Manchester has a new bottomless brunch offer, and it sounds like an absolute beast of a deal – with bacon gravy-soaked burgers, fizz and pints galore.
Launched by the quality burger slingers behind Honest Burgers on Bridge Street, the new bottomless deal gives diners 90 minutes to indulge in non-stop drinks like buck’s fizz, cider, beer and prosecco – not to mention a dirty burger of their choice.
Spanning some solid veggie, vegan and gluten free burger options alongside meaty feasts like the special beef Wellington burger – a stunning combination of Honest beef, bacon, cheddar, béarnaise butter, crispy pastry, bacon gravy, mushroom duxelles, baby spinach and pickles, created especially for Manchester – the whole thing will set you back just £30.
Not too shabby like, if we do say so ourselves.

During your 90 minutes of non-stop drinks, you’ll also be treated to a burger of your choice and signature rosemary chips (described as “edible crystal meth” by Guardian food critic Jay Rayner) from the regular menu as part of the new boozy brunch.
Whilst we can’t help but feel drawn to the special Manchester Wellington burger, if you’re not feeling it other worthy candidates include Honest’s classic burger, topped with homemade red onion relish, smoked bacon, cheddar, lettuce and homemade pickles, or the chilli burger, topped with Honest beef, bacon, chilli cheese, Honest hot sauce, shoestring fries, red onion, lettuce and pickled red jalapenos.
Meanwhile, chicken fans can dig into a free range breast with basil pesto, mustard mayo, tomato and rocket, or the New Orleans-style fried buttermilk thigh burger with candied bacon, American cheese, ‘chow chow’ green tomato relish, Bulls-Eye chipotle hot sauce, ranch mayo and lettuce.
As for those who prefer a plant-based diet, choose from The Fritter (a southern-fried courgette and sweetcorn burger with cheddar, chipotle mayo, slaw, red onion and pickles), The Plant (a Beyond Meat patty, Applewood vegan cheese, Rubies chipotle ‘mayo’, mustard, red onion, pickles and lettuce) or The Bacon Plant, which is pretty much the same but with added vegan bacon and spinach.
Launching on 2 July, the new bottomless brunch will take place on the first Saturday of every month with bookings open now.
There are two booking slots open on that day, giving diners the chance of reserving a table for either at 12pm or 2.30pm. To seel the full menu and book your table, visit the Honest Burgers website here.

Nostalgic ready-to-drink Breezer makes UK return after a decade
Daisy Jackson
An iconic ready-to-drink favourite has launched back into the UK – oh yes, Breezer is back.
First launched in the 1990s, Breezers – then pitched as an ‘alcopop’ – were a staple on dancefloors and at barbecues right across the UK.
And now Bacardi has decided to bring these delicious, fruity, easy-drinking bottles back to British shores.
There are three new flavours to try as Breezers return to your fridges – Zesty Orange, Zingy Lime, and Crisp Watermelon.
And Breezer launched back into Manchester last night with a suitably memorable party, turning a spot in the Northern Quarter into a corner shop.
The ‘local Cornerbop’ was stacked with your usual essentials, plus shelf after shelf of these colourful glass ready-to-drink bottles.
Inside the Breezer ‘Cornerbop’ corner shop in ManchesterBreezer is back, in three new flavours
The Breezer relaunch party saw Tarsza and Rennie Peters spinning nostalgic anthems with a modern twist at a pop-up party in a corner shop.
Steve Young, business unit director for Bacardi in the UK & Ireland, said: “We know there is a lot of love for Breezer in the UK, and we are confident a new generation of consumers will fall in love with the new Breezer.
“RTDs are booming, however, the Flavoured Alcoholic Beverages category could do with a bit more excitement. By bringing back Breezer we’re definitely putting the fruity taste into FAB.”
The iconic ready-to-drink classic is back – and better than ever.
Drinks prices for Manchester Oasis gigs announced – and you’ll be pleasantly surprised
Daisy Jackson
The prices of drinks at Heaton Park for the five huge Manchester Oasis shows have been released in advance.
With the Gallagher brothers reuniting on stage in their hometown for the first time this weekend (and then again next week), it’s a huge moment for our city.
Those lucky enough to snag tickets have already forked out a small fortune to witness this moment in history (still scarred from the dynamic pricing debacle).
And most of us were probably bracing to spend another small fortune on beers at the Oasis Manchester gigs.
But you might be pleasantly surprised at the drinks prices up at Heaton Park for Oasis Live ’25.
It’s now been confirmed that pints of lager and cider will be just £6.50.
Before you turn your nose up, remember that pints at our two arenas – the AO Arena and Co-op Live are now sitting around the £9 mark.
Prices for other drinks, like wine and spirits, we’ll have to wait until Friday to see.
Heaton Park will also be the home of the ‘largest beer garden’ and the longest bars in the city for the Oasis reunion.
With a major heatwave predicted for the first shows, fans are being encouraged to stay hydrated (on WATER, not beer, please).
Ticket-holders will be allowed to bring a sealed bottle of water up to 500ml in with you, but it must be collapsible plastic.
Solid plastic and metal containers will be rejected on safety grounds.
There’s a free water point on site where you can fill up your bottles again.
Oasis will perform at Heaton Park in Manchester on 11, 12, 16, 19 and 20 July.
