Manchester’s already impressive kebab scene is set to be joined by a new döner restaurant and, guess what?

They’ll be giving out free kebabs to celebrate their arrival.

Döner Shack, which has enjoyed tremendous success in its flagship venue in Leeds Trinity Kitchen, will be taking over a venue in the Arndale’s Halle Place later this month.

The restaurant has become popular for it’s authentic Berlin-inspired kebaps, which all contain twice the amount of lean meat you’d find in your standard kebab from the local takeaway. There’s also no artificial fillers or excessive oils; just good quality meat and ingredients to make the perfect kebap.

Alongside Döner, Chicken Shawarma and freshly baked artisan bread, there will also be currywurst, halloumi, falafel and vegan schnitzel on the menu, all of which will be priced between £6 and £9.

On the drinks front, there will be a selection of milkshakes, soft drinks and German beers on tap – because it wouldn’t be a proper kebab experience without an abundance of German booze, would it?

The co-founder and managing director of Döner Shack Sanjeev Sanghera, said on the Manchester venue: “We can’t wait to introduce the people of Manchester to an authentic taste of the Berlin döner kebap filled with quality meats, fresh salad and our delicious signature sauces.

“We feel incredibly excited to be opening in Manchester Arndale, and understand, now more than ever, that people don’t want to compromise when it comes to quality, taste and their dining experience.”

He added that his mission is to change people’s perceptions of the kebab and show that it doesn’t need to be exclusive to those drunken walks home.

He said: “Whether that’s a snack while shopping, a quick grab and go during a busy lunch break or a fun evening with a group of friends. It’s time for a new generation of street food and we’re thrilled to be leading the way”.

And to celebrate their restaurant opening on Monday November 25th, Döner Shack will be giving out free kebabs between 11am-3pm for anyone who wants one. Get it in your dairies.

Manchester's Finest Group

Louisiana-style fried chicken chain Popeyes has announced plans to open more restaurants this year, including a second site in Greater Manchester – which opens tomorrow, Friday April 26th.

The chain opened its 33rd UK site in Piccadilly Gardens in October last year, which proved an instant hit with visitors forming queues along the street and around the corner just to sample its classic Southern fried chicken.

Regular customers have learned to take early lunches to avoid the rush as it fills up with hungry people every day.

Manchester’s Finest Group

Now its new drive-thru, located on Bury New Road, is opening tomorrow, Friday April 26th, with both the doors and lanes officially opening from 11am.

Greater Manchester and the North West’s first drive-thru location, the restaurant will mark the brand’s 11th opening in 2024 and 47th site in the UK.

And of course, they’re giving away FREE chicken on opening day, with the first three people queuing both on-foot and in cars winning free Chicken Sandwiches for a whole year.

As well as that, the first 25 customers in both queues will also be rewarded with a free Chicken Sandwich and exclusive Popeyes merchandise.

Popeyes UK

You’ll have to get there early if you want to be one of the first three, however, as fans queued for more than 16 hours when the Piccadilly Gardens site opened last year.

And from Saturday, April 27th, you’ll also be able to grab breakfast at the new restaurant.

The ‘Brekkie’ menu features British Breakfast classics with a New Orleans twist, like the Big Cajun Breakfast Roll, Cajun Hash Browns and Nutella-topped buttermilk biscuits.

Breakfast will be available until 11am every day, and will even include a Bacon Roll Meal for just £1.99, which includes a Bacon Roll, a Hash Brown and a drink.

Popeyes UK

For those who have not yet had the pleasure of sampling Popeyes’ crunchy flavoursome goodness, its menu features classic offerings like the Chicken Sandwich, with signature 12-hour marinated chicken and original Southern biscuits and gravy. 

Additionally, a variety of side dishes like mac & cheese, mash with Cajun gravy, and original biscuits will be served, alongside milkshakes in various flavours including vanilla, chocolate, mocha, and specialities like Oreo, Lotus Biscoff, and strawberry cheesecake.

What’s more, fans across the UK can now start their day with a Cajun twist – with Popeyes Breakfast Menu now available nationwide.

Manchester’s Finest Group

Tom Crowley, Popeyes UK Chief Executive Officer, commented: “Following the success of our Manchester Piccadilly restaurant, we are thrilled to bring our newest Popeyes to Bury New Road, marking our third restaurant in the North West.

“Our new restaurant will also be a Drive-Thru, meaning customers in Greater Manchester can enjoy our Famous Louisiana Chicken by dining in, via the Drive Thru lane, or by ordering online for kerbside collection.

“Our most recent openings have been some of the biggest to date, not just in the UK but for Popeyes globally, and we’re confident that Bury New Road will be just as popular.”

If you fancy winning free Chicken Sandwiches for a year, but don’t have time to queue up outside the new restaurant, then keep your eyes peeled on our Instagram tomorrow, Friday April 26th, as we’re going to be running a competition where you can win just that!

T&Cs: Offer entitles the holder to 3 free Chicken Sandwiches per week for 52 weeks. The 12 months starts on receipt of the email containing the first 3 links. Available in any Popeyes Louisiana Chicken UK restaurant, only on our Classic or Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Non transferable, not valid in conjunction with any other offer. Offer is redeemable only when you order online for collection through our website. Over 18s only.
