Menus Built Around Your Day

From slow-cooked BBQ and wood-fired pizza to sharing tapas and whole-roast feasts, every Follow The Smoke menu is built around your Manchester venue, your guest list and what you actually want on the day. We handle dietary needs, timings and full set-up — whether that’s a city-centre warehouse, a barn on the edge of the Peaks or a marquee in the suburbs.

Family-Style Feasts

Generous platters passed around the table. The kind of meal that gets a Manchester room talking — and going back for thirds.

It’s a Saturday in August next year. Venue near Didsbury, about 100 guests. A handful of veggies and one nut allergy.

FEATURED WEDDING

We wanted relaxed, sociable food that felt right for Manchester — nothing stiff or formal, just great flavours and everyone around the same table. Follow The Smoke absolutely nailed it. About 130 guests, a converted mill venue in Ancoats, and a feast that kept going all evening.

From the arrival canapés right through to the late wood-fired pizzas, the whole evening had real energy. Slow-cooked meats, sharing sides, everything replenished without anyone having to ask — and our guests with dietary needs were looked after quietly and without any fuss.

The pizzas made live in front of everyone were the moment the room just lit up. Proper theatre, incredible smell, and honestly the best pizza we’ve ever had.

We’d have them back in a heartbeat. Thank you so much.
