Pizza Punks to open its seventh UK restaurant in Liverpool this September

The unlimited-topping, San Franciscan sourdough pizza brand, Pizza Punks has confirmed it will open its seventh UK restaurant in Liverpool this September.

Opening in the heart of the city on Bold Street, Pizza Punks Liverpool will join the brand’s other restaurant locations across the UK, including Glasgow, Belfast, Leicester and the latest opening Durham.

The new 170-cover restaurant will be the largest Pizza Punks site in the UK, with a new grab and go kiosk at the rear of the building and an additional 30-covers of outdoor seating on Bold Street. The restaurant will also feature regular DJs and live music, neon lights, cool artwork, monochrome brick tiles and a stripped back aesthetic; it’s the ultimate cool pizza experience.

Advocates of freedom and expression, the restaurant offers a distinctive pizza experience – create your own – with 35 unlimited toppings to choose from, all made from scratch, to create your own personalised punked up pizza. All for one flat fee, there are no extra costs, just awesome, handmade in-house pizza. Pizza Punks Liverpool also offers Halal, vegan, gluten-free and vegetarian options.

At the helm of the restaurant is the brand’s handcrafted San Franciscan pizza dough; a unique dough that’s proofed for 48-hours to generate maximum flavour and finished with San Marzano Tomato, Basil & Garlic Sauce and mozzarella before the house-toppings are added.

It’s then cooked in wood-fired ovens for the ultimate thin and crisp base with a deliciously chewy thick crust. The restaurant has taken all of the best bits from Neapolitan Pizza dough by using the finest Italian ingredients and methods before ripping up the rule book and introducing them to the aged sourdough starter sourced from San Francisco.

New to the Pizza Punks offering and available at the new Liverpool site, customers can try fresh pasta, hand-made in the restaurant each day. As with the brand’s bespoke approach to pizza, guests will be given the option to punk up their pasta with a choice of sauces and the finest Italian ingredients. Guests can choose from toppings such as Nduja, Tuscan Sausage and Salt & Chilli Chicken.

Pizza Punks Liverpool will offer craft beers and rebellious in-house cocktails, choose from a selection of punked-up classics for the true experience, including Drumstick Caiprisma, featuring vanilla infused rum, raspberry rum, fresh lime juice, served with retro drumstick; Smoked Popcorn Daiquiri with charred sweetcorn infused rum, sweetcorn syrup, fresh lime juice and vanilla smoke; By Monks for Punks with spiced run, pineapple juice, fresh lime juice, almond syrup, buckfast, served with salted popcorn and more!

Pizza Punks founder, Brad Stevens said:
