Brand new quick-service pizza restaurant, Detroit Slims has announced that its first venue, on Manchester Oxford Road, is set to open on Saturday 12th October. And to celebrate the launch, they will be giving away 10,000 free pizzas!
The brand will be introducing a fast, fresh new twist on Detroit-style pizza – bringing their love for Detroit pizza to the masses. Detroit Slims pizza will be made with high-quality local ingredients on a signature 10” long, rectangle-shaped base, making for the perfect quick bite in the city centre.
The new restaurant will open at 11AM on Saturday 12th October, with the 25-cover venue taking a coveted corner plot at Circle Square. The new QSR will be a warm, cosy environment for guests featuring natural dark wood, bare brick and painted murals. With capacity for 25 diners, guests will have the option to sit down or take away, with Deliveroo launching very soon after opening. The site sits just a 3-minute walk from Oxford Road Station within the landmark Circle Square neighbourhood.
To celebrate the opening, Detroit Slims is giving away 10,000 FREE pizzas* (over 23 American football pitches when lined up!) to those signed up to their newsletter here, allowing Mancs to get their first taste for free.
Each Slim makes for the perfect quality takeaway option or speedy bite to eat in, with prices starting from just £5. Baked to order and served fresh, hot and fast, Detroit Slims promises a pizza experience unlike anything else. Rich slow-cooked tomato sauce and a plethora of toppings will sit atop a fluffy focaccia base; with Slims including the Cheeseburger Slim, BBQ Meatz and the Shroom Slim – with the standout signature The Pepperoni Crown.
The Slims will be complemented by a variety of house-made dips including Kimchi Mayo, Hot Honey and Dill + Jalapeño Ranch; plus a selection of mouth-watering sides, starting from £3.50 including Chicken Tenders tossed in homemade cajun salt and pepper, and crispy Scooper Fries – the perfect base for scooping up those delicious dips.
Sweet-toothed visitors can also look forward to a range of indulgent thick “Slim Shaky” milkshakes, in a range of flavours including Salted Butterscotch and American fave Banoffee. A selection of other desserts include an iconic Detroit-style ‘Bumpy Cake Sundae’ with soft serve ice cream, double chocolate cookie, caramel and chocolate sauce.
The slick new restaurant will also offer branded merch to buy in-store, so customers can share the Slims love. They will include a lineup of T-shirts, tote bags and crew jumpers, starting from just £15 – the perfect treat for any Pizza lover.
Detroit Slims comes from the team behind Manchester’s beloved venues Ramona, Diecast, and The Firehouse, inspired by their love of Manchester’s ‘twin city’ in all but name, Detroit. Just like Manchester, the city is known for its working-class culture and rich music scene, as well as its unique take on pizza.
Detroit Slims will join the likes of Manchester-favourite Onda Pasta Bar, North Tap Room and Federal Cafe Bar within Circle Square – one of Manchester’s most unique places to live, work, eat and drink. From Bruntwood SciTech and Vita Group, Circle Square is home to exciting startups, global businesses, and some of the most exciting retailers in the city.
The grab-and-go destination, which will elevate the diverse offerings along Oxford Road, spans a generous 1800 sq ft and will create over 25 new jobs in the city.
Detroit Slims will be open at Circle Square, Oxford Road, M1 7FS, from 12PM – 10PM between Sunday and Thursday and 12PM – 12AM across Friday & Saturday.
