Franco manca vs Gowlett


Recommended Posts

The bottom at Franco isn't supposed to be crispy like other pizzas - it's like the pizza in Naples... almost pancake like and pull apart soft, topped with delicious mozzarella and basil... YUM!


For a crispier base, try Sorsi Y Morsi - they do great pizza and amazing homemade pasta too!

Yeah not a fan of the soggy bottom myself, also very very rushed feel about the place. Not enough choice of toppings for me either. I guess it's a matter of preference. Gowlett does it for me though! Hmmmm perhaps ED needs a pizza club! :)
Johnny Gowlett now has the Crust Conductor pizza bus too. It's currently parked in the Brick House brewery car park by Peckham Rye station so you can get a pizza (cheaper than the Gowlett and different toppings) and a craft beer on the same site. Happy days.

and happy and hoppy days! Must check this place out.

I had no idea there was a pizza bus. This is wonderful news.


I like both types of pizzas - and there are times where I will go to Franco manca's above the Gowlett - it's closer, and I think pizzas can be a wonderful remedy for a Friday or Saturday night of excess. However on balance I prefer the Gowlett. Not only is the atmosphere more relaxed & you can enjoy the meal with some leisurely beers but the crispy base means that there is that much more room for the delicious toppings.... And let's not forget their legendary chilli oil!

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
