"Common’s social media humour has kept us all going through those ‘if we don’t laugh, we’ll cry’ moments of the pandemic and selling Nell’s pizzas has probably kept them going too. Now also available from The Beagle in Chorlton, these massive 22” pizzas (also available by the slice) come in non-vegan flavours too but even if you’re not doing veganuary their vegan slices are well worth your time. The Veganic features mushrooms, roast garlic cashew cream, chilli, ‘forza win sauce’ and thyme - who needs a load of PVA-glue-esque vegan cheese with all that going on?"

"There’ll be a point during Veganuary when all you want is a massive cheesy pizza and Nell’s is there to provide with four vegan options available to order as a 14” or the huge 22” version. Options include the Vegan Deluxe with artichokes, marinated peppers, red onion and vegan n’duja and the Veganic with mushrooms, roasted garlic cashew cream, forza win sauce, chilli and thyme. Available to order via Deliveroo from their kitchens at Common in Northern Quarter and The Beagle in Chorlton."

"Last but definitely not least is Nell’s Pizza – who really switched up the Manchester pizza scene for us this year. A market that is dominated with Neapolitan pizza, Nell’s brought proper New York-style slices to us every week at Common – and they’ve since become a more permanent fixture for us to enjoy. Think slices bigger than your head and whopping 22-inch pizzas, with classic cheese, pepperoni, and more to choose from."

"Take a trip to Ashton, not far from the city centre, and stroll around Preston Dock. Once Europe's largest inland dock, the historical dockland was opened in 1892 by Queen Victoria's second son Prince Albert. The dock makes an ideal day out for both adults and families, with peaceful strolls around the water and plenty scenery and history surrounding it."
