Franco Manca Birmingham in Birmingham

Me and my best friend came here on a whim before a night out and we had a great experience at this pizza place! The food was delicious—crispy crust, fresh toppings, and just the right amount of cheese. Our server, Christal, was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. We'll definitely be coming back!

I had a lovely time at this restaurant the atmosphere was great the food was amazing and our waiter Christal who looked after delivered wonderful service will be back soon

I came in a couple of days ago with family, and we were welcomed with exceptional service by, I believe, her name was Christal. The food was amazing, and we shall be coming back.

Franco Manca Birmingham is a must-visit! Their pizzas are absolutely delicious, vegan-friendly, and always arrive on time whether dining in or ordering delivery. The service is super fast — 10/10! A huge shoutout to Anna for her outstanding service and warm, professional attitude. She truly made the experience extra special. Highly recommended!

I visited this restaurant recently with a friend and we had the most wonderful experience. Anna was our server and she was just so sweet and helpful. The service was incredible and so was the food. We got pizzas and some drinks which were all lovely. 10/10 experience!

I would just like to say that one of your waitresses Christal (I hope I’ve spelt it right) is absolutely amazing and deserves to be praised, she asked for my preferences and allergies and recommended the no.10 pizza and she was spot on, absolutely amazing and her approach was like no other. Would definitely be back thanks to her!!

Christal was amazing and the food was lovely thankyou!

Great pizza as always. Top service from Christal-Faith. Gracie

Excellent service from Christal-Faith. Plus the food was really good 👍

I have had a lovely time with my waitress christal she couldn’t have showed me a better time honestly she was quick to take my order as well as bringing the food to the table

First time coming here with some friends and this place is really amazing the service was fast and our waitress anna was so polite and was patient with me when i was indecisive with what pizza to get and she was very helpful on helping me with my choice x

Was served by Anna, she was soo lovely, really enjoyed the service here

The energy they have created in this restaurant is honestly so amazing and extremely uplifting. The food was lovely (will definetly be trying something new next time 😉) Catered to be a lovely lady Christal, been here a few times and I’m always looking forward to seeing her bright energy.

Delicious Pizza, Anna was very kind and welcoming. The layout of the store is the best I've seen and posseses the most efficient workflow I've seen in a restaurant

We ordered pizzas and they were sooo good and oh my days our waiter I think her name was Anna she was the best like her service was 100/10 definitely made our dinner so fun. I loved the aesthetic of the place definitely going back.

The pizza was great I loved it, lovely setting and seating. Service was lovely, our server Anna was smiling and polite all the way through and any issues or concerns were dealt with quickly thank you

Massive shout-out to Sandra, Anna and Federica who saved the day when the third party delivery service failed to deliver! They pulled out all the stops and rustled up a replacement order on the house even though it was after closing time and let me pick it up. So kind and helpful, really appreciated it. Pizza was absolutely delicious too (Spicy Salami and Napoli, with Nduja dip and basil pesto). Thanks so much! 😀

Anna was so nice and the pizzas were very fast to come out and very tasty

A first for me, both pizzas were well dressed with ample, delicious and well cooked toppings. The pastrami pizza base arrived a little too well done. Lovely, juicy olives and an airy, tasty, favourite Tiramisu. Stilton 😚 Pastrami 👌🏻the combination of flavours were great otherwise

Pizza was ok, service quite slow and drinks selection poor. Rudy's over the road is better.

Had a lovely meal this afternoon with the wife and kids. (The number 7 and the homemade lemonade is a must guys, you’ll thank me later!) Mickeal served us and couldn’t be more helpful, was very informative and super smiley! Had a great time and can’t wait to be back. Keep it up!

A good place to have a good meal. Lots of good food you chose from. Good ambience and nice atmosphere. The servicecwas pretty quick and good. It is good to always prebook to avoid long wait times.

Christal-Faith was kind, took her time and an excellent asset to the company. Lovely food as always

Lovely food and service. Was served by our lovely waitress Anna.

The food was lovely! Anna was really kind and helpful!

great pizza my waitress Alicia was amazing

Anna was fantastic during our visit to Franco Manca friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. Her warm attitude and quick service really added to the experience. Highly recommended!!!

We had lovely pizzas they were delicious, Anna was fantastic and the team were also great x

Great food and service from Crystal Faith, thank you!

I had an amazing experience here, I like the peace that comes with the ambiance. The response time too was quick and warming-Christal was the one who served me-great service.

Very lovely service from Anna! Made us all feel welcome

Anna was a great service. Food came out really quick and was delicious!

we have a lovely time great food and service was great , was served by Christal and Federica. Would come again !

Mickeal was excellent, highly recommend - amazing food and place

Christal faith was amazing at serving !!! Fast and gorgeous too !! Great service really appreciate and will be back because of the service

We enjoy the meal and the lovely attention from Christal Faith ❤️❤️❤️ we comeback

Really enjoyed our food, service from Anna was excellent she was very helpful and lovely to speak with.

From the moment I stepped into restaurant, I knew I was in for a treat. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a perfect blend of elegance and comfort. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and the staff truly made us feel welcome. The food? Absolutely sensational! Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I highly recommend trying N10, as it was a masterpiece of taste and texture. The ingredients were fresh, the portions generous, and the attention to detail was evident in every bite.

Easily the worst Franco Manca in the uk. Visited multiple locations, portions and quality are abysmal in comparison to the London ones, for example. Servers simply don’t care about their job or service either, they don’t do checkups or anything, even on quieter shifts.

Dog friendly and staff were really helpful. Particularly good at ensuring allergen requirements were fully met. Enjoyed it!

The food was nice, but only realised a few months down the line when going through old receipts that the sever had added her own 25% tip. Not happy.

Tell us you sell coke in glass bottles on your social media! 😆 We will travel! Fab food, fab servixe, fab atmosphere.

As usual - great meal from Franco Manca.. thanks to Anna and the entire team !

Great food! We had one of our first dates here and came back six years later on our anniversary. Special mention to Chloe, who really looked after us and was absolutely fab. We will be back!

Excellent vegan pizza. Quick efficient service. Friendly staff. Young lady that served us very good

Food was great, the waitress was helpful and pleasant. We would definitely come here again, food value for money and relaxed atmosphere. Kids loved the ice cream and Anna was so kind and patient with them.

The pizza was great, the staff where helpful

Anna was lovely! Good 10/10 - we orders 2 mains and 2 desserts between us. The beef pizza and chicken salad. The lemon sorbet and tiremisi

Very nice place great food lovely service nice waitress Alia was very kimd

Anna was amazing we will be back .

Anna was ace and loved the vegan special

Anna was really helpful and the food was great

Lovely place, fast service, food was fab and Alia was great, 10/10 place would recommend highly

Beautiful place, alia was a lovely surver would definitely recommend xx

I come here with the family and it’s at great places to come christal- faith was great and per lights p.s the price was great

Great service from the waitress, food was delicious!

Second time here and both times the pizza was quite soggy. Thought the first time it was just an exception but was again the second time so not my preferred style.

Pizza topping was very scarce, hardly any of the ingredients listed on the menu, Chicken Salad had a few very small scratchings of green pesto chicken and was drenched in balsamic vinegar, cheese cake was hard and tasteless... All in all the meal was very disappointing... Come on Franco Manca put some effort back into your food...

Visited today with my family very busy place staff work hard and are polite food was beautiful and the kids loved it ! First time visiting and will be back again soon

It's OK but the toppings was less than expected and I am fairly sure that we were sold a measure of wine that was half the quantity advertised. I've just used measuring jug and the 175ml I measured out was way more than the meagre amount served. The cost of glass would cover the cost of one bottle in the supermarket and to be honest, it was poor quality. We were given a table squashed between to large groups. That said service was ok. However it gets very noisy very quickly.

Would not recommend for large orders with dietary requirements. We chose Franco Manca because it had gluten free and vegan options (one of our friends is celiac). We even called days beforehand to check that this would not be a problem. On the day in question, all of the pizzas had a regular base and none of them were labelled to indicate which were vegan. Our celiac friend had a few mouthfuls and was put in immediate discomfort. Really disappointing.

Excellent pizzas and very pleasant service.

We opted for the antipasti board , 2 pizzas, sorbet and tiramisu . The food is excellent with a very friendly service. Definitely recommend.

Great pizza, Great ingredients Great dough Great time Great stuff Congratulations! Fast pizza 20/03/2025

Excellent service from Chloe. Great food, and efficient service

I had more expectations from this place. I think i would suggest all to go in Rudy’s than Franco Manca

Soft crust...hardly any toppings and to top it off the table is so small you can't even have 2 people sitting opposite each other!! Disappointed after paying over the odds for a very mediocre experience. We just wanted to leave so badly that we didn't even take any pictures.

Very busy on a Saturday but worth the wait for the pizza. Good wine too.

I want to tell you that my experience with Franco Manca was wonderful! the service very fast and the pizzas were perfect and the ingredients very fresh. Congratulations to the whole team!

Second attempt at a visit. First was a few months ago on a weekday lunchtime. We were one of two tables in that day and waited 10 minutes with no service before deciding to leave (we caught the eye of the member of FOH staff on the way out and they didn’t even question as to why we were leaving?) Anyway, I didn’t leave a review then as we didn’t try the food but tried again today, on a similar lunch time. Met at the door by a member of the team without a smile we had the choice of where to sit so chose our seats. We were one of four tables (one of which was eating). And then the wait began again. I thought I’d time it this time - 13 minutes before we got our order in. Desperately slow considering how quiet it was. Service, when we did receive it, was unpersonable. Food came quickly. Dough was great, toppings were average to poor. Mine was smothered in parmesan. Don’t get me wrong, I love cheese, but I would’ve just ordered a margarita with added parmesan (I think I ordered a number 8?). Would’ve liked to have ordered a second drink but the member of the floor team never returned to check on food. Got up to pay, didn’t pay service. Prefer Rudy’s across the way. Probably won’t return to this restaurant.

As soon as I came in Anna greeted me straight away with a personable smile and a quick chat about how I was, how my day went? The food was 10/10 and the tiramisu is like eating a cloud, sooo good! Anna was lovely and gave me some great recommendations on where to enjoy during my stay in Birmingham! What a great person and she deserves a raise! Can't recommend the place enough, great ambience and atmosphere!

Amazing! Had a lovely time, great food and lovely, kind staff. Lots of nice food options, I have not a single complaint. This location is particularly beautiful, couldn’t stop looking up at the ceilings.

Reservé una mesa para 8 personas, el proceso fue fácil, cuando llegamos al lugar nuestra mesa estaba lista y estaba particularmente ocupado, tuvimos un invitado extra que apareció, pero el personal era flexible y solo dijo si encajas entonces no hay problema. Muy buena pizza, un poco más larga de lo habitual, pero eso fue muy aceptable viendo lo ocupado que estaba el lugar. Todo el mundo disfrutó de sus pizzas y todos nos fuimos muy contentos, felicitaciones al personal por manejar una noche tan ocupada con gracia.

Delivery only but SUCH DELICIOUS PIZZA! None of the chain pizza places comes near for quality and flavour. Beautifully light base and delicate toppings (and deliciously spicy toppings for my daughter’s pizza choice). Only wish we lived in the area and could order regularly!

We ordered the pizza with anchovies and one of the specials. Both pizzas were a bit tasteless and wet, with the dough being burnt. Toppings were also minimal and not well placed. Won't be returning here any time soon!

Most authentic pizza you can have, quite a good daily menu selection aswell

Christal - fe era una camarera encantadora que nos cuidó con deliciosa comida - gran pizza y bebidas y helado. Bueno para niños

Absolutely amazing, sourdough pizza is the best. Friendly service .

Returned to Franco Manca for their excellent pizzas and speedy service. I ordered their no2 which is a classic margarita with an olive oil and tomato base, topped with mozzarella and basil. Simple, delicious- would be happy eating this everyday. Their garlic bread is also crispy and light, bursting with garlic and olive oil flavours. Their no7 consisting of salami and caramelised onions is also a second favourite pick. Franco’s Pizzas are thin, light and bursting with flavour and with the ambiance of the restaurant and the friendly servers, you cannot go wrong booking them in for lunch or dinner. Will be returning to sample their homemade tiramisu and affogato. - P.R

Altogether, nothing bad, but there are better places to get food, including pizza, in the city centre. Pizzas are very good, but not exceptional, especially given the price. They were doing a steady trade on a late Sunday afternoon, and, though friendly, service was a little slow - we waited a good 10 minutes for the bill for example. The staff just weren't terribly attentive, and kept disappearing. They also pre-added the 10% service charge to the bill (and the card machine), which I always think is a bit of a liberty. I don't begrudge it generally, but I'm not sure the tip was well earned on this occasion.

Ben here a few times, nice atmosphere and great pizzas with a good selection of sides and drinks...

I always enjoy getting pizza from Franco Manca. The staff are usually great and the restaurant has a cool and trendy atmosphere.

jav was the best waiter and delivered an amazing experience along with his coworker mickeal

really good, attentive service from Christal and lovey food as always xx

Non pensavo che a Birmingham si potesse mangiare una pizza praticamente identica (anzi forse anche più digeribile) di quella che di solito mangio in Italia (zona Salerno). Sono stato veramente fortunato a scegliere questo locale. L'atmosfera è cordiale, il personale è cortese e gentile, l'ambiente è l'ideale per una tranquilla cena. Lo consiglio vivamente a tutti quelli che vogliono mangiare qualcosa di qualità in un ambiente informale.

Amazing place to have sourdough pizza must try their daily specials

Christal was friendly and provided a great service

wasn't a real fan of the pizza, but my daughter was happy with hers

Best pizza place on the street… incomparable to Rudy’s disgusting dining experience. An absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel right at home - so friendly and attentive. The pizza was next-level delicious; the crust was perfectly crispy, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients. Honestly, it was one of the best pizzas I've had in ages. I’ll definitely be coming back - highly recommend. Best pizza to ever grace my tastebuds!

MOUTH WATERING. this is is by far the best pizza that has ever reached my stomach lining. my taste buds were graced with perfection, i was DROOLING. you will not find pizza like this anywhere else. the service was AMAZING. we had such nice servers, and i loved it. thank you so much!!!

If you're looking for an incredible pizza experience, this place is a must-visit! From the moment I walked in, the service was top-notch—friendly staff who made me feel right at home. But the real star here is the pizza. Absolutely delicious! The crust was perfectly crispy, the toppings fresh and flavorful, and the sauce had the perfect balance of tang and sweetness. Every bite was pure bliss. Highly recommend this place to anyone craving a delicious, high-quality pizza. I'll definitely be coming back!

Staff were SO friendly. They squeezed 6 of us in at the door. Saved my birthday! The food was DELICIOUS. I honestly couldn’t recommend this place more. Perfect for a dinner out and such amazing prices for such amazing food!

Just called the Birmingham restaurant (31st Jan 1045) - dreadful service. Was looking to book a table of 8 for this evening the lady offered a couple of time options neither of which were suitable, I asked what capacity she did have for the time requested which she advised then said 'ok bye'. Sorry, why such an abrupt end to the conversation - am I missing something!? This was just one example of the poor service received, I asked who I complain to she noted she was the manager, I asked who else I could speak to in the company to which she replied she 'cannot give out that information'. No worries, our custom will go elsewhere, on this occasion and in the future!

Absolutely fantastic experience! All credits to Jav, Mike and Fed for their fantastic service - they went above and beyond. Honestly, some would disagree with this statement, but… Franco Manca > Rudy’s. I SAID IT!

Acaba de llamar al restaurante Birmingham (31 calle enero 1045 ) - terrible servicio. Estaba buscando reservar una mesa de 8 para esta noche la señora ofreció un par de opciones de tiempo, ninguna de las cuales eran adecuadas, le pregunté qué capacidad tenía para el tiempo solicitado que ella aconsejó y luego dijo 'ok bye'. Lo siento, ¿por qué un final tan abrupto de la conversación - me estoy perdiendo algo! Este fue solo un ejemplo del mal servicio recibido, le pregunté a quién me quejo ella notó que era la gerente, le pregunté con quién más podía hablar en la empresa a lo que ella respondió que "no puede dar esa información". No te preocupes, nuestra costumbre irá a otro lugar, en esta ocasión y en el futuro!
