    Classic Franco Manca (best pizza in London), the product is absolutely the same across the whole chain. Check the specials before ordering one of the 6 pizzas available.

    One of the best pizza places in London. An unusual spot for a gem like this, but not to be missed. Try the No Logo Pale Ale, quite a nice beer...

    I'm Italian, so I am very particular with my pizza and refuse to go to crappy places like pizza express. Franco manca is def the best and most authentic pizza in London. Absolutely perfect!!!

    One of London's best pizzerias, and cheaper than Pizza Express, in the mammoth mall at Stratford, the main Olympic Park transit hub. Read more

    Great Pizza but as it is probably their busiest branch they don't cook it enough, therefore sometimes it's not as crispy as it should be. Still really good though.

    Very good sourdough pizza with lesser wait times than the popular Brixton branch. Chorizo pizza is great.

    Chorizo pizza was great. Well balanced savoury flavour, bit of spice, soft neopolitan base.

    Delicious wood fired pizza. Hands down. Fed family of three for under £20. Staff was pleasant and efficient.

    A half margherita half spicy lamb was a huge deal and shouldn't have as all I got was margherita with 4 lamb sausage pieces. Pizza was average, defo not better than Pizza Pilgrims or Made in Italy.

    Bellissimo. Best boutique pizza chain in Ldn… (although original Brixton branch is the best)

    The pizza is actually pretty good. It's not so filling so more a lunch place than dinner but still tasty.

    It hasn't got the atmosphere of Franco's other branches. But it also hasn't got the queues. Enjoy!

    Their pizza could be better if piping hot. Perhaps more love needed

    Authentic looking pizza but not baked properly. Extra's are costly. £1.50 for ham topping...

    Lacks the magic of the Brixton original, but not too bad an approximation.
