"Short of calling themselves Pie-O-My in honour of New Jersey’s finest race horse, Alley Cats inMaryleboneleans into The Tonyverse in a big way. For starters, they have a projector that screens actual episodes ofThe Sopranos,red and white chequered tablecloths that could have been swiped from Satriale’s Pork Store, and in the spirit of being top dog, serve some ofthe very best pizza in the whole of London. The pies are thin, covered in a rich tomato sauce, and even when they’ve been sitting in a puddle of stracciatella, the crust remains crisp and chewy." - Heidi Lauth Beasley
"At Alley Cats Pizza, an NYC-style pizza spot in Marylebone, there’s a projector playing The Sopranos on an exposed brick wall. And that’s all the conversation starter you need to get through a 1.5-hour dinner with someone you don’t have all that much in common with. Diners fill the buzzy, industrial-looking room, dipping crispy margherita crusts into the fiery scotch bonnet dipping sauce, and getting messy with a sweet onion jam-heavy mushroom slice. The pizzas are thin, covered in a rich tomato sauce, and are big enough to share. And if the conversation dies down, just pick up where you left off with the projector wall." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
"At this NYC-style pizza spot, exposed brick and chequered tablecloths transport you to the streets of Williamsburg. There's a dimly lit lamp on each table, a projector plays The Sopranos, and diners fill the buzzy, industrial-looking room, dipping chewy margherita crusts into fiery scotch bonnet sauce, and getting messy with a sweet onion jam-heavy mushroom slice. If you’re only getting one pizza, it should be the marinara with pools of stringy, creamy stracciatella." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna
"At Alley Cats Pizza, an NYC-style pizza spot in Marylebone, exposed brick and chequered tablecloths transport you to the streets of Williamsburg. Come evening, this place is a real scene—when the industrial-looking room is busy with dates and mates, dimly lit table lamps throw shadows, and a projector plays The Sopranos. The pizzas are thin and crispy, covered in a rich tomato sauce, and have quality toppings like vodka sauce or vegan ‘nduja. Crusts are nice and chewy, and you probably won’t have any left over if you get the scotch bonnet dipping sauce. They’ve got a second, equally as good Chelsea location if you’re further west." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna
"Come evening, this spot in Marylebone is busy with dates and mates with thin, NYC-style pizzas stacked between them. This place is a real scene: dimly lit table lamps throw shadows across the room and a projector plays The Sopranos. Order the rich marinara with stracciatella, or the glossy vodka which has satisfying, oozy blobs of buffalo mozzarella and artfully scattered basil leaves. The crusts are nice and chewy, and you won’t have any left over if you get the scotch bonnet dipping sauce." - rianne shlebak
