Nell’s Pizza, known for its 22-inch New York-style pizzas, is opening a new site at MediaCity this autumn, bringing with it a mix of food, games, and late-night energy.
Located in the Orange Building on the quayside, the venue will be the first Nell’s to feature private karaoke booths, shuffleboard tables, and a large outdoor terrace, alongside the brand’s signature pizzas, ice cream sandwiches and frozen margaritas.
“We’ve been thinking about MediaCity for a long time, it’s such a great area and we’ve seen what brilliant operators like Kargo have achieved so when this space came up, we jumped on it,” said Jonny Heyes, Co-Founder of Nell’s.
“The venue is huge which has given us the chance to really play with the experience. This idea of karaoke and shuffleboard accompanying our made-for-sharing pizzas and great cocktails feels like a natural next step for us as a brand.”
The Manchester-born business, which now operates sites in the Northern Quarter, Kampus, Chorlton and Altrincham, has built a loyal following for its oversized pizzas, New York-inspired slices, and party atmosphere.
The MediaCity opening will see the company expanding beyond the city centre once again, creating over 35 new jobs across kitchen, management, and entry-level positions.
Nell’s has also partnered with Deliveroo and Slerp, meaning its 14 and 22-inch pizzas will be available for delivery across the region.
Nell’s MediaCity is expected to open its doors this autumn, offering what the team calls ‘huge slices, fierce karaoke sessions and lazy afternoons on the terrace’.
