Best London Pizza – 2013

Sweet Thursday Pizzeria, De Beauvoir Town - DSC_9227

To say I ate and drank well this year does not begin to describe how delectable 2013 was for me. Both in London and beyond, I had the pleasure of experiencing some of the best meals outside the home I’ve ever eaten. This was the year that Peruvian proved itself to the British palate and that a real choice of decent pizza was made available across London. Elsewhere (mostly France and Italy), I enjoyed fabulous meals in a variety fantastic settings that still have me shaking my head in disbelief at how delicious life can be.

Listed below in alphabetical order are my five favourite London pizzerias of 2013 along with one honourable mention from Bristol that was so good I didn’t feel right excluding it from the list. Keep an eye out for more Best of 2013 posts of my favourite London restaurants and cheap eats as well as the ten best restaurants I visited outside of London this year. Please note, these ‘best of‘ lists merely reflect how I chose to dine during 2013 and are comprised of long running and brand new venues as well as businesses that are local to me or somehow related to where work and play took me this year.

Here’s hoping 2014 is just as tasty as 2013 turned out to be.

Best Pizza – London

Ecco Pizza
186 Drury Lane, WC2B 5RU
Inexpensive, quick and tasty – and perhaps the closest thing to New York pizza in London – Ecco is an excellent standby when you want something hot and filling meal, but you only have a few coins to pay for it.

Latto’s Pizza
Palm 2, 152-156 Lower Clapton Road, E5 0QJ
Latto’s “sourdough pizza at the back of Palm 2” is an affordable and budget friendly palate pleaser made with carefully sourced ingredients.

Rossopomodoro
Six locations across central London
Proper pizza Napolitana made in traditional wood burning ovens – what’s not to love?

Sweet Thursday
95 Southgate Road, N1 3JS
Any day of the week is a sweet time to visit this De Beauvoir Town pizzeria and wine shop.

Venerdi
9 Chatsworth Road, E5 0LH
Venerdi is newly opened Chatworth Road pizzeria with a friendly atmosphere and a great pizza menu. By the way, these folks just started to offer free delivery!

Honourable Mention

Pepenero: The only reason Pepenero isn’t on the above list of top pizzerias is because it’s not in London. Located in Bristol, this family-run takeaway features an all organic menu and some of the best pizza you’ll ever have … anywhere.
