Parked up for free outside after 6pm, which is a winner, and the pizza guys were friendly on my entrance and more than helpful with picking different toppings. I went for 4 large pizzas- BBQ chicken, veggie, ham and pineapple and a spicy meat one, all with a kick of spice and hotness which was just what we wanted. I tried a 7 inch goats cheese and veg small pizza which was a great starter along with wedges and wings. The BBQ wings were tastier than those at a few specialised Wing places in Manchester! Very affordable for what you get, and all the girls were happy and full after we indulged in the whole lot. Now I'm at the gym running it all off .... 5 star pizza takeaway place!

Born from the genius and success of The Biospheric Project, 78 Steps is just around the corner…read more(well, 78 steps away) from the urban farming project which has taken Salford and Manchester by storm. The idea behind the shop is local food on a micro-scale, bringing the community in the area locally grown, ethically sourced and high quality produce. Stocking fresh fruit, veg & eggs from local farms, bread from the Barbakan deli in Chortlon and eco-friendly cupboard fillers from companies like Suma and Ecover, 78 Steps has a great range of British products, championing fresh local items and seasonal produce. As well at the shop itself, 78 Steps offer a Wholebox service, delivering fresh food to local people on a regular basis. Boxes start at as little as £5 and contain at least eight varieties of fruit and vegetables, making healthy eating cheap and accessible. Some of the fruits and vegetables have been grown at the Biospheric Project itself - just 78 steps away - making this a truly carbon efficient enterprise.

Situated inside the Premier shop on New Bailey Street, you wouldn't expect to find this little pie…read morestand, serving up some great pastry, potato & gravy combinations. Only a few moments from work, we have had Friday lunches from Pie Cottage a number of times - we ring in the morning, put the order in (a large order, of about 20-25) and then collect circa 1pm. The food reaches our kitchen hot and fresh, each box marked with the flavour of pie and either mash in the box or in a large container for us to dish out. I've had meat & potato and pork & chorizo, which were both tasty; the pastry is sturdy - you'd easily be able to pick it up if you wanted to eat on the go - and filling well distributed. Mash isn't my favourite but it's a nice texture, and I believe they only serve up meat gravy. Due to the small and indepdent nature of Pie Cottage, we often end up taking everything they have, so I would recommend avoiding if it's our Friday lunch! £3 pie & mash or jacket potato with filling 10-4 Monday to Friday.

When you work in a silo you soon get used to a diet of swill…read more So imagine my joy when I heard about Quick Karma - a Mumbai-style tiffin delivery service based right here in Salford Quays. The Karma team prepare a daily changing menu of authentic home-style Indian food which is delivered to your desk in a specially insulated tiffin. The meal consists of rice and chapati, a veg dish and dhal and a choice of meat of vegetarian main. And the food is good. Really good. So good in fact that it made me think of my Mum. Plus it's perfectly portioned so you're satisfied without the post-lunch slump. How much? A fiver. Yes - a fiver! For a proper plateful. You can barely pick up a coffee and croissant for that around here. Get some karma in your life.

I have never had eaten Carribeean food before. So when I saw this interesting looking takeaway…read morewhich just opened nearby my boyfriends place- I had to go in and try some authentic Jamaican dish. My boyfriend ordered the Grilled Jerk Chicken (which he liked) with Chips and I had the Beef Steak (stew) with rice & beans. I must say the regular size portion was big for me - just £5 - but the taste of this dish was just yummy! The rice was lovely well-seasoned and the steak was melting in my mouth. Gourmet Rasta indeed ;)

In typical "eyes bigger than our stomachs" style, we ordered quesadillas, nachos, burritos and chips. They were all excellent. And so filling. He burrito is a meal in itself. Bonus - the chips are brilliant. Chip shop style. Good service - just on time and friendly face at the door. Highly recommend.

There are a few tables and chairs on the inside and out, so you can choose to eat it. They serve some dim sum, rice and noodle dishes but the highlight is really in the special dishes, which you wouldn't normally find in a standard Chinese. I stopped by here at around 9:30pm on Friday 27th June and ordered a won ton noodles to go. Unfortunately, the won tons were really small, smaller than they used to be, and the skin was coming apart from the won ton. I also got food poisoning from eating this, so I won't be coming back now. This is a shame, as it was really good when it opened. I especially liked their soup noodle dishes and they used to do bitter melon with ribs :(
