Mankoushe

The Verdict

For Middle Eastern brekky and pastries done right, visit this Northside gem. You can grab yourself a wood-fired pizza, or some housemade labne with spiced rhubarb!

Mankoushe has settled into Lygon Street to serve up traditional Lebanese flat bread and Middle Eastern inspired recipes. Their unpretentious storefront ensures only the most in-the-know foodies understand what lies behind their red door!

The walls are decked out with illustrations of men in suits, while a wood-fired oven stands proudly in front of them.

Mankoushe’s speciality are Lebanese style pizzas, and there are a bunch of meat and vegetarian pizzas to choose from! They’ve also got a bunch of sides to share and nibble on. Even their desserts, hold true to Middle Eastern influences. Think roasted persimmons with chestnut crumble, almond milk pudding, and cardamom milk pudding with Iranian wild figs.

For Lebanese pastries and delish pizzas done right, grab your mates and visit Mankoushe!
