The Pizza Oven has been in place for a while now..

The Counter in place. The Outside signage is done

The outside repainted.

There seems to be a floor laid internally but may just be a screed. Cannot tell peering through the window.


After taking on the place work seems to of progressed remarkably fast.

Lets not get too excited. It's yet to open. Like I say, I was told it will open next week.

Hi Louisa.


I've no idea. The website for their Brixton site does not give any details of drinks available.

I spoke to the owners last night as they were fixing the sign above the shop. I asked if the Pizzas would be wood fired and he confirmed they would be. I literally punched the air in jubilation at hearing this. So excited I forgot to ask if they were also stone baked. Can anyone confirm?

Draft is good news.


The pale ale and lager at Franco Manca is relatively expensive.

Walked passed last night 9.00pm Seating installed and Wood fired Oven visibly on.

Don't they take a couple of days to get up to full temperature? Some places Never turn them off, ??


Looks bigger for some reason. A pleasant looking make over. I feel it probably do well.

I will pay ?100 to a charity of your choice, if you can eat a pizza 31 seconds (without stopping to huff and puff it cool) of it coming out cooked from a wood fired oven.


You name the place, I?ll set up the challenge.

I seldom eat Pizza. Never in a Restaurant. You know that.

I'm ill. I can just about manage 1/2 a 9" Margaretta

Anyway I'm going into Hospital tomorrow morning for Surgery under General anaesthetic.

The procedure is complicated and comes with risks.


The last thing on my mind at the moment is Pizza.

Thank you Sue


My condition is not 'curable' It all went well though and I am now 'Stent Free' but I will have the same procedure in a few months time to see if anything has changed.At the moment I can eat only a few mouthfuls of any food. about 100gms.

I get 3 meals out of a T/a curry Can work out quite cheap :)


Anyway I started this thread to talk about The New Pizza Place where Jaflong used to be.

I think it opened while I was away, as did Saucy.

Not had a chance to see them yet. Yet to ventured out of the house.


I'm sure they will both do well. It's totally down to them. There is a lot of competition.

    • I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan. 
    • And they started long before midnight!
    • First mate - I wondered if I was imagining things at 4.45 this morning . Apparently not .
    • The Dutch are addicted to New Year fireworks and spent €130million this year on them. However,  sales to individuals will be banned as from this year and celebrations will be organised by local and city councils. I have Dutch friends and for them, this can’t come soon enough. However, at least there it’s concentrated  on one night. Here, it’s never ending, any excuse to make a noise is seized upon with gusto. In addition to the annual celebrations, add birthdays, weddings, engagements, divorces, christenings, BBQs, etc etc. I dare say you can funerals to that list as well. Yesterday it started mid-afternoon and just carried on until the early hours. In the past, I’ve been woken up at 4am. Anyyone who doesn’t like it can go hang and you can ignore completely the  effects on people’s animals and wildlife. Don’t hold your breath about anything being done here, however.
