Withington. So much to answer for. The south Manchester ‘village’ doesn’t shout as loud as neighbours Didsbury and Chorlton, but has seen its fair share of legendary food and drink institutions. In the third decade of the 21st Century the neighbourhood is arguably in ruder health than ever before when it comes to wining and dining. Dough Club, tucked away on Queen Street, is a case in point. The team are on a mission to bring you the best Detroit-style pizza in town, at a price that makes it easy to enjoy anytime. And they seem to be doing well at fulfilling that promise.
Committed to crafting the finest pizza in the area, this is the perfect joint whether you’re stopping by for a quick slice or feeding an entire family, the combination of quality and value has garnered a strong loyal following, regulars drawn in thanks to a menu stacked with thoughtfully crafted fresh pizzas inspired by America’s Motor City. From classic cheese and pepperoni to innovative yet Halal friendly new flavours, there’s something for everyone.
Sweet Peps is the best seller, but you’ll be equally satisfied with the classic marg or smokey chic, each with homemade marinara sauce generously drizzled on top. Dough proofed for 48 hours, ensuring that every serving has the perfect airy, fluffy base. There’s even their signature cheese crown, where the cheese caramelises against the edge of the pan. But Dough Club isn’t just a place to eat — it’s a fully-fledged part of the local community, serving familiarity, comfort and satisfaction with every slice. Organic and authentic nature, with social media a key driver behind this runaway success story, there’s a tangible sense that fans and followers are actively involved in the restaurant’s journey, no matter if they’re first year students, longstanding residents, couples or larger groups. No expense spared, consider this the home of that inimitable Detroit taste in the south side of our city.
