This weekend, Great Northern Warehouse celebrates the longer days and glorious overindulgence of the Easter Bank Holiday with a wide array of unbeatable offers, irresistible dining experiences and family-friendly fun.
Ahead of Sunday’s scavenger hunts and chocolate breakfasts, head to the Alex’s Bakery website to order a selection of irresistible delights from their limited Easter range, including celebration cake, Creme Egg scotch eggs, cheesecake-filled half eggs, hot cross bun cookies and more. Simply place your order and pick it up instore.
As you’d expect, the award-winning Dormouse Chocolates takes the sweetest day of the year very seriously – head to the website or pop into the store to pick up the independent chocolate-maker’s funky twist on the timeless Easter treat, an organic egg tablet which comes in banoffee milk or dark chocolate, hazelnut and orange, available for £10 each. Alternatively, grab their breakfast-inspired ‘eggs on toast’ bar for £6.
For those who prefer savoury to sweet – even at Easter – Great Northern’s renowned restaurants serve a selection of sumptuous Sunday specials. Beloved authentic Polish spot Platzki runs an exclusive menu from 10am to 7pm, featuring ‘Pasztet’ – a delicious combination of duck and smoked Polish bacon pate served on freshly baked toasted brioche – fried potato dumplings served with crispy Polish bacon and onions, and traditional Easter dish ‘Jarzynowa’, a fresh vegetable salad served with egg, mayo and gherkins. Book your table here.
For an unforgettably sophisticated bank holiday meal, book a table at James Martin Manchester and enjoy a bottomless Easter Sunday lunch, with 90 minutes of free-flowing prosecco alongside corn-fed chicken or grass-fed Yorkshire roast beef with all the trimmings for just £40pp. Book your table here.
This Good Friday, Little Northerners invites families with younger kids for a free, fun-filled and wildly egg-citing Easter Stay and Play session, running from 1-3pm. Tots and infants can enjoy a “We’re Going on an Egg Hunt” storytime starring Peter Rabbit himself, as well as a dedicated baby area for the littlest egg-splorers. Just head down during the afternoon and drop into the playspace inside.
Throughout the weekend, grown-ups and kids of all ages can also venture along a colourful egg trail at the Mews, next door to Great Northern Warehouse.
Fancy a family-friendly big screen experience? Book your tickets online for Kung Fu Panda 4 at ODEON Cinemas and catch the latest delightful adventure with Po and his gang of martial arts masters with plenty of snacks, drinks and, of course, chocolates available at the counter.
