Kimpton Clocktower events for March/Mother’s Day

Spring has come early to Kimpton Clocktower Hotel and its all-day bar & dining destination, Refuge, with a vibrant new menu showcasing the freshest flavours of the season.

Alongside this exciting launch is the debut of the Refuge Afternoon Tea, now available for its first full month.

Mancunians and guests to the city can now take advantage of the hotel’s new Stay Well concierge – allowing guests to use perks such as LED masks in the room and sound therapy for free!

Dog parents and their pooches can celebrate National Puppy Day with a sunday roast – including doggy ones too.

With World Sleep Day on 14th March, those laying their heads in Kimpton Clocktower’s rooms can celebrate the first full month of the new Sleep Well concierge – a tailored in-room service designed to help guests feel good, travel better and stay well while travelling available now.

The expanded ‘Forgot It, We’ve Got It’ programme now includes a wide range of wellness essentials, including foam rollers, LED face masks, grounding mats and even Theraguns, making it easier than ever to maintain your wellness routine on the go. For the ultimate post-wellness sleep, guests can enjoy Swell Sound Therapy, providing calming soundscapes in every room to promote better sleep and reduce stress.

With National Puppy Day on 23rd March, four-legged friends have their own answer to The Refuge’s legendary Sunday dinner – allowing them to dine in style alongside their owners. Comprised of a mini roast, the pet ‘roast bowl’ features a selection of meat, veggies, and a dash of pet-friendly gravy (no onions or garlic to worry about here).

Those staying over can book the PAWfect stay package and enjoy an overnight stay with breakfast, along with a full pet setup in the room, a pet tuckbox, pet guide to the best dog-friendly places to visit and of course a toy and treat or two. The best part is – all pets get to stay for free, and that will never change.

This Mother’s Day on 30th March, diners taking mum to Refuge can look forward to the signature Sunday lunch menu, with a range of elevated traditional offerings alongside the iconic Roast Platter for Two, featuring a feast of expertly prepared meats served with cauliflower cheese and all the trimmings. Enhancing the experience, Refuge’s renowned ambiance will come alive with the sounds of live jazz, creating the perfect setting for a special celebration.

And a bonus, every mum who books in on Sunday 30th March will get a free glass of fizz.

Just in time for spring, Refuge has unveiled its new menu featuring fresh takes on classic favourites and seasonal delights. Guests can savour the rich flavours of the Great North Pie Co. Lamb Suet Pudding or indulge in an array of small plates including Whipped Chicken Liver Parfait and Black Bomber Cheese & Leek Croquetas. Complementing the mains are irresistible sides from beef fat mashed potatoes to cauliflower bravas with must-try extras like chip shop curry sauce and 48-hour beef gravy. The experience is elevated further with Refuge’s new signature cocktails, such as Donny’s Marg – an artful mix of Reposado Tequila, Disaronno, citrus, chipotle, fennel, coriander seed and pink salt – or the Tisken, a bold creation featuring Sesame Oil-washed Tito’s, Italicus, basil, sundried tomato and fig.

Those looking for a special day out can indulge in the all-new Refuge Afternoon Tea, served in the breathtaking Winter Garden every Friday and Saturday – an ideal pre-Mother’s Day treat.

The new luxury afternoon tea experience offers guests a selection of loose leaf tea from Tea from the Manor, including a bespoke Refuge Blend.

Foodies are in for a treat – each experience will come with an exquisite spread of sweet and savoury goodness, made fresh and using local ingredients, in true Refuge fashion. Guests can indulge in polished classics such as truffled egg mayonnaise finger sandwiches and smoked salmon & pickled cucumber brioche, and sweet treats such as glazed lemon meringue pie and a selection of scones, of course!
