While Christmas and New Year’s can be a glorious time of the year, the massive collective hangover you get on January 1st is definitely not.

If you’re one of the many people kicking the booze for Dry January but still fancy heading out and enjoying a cocktail then we’ve got just the thing for you.

You can grab yourself a free non-alcoholic cocktail all month long from certain Manchester bars.



Seedlip is the world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirit and it’s taken bars and restaurants by storm, replacing a boring ‘soda and lime’ with something that’s perfect for a wide range of cocktails.

And this January, Seedlip have decided to get together with some of the city’s cocktail bars to offer a free cocktail – no strings attached.

To get your hands on one simply head over to the Manchester’s Finest website and enter your email address, then take the voucher you receive to one of the following Seedlip stockists:

NAM
Common
Grand Pacific
The Refinery
The Anthologist
The Cotton Factory

Enjoy!

A Lancashire-based Turkish restaurant loved for its authentic cuisine is set to open a second venue in Manchester.

Ottoman Bar & Grill is set to be the latest addition to Manchester’s ever-expanding and bustling food scene.

Becoming the second site, it will open at Affinity Living’s Riverside complex situated on the edge of Salford, across from Spinningfields, making it the family-owned eatery’s first in the city.

The family already have a well-established venue in their hometown of Chorley that’s famous among locals – where regulars flock to sample dishes of authentic Turkish cuisine.

The restaurant will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner at its new Manchester location.

Opening in February next year, diners can expect menu highlights including the delicious chicken and lamb shish kebabs, freshly made bread and hummus and specials such as the lamb butterfly – as well as a delightful selection of vegetarian dishes.

The decor will feature elegant furniture against a striking colour theme with vibrant pampas grass, giving the perfect ambience to enjoy an exquisite dining experience for any occasion.

Ugur Ansin, director at Ottoman Bar & Grill, said: “We cannot wait to open the doors to our Manchester city centre restaurant in Affinity Living Riverside next year.

“We’ve built a solid reputation in Chorley for providing the best quality food alongside a second-to-none service. 

“My team has invested their decades of experience as butchers and working in Turkey’s top restaurants into Ottoman – creating a truly authentic dining experience.

“Manchester was the natural next step for us in opening a second restaurant, and we’ve got big plans to take our dining experience nationwide in the next few years. See you very soon Manchester.”

Diners at Morrisons café can also add a side of bread and butter for £1 and finish off with a sweet treat of Bramley Apple Crumble for £3.

Chris Strong, Morrison’s Café Buying Manager said: “Bargain hunting on Black Friday can certainly work up an appetite, so why not pop into one of our cafés for the ultimate catch of the day!

“A whopping 50% off our customer favourite Fish & Chip café meal. Available for one day only… you’ll need to be quick!”

The supermarket offered 50% off its fish & chips back in June and shoppers flocked for a fish supper which cost £3.49.

A popular pub chain is dishing out a free carvery to anyone who can finish its new limited edition dessert challenge.

Greene King has launched a new limited edition Carvery Sundae – which consists of a sweet ice-cream dessert smothered in lashings of hot savoury gravy.

The unusual take on a sweet and savoury-style dessert will be available for two Sundays only – November 26th and December 3rd.

Greene King

The challenge is available at 40 participating sites across the UK, including five pubs in Manchester. Those taking part will have to finish all of the the hot and cold dessert to win a free carvery.

Challengers will have a choice of two flavoured sundaes: the ‘Ultimate Ice Cream Sundae’ which consists of two scoops of vanilla and chocolate ice cream, lava cookie, Twix, Malteasers and Smarties. 

Or, the ‘Choctastic Sundae’, which consists of one scoop of vanilla and chocolate ice cream, lava cookie, Twix, Malteasers and Smarties. Either choice will of course come with a generous pouring of the brand’s own gravy to top it off.

Greene King

The pubs that are getting involved in the gravy sundae madness around Greater Manchester include: The Barlow Croft in East Didsbury, Beach in Littleborough, Bee Hive in Bolton, Mottram Wood in Hyde and Red Robin in Wigan.

Sophie Howells, Marketing Manager for Greene King Pub & Carvery, said: “The Carvery Sundae is the perfect balance of sweet and savoury, featuring two types of ice cream, and a wide range of toppings. 

“The hot gravy might not be for everyone, but it certainly makes for a unique experience.

“Best of all, if you finish it, you get your next carvery on us. Once you’ve polished off your Carvery Sundae, a team member will give you a receipt to redeem a carvery meal the next time you’re in the pub.”

To take part in the challenge and be in with a chance of winning a free carvery, customers will need to ask for a topping of gravy on their sundae when they order.

The limited edition Carvery Sundae is available on Sunday, November 26th and Sunday, December 3rd at selected sites only.
