Delicious pizzas. One of our favourites, especially for the dough. Excellent and friendly service even during peak hours. Highly recommended.

Probably the best pizza I’ve had in London yet! I tried the aubergine one and the dough was so chewy yet crispy. Loved the fried onions on top as well. Not too greasy and I could probably finish the whole pie myself! Will be back to try the other options.

I thoroughly enjoyed dining at Pizza Pilgrims. I have a gluten intolerance, so I was looking for a restaurant that provided a gluten-free pizza-based option. This has to be the best GF pizza I have ever devoured. It had the same texture as the regular gluten pizzas; you couldn't tell mine was gluten-free. The sauce was especially significant, having the right balance of cheese and tomato sauce. My friends and I will be coming back here again. The atmosphere was terrific, not too busy, and this was on a Saturday around 5 pm. The wait to be seated was around 10 minutes, so not long, and we were served promptly. There is also seating downstairs. My GF pizza is the one at the far right bottom.

All I can say is WOW WOW WOW !!!!!! We are proper Pizza Pilgrims fans and visited this restaurant on Saturday before a theatre visit. The customer service was out of this world the two guys that looked after us were just both amazing I think one of them was called Simon and the other one was the head chef or manager. The food was the best Pilgrims that we have visited so far 100% !! You will not regret trying this restaurant honestly they cannot do enough for you and it is just good old customer service at its best !!!! Thank you to you both for everything we had a great time and it was all down to you for helping us in !!!! Pizza excellent as you can see Dips fresh and beautiful Mozzarella bites nice and big and plenty of jam Garlic bread with cheese Mmmmmmmmmmm

I recently visited Pizza Pilgrims and was absolutely delighted by the entire experience. The atmosphere was fun and relaxed, and the staff made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. The pizza itself was truly amazing—perfectly thin and crispy crust, fresh toppings, and a rich tomato sauce that tasted incredibly authentic. The balance of flavors was spot on, and you could tell the ingredients were top quality. I left feeling completely satisfied and can’t wait to come back for another slice!
