PLY
Chris T.

I love PLY. Ive been in a few times now, Its basically a Pizza Restaurant/Trendy bar hangout, Its just a great place just to hangout with a pizza and have a few drinks with friends in this large open space, It feels like youre in a magazine of habitat or ikea with its cool furniture and layout, I love the chill out vibe to the place and its one of my fave places at the moment.

Margherita
Matt F.

I don't know how I managed to put it off for so long but it was high time I visited PLY as a paying customer after tasting their amazing pizza at the #pizzaoff! I popped in yesterday for lunch and was pleasantly surprised to see a lot of free seats and table space - meaning I could work through lunch and kill 2 birds with 1 stone! I plonked myself down on a tall bench and set off working away actually getting through a lot of work before I had my order taken (the only downside to my visit). I went for the Margherita as I wanted this to be a lunch of pizza purity without too much added flavour - it was brilliant - better than I remember at the pizza-off! I washed this down with a sparkling water and 40 minutes later I was on my way: work done, belly full and only £10.20 worse off than when I came in - pretty good value. As mentioned the service could've been slightly more prompt - but then again it was 1 girl serving the whole place so you can't be too harsh. I also didn't mind being left alone to get on with work!

I really, really, really like what they've done with PLY - at first I probably was a bit sceptical as the building outside really does look a bit bland and the name didn't exactly fill me with excitement but it's on the inside that counts and it's somewhere I really enjoyed my lunch at. The pizza was fantastic - sausage and broccoli all the way for me and this with a coconut juice came to £13 which I thought was pretty good value as the pizza was pretty damn big. The drinks selection is also quite impressive, especially the beers on tap (great to see Magic Rock Clown Juice on sale) Only bit of feedback I would say is that if they're going down the pizza route so much then some of the hipster staff could do with some experience on how to work in a pizzeria - I wasn't offered black pepper or parmesan and when I eventually manage to get some parmesan brought over, a giant bowl was dumped on my table with no spoon...then the guy ran off... Overall a really nice experience and can't wait to go back.

Swank fest

In need of something quick and tasty to eat, we stumbled upon PLY whilst walking towards Soup Kitchen (where we were thinking of grabbing a bite), so decided to take a leap of faith. Through the sets of glass doors it's light, bright and spacious inside, with a Scandinavian-inspired feel. Their large bar almost covers the entire back wall, sharing the space with their truly unique-looking wood-fired, mirror-tiled, clay pizza oven. I'm calling it the 'Delishco Ball'. There are plenty of tables, soft sofas and booths - some of the tables are around the edges of the restaurant on a slightly raised level so you can look out on to Stevenson Square. As the name suggests, there's a lot of plywood on view - especially the tables and the bar, but it certainly doesn't look cheap and tacky. On the menu are about a dozen sourdough pizzas (£8-12), and thanks to the oven are cooked in less than two minutes. We ordered three different ones and they were all very decent, though admittedly the Sausage and Broccoli Bianca was overly oily for my liking. For drinks, they have an Italian wine menu and also offer a number of draught and bottled beers and several cocktails. Service was warm and friendly, though a tad disorganised (we had to wait surrounded by empty tables for a few minutes whilst three staff members deliberated over where we could sit) - they also use tablets to take your order, which I've found tends to take longer and is more hassle than trusty pen and paper. A lovely new space for the city; you can never have too many pizza options IMO. Tip: There's a small book exchange library here.

Calzone
Tom I.

It's 2pm i come in slightly hot and bothered - disheveled you could say, like Columbo. I walk into ply; it's airy, cool (in both senses), contemporary and the food smells good. Spotting the pizza oven I order the Calzone with pepperoni and fennel salad off the lunch menu - just £6.00 and delicious. If you haven't wandered in yet, stop staring at the outside and go on in, it's very good and fairly reasonable price wise.

Very VERY good pizza in PLY. The place is such an excellent, large space, situated on the corner of Lever St and Stevenson's Square in the heart of the Northern Quarter. I ordered the Margherita pizza and some olives - I like to keep it plain and simple sometimes when it comes to pizza, and it was very good. The food was served very fast out of their 'disco ball' pizza oven and the staff are friendly. I haven't been in the evening, where I've heard it can get a little livelier at the bar, so i'll be sure to check it out for drinks sometime.

Located in the Northern Quarter, although not exactly a new boy in town any more its most certainly worth a visit. The restaurant floor is very interesting with a side seating area running high around the perimeter and a sofa area in the very centre. The menu was't the best choice in my opinion, limited and not spoilt for choice, which is sometimes a good thing for sure, but for me in this instance this time it wasn't, but I get it and thats a personal thing. The pizza base was fantastic, thin and not too crispy which is excellent, cooked in their distinct pizza oven, looking like the biggest ever disco ball you have seen, sat behind the counter (you will understand what I mean when you see it). With full table service, the staff was slow but professional. Nothing more to say really, but for me, I wanted a pepperoni pizza, but had the brunch special which seemed to be the nearest thing with an egg, which I asked specifically for a non runny yolk... they were not able to oblige!

Pizza yum.
Hugo F.

Unmissable space right in the heart of the Northern Quarter, the pizza here is stunning, plus they dealt so very well with my vegan gluten free friend. The staff are lovely and will even make good recommendations on wine or beer pairing with your food. I like that Ply's menu is not set in stone with items changing weekly like the Salami of the Week (which I have had twice now it is delicious), I am also a fan of there small but antipasti menu (the marinated vegetables are yummy). The white wine is good, and holds up against the strong flavours you get on pizza, which means your won't be stuck if your not a fan of the reds (like me). The space is welcoming and comfortable, there are sofa's, good tables and comfortable booths. I like that it feels spacious and comfortable in Ply, I find it is especially good mid afternoon on weekends as its is less full.

Courgette bianca: a pretty thing, with surprisingly strong courgette flavour
Josh O.

Ply's a great little place, whether you want a drink with friends, a quick lunch, or a 'proper' pizza. Always packed on the traditionally busy nights of the week, I like to drop in on a weekday. The bar is well-stocked with an excellent rotating range of guest beers. I've never seen such a hipster name as 'Flat White' for a beer, mind you. There's an inventive cocktail menu, which combines the short and strong with the tall and quaffable. Chilli, bourbon, apple and vermouth is a great mix; if you've got a very sweet tooth (think Love Hearts), you'll enjoy the Kid in a Sweetshop, if you can bring yourself to order it. The starters work well for nibbling and sharing, with quality ingredients. The recent addition of an octopus, caper and potato starter is one I definitely refuse to share anyone else, and is a delight for a seafood fan. The main event, of course, is pizza. There are a lot of giant wood-fired pizza ovens knocking about now, but the team at Ply make the most of it with some lovely flavour combinations. Bianca and rosso pizzas (solely mozzarella or tomato-based respectively) are worth trying, if you haven't. Fennel sausage and broccoli is a great pairing; onion, courgette and flowers really stand out well on top of a great mozzarella. The staff are always charming, and even when once I visited to find a missed delivery had left them short on stock, they papered over the cracks with endearing wit. Ply is among the best pizza places in a city that's fast becoming a pizza-lover's paradise. Put it on your list.

Mushroom
Andrew Y.

So last night was the first time I've properly mean to PLY. I did come before they were official open when they were giving away free pizzas. The pizza I had was OK but it wasn't a fair judge as by the time I got it home to eat it wasn't in "optimum" condition. So last night, there were 5 of us and we decided to pick a pizza each and then share them all. I picked the mushroom one. The others we had were a pepperoni and 'Nduja one (Vulcano), goats cheese, courgette and sausage and broccoli. Those last 2 were ones without tomato. They are tasted good. Maybe the courgette one wouldn't be my first pick if I went again but was still not bad. My favourite?? I think the mushroom one or maybe the Vulcano one. It was all washed down with a pint of Asahi beer. They have a few beer options in the menu and some specials. One of my friends decided to go for one of the beers on the specials board but the waitress mentioned may be worth trying it first as may not like it - she didn't like it, tasted like horseradish - It was a good job she mentioned - that was good of her. Its a big place PLY and I believe its one of those places that people go in NQ, use their Wifi, work on their laptops etc. Its a nice place to work (with the smell of pizza!) :)

The world of woodcraft, at Ply
Sam G.

Great space, good menu BUT my guts were NOT happy... Ply is a nice big open space up a few steps with big windows on two sides. On the Sunday we were there it was very chilled and nice and quiet. I'd want to come back at a busier time to see how much atmosphere there is on a regular night (it was pretty thin with only a few tables occupied). They've got an interesting rotating beer/ale menu but to be honest it all looked ludicrously strong - if you're only serving your guest beers in 1/3 or 2/3 pints you've probably got a pretty strong selection on your hands. The big, mirror ball-ed pizza oven caught our attention and the pizzas we ordered were actually really good. If I hadn't been up all night (won't go into detail), I'd be giving Ply 4/5 for sure.

Spicy!
Baz H.

So, I finally got around to going to PLY... It was an odd one as had only decided to go out for food after getting back from work+shopping and feeling crappy. Didn't wanna just get delivery so went for a walk and just as walking past PLY, I remembered that they had delivered pizza to a previous Yelp event and it was pretty good. Tried my luck... Payed off a storm. This was one of the best pizza's I can ever remember having... I had spicy 'Nduja' pizza that lived up to the term spicy, something that pizzas often fail to do, while not burning my taste pallet clean off. The atmosphere is fantastic, music at a good level so you can hear the people in your group talk but not hear other groups conversations. The staff were friendly and our waitress was very smiley and seemed very genuine, something I really appreciate these days as a bad waiter/waitress can be the difference between a lovely evening and a crappy one. I thoroughly recommend this place as it may have just become my number 1 pizza in the city!

Peperoni
Penny L.

After a recommendation by my colleague I came here to investigate their pizzas... Stepping in to what felt like a vast roller disco with students..we grabbed a seat. From the far end of the pit a waiter spotted us and graciously cleared our table and presented us with menus.. The cocktails were intriging and I bizarrely chose this kid in a sweet shop one which left me with a need to get a repeat prescription in insulin. The menu consists of pizza and salad..this place is reknowed for its disco ball clay pizza oven..so I had a salad.. joke..of course I ordered pizzas Right if you are vegetarian you are limited..I think there were a grand total of two toppings. Margarita..or a goats cheese and sundried tomato.. .if you love a fishy pizza then you are also scuppered..as they are fishless.. Anyway I chose the goats cheese Himself had the meaty one..these were epic...really tasty and good value for money. Overall I would come here for pizza, but maybe with a group and before 10pm as they turn this place into a disco..a very noisy place too, so don't cone here with any romantic intentions..

Cute interior of PLY.

I was FINALLY able to try Rudy's, even though the universe seemed to be against me the whole time…read morebut I finally got in. I've wanted to try this place for some time now, and every time I see people in Manchester asking about the best pizza places, Rudy's is always peoples number one choice. I made a point to want to go there on this visit, so I did everything I needed to do in the city, and then headed over for when it opened so I knew I would be able to get a table. A few people went in before me and the staff member was talking to people a little bit so I had a feeling something was wrong. When I got to the them, it turns out the pizza oven wasn't turning on so there would have been a minimum of 30 minute delay, I could be seated but they couldn't do any orders until the people in had sorted out the problem. I decided to go off and do something else (there's an amazing coffee shop around the corner so I went there for a bit) and then return when, hopefully, it was all fixed. I was gone around 40-45 minutes and when I walked down the street, alongside the extractor vents, I could smell pizza so knew it was all working. When I got in, there was a lot more people inside so it must have been fixed pretty quick and people were going for food. I got seated at the bar area, which was actually where a group of chefs were making the pizzas. I was in front of the one shaping the dough into the pizza shape. I felt a bit awkward looking at them so did it a bit slyly out the corner of my eye. They weren't looking at me so maybe it was as uncomfortable for them as me ... or maybe its just me being an awkward person at a new place. Looking at the menu there was a lot of choice. All of it seemed authentic Neapolitan pizza which Ive never had before so it was new to me. The menu was extensive and I decided to go for good old fashioned basic. HOWEVER, it turns out I ordered even more basic as I got the marinara rather than the margarita ... I did order that but didn't realise the marinara was without cheese. SO that was a shock at first but MY GOD it was delicious. Perfectly cooked and I could see them cooking it, perfect amount of garlic shavings and basil and the sauce and base was to die for. I can see why people say its the best, and there was a number of delivery or to take out orders as a staff member was constantly going out with piles of boxes. On the table where I was there was a tomato tin filled with the cutlery and napkins and a giant pizza cutter which I thought was pretty cool, so I was able to slice my own pizza into whatever sized pieces I wanted. Obviously I ate it how it should be eaten (in my opinion)... into slices and picked up and folded and it was great. I also got a jug of water before my order was taken which I love, and went for a simple blood orange san Pellegrino which came with ice and an orange slice. The pizza was around 9 inch I think ... a good size either way and all in all it only came to £10 which was a bargain. I will, for sure, return and maybe get some cheese on it this time ... and maybe mushrooms as the fungi pizza looked amazing (the guy who sat next to me ordered that) and when I can finally move up to Manchester, I shall order from there more often.

We enjoyed our experience at Rudy's. We were visiting from out of town and it was a relatively…read moreshort walk from our hotel. We went on a Monday around 3pm and there were plenty of spaces to sit inside and outside.The service was great...we never had to wait too long for anything and each employee was very nice and professional. They take food allergies very seriously and ensured that I knew was well informed of any potential allergens involved in their cooking processes. The pizzas were absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the Salsiccia and I ordered the Triple Pepperoni. The pizza's are big enough for two people to share, even though we each got our own. Our toddler came with us; however, they don't have a dedicated children's menu, and she really only likes plain cheese pizza from the U.S. So she only ate the one of the orders of salted crisps. But I was happy that they at least offer high chairs, which was much needed, especially since we sat outside which only has picnic table seatingl Overall, I would definitely recommend this place, you won't be disappointed!

We called into Noi Quattro for lunch after a friend recommended it, and found the place completely deserted. I've no idea why it was so quiet, but it is tucked a little out of the way and I suspect the nearby Mackie Mayor swallows up a lot of passing trade. The venue is large and modern, very nicely decorated. We were seated in the window which gave us a great view. The menu had a good variety of pizzas on it (several of which catered to vegans) and there were a couple of specials up on the board... I went for a mushroom pizza, Sparky went for an anchovy and olive one. Both were really delicious and we washed them down with a couple of beers. Pizzas here are truly authentically neapolitan - let's be honest, most people will compare these pizzas with those offered by Rudy's, and they are easily on the same level. I gave Rudy's 5 stars, and I'm giving Noi Quattro 5 stars too. The pizzas are really delicious and I really don't understand why people weren't queueing out of the door here like they do at Rudy's.

The pizzas were all well cooked and full of flavour. I particularly liked the base. The waiter was especially lovely to our 3 year old kid and went out of his way to talk to him about what he'd been up to today. The place was bright and airy and it had a good feel to it. There was one table with four swings around it. There's plenty of regular seating too. I'd definitely come again for a pizza fix.

Located in Manchester's city centre on Clarence Street, just off Princess Street and close to St…read moreAnne's Square, Croma is an "independent gourmet pizzeria", with a few branches around Greater Manchester, with this being their only city centre location. Having been impressed by their Prestwich branch, where I most recently awarded it a three-star rating (previously a four!), I decided to try this out after stumbling across Croma on UberEATS. Originally the app didn't allow me to specify gluten free - this is something which needs addressing however after a quick call with the store, the manager seemed friendly to assist and make sure my order was gluten-free and I could still get my food. The restaurant its self is an impressive old building, it is up a couple of steps to get in - which could be a problem for some. I ordered a Gluten Free Americana pizza, the pizza its-self was quite good quality, the passata was a little runny at times but overall the pizza was a decent pizza, especially for gluten-free, much beating most other takeaways I could have had including Domino. The overall prize was good too for delivery, my pizza came delivered the short half a mile journey to the Hilton Manchester Deansgate for £11, the delivery free was set by UberEATS and cost around £2.50 in that total. The pricing for eating in, however, is pretty much average, with it being a small restaurant they lack the offers which bigger chains do, meaning it could work out slightly more expensive than rivals, including (but not limited to) Bella, Pizza Express and Zizzi. The menu selection is pretty good too, if you like pizzas but maybe not so much for everything else. is this somewhere I'd order from or visit again? Yes, and it does definitely warrant a solid three-star rating, issues with pricing when dining inside, selection other than pizza including starters and sides, and the access issues mean I sadly don't feel I can go any higher than a score which would match Croma's other branch I've visited in Pretswich, of three-stars.

Aw I really liked it here!…read more For some reason I got totally ravenous at around 2145 and started freaking out about all the restaurants closing and could only think of this one nearby that might still be open so basically kept saying "Dogs n Dough" "Dogs n Dough" over and over again until Rana M capitulated and escorted me to that over-mentioned establishment. Inside was very American but sort of authentically (although I can't really tell anymore). There's a lot of dark green leather and a Rolling Rock sign. Owner/manager impressed me by saying they would keep serving until at least 11pm basically to do more business. EXACTLY. THAT IS THE CORRECT ATTITUDE. No hipster prancing about looking-moody-instead-of-serving-people-here. My small business heart was deeply gratified. Our server was also excellent, quick and attentive. They have what I will boldly declare as the best strawberry ice cream milkshake in Manchester and also a great looking list of cocktails that are £4.50 during happy hour and can be eaten alongside various delicious snacks. Food wise, the dogs, as Andrew Y. mentioned, have a rather odd hard outer skin but I actually quite liked that. I didn't realise my burrito dog would actually come in a wrap, but it was pretty tasty. Next time I want the one with Doritos. Or the Reuben. There's a lot of choice. There is also a MAC N CHEESE PIZZA whaaaaat. Sides: onion rings were giant, and good, and chilli cheese fries were as always a delight. Do not come here if you are on a diet. I will obviously be back here ASAP. FYI all the dogs are 100% beef.

And to be honest I've been meaning to…read moregive them a try for quite a while but only tended to remember about them when I walk past their neon lights directing them down Bow Lane, near St Peter's Square in Manchester City Centre, but it's usually not when I'm looking for food. This time I made a point of finally going to visit. I like that at night it feels a bit secretive being down a little side street, then down into a basement restaurant. Inside feels reflective of being outside at night too, with theatrical lighting, neon signs, and dark wooden furniture. One thing about the decor I particularly liked was the cartoon drawing all over of various hot dogs. When I asked the staff about these, they apparently originate with a guy who travelled all around the USA trying the speciality hot dogs, then drawing them as posters. What a job! It's a good talking point and unique as a decoration, I'll say that much! The atmosphere is friendly and cosy, people laughing and chatting whilst trying bits of each others pizzas and hotdogs. The menu has great tongue-in-cheek names for their offered dishes, and in the drinks menu I was happy to see that there was a large selection of soft drinks available for those of us who don't drink, including imported US sodas that aren't easy to come by here. It's so nice to find somewhere doing soft drinks other than the standard Coke/Fanta/Sprite fountain guns. We chose a root beer and a Dr Pepper Cherry Vanilla (although a Pepsi Cherry Vanilla came out, we didn't realise until afterwards because it was still pretty damn tasty). You're also given a bottle of water per table so you can enjoy your drinks rather than feeling you've rushed them due to thirst. Staff were friendly and enthusiastic, as well as knowledgeable of their product and environment. We were told how things were served, the types of pizza, hot dog sausage types etc, and when we decided to order some fries to share instead of a starter, the guy serving us observed this and told us that if we wanted to share the hot dogs that we'd ordered, they could be cut in half in the kitchen so we could easier share. That's a nice idea for couples and friends, I like it. I was very much considering the mac bites as a starter, but thought it best not to overfill before the main! We ordered the Kiev Fries, which were cheese, garlic butter, and herb crumb. Very tasty, and genuinely did taste like chicken kiev which gave me a giggle. We both took ages to decide what to have for our main, and instead of pizza we decided to go for the hot dogs. I ordered Cheesus Christ Superstar (heh) which was three cheese and caramelised red onion chutney. I was a bit surprised that the cheeses in question were melted slices of cheese rather than a sauce or grated cheese, but it worked, although I think a bigger serving of the caramelised red onion chutney would be better to balance out the cheese with the sweet. My partner ordered The Cowboy, which was house chilli, nacho cheese, crispy bacon, jalapeños and sour cream. He tells me that although it was very tasty, and the beef frank was great in flavour, it could perhaps have done with a little extra chilli. However, we were both impressed, and it certainly didn't come close to breaking the bank. So for good quality hot dogs in a pleasant atmosphere for pretty damn good value, definitely give these guys a visit! We will definitely be returning to try the other hot dogs, the starters, the pizza menu, maybe some of the drinks and th...in fact... well.. lets just say we'll definitely be going back!
