Pizzeria 081, Peckham lives up to its formidable reputation. The space is intimate and warm, with great music, beautiful décor and a menu packed with genuinely mouth-watering Neapolitan classics — including their famous fried pizzas. If you haven’t tried one yet, run to 081 and order one (or three).
A friend and I shared a deep-fried prosciutto calzone and the pizza bianca Flower Power. I was convinced the calzone was unbeatable — until I tasted the pizza bianca. The depth of flavour in that pizza is astonishing. Together, they were two of the best pizzas I’ve had in a long time.
And don’t miss the Frittatina starter. Modestly described as “Italian mac ’n’ cheese with minced meat and béchamel,” it’s about a thousand times better than any mac ’n’ cheese you’ve ever had.
Do yourself a favour and go.
