"Franco Manca is one of the daddies as far as Neapolitan-style pizza in London is concerned, and their original restaurant in Brixton Arcade is where it all started. Coming here is like travelling back in time, kind of like visiting a retro arcade, or going outside the M25. The inside of the restaurant has a huge oven that keeps the place warm, and turns out excellent pizzas with top quality, classic toppings like wild mushrooms and buffalo ricotta. Whatever you order, you can’t go wrong, and it’s perfect for a casual hang or pre-lash eats. photo credit: Rob Greig" - David Paw

Meat special was lovely (unfortunately couldn’t taste the Stilton though). Service was attentive and the restaurant. The January £5 pizzas is an incredible deal

Not much atmosphere as we went at a very quiet time. As a meat-eater, not a wide range of toppings. If you like vegetables, you'll probably be happier. But the food we had was all excellent. Pizza base was delicious and the pizza, salad and other food was all excellent. Will definitely be going again. The waiter helped me chose as I'm a bit fussy! And love the new location and restaurant. Thank you Brixton.

Pizza was good but NOT cooked. The dessert ( chocolate and halzenut cake) amazing!! Not too sweet but intense in flavour. THANKS the lovely staff. Waiters were very caring and kind! Prices on average.

The original, and the best! The closest anyone has come to the best Neapolitan pizza outside of Naples. This is where Franco Manca started, and it is always amazing! Top tip: instead of ordering a starter, just have two pizzas! Vegans like me are well catered for (and the simplest Pizza here is MEGA CHEAP!)

An excellent dining experience. Wonderful pizza and even lovelier staff. My friend and I, both vegetarians, were excited to try the mushroom pizza. Apparently, many others felt the same way, because we were disappointed to learn that the kitchen had run out of mushrooms! Thankfully, our server Ines and her manager Rudo, were extremely patient and helpful in advising us on alternatives, and tailoring the order to our tastes. With their recommendations, we were both able to enjoy a delicious custom vegetarian pizza, as well as a complementary limoncello. All the more impressive, was the fact that it was Ines’ first day on the job. Compliments to all the staff, but her especially, for their patience, generosity and excellent customer service!

Absolutely love this pizza, always fresh and delicious. The menu often changes with new items so it's perfect for those who love to experience new flavours. Staff is very kind and helpful as well, definitely my favourite local pizza parlour!

The place looks nice and cosy from the outside and it is, actually. Unfortunately, I ate the worst pizza I have ever had. And the staff was rude.. two girls who were apparently angry or burned out. Maybe it was not the right evening, but I left with a bad feeling.

This is a late review, having attended the Pizzeria in April. Franco Manca is a chain of decent pizzerias and the Brixon branch is no exception. The staff is extra friendly, the toilets are clean and the ambience close to a traditional pizzeria and not too fancy. An eatery where the emphasis is on good fares more than on decor. The pizza is modelled on the Neapolitan type, thin crunchy crust quickly cooked and a sensible topping, not too traditional, yet not over-risky modern. There are vegan choices, but not in the desserts' selection. The beer is local and highly potable. I chose the Franco Manca special and was pleasantly surprised by the abundant brisaola and Parmesan topping. Definitely a good bistro, to spend an evening with friends.
