Food, drink and retail neighbourhood, Hatch on Oxford Road has re-opened after the lockdown, serving up takeaways, dishing out haircuts and offering up a load of gift ideas for Christmas from Tuesday – Saturday every week between 12pm and 8pm.
In line with Tier 3 restrictions Hatch will be bringing an alternative festive shopping experience to the city centre with all of the neighbourhood’s excellent local and independent businesses opening their doors just in time for Christmas.
The site has been transformed from urban summer escape to cosy winter wonder-village and offers a unique, twinkly and festive shopping experience nestled underneath the Mancunian Way.
This Saturday 5th December is ‘Small Business Saturday’ and Hatch will be rewarding customers shopping from any of their indie traders by handing out Hatch gift vouchers as spot prizes. The vouchers will be assigned totally at random throughout the course of the day and there’ll be £100 worth given away. All shoppers need to do to be in with a chance of winning a voucher is to buy local and independent at Hatch on Saturday!
