Concessionaire SSP has opened a restaurant called The Spinning Jenny’s Brew House in Terminal 2 (T2) at Manchester Airport. The concept was inspired by Manchester’s industrial past and has been named after the spinning machine that transformed the textile industry in the 19th century.
The Spinning Jenny’s Brew House menu features a range of BBQ dishes including 8oz pulled pork burgers, pork scratchings and buckets of chicken wings. The kitchen also features glass walls that allow diners to enjoy the skills of the BBQ chefs.
To complement the food offering, travelers can choose from a wide selection of cocktails including a Bloody Mary range, and beer pythons serve an array of craft and draught beers rising up from the cellar and dropping 45ft to a long bar.
Simon Smith, CEO, SSP UK and Ireland, said, “We have enjoyed a successful working relationship with the team at Manchester Airport for over 20 years, and we’re delighted to be continuing this partnership with the opening of this outstanding new concept.
“In the time we’ve been operating here, the needs of the passenger at Manchester have evolved considerably. The Spinning Jenny’s Brew House has been designed to reflect the very latest trends in modern casual dining and will give customers an inspired and exciting new location in which to relax before their flight.”
