Dough Hands At The Old Nun’s Head - Review - Nunhead - London - The Infatuation
"London pubs come in all shapes and sizes, and The Old Nun’s Head, unsurprisingly in Nunhead, falls firmly into the ‘fun party pub’ category. See: the Britney shrine and disco ball behind the bar, cool kid crowd, and 80-decibel-plus levels come the evening. Thanks to Dough Hands’ kitchen residency, it’s also serving some of London’s best pizza. The pizzas pair a thin, NYC-inspired base with pillowy, charred crusts, and balanced toppings. But what really pulls us back is their spicy, citrussy, tuna-topped pie. video credit: Emily Hai photo credit: Daisy Meager video credit: Daisy Meager Pause Unmute Food Rundown House Pickles Petition for more pickle plates.

Splodges of creamy stracciatella are an essential add-on. PlayMute video credit: Daisy Meager Jode Despite being topped with ‘nduja and hot honey, there wasn’t much of a spicy element. There are better options on Dough Hands’ menu, so we’d skip. PlayMute video credit: Daisy Meager Spicy Tuna Who knew we’d be singing the praises of a pizza topped with tuna? This is a must-order—there’s a gorgeous balance of chilli heat, lemon freshness, and sweet red onion. photo credit: Daisy Meager" - Daisy Meager
