MUSU, widely considered to be one of Manchester’s top restaurants, has launched a new scheme that will give customers a whopping 30% discount this March.
The luxury city centre Japanese restaurant has announced details of a new free-to-join rewards programme, which will give members exclusive access to discounts and offers.
MUSU’s exclusive rewards programme will give anyone who signs up (and places are limited) a special 30% off to use in March, on any of MUSU’s exceptional menus.
This includes the full Land of the Rising Sun tasting menu, which takes diners on a journey through four Japanese cooking styles available in five, eight or 12 courses and starts at just £35 with the March code.
And that 30% discount is applicable to MUSU’s acclaimed Omakase experience, where just six diners sit at the chef’s table.

Omakase translates to ‘I’ll leave it up to you’, and the chef in front of you will be entirely in control of what you eat, talking you through every fish and ingredient as it’s expertly turned into your dinner.
Then from April, the rewards will include 30% off food bills when dining at lunch, and 10% off food bills for evening sittings.

There’s even a 10% discount on private hire and private dining, with private meals taking place in a subtly closed-off dining area that’s proved popular with celebrities and Japanese food fanatics alike.
If you sign up for the rewards programme, you’ll also have early access to the restaurant’s special events, like its viral live tuna cutting experience.
This event is an homage to the historic sushi parlours in Japan and guests have been able to witness the traditional carving of a huge Bluefin Tuna – not something you see every day.

MUSU has also hosted events with other partners, like the House of Suntory, with specialist menus, cocktails and a total sensory immersion experience unlike anything seen in the UK before.
Rewards programme members will even be given a complimentary drink on their birthday.
And there’s even a monthly prize draw to win a 12-course Land Of The Rising Sun experience with wine pairings.
Within mere months of opening, MUSU had received rave reviews, including glowing praise from national critic Grace Dent, marking itself as one of the city’s most exciting openings.
MUSU’s Rewards Programme is now taking sign-ups, however spaces are limited. Sign-up at the link here to gain access.
Spooktacular Halloween trail to return to National Trust site Quarry Bank
Daisy Jackson
A Halloween trail is set to return to Quarry Bank Mill this autumn for one of the region’s most hauntingly beautiful seasonal events.
The National Trust site is a former working mill and one of the country’s finest industrial buildings – but as night falls and the shadows lengthen, a haunting will begin…
This year’s Halloween at Quarry Bank will again feature spooky light installations, a mesmerising laser garden, and a thrilling fire show, as well as live performances and seasonal food and drink.
Returning for a second year, Halloween at Quarry Bank will be an unforgettable experience for all ages.
Fog will swirl through the paths around the grounds, as glowing demon eyes watch over passers-by and giant skeletons loom over twisted trees.
If you’re brave enough, the trail then heads inside the mill itself, where creaking and clanking sounds of its industrial past hint at something a little more haunted.

As you wander the trail, you’ll pass installations like glowing fire spheres and catacombs echoing with whispers from the past, plus plenty more surprises waiting in the shadows.
Then you can refuel with ‘bewitched burgers and freaky fries’, plus hot toddys and decadent hot chocolates.
You can even toast a marshmallow over an open fire.
Halloween at Quarry Bank is designed for families, couples, and groups of friends alike, and attracts visitors from all over Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Merseyside and Lancashire.
Entry to the trail is on a timed slot system – tickets are on sale now HERE.
Inside the brand-new rental houses at Bolton’s landmark £35m development, Deansgate Gardens
Daisy Jackson
The first residents are in, and the launch of Deansgate Gardens – a landmark £35m development in Bolton town centre – is live.
This impressive new development has brought 167 high-quality rental homes to Bolton, creating a residential neighbourhood that features rooftop terraces, gardens, and stunning communal spaces.
The homes on Deansgate, Bolton have been built specifically for renters, with spacious layouts in an ideal location just a two-minute walk from Bolton Town Hall and a short commute to Manchester.
And, unusually for new rental developments, it’s not all about apartments here (though there are beautiful one- and two-bedroom apartments with rooftop gardens available).
It’s also somewhere you can rent two-bedroom townhouses, and have your very own yard.
Every home is built with energy efficiency in mind, with heat pumps and enhanced insulation, plus rooftop solar panels on selected homes, keeping those pesky bills down.
This pet-friendly development comes from developer Placefirst, and is a key moment in the wider £1bn regeneration masterplan for Bolton.

Deansgate Gardens is located just opposite the former Beales department store, connected by the train station, bus interchange, and town centre within walking distance.
These stylish new homes are built around a central square and communal courtyards. The result? Somewhere residents can relax, socialise, and connect.
There’s even a dedicated Resident Service Manager and 24/7 maintenance support for peace of mind.
And just a short walk away you’ll find parks like Queen’s Park, plus beautiful routes along the River Croal.
Ready to make these houses your home? Book in for a tour around Deansgate Gardens today HERE.
