Double Zero opens beautiful first pizzeria in Manchester city centre

Finally, all our dreams have come true.

Daisy Jackson - 27th March 2024

Our prayers have been answered – Double Zero is officially ready to open its very first pizzeria in Manchester city centre.

Arguably the best pizzas in the entire region (and they have some stiff competition) are now available right in the heart of the city.

Double Zero has taken over a unit on Spring Gardens that was previously home to Lattsam.

The pizzeria is beautiful – sunny yellow and white tiles, retro Campari posters everywhere, simple wooden furniture, lots of plants, and (the star of the show) a huge tiled pizza oven.

With this new 80-cover site, they also have space for a bar area, a new feature for the venue.

Over in their original site in Chorlton, which opened almost a decade a go, the business has always operated a BYO policy.

But now diners will be able to order delicious cocktails like classic spritzes, negronis, espresso martinis, and Italian wines.

It goes alongside their huge menu of signature Neapolitan pizzas, with toppings like a truffle mushroom cream base with Italian ham and artichoke; a Miele Sizzler loaded with hot honey, ‘nduja, pepperoni, and chorizo; and the Partenopea, featuring a whole burrata as well as heirloom tomatoes and parma ham.

Double Zero ferments their dough for at least 48 hours, before hand-stretching the pizza bases and blasting them in the wood-fired oven for just 90 seconds.

The result is a perfectly floppy base with plump, chewy crusts, ready to be doused in their legendary homemade chilli oil (go steady, it’s spicy).

Double Zero will officially open its doors on Spring Gardens tomorrow, Thursday 28 March.

You can also order through Deliveroo.
