As soon as we walked in, we felt a cozy and friendly atmosphere drawing us in further. You could tell you were going to have a good experience ... and we did! We sampled several different pizzas and they were all delicious! The crust was soft and pillowy, which married well with the toppings. And the service was quite good as well. We had a great time! read more

The pizza was delicious! I was dining on my own and the waiter was so kind. I wanted to add sausage to my pizza and he asked what kind, I told him to surprise me. The sausage turned out to be one that I had never heard of (and I can't remember the name of it now) but the whole pizza was fantastic. I will concur with the other reviews that it is not cut into slices when it is served but maybe that's better so you can eat just the right amount that satisfies you. The price per pizza was decent as well, especially for the size of the pizza. This was my first time here but my London colleagues confirmed that the pizza is one of the better ones out there. read more

My wife, kids, and I stopped at Franco Manca on our first night in London to try their renowned sourdough pizza. We were promptly seated since the place wasn't overly crowded. The attentive wait staff ensured our orders arrived promptly, and we were delighted with the delicious pizzas and perfectly paired beer. A return visit is definitely on the cards. read more

...Franco Manca never disappoints. I visited this location first time, over five years ago, pizzas still taste amazing and consistently great. They use very fresh ingredients which complement each other very well. Customer service is efficient in a good way and you don't feel rushed. There are few appetizers and salads on the menu but pizzas are the stars of the show. Prices are reasonable. I ordered no. 6 with Mortadella added and glass of white wine. I was happy camper. read more

11.11.19 We're leaving London on the 12th, just getting a quick bite for the night nearby where we stayed. The pizzas are very different. It was made with a sourdough bread. So it was more chewy. I can't remember exactly what we ordered but it was with mozzarella, mushroom, and ham. It wasn't great but it was good and different. It was something I've never tried. Worth trying. read more

Just a great, thin crust pizza. The dough and crust was out of this world. Also got the homemade lemonade.

I've had good experiences both times I have been/ordered from here. The first time I went here, I had the meat special. It was a delicious pizza and not very expensive. The issue I had was that they just seemed overwhelmed, and there was not great organization. We had 3 or 4 people help us and there no communication between our hosts, so we didn't end up getting our water until we were about to leave. The second time I ordered for takeout. I got the garlic bread with cheese and it was amazing. It was larger than I expected, and for ~£5 it was more than bargain. It made a great late night snack for two nights in a row. read more

Walked by this joint and the menu outside captivated us. Such cheap prices for a good selection on pizza toppings and styles. It was a fairly busy Thursday night, and there were only a couple tables available. We were seated right next to this couple, only inches away, as if we were actually having dinner with them. Very compact space, yet they made it work. Actually a cute indoor area, just gets a bit chaotic due to the limited space. The menu is plain and simple, very self-explanatory at that. Their pizzas are unique as they are handmade and placed in an enormous wood fire oven. Their cheese just stretches and goes on and on, it was honestly really delicious. Really thin crust as well, and can perfectly be folded into a taco for you to consume. We ordered the #2: tomato, mozzarella, and basil to keep it simple. We did enjoy our experience, and found the prices extremely reasonable. The only downfall is that our waitress never checked on us until we were all done with our pizza. Our water was completely out as well, and she kept checking on the table next to us. So we did feel a bit off. Regardless, good food with good prices! read more

Excellent oven bake pizza made fresh to order. Took my two boys and wife with no reservation. They were excellent. Pizzas were cooked fantastically and the staff were great with my boys. Homemade tiramisu is a must before you leave !!! Very well done Franco Manca! read more

Wanted a bite after a night of drinking. London is a weird city in that, after 9, most pubs close the kitchen and most restaurants close. With the only other nearby options at 10:30 a kabob shop or McDonalds, we gave this a try. Small cozy place with good service. It's Neapolitan style pizza, so know what you are getting into. Real wood-fired oven in the back. Nice crust with a good char, tasty toppings. Not outstanding, but decent enough and quite inexpensive for London. Nothing I'd travel across the city for, but a great local choice and if I lived in the neighborhood I would visit weekly. read more

We happened to stop by on a night they had a reservation for a large party so seating was limited. We wanted to try the sourdough pizza so we opted to wait until a table opened up since there were just 2 of us. Service was good despite the limited seating and language barrier - staff was friendly. We added the spicy lamb sausage, which turned out to be a nice add on to our tomato, mozzarella & basil pizza. I had their lemonade and my husband had the Aperol Spritz. I'm used to having ice served with my drink but lemonade came room-temperature in a bottle, which I poured out into a cup. Either way it tasted refreshing enough. The Aperol Spritz came with ice but was a little too strong for me. Overall, a good experience. read more

Looked up places to go for pizza around me and this was suggested, it had a super long line to get in so I decided to order take out! The wait was only 10 mins which was really convenient and smelled really really good! Got home just to find the pizza wasn't cut.. cold (only a 5 min walk home) and THREE pieces of basil ... I ordered TWO of the margarita pizzas....this doesn't look like a margarita pizza LOL. Quite disappointed :/ I'm giving 2 stars only because it is tasty... at least I like cold pizza too. read more

I've been to many a Franco Manca and the menus are simple but the food is great! It's an excellent sourdough pizza that won't disappoint. They offer a decent range of pizzas, don't expect an Hawaiian and the usual sides of a chain pizza joint. I like the simpleness of the menu and a good atmosphere. The drinks are a 'no name' logo and are decent but not the best. When you get the bill, you'll be pleasantly surprised as the prices are good for what you get. One thing that disappoints is the service and it's not just this location but other locations that I've been too. It's like it's trendy to have sub par service and keep you waiting, this can be improved Franco Manca! read more

Franco Manca - The no. 6 pizza - Pizza Near Me - London, XGL

Absolutely atrocious service. While the food was good, we would never consider returning.

As someone from New York - the land of excellent pizzas, I was skeptical about pizza in London, but Franco Manca was recommended by a fellow NYC native so I gave it a try. I ordered the simple tomato, mozzarella and basil pie; the crust is sourdough, which I have only ever had at an excellent restaurant in Asbury Park, NJ called Talula's and the taste is so unique and delicious, it's hard to understand why it isn't more common. I'm excited to eventually try their other pies. Franco Manco is very simple and not as wild with toppings as Talulas is, but nothing is wrong with simple - it is very good. For the next few weeks in Earl's Court, my stay will be so much better knowing there is a go-to delicious pizza shop down the street, just a little piece of home. read more

Great authentic pizza. We had the #2 and #3 pizzas with house salads. Price for 3 people was very reasonable and the food was awesome. Lamb sausage on the #3 was wonderful with the buffalo ricotta. The crust is outstanding! Table had pepper infused red vinegar and garlic infused olive oil as well as a black pepper grinder on the table. read more

We tried to eat there in in 2019 but it was too busy so we left. Returned last night and were not disappointed! The pizzas are excellent, and the staff is friendly. The only drawback is that I can imagine that when things settle down it will again be too crowded. Will return whenever I am in the area. read more

Stopped by on the way to another bar. Really good pizza. All the ingredients are fresh and the service is great. Small, quaint atmosphere. You really can't beat their prices on a good pizza. Beer selection is limited but that's not what you come here for. read more

Delicious pizza with a unique chewy crust, at a great price. God bless those signature brick ovens. As a testament to how good this pizza chain is, I will share a short story of how I found myself deep in a Franco Manca obsession last year. Every week I ordered a pizza just to fold it into a bastardized taco, shamefully consuming it in the privacy of my flat in under 10 minutes. It wasn't feelings of regret that made me stop, but my flatmates citing health concerns. read more

They say first impressions are lasting ones but in the case of this great place it was the first place my son and I had dinner while in London and the last place. We ate here twice and the pizza was great the first time and even better the second! Great vibe, great service. Thank you for making our London experience even better! read more

Outstanding pizza, I will be back. The dough is something special. Trust me you will not be disappointed. Oh and the ambiance and feel of the place is warm and welcoming! read more

We went to the location outside the earls court train stop. It was a last minute last night meal but, was a huge success. The pies are reasonably priced and good enough to share between two people. The staff was friendly. Great local chain! read more

A small ambient and a limited menu, but the Pizza are real Pizza as per italian rules and tastes and are baked in a blessed wood oven. Pizza here tastes excellent and fare well with best native Neaples Pizza (I am Italian and passionate about Pizza, I can speak). I would appreciate more variety on Pasta course and perhaps more chioce on other main dishes, but then the price will unavoidably be higher. Always crowd and this is a good sign. High quality/price ratio. read more

In London on holiday. Tried it based on reviews. Got a couple of Margarhita pies. One pie can feed two folks. Enjoyed the sourdough crust. Prepared, cooked and served fast. Got a no label beer in a bottle. Not bad, but not impressed. Would go back and would recommend. Just suggest you pick another beer. read more

Ordered a tomato mozzarella pizza for takeaway. Was said to be ready at 20:30. Got in at 20:35 and they seemed confused by the fact I had ordered. If I had to guess they put in the pizza then because when I had it 10 minutes later it was extremely undercooked. Originally rated three starts for price but changed to 2 because the first bite didn't encapsulate how truly raw this pizza was read more

Loved that it was a real Italian Pizza spot; meaning that everyone working there was Italian. Really delicious Sour Dough pizza cooked in a brick oven! The Chorizo Pizza and the Mozzarella/Ricotta pizza (no mushrooms, left those off) was really yummy! Will definitely be back on our future trips to London. read more

The wood fire pizza here is amazing ! I went with some friends & I was really happy with the crust of this pizza. We ordered several pizzas and salad's we ordered #3 with sausage and no tomato sauce & it was awesome !! The others we ordered were specials of the day ,one was a meat special they all enjoyed it . The pizzas are quite large ,enough to share with several people if you also share salads. We shared several salads that had mozzarella on them that were also very fresh!!! read more

Found this restaurant based on research for someplace close to our flat that had good pizza. We were looking forward to a nice dinner. We walked in, a half hour to closing time, and were greeted by an impatient waiter. We could tell that he didn't really want to serve us but felt obligated because they were still open. We were never given menus so we found some ourselves. The very same waiter who clearly didn't want us happened to be the waiter for our table. He asked if we were ready to order although he could clearly tell we were not as we had just sat down. We left and went across the street to Zizzi. Had great service and were welcomed warmly. read more

Visiting London from the USA and we are staying in Kensington (Earl's Court Tube Stop). Stopped here after a long day sightseeing. Great pizza - wonderful "slow food" concept Italian. Fire baked pizza in a brick oven using their own prepared sour dough crust and fresh ingredients. Healthful, fresh, very tasty, reasonable prices and great casual atmosphere! Exit Earl's Court Tube on the main exit (Earl's Court Road). Turn left upon exiting (stay on same side of street). Just a few blocks walk. You won't regret it. We will be back this trip. read more

We were staying in a hotel nearby and found this place by accident. Place was busy when we arrived and got lucky when a table for 2 opened up. Staff were friendly and answered any questions we had. Pizza is just as good as pizza I've experienced in Rome. First time where we had to cut our own pizza, but it wasn't a problem. Tried our their in-house limoncello, which was pretty good. Service wasn't a problem even with the packed house. Great option when we plan to stay in this neighborhood again. read more

This is the best place if you wanna true, Italian pizza. Trust me, I am Italian! Every time you will find it full of people and more outside waiting to be seated. That must be a nightmare for the waiters, who, by the way, are not all Italians. read more

Franco Manca has a very high standard, and this one won't disappoint you. The service is very welcoming. I don't give it 5 stars because I give them only to few outstanding places in Naples read more

Firstly it saddens me that I ate at a chain restaurant. But we made the decision to try out Franco Manca tonight in Earls Court. Menu and pizza options are limited and a bit suspect. Don't come here expecting pepperoni or Hawaiian for example. These pizzas are Neapolitan traditional, all about that soft and smooth textured sourdough crust and base. Score for this pizza chain versus the rest is a solid 4/5. read more
