Best gluten free and dairy free pizza I’ve ever had!! Seriously the only place that doesn’t give you a pre-made, frozen crust. When they closed labyrinth brewery in Manchester, I was so sad because no more Ritual Pizza….but they’re back at Counterweight brewery in Cheshire!!

Wonderful experience - my friend and I almost didn’t find it because it’s inside the brewery and we couldn’t see it from the outside, but it’s in there! We got the pickle pie and it was delicious! I had to ask for ranch on the side because of my onion allergy. The guy who took our order was super understanding and knowledgeable about ingredients - I always have onion questions, but I don’t always get onion answers. The Crowley quotes and theme are a bonus.

My girlfriend and I truly enjoyed the Sabbath event yesterday! The pizza tasted so damn good and the wait due to it being a large event which yields a high volume of food tickets, was worth it! On a normal day, their service is equally as impeccable. Excellent, rad people who make excellent rad food!

Their Gorgonzola burger and Nashville chicken sandwich specials today were so dang good. The pizza is always solid too!

This place is great, pizza is so good. No issues at all with service. I got the mushroom swiss pizza and requested it to be vegan, you can't tell it is vegan so no feeling like you're compromising. My husband got the pepperoni and he loved it.

Ritual Pizza is no joke! absolute 10/10 with a huge menu full of deliciousness and even has quality vegan pizza! I highly recommend the Street Corn pizza. Located inside Labyrinth brewing, the beer is good but the pizza is better!
