And companies booking the three-course festive menu for 50 people or more will be given a free bubble drinks reception to get their party off to a celebratory start.
James Martin Manchester is one of the biggest restaurant openings of the year. The food is traditional British and it's all catered by the celebrity chef from the BBC's Saturday Kitchen and James Martin's Food Map of Britain.
