top notch eats - starting with really good bases and throwing on some decent toppings. Cheap as you like, too. I can easily imagine a friday night takeaway queue that stretches down the road... and that would be totally worth joining the back of.

Hi -


I actually prefer the gowlett pizza but atmosphere and beer probably help...none-the-less, I've only tried one variety at the new place so far...


it is great to have a spot closer to home for take-a-way, daytime hours, etc...and the nicest guys run it....


after a few more, perhaps I would say it is better than gowlett, but, not yet. Value and size wise, the new place wins.

My dinner tonight consisted of a pizza from this new place and a bottle of very drinkable Italian white from green and blue. All came to just on a tenner and was fucking brilliant.


I would say on the same level as the Gowlet. In fact I think they get their cheese from the same place.

Well I suppose it wasn't that unusual, I just didn't recognise it. It looked a bit like a cheesecake, but it was somewhere between a cheesecake and a cream mousse, and on the top and bottom was something between sponge and biscuit. I can't remember the name of it, and it wasn't on the normal menu. Aren't I useful? But if you see something there that resembles this fabulous description, buy it!

Yep, the last thing we need is American fast-food efficiencies and Lean Six Sigma processes in this little Italian Pizzaria thank you very much!

Nothing like a Tiramisu in fact, but I know my description wasn't great. I'll have a flick through the Silver Spoon and report back. Or even ask when I'm next in! Which won't be long....

Absolutely lovely peeps running the show but I was a trifle disappointed. Maybe my expectations were raised too much. Found the tomato base watery and not seasoned. The anchovies were tasty but not enough of them. I prefer the ones in the market in Peckham. My daughter's had loads of ham though, so she was easily satisfied.

We hvae both just been tonight (fri) and found a lovely relaxed atmosphere, although it was slightly chaotic.


I'm not sure they knew what had hit them... quite a few people turned up and they seemed a little over-whelmed.


However the pizzas were yummy (& v good value at ?5!!) and everyone was friendly and seemed to enjoy themselves.


Off license is right opposite as it is BYO

Just got back from having: bruschetta, pizza magherita, tiramisu.

all 10 out of 10. delicious. As a Italian with high expectations this is superb. Totally chaotic but felt very authentic. definitely worth the ?19 3 course meal for 2.

How lucky are we to have BYO italian in our neighbourhood!

This sounds great and I can't wait to go along, especially as its been recomended by an Italian. Sounds cheap as chips too, so a good addition to ED. Look forward to giving it a go.

    • The solicitor is also the Executor. Big mistake, but my Aunt was very old, and this was the Covid years and shortly after so impossible to intervene and get a couple of close relatives to do this.  She had no children so this is the nephews and nieces. He is a single practitioner, and most at his age would have long since retired - there is a question over his competence Two letters have already gone essentially complaining - batted off and 'amusingly' one put the blame on us. There are five on our side, all speaking to each other, and ideally would work as a single point of contact.  But he has said that this is not allowed - we've all given approval to act on each others behalf. There are five on her late husband's side, who have not engaged with us despite the suggestion to work as a team, There is one other, who get's the lion's share, the typicical 'friend', but we are long since challenging the will. I would like to put another complaint together that he has not used modern collective communication (I expect that he is incapable) which had seriously delayed the execution of the will.   I know many in their 80s very adept with smart phones so that is not an ageist comment. The house has deteriorated very badly, with cold, damp and a serious leak.  PM me if you want to see the dreadful condition that it is now in. I would also question why if the five of us are happy to work together why all of us need to confirm in writing.            
    • Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
    • Very sorry to hear this, but surely the landlord is responsible for fixing the electrics?  Surely they must be insured for things like this? I hope you get it all sorted out quickly.
