Pizza Pilgrims Covent Garden

Food was great had the brocolli sausage pizza. Unfiltered Moretti is a great addition to drink. Dessert had the lemon sorbet, highly recommend. Got seen quick, no booking on a Friday night. 5min wait Food was excellent, pizza had a good crust, dips are worth it for this reason. Service was great, friendly and food was quick.

With a queue waiting down the street to get in we were very excited to try Pizza Pilgrims at Covent Garden. We had a reservation and would recommend this at weekends and/or evenings to avoid waiting in the cold. The pizza was good and arrived quickly, and the sides were a nice accompaniment. The frozen sicilian lemon dessert was a lovely treat at the end of the meal. The cocktails were a bit disappointing and the service felt rushed and slightly inattentive, likely due to it being a Saturday evening. Would expect better though when a 12.5% service charge is automatically added to your bill.

We have been to this restaurant twice now whilst in London as we live in Horsham and both times it has not disappointed! Excellent food, excellent service and a great atmosphere! Our server Alex, was very friendly, upbeat and very helpful, a true credit to the Pizza Pilgrim, Covent Garden restaurant. When we came the first time it was very busy but food was still flying out of the kitchen but kept high standards and amazing quality. The second time we came, the quality and speedy service was exactly the same as we remembered and we were once again blown away by how good it is/was. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for something that ticks every box!

Had some good pizzas here on a busy night in the west end. We got in between people's bookings with staff fitting us in a 1 hour slot at 16:30 on a manic Monday afternoon which worked for us. Pizza bases were very good, although looks closely as one of our diners was expecting a tomato sauce on top of the base but not all have this (not saying I expect this but some might). Toppings were good and had a good selection of options. Drinks were good then cherry soda was particularly good. Space is tight so don't expect lots of space but it worked for us. Staff were responsive, althought a small error in a loud environment meant we got the cherry soda, but as that was the best drink we had all is forgiven!!

I love having somewhere that's both vegan and gluten-free to eat (bear in mind I'm intolerant and not celiac, which I don't think they can cater for)! Prices are also very good for London. I feel like this time around my food was undercooked, but usually it's really good. Extra points for having a gf base that's actually soft and spongey. The place is very chill and comfortable. Service is laid back but congenial. I like the little truck things which the knives and drink menu are stored in!

Absolutely loved Pizza Pilgrims Covent Garden 🍕✨ From the moment we walked in, the place just gets it, cozy, buzzy, and full of that effortless Italian comfort vibe. The food? Unreal. I had the Smoky Aubergine Parmigiana and it was rich, smoky, deeply comforting, and perfectly balanced. One of those dishes you keep thinking about long after the plate’s empty. My partner went for the Double Pepperoni & Hot Honey, and wow… spicy, sweet, salty perfection with that signature soft, pillowy crust. Every bite slapped. Everything felt generous and joyful, great ingredients, bold flavours, and food made with real love. Add in friendly staff, great atmosphere, and a warm, intimate setting right in the heart of Covent Garden, and it’s an easy 10/10. This is pizza done properly. Can’t wait to come back 🍯🔥🍆

Amazing atmosphere and delicious food tonight!! I had the pizza with truffle and mushrooms and the flavour was divine!! The spicy pineapple margarita such a lovely drink😋 The highlight of the night was the absolutely brilliant service by our hostess Eleni and ofcourse the dessert with the pistachio!! We were offered a shot of espresso which accompanied all the flavours in the best way!! We will be back for more!!

I tried the double pepperoni with hot honey — their most popular pizza — and it absolutely lives up to the hype. The crispy, curled pepperoni had the perfect kick, and the drizzle of hot honey added a sweet heat that took it to the next level. Perfectly balanced and seriously addictive. 🍕🔥

A frequent visit for me on business trips to London, this has become a staple in my rotation of London restaurants when I visit. I am a big fan of Neapolitan pizza and this place represents the category well. The service is always fast and friendly and I've never had to wait for seating even on a bustling day. The menu has lots of different pizza choices and toppings though I typically just go for a margherita pizza, the ingredients are simple and fresh and bursting with flavor. The only note I'd make is to skip the ranch side. It doesn't hit like American ranch and its really not needed anyway with such a delicious pizza, it's kind of a mismatch. Either way, regardless of your topping order this is a must visit place for any visitor to London, with many locations around the city, its hard to miss!

As an American, I feel highly qualified to say that this pizza place is awesome! If you are going to the theater, be sure to make the Pizza Pilgram your stop after the show. The pizzas are delicious and made with high quality ingredients. It is a fun, vibrant atmosphere with sweet and kind staff.

Came here a quick lunch. Ordered a simple Side salad and a margharita pizza. Got a cider and a pint of their local beer. Pizza and salad came very quickly and the food was very good. Beer and cider were also good. Prices reasonable.

I'd recently arrived in London from New York and was looking for pizza that would be as satisfying as what I could find back home - Pizza Pilgrims did not disappoint! I loved the fun, campy vibe of the restaurant. I came during lunchtime but it was still pretty crowded and buzzy. I ordered a pickled cucumber side salad and a Fiorentina pizza, which was made with mozzarella, spinach, egg yolk, and crispy onions. The flavors were quite unique and the crust was thin in the middle and thick and chewy on the edges - just as it should be :) If I'd come closer to dinner time I would have definitely ordered a cider with it as well. Really happy to have found this place! Great pizza that I'd definitely recommend for anyone looking for a fun, casual dinner.

Being from Buffalo NY I had to try some pizza. This place was amazing. Super flavorful and very affordable for a S/M which I shared with another person. Also came out fast. The restaurant is small but that's London and most restaurants. I didn't mind. There's some outside seating but not much. Definitely a good place

The food was amazing and freshly made - loved the smoky flavors of aubergine pizza ! Every dish we ordered was very fresh and the crust was amazing!

We got the pepperoni and hot honey pizza and it was delicious! We ordered takeout and it took about 15-20 mins. Very tasty and we are used to NY/NJ pizza!! Restaurant itself is more takeout style, with some outdoor seating.

For a great pizza experience in London, even though a chain, Pizza Pilgrims is a fab option. Pizza was delicious and service was great!

I was lured in by the promise of an 8 cheese pizza. So many cheeses! Ricotta, fior di latte mozzarella, Grana Padano, gorgonzola, provola, Parmesan and buffalo mozzarella, topped with a burratina. Can I differentiate that many cheeses? No but I do love a pile of mixed cheeses. The pizza did come pretty quickly, and I did like the cheeses and the bubbling crispy crust, but the pizza was a bit oily and pooled the oil which actually worked well when it dripped off and was good to dip the crust in. The crust was pretty thin and had to hold it on the bottom so it didn't collapse. The weight off the cheese was too much, so it was a delicious but delicate to balance pie. Overall it was quick service, decently priced, and tasty if a little messy pizza to share. The ambiance is a mix of old movie posters and pizza boxes that customers have drawn on. It's a hip, eclectic feel for a casual night out.

This place was recommended by our tour guide, and I am so glad we went! We ordered the Hawaiian pizza and my husband had a calzone. Both were really good! The staff were really friendly and helpful with the menu, especially since it's all in Italian. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Florence.

Decent pizza flavor. Lines are LONG. Prices are $15 on average for individual sized pizzas.

Great place with a great, authentic ambiance. Plenty of vegan options and the lemon sorbet... just do it. Regardless of how full you already are. Presentation was lovely. Much creamier than regular sorbet. Zane was a great waiter. Very attentive without being annoying.

multiple location open late bubbly crust pizza, good chew double pepperoni and honey with pepper. solid

The place was packed so we figured it must be good. Being in London for the first time in many years it's hard to know where to eat. We ordered a pepperoni pizza which was extremely salty and spicy and a margarita pizza which was kinda bland. We ordered 2 soft drinks and it ended up being kinda pricy for a hole in the wall and on top of that they added 12.5 percent service fee. I can say I was disappointed in the food and why the service charge for 3 people. Won't be returning here anytime soon

We were dying for food after a play and made our way to Pizza Pilgrims. First, I loved the atmosphere. It was a really cute joint, with fun cardboard cutouts and drawings everywhere. The food and the drinks were fantastic. Pizza was well sized for the price!

Glad we stopped here. Hand made, made to order goodness. Don't go anywhere else for pizza. Delicious!

2nd trip to London, 2nd visit to this Pizza Pilgrims location. First visit was 5 stars, second visit was 3, so I bestow a 4. Both visits, staff was very friendly to 2 yanks, and the place has a really good vibe. Both times ordered a Bufala DOP and nduja. Both were so good I came back straight off the plane the 2nd time, but this time, the nduja came out hot and delicious, but the DOP was barely lukewarm when it hit the table, and was borderline cold by the second piece. Obviously one came out first, but there must have been a big lag in getting pie number two into the oven. I'll be back, London, and will give PP one more shot!

Ok so last night in London and with out a doubt great last night! Needed quick for kiddos .....reviews were great but this place crushes the reviews! Fresh ingredients, Stellar crust and the whole thing works! Simple salads, great fresh pizza and nice staff in a casual informal environment. So recommend this place. You will not be disappointed! -- The Mom Deft use of extraordinary ingredients. No "pile it on" the oversalted zero tomato sauce. This place showcases quality. You will be overwhelmed with each carefully curated ingredient. Calabrian Chiles, beautiful tomatoes, explosive basil, Nduja...and the crust?!? Not enough of this perfection. -- The Dad Is there more? -- The Kids Come here. Now. And the prices? Incredible value for money.

This was a race against the clock. We were originally meant to visit somewhere else but they were closed which pushed us back in time before our cinema trip. Pizza Pilgrims to the rescue! Now when I said this was a race against time I meant it - we had 30 minutes. We ordered within 5. The olives and arrived in 10. The pizza in 15. We finished at 25. We were out in 30. Now if that's not efficient service nothing is. The olives were really really good, strong in flavour, buttery - perfect! Now to the pizzas. Alex ordered the calzone and I ordered the special of the day, the Peppa pig! They arrived and were perfectly cooked. The calzone is particular was very unique - with the dough being a lot thinner than your usual calzones and double layers of filling. I had a try and it was a very very good calzone - plenty of flavour, plenty of filling! Now to my pizza, it was good - not the best I've had in London but I really enjoyed the pork on top (aka the peppa pig) It had a fantastic flavour and smokiness too it. 30 minutes. Good quality food. Friendly and efficient service. Done.

Great spot for pizza. Margherita and Double Pepperoni pizzas were very good. The Mushroom and Truffle was excellent. The Nduja was not so good. Staff was excellent. Don't forget to get the Nutella rings.

The Napoli Salami & Sweet peppers pizza was delicious and well priced. I'm just upset it took me till my last night in London to find this place.

Authentic Italian style pizza that was as good as any pizza I've had in Italy. Nice decor, clean and tidy. Fresh dough was there in the kitchen and it didn't disappoint. Highly recommend for an early dinner or bite when in Waterloo.

Delicious pizza, friendly service and reasonable prices. What more could you ask for. We will be back soon.

Ok so Americans, there's not your traditional meaty pizzas at this place but the crust and the pizza, hands down! You will never catch me eating crust in America, I wouldn't put mine down tonight! Amazing! Great place!

Overrated, low flavor, especially aubergine parm appetizer which was diced eggplant in tomato sauce with anorexic dollops of cheese, totally underwhelming in taste, presentation, and not worth the price or calories. Bread and fry it dude. Pizza is large but underwhelming in flavor and toppings. Romantic spot though so many 20-something couples were in here, some even making out at dinner. Pretty cool for that?

The pizza here is beautiful. Excellent flavors, fresh ingredients and a soft dough that come to together to form a celebration in your mouth. The service was great and the open space offers a nice view of the kitchen. As soon as you walk in, you're hit with wonderful aromas allowing for a bit of foreplay, if you will. I highly recommend this place.

This place is AMAZING! Honestly I wasn't super excited about pizza in London when there are so many amazing things to eat but when your very picky husband is on a trip with you sometimes you have to give in, boy am I glad I did! This pizza was delicious! The ingredients were so fresh and the crust had that perfect crunchy soft thing going on! Spring for the Gorgonzola dipping sauce too!!!! They also have limoncello so that's always a win in my book! They also have wifi, which is nice if you are traveling from over seas and don't have an international plan!

Visited once, the place was crowded but not fully booked. We waited for our order for 30+ minutes when it turned out the waiter forgot to place it in the line. So we had to wait 10 minutes more. After 40 minutes of waiting we finally had our pizza. The staff apologized and said that the pizza and drinks would be free of charge because of the waiting. Overall it was okay and pizza was tasty but I doubt I will come back because of the waiting part.

We just stumbled over this place. We weren't quiet sure what to expect when we entered but were pleasantly surprised when we realised they have a wood fire oven. (Nothing beats a pizza baked in wood fire oven) The place does look tiny with a few tables on top, but they do have seating downstairs. We sat upstairs. We ordered the 'Nduja' pizza. It was baked to perfection. Since they have an open kitchen plan you can watch your pizza bake. The staff were alert and swift on their feet. In Nutshell, a warm, friendly place serving great comfy food while you catch up with friends or for a midweek dining out with your partner.

Great authentic pizza at reasonable price. One of the best pizzas I had in central London. Service is decent and overall we had a very pleasant last minute dinner before they closed.

I was impressed by the flavor of our "plain" pizza. Thin crust with fresh cheese and basil made the wood fired crust perfectly crisp while remaining soft and chewy.

We were walking around Covent garden looking for a new place to eat! I know there are many places in covent garden but we had tried most of them! Thats when we noticed this small pizza place ! At first I was not sure how it would be but when I entered I really liked the pizza ! We got a warm welcome from the staff and they got our order very fast , the pizza took a bit of time to come since it was made on wood so thats normal and worth it ! We got the Aubergine Parmesan and a Calzoni both were great , exact and perfect amount of ingredients and just wonderful taste ! I love italian food and have tried many places in London and All over the world , this is definitely the top 3 and The best in Covent garden ,will definitely come back

One of best Neapolitan pizza outside of Naples! Great and quick service. Good location A+++

Such a great little pizza place! Friendly staff and great cocktails and amazing pizza. The pesto pizza was a big hit.

Great crust! Margarita with buffalo mozzarella. No comparisons in London as this is my first pizza here, but this is exceptionally better than 99.9 % of the pizzerias in Sweden where I live. You will not be disappointed.

Great Neopolitan style pizza, friendly service. Good selection of flavored San Pelligrino. Recommended.

I am American. I've eaten NYC pizza. Sorry NYC. This is much better! A must place to eat!
