Manchester Ramadan Buffet - Iftar at Zouk
The famous Zouk Manchester Ramadan Buffet returns on Wednesday 18th February offering the perfect way to celebrate Iftar with friends and family. Every day throughout Ramadan we’ll be welcoming customers to come and break their fast at Zouk with this fabulous spread of much-loved dishes. Our delicious Iftar buffet features a selection of starters, salads, carvery, curries, desserts, and a welcome drink of Mango Lassi. We provide all guests with dates, water, soup and a selection of fruit, upon being seated at the table so fast can be broken traditionally before enjoying the buffet.
Our Ramadan buffet is £30.00 per person for adults, £15.00 per child (under 12) and free for children under 5. Although we do accept walk-ins, we highly recommend booking in advance due to how popular our restaurant is during the Iftar buffet.
On Arrival
Customers will be greeted on arrival and taken to their table where fruit chaat, dates, Mango Lassi and water await. The soup of the day will be brought to your table to enjoy once you are seated. Guests are then invited to go to the buffet where they can enjoy the daily selection of food which will include salads, starters, curries, roasted lamb raan and a selection of accompaniments. Join us for our Iftar buffet for:
- £30.00 per person for adults
- £15.00 per child (under 12)
- Free for children under 5 years of age
As the Iftar buffet is bottomless, you are welcome to return to the buffet as many times as you wish and try the daily selection of food at your own pace. We recommend taking a little at a time so each dish can be enjoyed piping hot. Feel free to savour the dishes on offer while enjoying the atmosphere with other diners.
Our Iftar Menu
Our Iftar menu changes weekly, meaning that Zouk can be your go-to spot to break your fast with family and friends throughout Ramadan. This variation of dishes ensures that there will always be something new to try if you choose to celebrate Iftar at Zouk regularly over Ramadan. All our food is halal and the Iftar menu caters to all dietary needs, including vegetarian or vegan, making Zouk the perfect Ramadan restaurant in Manchester. Check out the weekly menus below.
Along with our large selection of curries and accompaniments, we serve a live carvery featuring our stunning Lamb Raan. For those looking for a lighter meal to break fast with, we have a stunning range of starters and salads. Our Vegetable Samosas, Chicken Tikka, Seekh Kebabs, Pakoras, and Kachumber Salad are all fantastic options which you can enjoy as part of Zouk’s Ramadan buffet.
If you would like to plan ahead, please check out the weekly menus below to see what dishes will be available on the date of your visit. You will have plenty of choice with the following number of dishes served as part of the buffet:
- Welcome drink - Mango Lassi

And don’t forget, we will also serve traditional accompaniments including naan, rice and chutneys to complement the above. Please see our full Iftar Buffet Menu at the bottom of the page for more information.
Ramadan Buffet Timings
We will have one sitting at Iftar every day but please note the time of Iftar changes slightly as the month goes on. This is because the timing of the daily Iftar prayer follows the changing sunset times throughout Ramadan. If you would like to find out more information as to when the Iftar buffet will be on a particular day, please speak to one of our team or consult the 2026 Manchester Ramadan Timetable from Islamic Relief.
FAQs: Iftar At Zouk
Have questions about our Iftar buffet? We've answered some of the most common queries below. If you have a question about our Ramadan buffet after consulting this section, please don’t hesitate to contact our friendly team
Do I need to book for the Iftar buffet?
We strongly recommend booking for Iftar in advance on our website. There is a £10 deposit required per person to confirm your place. Simply book the buffet the same way you would make a normal reservation on our booking page. Just add the word 'buffet' to the notes so we know this is what you are joining us for. You will notice it is not possible to book for an hour before Iftar - this is because it takes an hour to prepare the restaurant for the buffet.
Does the Iftar buffet allow for multiple servings?
Our Iftar buffet is designed for guests to enjoy a fulfilling meal. While there's no limit to the amount you can try, we encourage you to explore the diverse flavours our halal food has to offer. We suggest taking a little at a time to reduce waste and ensure your food can be enjoyed piping hot. We continuously replenish the buffet during our 90 minute Iftar sitting and the buffet is unlimited so all guests can take their time knowing their favourite dish will not run out.
Do I need to be fasting to join the Iftar buffet?
Everyone is welcome to join us for the buffet you do not have to be fasting to make a booking. This is a special time of year, and we welcome everyone.
Is there anywhere for guests to pray at Zouk?
Unfortunately, we do not have a dedicated prayer room, but we do have a small space at the back of the restaurant where guests can pray. Mats and privacy screens are provided.
Will I get my deposit back?
As covered, a £10 deposit is required per person. All deposits will be deducted from the final bill.
Charity Support
Every year throughout the month of Ramadan we work to support local charities. This ranges from donating meals to donating vital funds. In the past, we have donated hot meals and funds to the homeless of Manchester and to local Manchester hospitals. This year we plan to donate meals to the Islamic Society of Britain in Manchester to feed the homeless. Additionally, every year we donate Iftar meals to local Hospitals. We will also continue our donation of weekly meals to local charity, Two Brews. This Manchester-based charity does outreach to vulnerable and homeless people every day of the year.
