Restaurant Pizza restaurant Italian restaurant

👍👍 Incredible pizzeria serving some of the softest, tastiest pizzas I've had in a long time. Vegan options are also very good. Not a single thing tasted less than amazing - the olives, the mac and cheese balls, the pizzas, and so on. Jealous of those who are local as if I could I'd be here very often! People often mention pizza, Pizza, service, Pilgrims, pizzas, good, London, experience, great, amazing,

    Second visit here and the pizza needless to say is superlative. 8 cheese pizza and macaroni deep fried balls were amazing. The Ichnuso unfiltered beer was pretty good too.

    Loved the pizza and they managed to sneak us in on short notice which was much appreciated! Really quick service. Only criticism is that the music is very loud - a few people sat near us then asked to be moved because it was too loud to hear one another. Would definitely go back though! 🍕

    When it comes to a great Pizzeria chain, it's Pizza Pilgrims that gets my vote here in London especially when you want a quick bite over lunch. It's nice to easily get a pizza you'd have in Italy, when you see all the toppings and desserts on the menu!

    Delicious pizza! It was really juicy with a lot of filling and tasty dough. We got pepperoni and cheesy one (1 per person). Enjoyed both of them and got really full. Definitely recommend the place!

    Booked in for a large group for birthday. We arrived an hour late but the waitress was lovely and took care of every single person of us. The group of 23 is not very easy to manage. The food came quite one by one as ghetto waitress said its only 5 pizza can be done in the same time in the oven. Some of us had their pizza very early and some not. The only down point was the speed of pizza preparation which was quite slow. They accepted that we can bring the cake and accommodate our party very well. The pizza was lovely. There is halal option available and you can add extra on your pizza. The cucumber salad is very sad specially for the price (£5) I wish I ordered in the rocket salad. The hot sauce is good on cucumber but overall this cannot count as salad. Double pepperoni pizza was fantastic. Its not too spicy and has a very balanced taste.

    Best pizza in London. They got classic Italian Pizzas and some special pizzas like a Carbonara one or one with fries. I would recommend the garlic sauce for the crust.

    Pizza Pilgrims, a haven for pizza lovers in London, recently stole my heart (and stomach) with a delightful dining experience. From the moment I stepped into the warm, inviting atmosphere, I knew I was in for a treat. The friendly buzz of conversation, the intoxicating aroma of wood-fired ovens, and the vibrant splashes of color on the walls all hinted at the culinary adventure that awaited. Our charming server, Valentina, added to the magic. With her warm smile and attentive service, she expertly guided us through the menu, her passion for pizza evident in every recommendation. Her knowledge of the ingredients and cooking methods was impressive, and her suggestions were spot-on. Now, onto the star of the show: the pizzas! We embarked on a delicious journey, starting with the classic Margherita. The simplicity of this pizza was its strength. The San Marzano tomatoes burst with freshness, the fior di latte mozzarella was creamy and divine, and the basil leaves added a touch of herbaceousness. Each bite was a perfect harmony of flavors, a testament to the quality of the ingredients and the skill of the pizzaiolos. Next, we delved into the depths of cheesy goodness with the Otto Formaggi. This pizza was a symphony of four cheeses - mozzarella, gorgonzola, taleggio, and pecorino - each one singing its own unique melody. The gorgonzola's tanginess played beautifully against the sweetness of the taleggio, while the pecorino added a sharp, salty counterpoint. The mozzarella, the maestro of the cheese quartet, held everything together in a creamy embrace. Finally, we reached the Pizza Parmigiana, a masterpiece of comfort food. The succulent slices of chicken were perfectly cooked, tender and juicy, and the rich tomato sauce was infused with the earthy aroma of oregano. The parmesan cheese, generously sprinkled on top, added a salty, nutty touch that tied the whole dish together. Each bite was a burst of flavor, a warm hug on a cold London evening. Throughout the meal, Valentina's attentiveness continued to impress. She ensured our water glasses were never empty, our plates were cleared promptly, and she even offered recommendations for dessert (which we, of course, couldn't resist). Her genuine warmth and friendly demeanor made the entire experience even more enjoyable. As we left Pizza Pilgrims, my heart was full and my stomach was content. I had not only enjoyed a delicious meal, but I had also experienced a slice of London's culinary charm. The combination of fresh, high-quality ingredients, expert preparation, and Valentina's delightful service made Pizza Pilgrims a truly unforgettable dining experience. If you're looking for a pizza paradise in London, look no further than Pizza Pilgrims. Just be sure to ask for Valentina - she'll make your pizza pilgrimage even more special. P.S. Don't forget to try the Nutella calzone for dessert. You won't regret it

    First visit was in Canary Wharf and has since become my favourite pizza place. The base is an authentic Valencian bake with generous toppings with perfect seasoning. I don’t like crusts but this stone oven baked bread base is too delicious to waste. The service was friendly and they managed to sit a party of 6 despite a busy service. Halal and vegan options available. Brava!

    Ordered the pizza with aubergine...it was OK, nothing special. Think I wish I'd gone for the pepperoni. They also sat us by the door at the counter and people kept leaving the door open which was a bit annoying. We were also sat 1m away from the toilet which wasn't great. Service was really fast though and they managed to find a table for us even though they were really busy.

    One of the best pizzas I've had in a while. The restaurant is cozy, staff very friendly and helpful. Will definitely go there again on my next trip to London.

    Die Pizza war absolut überzeugend und sehr authentisch. Der Pizzaboden und die Kruste wie in Italien. Hauchdünn und knusprig. Die Tomatensoße geschmacklich super! Wir würden definitiv wieder kommen! Preis-Leistung TOP.

    Very good pizza Margherita, good crust on the outside, chewy inside. Simple but delicious, truffle infused oil to add is great as well. Garlic bread is very tasty too. The tiramisu desert to share is a great conclusion to the dinner. Recommended !

    Incredible pizza. Be warned this place is super busy on weekends though, get there right at opening or you might have to wait a bit.

    My recent visit to Pizza Pilgrims in Shoreditch was exceptional, and a large part of that was thanks to Simone, he welcomed us with a smile, offered fantastic menu recommendations, and ensured our orders were promptly served. Simone's personalized service and attentiveness made us feel valued. It's not just about the delicious pizza; it's the exceptional service that sets Pizza Pilgrims apart. I can't wait to return, all thanks to Simone's outstanding hospitality. regards Gaetano

    Food was fantastic. Really great service. Called up, the lady was quick to take my order. Pizza done quickly amd fresh out of oven with less than 15 minutes. Vegan pizza was amazing. First time I've ever tried a vegan one and I couldn't believe that they got it to work so well. Dough was amazing aa always. Fantastic pizza joint, authentic pizza and as good as the pizza in Naples. Restaurant was really nice and casual inside.

    Good pizza Clean store Giovanna is incredible she was so helpful and attentive. The manager was a little pushy for a review which was not needed at all as the quality of the food and service will provide that naturally.

    Are you hungry? You should not miss the pizza at Pizza Pilgrims Shoreditch. It is succulent. I have tried the 8 Pizza and it is amazing...

  • 5/5 Nivedha 1 year ago on Google
    The best pizza of my life. Every bite was asking for further more.. wow. Lovedddd the pizza. Had mushroom truffle. I was in love with it.

  • 1/5 Loz C. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered twice last night through deliveroo, the first order for me and my partner: food came over an hour after ordering, when it arrived both pizzas were stone cold, burnt and mine was missing a burrata topping that costs nearly £4, we received credit from this order while my partner made the right decision to order elsewhere, I decided to stick with pizza pilgrims as I had never had a bad experience before. The second order: again arrived over an hour after ordering, this time cooked perfectly but still, stone cold and still missing the burrata. Extremely disappointing will not be ordering from here again. In future if flooded with orders close the restaurant on deliveroo and focus on the orders there, and if you do not have a topping please remove it from the menu.

    Best pizza in London! We had the 8cheese and the nduja: what to say? Simply amazing. A huge shout to the chefs who prepare this deliciously spicy chilli oil. We will come back for sure, great experience.

    We had two gluten free pizzas. One double pepperoni and one mushroom truffle. The dough was good, it’s not always easy to make a good gluten free version, but i think they succeeded. I missed some freshness on both of the pizzas, but in total they were good. Great, attentive staff!

    Don’t even bother trying to find a better Neapolitan pie joint in London. Meat eaters - treat yourself to the double pepperoni and hot honey, you will not regret it.

    Dear Pizza Pilgrims Team, I wanted to take a moment to share my feedback on my recent experience at your establishment. Overall, I must say it was a delightful culinary journey that left me impressed. Firstly, your selection of pizzas is outstanding. From classic Margherita to more adventurous toppings, each pizza on your menu reflects careful consideration of flavors and ingredients. The authenticity of Neapolitan-style pizza shines through in every bite. Moreover, I was particularly impressed by the quality of the ingredients used. The freshness of the vegetables and the richness of the cheese truly elevated the dining experience. Additionally, I must commend your staff for their exceptional service. From the moment I entered, I was greeted warmly, and throughout my meal, the attentiveness of the staff members was impeccable. They were knowledgeable about the menu and offered helpful recommendations, enhancing the overall dining experience. Thank you for providing such a wonderful dining experience. Best regards.
