    Cheap and fast, but unfortunately just not good at all. You can get a margherita for about 5 quid and anything with toppings can be a few pound more. They can usually turn out the pizza in 10 minutes or so even if you order it there, not sure how they are for click and collect. Drinks are cheap as well. The downside - it's really bad. Absolutely zero flavour and the crust is awful. I understand it's super cheap but it's also not really filling because I rarely touch the crust. You're much, much better off going to Sud Italian in Spitalfields where a few quid more can get you an amazing, amazing margherita also fresh to order. Bummer because I really wanted to like this place! Probably still a decent option for students, in all fairness.

    Delicious, thin crust and cheesy pizza with fresh ingredients. Reasonably priced and quick. Nothing exceptional about the location, or inside. But it was lively and open later than most places around here, which saved us hungry Americans!

    For my travelers on limited or no data.... THEY HAVE WIFI! It's pretty high speed too, so you can stay connected as you grab a bite. Some of the things I tried you can find below; Frozen Raspberry Mojito: very refreshing, but not to strong in terms of alcohol... I had about 3 and nothing really kicked in. Margarita Pizza: very tasty, and light... On terms of pizza it would definitely be one of my tops for a meal to tide me over.

    Oh what a find! This place is absolutely awesome! We ordered 4 pizza. The crust is great, very well cooked and the staff is super friendly Customized my pizza with onion, jalapeño, olives and rocket leaves, the pizza is amazing and enough for one person to finish by themselves. The variety of drinks are limited, but enough to go with pizza. The garlic dip and hot sauce are both great to go with your pizza

    I came to visit london from the US and let me tell you this is probably one of the best pizzas I've ever had. It's light thin and so delicious. We ordered two pizzas the margarita and the tropicana both were fantastic. We also got cannolis and a salad both delicious. I do recommend eating at the restaurant instead of ordering take away because it would be straight out of the oven. I will for sure be eating this pizza again and I highly recommend.

    The line moves quickly. First, grab your beverage. Beers, wine, prosecco, mineral waters, sodas, coffee, tea & cocktails. Second, gelato is on offer. Chocolate, white chocolate, pistachio, salted caramel and cookies & creme. Third, mixed olives & dips. Order your salad and pizza. Pay and your given a lighted coaster pager. It will light up within 5 minutes. Pizza comes out of oven quickly. Grab it at pickup area. Pizza is wafer thin and crispy. Toppings are fresh, delicious and savory. Great value for your money.

    Great pizza although the options are pretty boring compared to other pizza places. Also dinking a star because I would be charged £1 for having the onions replaced by something else. Seriously, that is just gouging the customer as it costs you NO extra to just switch an ingredient. So I ended up just getting the Giordano sans onions. Very tasty, thin crust pizza with fresh tomato sauce and a healthy amount of yellow pepper topping. Also cheapppp!!! £5.95 for a 12-inch pizza is a steal.

    My fav pizza spot! :)

    Personally this is my favourite pizza joint in the city. Not only are the crusts thin and crispy and the toppings fresh but for the price of no more than £6.50 a pizza it simply cannot be beaten! My personal favourite is Stagioni as I'm greedy and it's like having 4 pizzas in one, but the carne is also excellent! A few pointers: 1. The olives are great! 2. Definitely have a salad on the side! 3. Drinks selection is limited so don't go expecting a luxury glad of wine. 4. There's no table service but what there is is some seriously speedy pizza making Enjoy.

    They are generous with toppings, especially chicken! It wasn't over cooked and was still moist and tender. Most places serve it dry and barely edible. Glad I came here and would definitely come back. Inexpensive.

    Wow. How have I lived within spitting distance of this place and never eaten here before? It's fantastic! 1) Cheap and beyond cheerful. Pizzas are about £5 for a generous 12 inch personal thin crust pizza. Get a beer or glass of wine plus olives to nibble and you're still under £10 all in. Great value. 2) Fast. My pizza was lovingly made within minutes and came out hot and crispy. 3) Lively. Open seating and loud music makes this a fun weekend dinner with friends. 4) Spacious. Big bonus points for Spitalfields ambiance without cramming you in.

    I discovered Pizza Union right on the doorstep of work almost and I'm so happy I hadn't found it sooner or else I would be the size of a house! Superfast pizzas for between £5 & £7 and they were so good. I've even made a mental note so that I know what I'm going to have next time and there will definitely be a next time!

    Good pizza if you are on a budget. It fills you up but quality could improve. My son really liked it though and he is 14

    This was the very first restaurant we visited during our week-long vacation in London, and it could…read morenot have been a better experience. We're from the States and had just arrived from the airport with our 3-year-old daughter, looking for a quick bite to eat before settling in. Everything was wonderful from start to finish. Our server was fantastic, and Flavia truly went above and beyond. She happened to bring out our food and immediately connected with our daughter, Emma. She was so warm, engaging, and kind that Emma talked about her for the rest of our trip. At the end of the night, the staff started singing "Happy Birthday" to Flavia, and Emma happily joined in. Flavia made Emma feel welcomed not just to the restaurant, but to London itself. To top it off, Flavia even brought Emma ice cream to help celebrate. That level of hospitality and genuine kindness is something special and honestly something we rarely experience back home in the States. Although we didn't get the chance to visit again during our trip, Emma will never forget her first restaurant experience in London thanks to Flavia. Thank you for such an unforgettable memory!

Coming from NYC I didn't know what to expect when it came to pizza in London, but this pizza def met my expectations. The truffle looked scooped on so I spread it throughout the pizza so it was on every bite and added some salt. The pizza is thin enough for one person to eat. At least I ate the entire thing! lol Very good! Next time ill come with other people so I can try the other recommendations like the pork belly and a few other things that were pointed out to me. :)

COST $75 USD/ £55 SERVICE Excellent service, seated immediately FOOD Their pasta was mediocre, but their salmon and steak was delicious! We had a large party so there was a piece of salmon for each person. When it came to the steak, it was the most tender and perfectly salted, but everyone could only get 1-2 pieces for there to be enough for everyone. DESSERT The vanilla cream puff was refreshing and we each got our own tiramisu square. I really enjoyed the cheesecake as well (which was also shared). DRINKS Their hot cocoa was decent, nice to have it with your dessert. OVERALL Enjoyed my time here but don't think the $75 price tag was worth it given how little salmon and steak as the main entree you were given. It was also weird to me that we were given 1 slice of cheesecake for like 4-6 people when they should've just cut them into smaller cubes and individually served everyone. Everyone was breaking this one slide with their own spoon which didn't feel classy at all.
