Vegan Italian restaurant from Brighton, opened this Manchester Northern Quarter branch in spring 2021. Menu features a wide variety of dishes ranging from sourdough pizzas and calzones to pastas, and sides alongside a large drinks list including cocktails. For dessert try the tiramisu. Many dishes are available as gluten-free. Cashless buisness. Open Mon-Thu 12:00-22:00, Fri-Sat 12:00-23:00, Sun 12:00-22:00.

Fantastic Experience - Edit
My wife and I were blown away by Purezza. Since becoming vegan I have struggled to find a pizza that hits the spot but Purezza does just that. No more marinara pizza for me!
Read moreI also had a tiramisu which was delicious. I’ve not had a tiramisu since being vegan and would definitely recommend.

Amazing vegan food - Edit
We got the meatballs, 4 cheese pizza, and the truffle pizza, and it was all brilliant. So lovely to be able to read the whole menu and get anything. Can't wait to go back!

Lovely restaurant, just like the other locations. We were able to get our hands on a jar of vegan Nutella here! The actual Nutella brand made plant based. 🙂

Nice Pizza - Edit
It's amazing to have many options! The dough is really nice and the toppings are tasty. Never had anything other than pizza at Purezza but other dishes and deserts sound delicious. Pizza arrived a bit cold and it is pricey hence 4/5

lasagna? on my pizza? - Edit
looks a bit sus from the outside as not much suggestion it's a fully vegan establishment. it's cozy inside though and the staff are friendly. I had the lasagna pizza which was wet, but so delicious it has to be not only forgiven, but embraced

Top Pizza - Edit
It is fairly uncommon to find the very traditional Marinara pizza on a menu in the UK, Purezza adds garlic slithers which only add to the rich and flavoursome tomato sauce.

Great pizza, shame about the extra charges - Edit
Really delicious pizza with a light and crispy base. Had parmigiana party and the pepperoni, both were great and pepperoni was my fave. Downside is they automatically ask 12.5% service charge to your bill, which you need to ask to remove. They also charge 49p for processing your card when there is no option to pay by cash. They should absorb the cost when it’s their choice to be cashless. Then they also ask if you want to add a tip which is pretty cheeky.
Read morePros: Great pizza, Friendly service , Nice interior
Cons: Service charge 12.5%, Charge for paying by card

Food good, sketchy payment app with fees - Edit
I've been to the branches in Brighton and Camden so knew the food is good. Did not disappoint. However when it came to pay we were given a QR code which took me to a site to pay ("sundayapp"). It asked for a tip and 49p "platform fee". I refused the tip because of this but then found I'd been charged 12.5% service charge anyway. Surely that service charge should pay for the tips and this weird payment system? Really disappointed to see Purezza double dipping like this. Felt scammed.

Pros: Food good
Cons: Sketchy app to pay, Hidden fees, Slow service

Rushed here as soon as it hit 12 - Edit
I’ve been to the London restaurant and I was in Manchester passing through. I had to eat some lunch so I had a gander at the happy cow app. My mouth dropped open- Purezza in Manchester??! I had to go and my golly what a joy it was to taste this glorious food again. The lunch deal is generous and absolutely hits the spot!

Simply the Best - Edit
I still think about Purezza every time I endure the pretty bogstandard pizza that’s widely available either in supermarkets, or from your local chain pizza place. Sadly, I don’t live close enough to any of the few Purezza’s, tempting though it is to move just that bit closer for the sake of good pizza - the only thing that a man will move a hundred miles away for!
Read moreThe pizza here is just really, really good, and so are the sides. I’d heard of Purezza prior to visiting Manchester, and while my expectations were high based on whispers, and rumours, I have to admit that they were exceeded in the end. This is the kind of food that gives veganism a good name, indistinguishable from the “real” thing, full of flavour, and texture.
Obviously, I’d heartily recommend that anybody visits if they’re in the area, or even if you’re a little further away and you’re willing to take a detour for the sake of excellence in the field of pizza.
Pros: Everything
Cons: None
