
With the chain having two sites located in Manchester city centre, there’s double the chance to benefit from these deals.

That includes 50% off food for students, £5 pizzas and their already well-trusted and impressive bottomless brunch.
Drinks and shots will also be flowing more frequently with £5 doubles, £3.50 pints, and for those who are partying with pals (or just want to be double-parked) there are two for one cocktails.

This will include making cocktails and sampling their creations of much-loved classic cocktails taken from the menu.
To coincide with the ‘241 Cocktails’ promotion, the hospitality venue is releasing three new game-inspired drinks where you can test your luck.

Instead of a paper umbrella or a little sweet treat, this drink has a card attached to the glass which denotes two options, you guessed it, truth or dare.
Sticking with the card game theme, why not test your fortunes with the ‘Chase The Ace’, another red-toned drink which has a playing card as its centrepiece.
The final addition is not one for the weak, clubbers can now order ‘Chilli Shot Roulette’, one person in your party is about to feel the heat, literally.
Its bars across the UK will continue to play their usual array of club hits to soundtrack your night as you take on their latest deals.

Popular Manchester restaurant bar to give out FREE sausage rolls to people called ‘Greg’
Emily Sergeant
One of Manchester’s much-loved restaurant bars is doing a free sausage roll giveaway next week… but there’s a catch.
The catch being you have to have a certain name in particular.
It was only last week that popular high street chain Pret A Manger announced it would be slinging out free sandwiches to any Mancs with ‘Nic’ in their name over the late May bank holiday weekend, and now Tariff & Dale is getting it on the giveaway action, and it’s all to celebrate the iconic event that is National Sausage Roll Day.
In case you didn’t know – which is very likely, let’s be real – next Thursday (5 June) is the day dedicated to all things sausage roll.
So what better way to mark the occasion than with free portions of Tariff & Dale‘s legendary meaty treat?
The popular Northern Quarter restaurant bar is known for its creative comfort food, craft beers and cocktails, and laid-back industrial vibe, with one of the cult-classic dishes on its menu having always been the honey pork sausage roll – which just so happens to be a whopping 15-inches long, by the way.
Resembling something more of a pork wellington than a sausage roll, if you will, the dish is crispy, golden, and glazed with honey on top.
But to celebrate National Sausage Roll day, instead of parting with £9.50 for a portion or £48 for the full 15-inch thing, people with one specific name can actually get a slice for completely free of charge.

And that name is ‘Greg’, because if we’re honest, when it comes to sausage rolls, we all tend to think of Greggs.
So whether your surname is Gregory or Gregson, or you’re simply just called Greg, then all you need to do to claim your complimentary slice of sausage roll heaven is head on down to Tariff & Dale next Thursday 5 June from 12pm up until 9pm.
Make sure you show your valid ID proving your name when you order at the bar, and get ready to stuff your face.
Failing that, anyone not called Greg will just have to pop into actual Greggs instead.

Plans to open a brand-new pub on the site of the Rovers Return
Daisy Jackson
A brand-new pub is set to open in Manchester city centre net month, with treats in store like complimentary bowls of crisps, an outdoor terrace, and a games parlour.
The Stables Tavern is taking shape in the St John’s district, poetically on the same site that was once home to Coronation Street’s iconic Rovers Return pub.
They’re promising this will be a ‘historic tavern reimagined for today’s lover of a proper pint’.
The pub will come from Shiko Group, which is also behind Courts Club, where you can play tennis or basketball followed by court-side pints, and Side Street, a bar-restaurant-events space with a mid-Century interior.
Neighbouring the Bonded Warehouse, The Stables Tavern will join this rapidly blossoming new creative district, just across the yard from Caravan, The Trading Route and Aviva Studios.
Inside, punters will find multiple beer taps with local beers, served with complimentary bowls of crisps as well as a menu of pub snacks like handmade sausage rolls and local pies.
The pub will be split into three sections – an outside terrace, a main bar, and a parlour area at the back of the pub for live entertainment, old school games, and rounds of whiskey.
This might be a new district but it’s a historic area for the city – the same building was a busy watering hole back in the early 19th century for workers, merchants and visitors who made use of the nearby canals and cobbled streets.
It was then the home of the Rovers Return, back when this area was the home of Granada Studios.
Hayley Sammé, Marketing Director, said: “We’re so excited to bring The Stables Tavern back to St John’s. The area’s extensive historical backdrop and burgeoning hospitality scene provides the perfect landscape for a traditional British pub.
“It’s the perfect addition to the existing scene, and we hope it’s going to become a popular spot in our new creative district.”
The Stables Tavern will open at St John’s on Friday 6 June.
