A new bottomless brunch has landed in Manchester with a New York city-inspired disco twist.
Promising 90 minutes of endless New York sours and Cosmopolitan cocktails, sensational disco beats and voguing performances, the raucous new brunch party will be hosted at Ducie Street Warehouse (DSW) every Saturday.
Whilst Manchester is credited as the birthplace of modern clubbing, it’s in New York that disco was born. This new bottomless brunch at DSW pays homage to the city’s disco culture as well as others around the world.

A disco brunch on Saturday 26 February will mark the start of the party series, with a vogue performance from The Ghetto Collective, music from DJs Danielle Moore, Rebecca Never Becky and a live trumpet, plus a special host.
Food-wise, the menu has been created by head chef Andrew Green and will nod to the big apple with NYC-inspired dishes like steak and eggs and rainbow bagels.
Offering a mix of savoury and sweet dishes, DSW’s signature gochujang fried chicken waffles with maple sauce, peanuts, and sesame will appear alongside stacked pancakes, brioche French toast, and a special knickerbocker glory – made with Gooey cookie pieces, poached plums, cherries and Northern bloc ice cream.

On the savoury side think tofu scramble on sourdough, shakshuka, a signature ‘Tower Stack’ complete with Grandad’s sausages, crisp dry cured bacon, Burford brown egg, melted American cheese and potato cake, and a veggie-friendly halloumi and potato cake stack.
There will also be a variety of eggs benedict dishes and on toast options, which choices including mushrooms, avocado and feta and chilli, Burford Browns and sumac.
Bottomless cocktaila and dishes will be available to order in the lounge every Saturday, but it’s on the last weekend of the month the warehouse will really kick things up a notch with a full-blown party.

The DSW restaurant will be transformed into beautiful surroundings with sounds from the finest DJs from 1pm until 4pm, before the decks are moved back into the lounge for the party to continue long into the night.
The brunch menu is available starting from this Saturday, 27 February, 11am until 4pm, priced at £40 per person, which includes bottomless Cosmopolitans or New York sours and a brunch dish.

Jet2 and Greggs is offering Mancs the chance to win a luxury holiday for the price of a sausage roll
Thomas Melia
Jet2 has teamed up with Greggs to announce a new competition where you can win a holiday for the price of a sausage roll.
If you didn’t know by now, ‘Nothing beats a Jet2 Holiday’, and as the British budget airline launches its latest collaboration where you can win a holiday for the same price as a sausage roll, we’d say that’s pretty accurate.
Fancy laying down in the scorching heat and baking yourself just like a trusty Greggs sausage roll? Well it’s a good thing these two iconic companies have teamed up then, because now you can do just that.
Jet2 and Greggs are giving away a three-night all-inclusive holiday to Marbella for the same price as everyone’s flaky-pastry favourite priced at £1.30.
In a video shared to social media, internet personalities Charley Marlowe and Luke Hamnett announced this brand-new offer in an extremely on-brand way.
The video sees the pair taking on very different roles, quite literally, as Hamnett dresses as a sausage roll while Marlowe tries her hand as a cabin crew member.
This exclusive campaign sees you in with the chance of winning a three-night all-inclusive holiday to the luxury Spanish destination, staying at Iberostar Selection Marbella Coral Beach from 2 October – 5 October 2025.

On top of this, you’ll also get a handful of Jet2 and Greggs co-branded goodies sent to your door before take-off, and there may even be a present or two in your hotel room as well.
I think it’s safe to say there certainly will be carbs in Marbs.
Police ‘stop and search’ powers authorised following double stabbing in Piccadilly Gardens
Emily Sergeant
Section 60 ‘stop and search’ powers have been introduced in Manchester following a double stabbing in Piccadilly Gardens last night.
Beginning this morning (Thursday 3 July) and set to be in place for 24 hours, Greater Manchester Police (GMP) has authorised a section 60 in the city centre, with powers effective on Ring Road between Great Ancoats Street and Trinity Way, and Irwell Street between Trinity Way and New Quay Street.
Police will have the right to stop and search anyone they have suspicions over within the area during the authorised time frame.
The section 60 powers come under the 1994 Criminal Justice and Public Order Act, and after having run for the full 24 hours, is set to expire at 12:53am on Friday 4 July 2025.
The section 60 authority comes after GMP says it received multiple calls of an ‘ongoing disturbance’ where weapons were ‘seen and had potentially been used’ in Piccadilly Gardens, and when officers attended the scene, they found two men – one in his 20s and another in his 30s – both with stab wounds.
#INCIDENT | This morning (Thursday 3 July 2025), we authorised a Section 60 authority in the outlined area of the city centre.
The Section 60 is in place following a double stabbing in Piccadilly Gardens at around 12.50am.
— Manchester City Centre Police (GMP) (@GMPCityCentre) July 3, 2025
Both men remain in hospital at this time – with one receiving ongoing treatment, and the other remaining in critical condition.
No arrests have been made at this stage, and investigations are ongoing.
“The Section 60 authority put in place overnight gives officers additional powers which will be utilised to prevent any further incidents or the carrying of weapons,” commented Chief Inspector Rob MacGregor, from GMP’s City Centre division.
“There will be a significant presence of officers, particularly on foot patrol in the area today.
“If you have any concerns or any information, then please speak to those officers who will reassure and respond to any queries.”
CI MacGregor added that Section 60 powers are ‘crucial’ to preventing potential further offences or instances of violence in the community.
Anyone with information or footage relating to this incident is urged to contact GMP on 101, quoting log 71 of 03/07/2025, or report it via the LiveChat online at www.gmp.police.uk.
Alternatively, you can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
