Chris HainesApril 28, 2015The pizza here is possibly one of the best that you will find in London. Very authentic, delicious and filling. The veal meatball pizza is a must try. Very friendly staff and great value!
Emily-janeSeptember 19, 2018Big, buzzy Pizza Place in the centre of Shoreditch. Delicious Pizza & sides, calamari and croquettes are good! Nice wine too! It gets busy but you'll get a table quickly, big groups should book!- Busy pizza joint with great energy. Get the veal meatballs pizza and the salted chocolate caramel tart. I promise you will love it.
Nicole JDecember 27, 2018Without a doubt the best pizza in London. Their vegan pizzas are always amazing I also make my own vegan pizza if I don’t fancy the one on the menu. I wish they did a few more vegan options- ben de vereJuly 1, 2015Tasty starters 😝 yum! Make sure you book in advance on Friday night as the waiting time can be more than 30 mins. But you can wait with delicious cocktails and the food is worth it
Major SteadmanJanuary 7, 2019I feel a bit weird about the recent menu additions (Sunday Roast??) but I guess this has to be on the list - anyway, loved the thyme-kick on the Prosciutto & Mushroom. Nicely put together pizza.
Probably the only pizza place I've been to where the starters and desserts are as good as the pizzas. Pizzas with unusual but great ingredients (had one with Taleggio and Guanciale!), I'll be back!
Daniel AJanuary 17, 2017Awesome vibe, service is good, and the pizza is surprisingly great (had the eggplant pizza). Sweet potato app also very good. Everything very fresh
Hannah ParvazJune 2, 2016Prepare yourself for more cheese than bread when ordering the bruschetta, and be careful with the chilli flakes. Pizzas are great also...
Jonathan SteffanoniApril 8, 2019The bar near the entrance has wonderful light and a wooden bench... one of my favourite spots for a drink in London...
Sarah RufinoMay 7, 2014one of the most delicious pizzas that I ever proved! amazing place, stylish people, great music! very near from the tube, easy to find. The parma one is still in my heart!
S Marks The SpotsApril 1, 2013Industrial ambience and thin, puffy pizza baked in gas-fired ovens with just the right amount of topping. The Shoreditch branch is probably the biggest but also the noisiest. Book in advance! Read more
Magdalena WelczSeptember 21, 2019Always great. Quality stays same for many years already. Recommend mac and cheese, one of best ones I had in my life
Kukkii KoppeeOctober 12, 2014Unusual toppings, crispy base, oozing cheese - tick, tick, tick. Salami and broccoli pizza gets a thumbs up and with the bone marrow you get a massive portion of richness..
Teresa WMay 14, 2014it's no Rubirosa or Delfina but the pizza is solid and the restaurant is perfectly casually chic. go with the veal meatball. the garlic bread and croquetas were surprising highlights!
Adam BurrowsAugust 21, 2012Hard to know where to start. The Veal Meatballs pizza is so delicious, but you'll need to complement it with something less heavy. Anything with San Daniele on it gets my vote. Good negroni to boot.
My BF's dad, a very fussy Yorkshireman, declared that this was the best pizza he'd EVER had. Even though the wait for a table is terrible....I will always keep on coming back. So damn delicious.
Michiel de VriesJuly 16, 2016The veal pizza is amazing, but what sets this place apart are the excellent starters. The burrata bruschetta is highly recommended. Lively and loud place.
Nate SDecember 22, 2019Large space, some of the best pizza I’ve ever had. Was pleasantly surprised by the pizza and cocktails!
ChrissieFebruary 27, 2015The pizza is good but the highlight of the evening was the antipasti, a range of meat and cheeses that comes with soft tasty bread. Winner.
Anastasios DagkosApril 29, 2016Great ambience and best pizza around London. It's all about the service and the cocktails for me though 👏
Connie HurleyMay 12, 2013Really enjoyed my pizza but no where can get the ratio of tomato to pizza right! Less tomato more cheese please. I am a dairyholic! Service was good and fab atmosphere!
Probably the best pizza in Shoreditch. Great vibe and a tasty menu. It gets very busy, so be prepared to book or wait for a table.
Josh TaroliFebruary 20, 2017The buffalo mozzarella pizza (10£) tastes great, but it's war with these toppings that won't stop sliding off!
Don't come expecting Lombardi's, but if you're with friends and want a buzzy spot with snacks, wine, and pizza, this is hard to beat by London standards. Perfect for late Sunday afternoons.
Mariloli OSDecember 9, 2017The rocket salad and the meatballs are amazing. All the pizzas are incredible.
Becky HNovember 2, 2014I ordered the veel pizza, the base was delicious and crispy but the topping was really salty. Next time I will choose a different topping.
Diego JiménezOctober 11, 2017Great pizza and venue location, pricey compared to similar options in the area.
Andrei IanovskiiNovember 16, 2019One of the by best pizzerias in London. A bit pricey but very tasty.
Ashley RudolphSeptember 28, 2015Great pizzas (of course) and delicious cocktails! Enjoy a drink at the bar while you wait for your table.
AnneDecember 31, 2012Love the amount of Italian people working here, that's what it makes it so good. Take the buffalo mozzarella, tomato, basil pizza. Simple but amazing.
Constance | @croostifoodiApril 11, 2018Pizza crust is absolutely perfect! Great Napoli style pizzas, large and buzzing venue.
Chris R (thechristophe)November 8, 2014Delicious pizzas, great vegetarian options, decor and atmosphere dangerously close to being on the wrong side of 'on trend'.
Rachel RothDecember 23, 2018Good pizza plus lots of great other options - like the broccoli with chili
Punesh HanMarch 9, 2013Make sure you get a side as the pizza is on the smaller size. Crust can get too crunchy (it could be fluffier) but the ingredients/toppings are top notch.
Nick ZeroApril 23, 2018Ask for the table by the window to Boxpark. Decadent pizzas, be careful. Impressively quick service for a place of such size.
Anna MyWellTraveledFriendOctober 14, 2014The buratta is excellent here and Tuesday are half price. A win win situation.
Thibault TreunenDecember 27, 2014Looove the interior of this place. Restaurant is well organised, the food is more than good, not too expensive and staff is very helpful!
Sarah J ParkerNovember 5, 2017Green eggs for brunch are my absolutel favourite in here but everything is nice!!! This place is a safe bet!
Atmospheric surrounds... not only the interior decoration but also the achingly hip customers. Just make sure you have Google at the ready to figure out what some of the pretentious toppings are.
StylesightSeptember 25, 2012At Pizza East expect to see the legendary ten-inch pizzas covered in the likes of duck sausage with shaved artichokes. Dining at the Pizza Bar offers prime view of the wood-burning ovens.
Meg ShoutMay 28, 2013Best olives ever!!! And I don't eat olives! Don't bother with the lasagne but the pizza is goooood!
Felipe De Grecia ♈September 22, 2013Amazing food, service could be better but don't expect much from people who have to serve so many tables at the same time. Try the mac n cheese!
JessicaMarch 10, 2019Haven’t been here for years, but still does great pizza. Recommend the potato one! Great interior too.
Bamdad DashtbanAugust 20, 2014The meatball pizza is very tasty. A bit salty though and you don't need any appetiser with it.
Xin RogoMarch 1, 2015One of the best London pizza places. Make sure you book or turn up early to find a good seat.
Evening StandardAugust 22, 2012Imaginatively topped - think veal meatballs with prosciutto and cream or spicy sausage, mozzarella and tenderstem broccoli. We loved the Soppressata. Read more
