Love disc-shaped dough dishes? Run don’t walk to Levenhulme’s finest neighbourhood bar, Nordie, where Soap Street Pizza serves up some of South Manchester’s best cheese ‘n’ carb concoctions. 

Soap Street Pizza’s co-owners are Harris Mouridis and Oddie McClintock, who you’ll have met if you spent any amount of time in and around the Northern Quarter in the 2010s. Between them, they’ve dealt with your drunken state at everywhere from Common to Trof NQ

So that means they know what the older, less messy you wants, and, believe you me, you want pizza cooked “low and slow”, with a perfectly crispy bottom (as Noel Edmonds said to the bishop). 

Put simply, it’s very, very good pizza. A nice balance of toppings with no tiresome clickbait nonsense, set on dough that holds up under pressure but rips apart like the best. 

The Green One is a good example of the care and attention put into things. Where lesser pizza places just stick some fake cheese and mushrooms on dough and call it a day, here you get courgettes, courgette cream, chive, lemon zest, black and white sesame seeds and a plant-based take on stracciatella that stands up marvellously well next to the lactose equivalent. 

Don’t worry, meatheads, there’s plenty for you too. The mortadella has pistachio-infused paper-thin strips of that mouthwatering fatty sausage, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, full-dairy stracciatella and big handfuls of peppery rocket. Again, the flavours are balanced, memorable and make a superb pairing with that next-level base. 

There’s also an outrageously good offer on Tuesdays and Wednesdays: eat in and get a pizza for a time-travelling £7. Choose from The Marinara, The Margherita or The Ploughman’s and relive your youth, when eating out was cheap and you could smash umpteen beers on a schoolnight, easy.

Soap Street Pizza say their mission is to “make crispy pizza the new norm”, and while they missed a trick by not going down the Make Pizza Great Again route (who among us wouldn’t buy that red hat?), this is one new normal that we’re fully behind.
