Situated in Manchester University’s Student Union, 532 Bar + Kitchen is a student’s paradise for good quality food at low prices. The Student Union heard about LLK a year ago after visiting the LLK Demonstration Kitchen in Oldham and enlisted the help of our Technical Director, Will Pilling who has serviced numerous pieces of equipment for the institution. The student union bar’s mission is; ‘to offer student cheap, good value and a high quality meal that is the same standard as what you would expect from Manchester city centre’ states their Head Chef, Adam. When choosing their latest piece of equipment for their kitchen, the 532 Bar + Kitchen opted for the Cuppone Paolo oven. This oven is a perfect match for this site that can serve up to 200-300 covers in one day. Its controllable elements, with the option to switch the power from min-max during busy periods, helps save valuable energy whilst not compromising on the quality.

The bar, which has impressive menu of hand-stretched 12” pizzas, proudly boasts that its most popular serving is its Formaggio Di Capra; a delicious, stone-baked pizza topped with tomato, mozzarella, goats cheese, caramelised red onions, and rocket priced at only £6 for students, it’s easy to see why it is so popular! When asked about the service they have received from LLK over the last year Adam said; “LLK always provide a quick and reliable service, especially their service team. On occasion I have come in some mornings & equipment has already been fixed.”
