The pop-up restaurant on the square provides a Covid-secure space for local businesses that are restricted with limited outdoor dining space. The weekly four day takeovers allow these restaurants to serve up their delicious cuisine right in the heart of Manchester.
All diners will experience table service to reduce close contact and ensure social distancing to kept at all times.
On Great Northern’s restaurant on the square, Centre Director Mark Schofield said: “We’re so excited to be welcoming our next restaurant to the square this week. Impossible & South Manny Flavaz always serve up vibrant and delicious dishes, perfect for the summer, so we can’t wait to welcome more visitors down to enjoy a burger and a beer, or even just a cocktail in the sun.”
Impossible & South Manny Flavaz will be taking over the square from 12 noon Thursday 20th August till Sunday 23rd August.
The Great Northern is running this pop-up space as a non-profit venture to help support Manchester’s hospitality industry, which has been amongst the most badly impacted sectors during the Covid-19 crisis. Brands and charities can apply to use the space via the Great Northern’s website; there’s no fee to pay to utilise the kitchen – brands simply pay the electricity bill for the facilities – and the site is even offering the first keg of beer free-of-charge to give a head start for those setting up shop onsite.
