Terrace Vibes

Brighten up spring and summer evenings in a space that feels magical when the sun goes down. Zouk;s stunning flower walls make the terrace feel cosy and intimate.

Owner Tayub Amjad describes why we just cant get enough of dining outdoors even in Manchester!  ‘The allure of dining and relaxing outside is something we all love. As Brits we love to be outdoors so we’ve made sure the Zouk terrace feels as cosy and vibrant all year long from the start of spring to the height of summer and even into the cooler winter months. Once you to step in the flowers transport you to a space with an enchanting quality to it. Leaving you free relax and shrug off the stresses of the day with some great food and drink.’

Alfresco Dining

One of the best things about our terrace is being able to eat outside and enjoy a spot of al fresco dining. The space is really relaxed and friendly and we’ve tried to design it as a little tranquil oasis in the heart of Manchester. Inside our restaurant has a thriving atmosphere with the buzz of the theatre kitchen and the hustle and bustle of service, while outside the space is a bit more chilled, with a holiday vibe.

The full a la carte menu is available outside including curries, grilled dishes, seafood and steaks and all our food is halal. At different times of the day, the terrace follows the same pattern as inside with special menus including tiffin lunch, pre-theatre dining and Sunday roast. you can even just pop in for drinks in the evening or a coffee and cake any time of day. Zouk has an in house pastry chef with a huge selection of cakes, bakes, cookings, desserts and puddings in offer.

Opening Times

The terrace is open for outside dining 365 days a year. Tables are available from 9:00am to midnight each day. We don’t take reservations for outside therefore, it is walk ins only for this space.

Flower Wall

Our signature flower wall is the centrepiece of the terrace.  It creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere and is a fabulous selfie spot too. It changes throughout the year to reflect each season so there is always something new to discover on the terrace.  Every month we run a photo competition on our social media. Be sure to tag us in your photos with #youhadmeatzouk or #zoukteabar for your chance to win.  Lucky winners get to enjoy a meal for two on the house with drinks when they next visit.

All Weather Features

Our terrace features state-of-the-art technology. This includes an electric roof which can open fully during sunny spells. It can also be swiftly closed as required. This proves handy in a city like Manchester, where the rain is never far away. We also have numerous heaters, and warming blankets to keep the space cosy during cooler months.

Shisha

Shisha is available daily on the terrace from 12 noon to midnight. As there is smoking and shisha permitted in Zouk Manchester’s outside terrace, the whole area is strictly for those aged 21 and over.  This means that unfortunately we cannot permit families with children to dine on the terrace, however, children are always welcome inside the restaurant.

Our shisha starts from £20 and we would recommend one shisha for every two people in a party. All our shisha pipes are thoroughly cleaned after every use. We also provide disposable tips for every guest. There are a variety of shisha flavours available, and we also offer special blends and pineapple shisha heads. Your waiter will be able to give details of what is available during your visit. When making a booking to dine inside the restaurant, we recommend that if you wish to have shisha outside after your meal you put add this to the notes when booking so the team can prepare a table outside after your meal.
