It’s been a long, harsh winter in Manchester, but the days are officially longer, the sun has made its first proper appearance and best of all, Bank Holidays are back! This Easter weekend, Great Northern Warehouse is celebrating with everything from free pints and late-night happy hours to award-winning chocolates and idyllic afternoon teas.
Tucked away down its charming namesake terrace at the side of Great Northern Warehouse, The Mews is the place to be this Easter bank holiday. They’re kicking off summer early with the new unveiling of Jubel Peach on tap – and to celebrate, they’re launching the long weekend with 50 free pints on Thursday 17th April! It’s first-come-first-served and one pint per punter, so get down early to enjoy yours.
If you don’t fancy the new refreshing new seasonal draught option, you can sample their extensive selections of wines, cocktails and other craft brews to toast the first bank holiday of the year.
Throughout the Bank Holiday Weekend and beyond, our Pan-Asian street food hotspot Suki Suki will be slinging their signature ramens and sumptuous curry bowls from 12pm until late, perfect for laid-back lunches and night out pit-stops alike.
Why not mark the weekend by pairing your food with a budget-friendly tipple? Thanks to their ongoing Happy Hour, you can celebrate the glorious four-day break with £6 cocktails, £4 pints, 4 shots for £12, and 3 small plates for just £16! Happy Hour runs Friday and Saturday from 9pm to 11pm, so drop in for an Easter treat – whether you’re stopping by for a night cap or getting the party started, they’ve got you covered.
As always, our award-winning Dormouse Chocolates is celebrating one of the biggest weekends on the confectionery calendar with another festive line-up of delicious organic indulgence, including their immensely popular ‘flat eggs’, sold in milk chocolate with buttercrunch and dark chocolate with hazelnut and ginger. There’s also the last remaining Pancake Day bars, creamily crafted from mellow milk chocolate blended with crisp wafer feulletine pieces, topped with lemon infused white chocolate and maple syrup candy. Buy yours via the Dormouse website.
