Peckham, Pizza Restaurant Guide

“Best pizza for miles…” Andrea Asciuti’s mega-popular pizza powerhouse has found its first permanent home in Peckham, opening in Feb’ 2023 at this small, 20-cover unit. “Frantic service from Italians, but that doesn’t matter because the pizza’s so good!”. (It also serves Napoli-inspired street food such as frittatina, arancina, crocche…. He also operates within pubs at the Smugglers Tavern in Fitzrovia and at Camden Town’s Colonel Fawcett).

2023 Review: “Deliciously different pizza” comes by the slice in the “relaxed setting” of this yearling in a former grain warehouse (a former site of Forza Win). For all its “very basic” appearance, serious thought goes into the toppings, along with ingredients such as Sicilian datterini tomatoes, Calabrian tropea onions and Turkish figs. “The only problem is knowing when to stop ordering!”

2023 Review: “Tasty thin-crust dough – cooked well in the middle, so no soggy bottoms” – is the secret to the appeal of this seven-strong South London sourdough pizzeria group, where the emphasis is on local ingredients (including Shipton Mill flour and British-made buffalo mozzarella) washed down with locally brewed craft beers and juices from Kent.
