Pappa Ciccia Fulham High Street

"The warm atmosphere of this homely Italian restaurant on Fulham High Street is evident when peeking through the window on a Friday evening. You'll see couples sharing arancini in the cosy-looking dining room, and servers rushing between tables balancing pizzas. But it’s even more prevalent when you’re sat inside Pappa Ciccia’s simple dining room with a bowl of piping hot mozzarella-filled aubergine parmigiana, while locals pop in and out for takeaway pizzas or bruschetta starters. It’s open every day of the week but if you want the best experience, come on the weekend when it’s most lively." - rianne shlebak

"Having served the local area for the past 25 years, Pappa Ciccia has two pizzeria-trattorias in Fulham, plus a takeaway and delivery branch in Putney. The family-run business also shuns delivery apps, delivering the old-fashioned way. A huge menu of various Italian restaurant classics are available, but the wood-fired pizzas are the main draw, with much of the produce imported from Italy, while compassionately farmed produce is also utilised where possible. Failsafe classics are offered alongside specials, such as a base topped with mozzarella, spinach, red onion, Parma ham, egg, and Parmesan. All pizzas can be customised, though it’s worth noting those with fewer ingredients tend to travel better." - Jonathan Hatchman
