We headed down to Flight Club ahead of their Easter Bottomless Brunch offer to take a closer look at some of their drinks and games. Here is what we thought.

00:00Hello and welcome to Manchester World. My name's Theo Hewsonbet and Happy Easter.
00:04Now, here in Manchester there are a ton of great things that you can do to really celebrate this time of year.
00:08In fact, we did a video just yesterday on some of the amazing options that you've got.
00:12But we've been invited down to Flight Club, which is a place that's really taken Manchester and England, really, by storm since it arrived.
00:19And we're very excited that they've got an Easter bottomless brunch that invited us down to try it out.
00:24So me, Rich, our sports writer, and Jess, our brand new news writer, going to go down and give it a try.
00:30So this is Flight Club right here. You can see it perhaps most obviously from King Street,
00:35but the entrance is actually just around the corner on Brown Street, right through these doors here.
00:41So we're in position at Flight Club now. You're going to see some clips of us, probably embarrassing ourselves when it comes to trying to play darts.
00:47But when you book this bottomless brunch, this Easter bottomless brunch, you're booking a bottle of Prosecco each,
00:53or alternatively four beers, as well as an hour at the Occy and all the pizza that you can eat as well.
00:59But it really is a good deal. And Flight Club, as I say, has made a real impact on the city since it arrived.
01:04There is a TV in here that shows a live count of the amount of darts that have been thrown in this very branch of Flight Club.
01:11And while the global number stands at around 748 million at the time of speaking, in Manchester alone, it's 78 million.
01:20So over 10% of that. It really has become a really popular place to book a bottomless brunch or spend time with friends or a post-work party or something like that.
01:28And there's a very good reason for that. So, well, that's enough of me talking. Let's get into the darts.
01:34So, to start off with, obviously, we had to order some drinks and try and take advantage of the new spring cocktail menu.
01:40They do have a massive range of classic cocktails as well. And the food is obviously a great option.
01:46Also, we got these three cocktails, which were the Lady Luck, the Spring Fling and Matilda's Margarita.
01:53So, me and Rich did pull a quick switch over here because he realised he didn't like tequila that much.
01:57But that's fine. I'll step across.
01:59And, genuinely, they were all very, very nice. Very well done cocktails.
02:03And these are the pizzas. As I said, with the bottomless brunch offer that they have, you do get access to some great quality pizza.
02:08And these really were very, very good. It was around sort of 17, 18 quid per pizza on the menu.
02:14So you're saving quite a lot at this bottomless brunch.
02:16And then we're on to the darts.
02:18Now, anyone who's been to Flight Club before or Electric Shuffle, which is their sort of sister business that's more shuffleboard based,
02:23you know that there's a bunch of great interactive games that you can do for those people who perhaps don't really enjoy darts,
02:29just as a natural sport and want something a bit more entertaining to get their teeth into.
02:34Rich here was just about to lose his head.
02:35I managed to beat him very, very late on in two games, which he wasn't particularly happy about.
02:41But that's just the way the cookie crumbles.
02:43And you can see me here celebrating that checkout.
02:45Just look at the defeat in Rich's eyes if you get the chance.
02:50Yeah, there we go.
02:52So that's Flight Club. That was the experience that we had.
02:54It really was great. We can't recommend it enough.
02:56So get down, give it a try and follow Manchester World for more.
