![5]( "Recensione")
I LOVE Popolino --- That is what my tee-shirt says! Yeah when I was a student I loved this place so much that I actually bought that Tee-shirt for a quid!
If ever I happen to go on a night out in Oxford road now, I can't help but go have that ridiculously cheese and super amazing spicy chicken and sweet corn pizza for 4 pounds! Btw the staff know me so well that the minute i enter they say it loud -- Spicy chicken and Sweet Corn with extra cheese! (That always brings a smile on my face). Well to be fair I was their regular customer for 2 whole years!
This place is clean, safe and the pizza is delicious! They have so many options of toppings that I am sure everyone will find something they like. Most importantly one big crunchy and cheesy pizza is just for 4 quid (You can easily share that between 2 people).
The other reason for my 5 stars is the memories I have with this place, it always takes me back to those good old uni days! *sigh* I hope to someday have a re-union with my old pals here.
Verdict: I am a fan and will always be one! :)
If I'm drungry (drunk & hungry: you're welcome) I want a lot of something hot and cheap (there's a joke there that a cruder man than I would make). Popolino fulfils all these requirements. One of the better takeaway establishments on Oxford Road, it's cheap, brightly lit, and gives you the energy you need to avoid falling asleep on the bus-ride home. I'd recommend sticking with the pizzas and wraps, for the rest of their range is rather average.
I love popolinos! They literally have the best pizzas all over Manchester and nothing can change that sentence of mine!
Their pizza's are soft, crisp base, cheesy to no extent, and the toppings are delicious and plenty! The place is a good for staying and having a meal, with huge Lcd screens playing the latest match or anything that you'd like really. Just request them and they're always happy to let you watch something you really want to. The staff is friendly and talkative.
They've recently come out with these great 'I love Popolino' tees for just £1 and hoodies for £15, they're really great, just like the I love London tees only this one's dedicated to a pizza place, which I think is rather cute!
Really really popular with students and they always have great deals on their food, works out very cheap!
perfect place to grab a pizza for students! cheap and filling! working hours are great too!
Cathy is right! They seem like nice blokes too. A Veggie Hot and a portion of fries please.
I used to come here late night when I was young. Get the chicken sweetcorn and cover it in the chilli sauce. Combine that with the mango rubicon.
I've just been back after 13 years and it's still the same! Pizza comes out on the old skool conveyor grill. Boss man there chatting away - taken over the business from his father, keeping the prices low and serving the same great late night pizza. For £4.99, you cant beat it.
It's kind of like Manchesters answer to american style pizza pie before the NQ got dead posh.
And the artwork on the pizza box is so iconic.
Happy memories came flooding back after returning to Popolino's. Respect to the management keeping it to It's authentic roots.
Awesome place with awesome and tasty pizza with friendly staff. Highly recommended.
I was a bit skeptical when I walked in here at 6:30pm as it was almost empty while the other restaurants next door were at least half full, I ordered a seafood pizza and 3 spicy wings, turned out the pizza was quite nice, and the wings are not bad at all.
Had an aisan style pizza really very delicious and served by ANJUM she is really too polite and kind she is always there to help and the way of talking is outstanding
Thanks for the great serrvice and food will be back soon
i can't fault this place. it's great after a night out and opens very late. The food is affordable and arrives quickly. it's a good portion of food and it's exactly what you're looking for on the way home haha.
