At The Head of Steam Manchester NQ, we do things properly, and that includes the food!

Motor City Slice serves up authentic Detroit-style pizza with thick & airy crusts, and baked in blue steel pans for that signature crispy edge. Whether you’re keeping it classic with the ‘Punk Rock Classic’ or more into your loaded flavour combos such as the Cluckin’ Mad, we’ve got something for everyone!

Fat Smash Burgers is all about the perfect burger! A hybrid between the thick smokehouse burgers and the classic smash burger, we’ve really found the sweet spot!

Mix and match both menus and pair them perfectly with our ever-rotating craft beer lineup!
