You can never go wrong with pizza, it’s the food of happiness after all. So, whether you are a fan of the classic margherita or someone who likes their pie without tomato sauce, we are confident you will find the perfect slice at one these restaurants. These are our Tipps Top Ten.

 

Franco Manca – Brixton

The pizza from Franco Manca is made in the traditional Neapolitan style and has impeccably well-sourced toppings. The highlight is the base which is the perfect combo of crispiness and chewiness, and has a distinct sour taste. Despite the high-quality, pizzas here are incredibly affordable and will not set you back much. Franco Manco now has over seventeen branches but their original Brixton branch is still one of the best.

Homeslice – Covent Garden

This joint in Neal’s Yard serves up pizzas that you can devour whole or by the slice. The whole pizzas are a whopping 20 inches, so we recommend you share with a buddy or two. The toppings are truly original and range from aubergine, cauliflower cheese, spinach and harissa to spiced lamb with savoy cabbage and sumac yoghurt. If can’t choose between the options you can always split two flavours across one pizza.

Rudy’s Neapolitan Pizza – Manchester

Sticking to the traditional Neapolitan-style pizza, these pies are high-end Italian. The menu consists of homemade pizzas which are either tomato or ‘white’ (without tomato sauce) based, and are generously sized. If you are looking for a classic go for the salami pizza, otherwise we recommend the Ancozze which is a white pizza that comes topped with Tuscan sausage, wild broccoli, chilli flakes and smoked mozzarella.
