Winter break is over & time to prep...

I like the winter lull in street food.  It fits with my preference for getting cosy by the fire and plotting new dreams and schemes.  And there's lots of plotting afoot for 2014...

We've moved into a new prep kitchen in Manchester.  This is a very exciting time for us as we can now grow our capacity in lots of ways.  So watch this space for updates on our new developments.

We re-open at The Beech Inn on Thursday 30th January, with a revised winter menu and a brand new delivery service. Yes, you heard that right! We'll deliver gourmet street food inspired dishes along with fine cask ales right to your door.  We thought it was about time someone started delivering quality food and then thought, why not some fine ale to go with it.  Why not indeed!



The menu will be available online, on our main website and also posted here on the blog, Twitter and our Facebook page, to help keep customers up-to-date with the ever changing menu.  To start, we will be delivering within a 1 mile radius of the pub.

New opening hours at the pub:
Thurs & Fri 5-10pm
Sat & Sun 12-10pm

Delivery 07591 984 655 (6 til 10pm Thursday to Sunday every week)

  1. We are planning a motorbike trip around the UK and having read this I think Manchester has got to be on route because I am drooling as I read your exciting post. Snowing here today so have posted a good recipe to keep warm - would welcome any thoughts on a vegetarian alternative to minced beef?
