American Pies Manchester opened in 2021 in Ancoats — the historic Little Italy district that has anchored Manchester's Italian community since the late 19th century. The restaurant was founded by the team behind Brewski, the acclaimed Manchester craft beer bar, and operates under the 'Pizza by Brewski' banner, fusing American pizza traditions with the neighbourhood's Italian heritage.
The menu has evolved through a series of seasonal volumes. The June 2026 release — 'Little Italy Vol. 4' — leans fully into the American Italian concept with brisket gruyere parcels, bolognese-filled garlic bread bombs, and slow-cooked baby back ribs sitting alongside the two pizza styles that made the restaurant famous: Chicago deep dish (with its garlic butter parmesan crust loaded with mozzarella and topped with chunky marinara) and Detroit pan (thick-cut, square, with a caramelised cheese crust and a super fluffy middle).
The restaurant is located at 23 Blossom Street, Ancoats, Manchester M4 5EP, and also operates an outdoor terrace area during warmer months. A BYOB 'Mate Date' sharing deal at £65 — covering pizza, garlic bread, wings, loaded fries, mozzarella wedges and dips — makes it a popular option for casual group dining in the neighbourhood.

Both styles are available at American Pies and are priced identically. Detroit pan pizza is a thick-cut square pie with a caramelised cheese crust formed against the edges of the pan and a super fluffy, airy middle. Chicago deep dish has a garlic butter parmesan crust and is stuffed with large amounts of mozzarella, then topped with chunky marinara sauce on top. Both are available in the same range of toppings.
