"The little piece of Rome on South Lambeth Road created by the team behind The Canton Arms continues to impress with its homemade gelato. The flavour selection changes weekly, but the if the regulars were lined up they’d form a Farrow & Ball-style pale-and-interesting colour chart: milk, stracciatella, roasted almond, coffee and grappa… The affogato is a barnstormer, and if the park beckons, proper waffle cones are available to take away." - Emma Hughes, James Hansen

"Sharing desserts, so often a source of simmering rage, are generally best avoided. The tiramisù at Stockwell Continental, one of south London’s premier antipasti and pizza purveyors, is the exception that proves the rule. Order it and a serving easily big enough to feed six comes to the table — even if there are only two people with spoons at the ready. Deep, light but rich, and judiciously boozy, with just enough bite left in the sponge, it’s close to perfect." - Emma Hughes

Simply one of the best pizzas in town! If you add the Exellent and unbelievable friendly service your dinner it will be unforgettable! It's so simple but also so difficult for some restaurants to follow the common sense. This place has it all. Food quality is excellent! All vegetables are top quality and fresh. Pizza is simply divine! Fresh olive oil on all the tables followed by they're home made chilly. Ice cold beer and frozen glasses make a difference! Finally the 2 different ice cream that we ordered for dessert was home made and absolutely delicious! Atmosphere is very warm and relaxing! This place proudly gets the five stars and is highly recommended!

Staffs were friendly and the food was good:) I ordered a piece of pistachio cake and Margarita. The cake was a little bit sweet but the pizza was nice:) I want to try a different menu next time. Thank you!

Stockwell Continental has the type of homely friendly vibe everyone craves from their local Italian. Featuring fresh and well crafted dishes from pizza to arrancini, SC delivers at every course. We enjoyed two beautiful sourdough pizzas and a selection of starters that would put any trattoria to shame. I cannot recommend Stockwell Continental enough.

Best spot in Stockwell. Eaten here 5/6 times and the food has always been to a high standard. Staff are friendly & the decor is beautiful. Popped in today for a quick coffee and bacon sandwich which hit the spot.

Would have loved to have given 5 stars, but there were some things about the food we found a little strange... The pork tonnato was a little gristly, but really, after eating so much cold pork fat you just don’t feel so good. The pizza sauce had a was slightly bitter taste; we wondered if this was how they intended it or perhaps a mistake? We really really enjoyed the atmosphere, music, menu choices, prices and service- so we wouldn’t say no to visiting again. Even if just to order the tonnato again (and just eat less of it!)

It's a nice place to have a breakfast or lunch, very cosy and have a few tables outside. Also, breakfast was freshly made but expensive about £8 or £9 for a portion. I didn't like coffee taste, it was a bit stale.

Fabulous FABULOUS pizza. This is currently my favourite pizza place in London! The flavours were so fresh and every element of the two pizzas we got (Nduja and Salami) was perfect. I really like the minimalist feel inside, with a wonderful ambience. No pretentious rubbish here! I cannot wait to return! Bravo!

Wow, what a surprise! You would never expect such a gem on a busy road in this underrated part of South London, and the outside blends in well as it looks more like a launderette than a modern restaurant. I was very happy when a friend introduced me to this place, making a change from the pub on the corner that had become our default meeting place. Nice to hear that the owners are the same and the area can obviously take two lovely places to drop in for coffees during the day. If the bacon sandwich was anything to go by, the food is bound to be fantastic. Staff were super friendly and the large seating area in the back looked inviting. They make their own bread and the pizzas are said to be delicious. Can't wait to return!
