A food hall in Manchester has launched a bottomless brunch menu spanning all five of its eateries, meaning you can tuck into everything from pizza and sushi to fried chicken and burgers whilst going bottomless at the bar – all under one roof.
Available at Society, located just off St Peter’s Square, the new bottomless brunch offer includes two hours of endless drinks from its massive selection of craft beers, not to mention prosecco, ciders, and cocktails like mimosas, Aperol spritz and bloody Marys.
Simply choose a dish from the indie street food trader of your choice, then get stuck into unlimited drinks from the bar by showing your meal receipt (and paying an extra £25) at the bar.

Right now, you’ll find the likes of Dokes pizza (from the team behind Elnecot), Yorkshire’s towering, hand-shaped Slap and Pickle burgers, and Indian street food heroes Chaat Cart in residence here – all slinging out proper tasty bits and pieces.
Personally, we’d recommend ordering the halloumi Frankie wrap from Chaat Cart as a must – served with gunpowder fries, it’s a crunchy, salty explosion of flavours that have stood the test of time, sticking around on Chaat Cart’s menu for at least six years now.

But that’s not all the choice you have, far from it.
There are also more dish options from Manzoku Street Food, which specialise in sushi and breaded Japanese katsu, and Yoki Social Table, which have made a name for themselves with their punchy bites of Korean Fried Chicken.

It’s a veritable bottomless feast.
Walk-ins only, there’s no need to book – in fact, you can’t. We recommend going with a group, ordering as much as you can, and sharing the lot so you get a real dive into everything on offer at Society.
There’s so much to choose from, this way you can explore it all – and for a bargain price at that.

The new Society bottomless brunch deal will be available at the food hall every weekend on Saturdays and Sundays between the hours of 12 and 4.30pm. The last orders are at 2.30pm.

More than 12 million Brits think Yorkshire puddings belong with your Christmas dinner
Emily Sergeant
More than 12 million Brits would argue that your Christmas dinner needs a side of Yorkshire puddings, a shocking survey has revealed.
The survey in question carried out by retailer Next – which polled a total of 2,000 Brits about their Christmas dining and tableware habits – has uncovered that millions of people stray off the beaten track when it comes to, what we can all agree is, one of the biggest and heartiest meals of the year.
It turns out, Brits like a lot of unusual items on our Christmas dinner plate.
Some of the most obscure finds the survey is that two million people admitted to eating onion rings alongside their turkey and sprouts, and a further 5% (3.4 million) Brits like tucking into a bit of seafood on Christmas Day.
A surprising 4% (2.7 million) of people admitted that they like to add ketchup to their Christmas dinner plate – with mac and cheese, chips, and sweetcorn also making the top 10 list.

If all of that wasn’t mad enough as it is, one of the most shocking stats from the survey is probably the fact that a whopping 1.4 million respondents even said that they wouldn’t consider it a Christmas dinner without the addition of baked beans.
But when it comes to Christmas dinner, there’s probably one debate that’s bigger than them all, and is still yet to be decided – do Yorkshire puddings belong on your Christmas dinner plate or not?
Well, 12.7 million Brits believe that they do, and we reckon a good chunk of that number is us northerners.
The UK’s top 10 non-traditional Christmas food items
Yorkshire Puddings (19% – 12.7 million)

Mac and cheese (3% – 2 million)
Onion rings (3% – 2 million)
Chips (2% – 1.2 million)

Sweetcorn (2% – 1.2 million)
Beans (2% – 1.2 million)

While previous research has shown that the most common items on a British Christmas dinner are roast potatoes and gravy, these latest stats reveal there are some people out there who just like to do things a little differently.
But no matter how you like to eat it, a delicious Christmas dinner is always going to be something to celebrate, right?
Popular bar chain The Alchemist to rewind back to 2010 with cocktails and dishes for £6 next month

One of the UK’s most popular bar chains is celebrating its sweet 16th birthday next month by winding back to 2010.
Money is always tight in January, right?
Once Christmas is over with, and so is the festive feasting and drinking, many like to use the first month of the new year to lay low and save some money back up – which is why The Alchemist is launching a limited-edition ‘2010 Revival Menu’, bringing back some of its most iconic early cocktails and dishes – all at their original prices from 16 years ago.
For the whole month, you can enjoy the curated throwback selection starting from £6, which i perfectly timed for a month of saving without sacrificing going out.

The 2010 Revival Menu includes the return of the fan-favourite White Chocolate Raspberry Martini for £6 on the cocktail menu, which was an early Alchemist staple, alongside other fan-favourites like the Colour Changing One and Virgin Pornstar, both for £6 again.
When it comes to food dishes for £6, you can tuck into a selection of different refreshing salads, while stretching your budget up to £10 will get you things like Chicken in a Basket, a Cheeseburger, and Fish and Chips.
Other iconic Alchemist cocktails returning for a fraction of the price next month include the popular Smoky Old Fashioned, and Dead Read Zombie – both for £8.
The Alchemist opened its original bar in Manchester‘s swanky Spinningfields district all the way back in 2010, and quickly became a popular and stylish destination with its high ceilings and industrial features, and has since developed into a much larger chain – with not only more Manchester destinations, but others across the UK too.
