Beloved local pizza joint Nell’s and fellow Manchester favourites Burgerism are set to collide for an unreal collab that sounds like it’s going to be a Manc foodie’s wet dream.
No, we don’t mind being rude at all because this sounds seriously naughty.
That’s right, in a crossover that we can only build as the stuff of legend, Nell’s is creating a brand-new limited edition Burgerism pizza that will be available for one week only and if you don’t already know it’s going to sell out immediately then you’ve severely underestimated the pull these two brands have.
Simply given the name ‘Burgerismed’, it features a tomato base, shredded iceberg lettuce, shredded and smoked mozzarella, pickles, caramelised chuck beef from Littlewoods Butchers, and the signature and secret Burgerism sauce.

Yes, they’re quite literally building a gourmet cheeseburger – the most ordered takeaway in Manchester on Deliveroo (that’s how popular they are) on a pizza. It’s still bread, cheese and meat, just make it flat.
This glorious creation, unveiled in line with National Burger Day on 28 May, can be ordered in either 14″ or the legendary 22″ formats, but let’s be honest, we’re all going big and greedy. It is the Nell’s way.

As mentioned, the Burgerismed pizza is only on for seven very special days starting from next Tuesday (28 May) at the original Nell’s in Northern Quarter, their site Kampus and from The Beagle in Chorlton, so you best make the most of the opportunity.

Jonny Heyes, founder of Nell’s, said of the collab: “The combination of the two most important food groups on the planet, only to be witnessed for a short time here at Nell’s.
“Burger x Pizza death match, our dreamy dough combined with smash patties, pickles, lettuce and Burgerism’s sensational secret sauce. What could be better.”

As for Burgerism, founder and CEO Mark Murphy added on their end:“When I order food, obviously I only order Burgerism. But I’ve always wondered about the idea of a Burgerism pizza – our smashed, caramelised meat, fresh toppings, and unique Burgerism sauce on a delicious, doughy base.
“Burger or pizza is an age-old dilemma for many, but for one week only there’s no need to compromise and that’s what this collaboration is all about. And we truly hope the fans enjoy this limited-edition creation.” We’re absolutely certain we will.

You can get FREE sandwiches in Manchester this weekend – but only if you have certain names
Emily Sergeant
Hungry Mancs can help themselves to free sandwiches this bank holiday weekend… but there’s a bit of a catch.
You can only get yourself a sandwich if you have one of these particular names.
We’ve been enjoying some absolutely stunning sunshine across Greater Manchester and much of the UK over the past couple of months, and nothing says sunny days more than taking a packed lunch or grabbing a meal deal and taking it to your local park or greenspace for a picnic.
This is why Pret A Manger has decided to make picnics easier for those who are lucky enough to have a certain type of name.
This late May bank holiday weekend, the popular high street coffee shop chain will be dishing out hundreds of free sandwiches across the UK – including here in Manchester – to anyone whose name happens to start with ‘Nic’.
That means people called Nick, Nicholas, Nicola, Nicole, Nico, Nicolette, and plenty of others could be in with a chance of some free feasting over these next couple of days.

Here in Manchester, it’s the chain’s Portland Street site, just off Piccadilly Gardens, that’s participating in the free giveaway this weekend, and there’ll be 50 sandwiches a day given out, so you’ll need to be quick if your name starts with ‘Nic’ and you’re feeling peckish.
The offer is only limited to Pret’s freshly-made sandwiches, and unfortunately excludes baguettes, wraps, or rye rolls… but free food is better than no food, after all.
All you’ll need to do to grab a freebie is show your ID at the tills of participating stores this Saturday (24 May) to prove your name, and you’ll get to walk out with your lunch in hand, all without having to spend a penny.
Manchester’s Portland Street Pret A Manger will be giving out 50 free sandwiches to ‘Nics’ this Saturday, and they’re on a first-come-first-served basis.
