About Buzz Rock

Buzzrock moved from Jamaica to Manchester in 1976, as a young man aged 27. Whilst living in Jamaica he had a host of jobs working in hotels, restaurants, and local street kitchens. The origins of Buzzrocks began while hanging out with friends into the late hours, offering up his cooking talents after club nights in the Nile and Reno. It was at this time he got the nickname, which has stuck to this day, as friend would coin that his dumpling was kneaded tight like rocks! In the early 1990’s initially operating from a small trailer at events such as Glastonbury, Womad and Notting Hill Carnival. This lead to Buzzrock opening restaurants and fast food shops in Prestwich, Moston and Hulme. As a seasoned Rastafarian expect to find zero traces of pork and all meats are halal on the menu.
