Northern Soul Grilled Cheese opens on Church Street

Manchester welcomed its first dedicated grilled cheese outlet recently, as Northern Soul popped up on Church Street’s street market. Its menu includes its signature sandwich The Soul (£4.50), featuring three cheeses, plus onions or marmite, The French (£5.50), with added leek, gruyere and tomato and chilli chutney, and The Hot Chorizo (£6), featuring chorizo, jalapenos and Emmental. Pig on a Lead (£6.50), meanwhile, includes both mac & cheese and seven-hour barbecue pulled pork. All sandwiches are served with dill pickle and coleslaw on the side, with other extras available to purchase. Northern Soul also offers milkshakes – including Killer Vanilla, Hersey’s & Fluff, Peanut Butter and Oreo – at £4, plus soups, tea and coffee options. With substantial lunchtime queues forming since its January launch, Northern Soul could be one of Manchester’s brightest food openings this year.
