A lovely corner spot, always so warm and inviting, especially this time of year.... Whether it's a quick stop for coffee or a longer linger for brunch/dinner, you'll find a nice selection of Italian, smoothies, sandwiches, and drinks. In warmer months spill outside to the seating under the awning, and when it's rainy there's always a friendly seat inside. They'll likely even accommodate when you have an off-time menu request, as theh have for me. All this won't be news to the locals who frequent for the service and the food. Weekends you should probably book ahead, especially if you're looking for larger group accommodation. You'll have plenty of harder drink choices as well for those evening visits. I'll return and look for you there. read more

Rubio - Pizza Near Me - London, XGL

Had the chance to visit Rubio for a promotional night and it was absolutely brilliant! The staff are super friendly and the location is very cozy and stylish. A little way off from the busy high streets, this restaurant occupies a beautiful corner space with a large patio and rustic, nostalgic decor. The pizza is delicious with a traditional crust that's not too thin in the middle, a very fruity tomato base and generous toppings. I tried the buffalo mozzarella pizza and it was absolutely stunning. Huge chunks of scrumptious mozzarella, plenty of rocket, a perfect combination. The back wall is covered in vinyl LP sleeves and there's a dj desk. We were lucky enough to have the owner spin records for us, which was a great accompaniment for dinner, a great excuse for some dancing exercise after eating and not too loud to stop us from chatting. Would definitely recommend this location! read more

I got the amazing opportunity to visit Rubio for a pizza and drink promotion night. Their venue is in an unassuming location, away from the busy high streets, which gives it a relaxing and small town feel. I really liked the décor, with a wall of vynil records and some really comfortable seats. I ordered their quattro staggione pizza but swapped out the Italian ham for Parma ham. The server was happy to accommodate this, and was very friendly the whole time. The pizza came out warm, and huge in size. I'm pretty picky when it comes to pizza, and this one lived up to my high expectations. The server brought our table some delicious chilli oil which I would highly recommend. It wasn't too spicy, and had a really nice and fresh taste of olive oil. The pizza had toppings nearly all the way to the crust and was packed full. They don't skimp on anything here. A friend at my table had their calzone which I want to try next time. It was huge and stuffed full. At prices between £10-£13 a pizza, I would say it was good value. The owner of the bar is a DJ and former member of The Shape Shifters who had some chart hits in the noughties. He was kind enough to spin some tunes for us later in the night and spoke briefly about his passion for his new restaurant. Overall, I had a great experience and look forward to returning. read more

Coffee Eat and Beats! Love it! Had a amazing Fungi a la Truffle pizza accompanied by a DJ set played by Max the owner (check out the Rubio web page and social media pages for upcoming music events) So the food and live music is not the only great thing about this place, the interior is designed and decorated with some amazing light fittings and a pretty impressive display of records. I could see this being a great space for an intimate birthday gathering. read more

Rubio's is an unexpected treat. It's a beautiful restaurant, intimate with close tables, comfy chairs, and strikingly moody decor. The thing you'll notice first is the vinyl covers, the wall of the main restaurant is covered with these. It gives a lot of colour, atmosphere and eludes to the bohemian vibe that oozes from this venue. It also gives you an insight into the owner of Rubio's, a local whose other love apart from running a chilled out restaurant is DJing. I ordered the calzone, beetroot and goats cheese starter and a glass of the house red. My friend ordered the atun (tuna, roasted onions and black olives). It was extremely hard to order, I liked the look so many of the pizzas on the menu, the wild mushroom and truffle oil being on my wish list. But I'm a sucker for Calzone, and this was a good one, I found it stuffed with ingredients, filled almost entirely to the edge. The tomato sauce was delicious, it was just so rich, and the dough was backed to a perfect consistency, not too hard, with a nice spongy bite. Being me I added some home made chilly oil to give it a bit of extra bite... absolutely yummy! The beetroot and cheese salad (served on a bed of rocket), was a nice break from the intense flavors of the calzone, I liked the balance of having the fresh with the baked. House wine was absolutely drinkable, not outstanding, but yet there was nothing wrong with it and it complemented the pizza. At £12 for the pizza, £4.50 salad and £4.80 a glass of wine, it very reasonably priced. One tip; we struggled to finish the meal (even though I was ravenous), I'd suggest therefore if you're going as a couple and want starters or deserts you might want to share a pizza. Staff were also pretty friendly, the bathroom was amazingly clean and luxurious (yup it's important) and whilst the owner was DJing, it was at a very reasonable volume, so it was easy to talk with friends. A really nice vibe that I could see being nice for a leisurely brunch which they do also offer. read more

My friend and I were here earlier this week for a Yelp event. The restaurant generously offered us Yelpers free pizza and booze. I got the veg pizza and my friend the truffle pizza. I am a major pizza snob as a native NYer and I have to admit the veg, while loaded with toppings, was only OK. The flavour could have been far more intense. The truffle pizza though tasted delicious and I was jealous of my friend's pie! But the prices and pizzas are very reasonable so if I lived in the area I would probably swing by. read more

Very chill venue. Instantly felt cozy after walking in from the rain. Great service, was greeted warmly by wait staff who were attentive throughout the evening. Excellent pizza menu, so many options. I went to the Napoli- pepperoni, choizo and olives. Annoyingly the olives were not pitted which made it difficult to enjoy the pizza as a whole. Two of the waitstaff where very attentive in warning me. Was a nice surprise to learn the the owner (half of the Shapeshifters) would be planing a DJ set. I was a little worried that a DJ wouldnt fit in with the chill atmosphere created and was happy that it only added to the relaxed atmosphere of Rubio. Highly recommended if you are in the area. read more

Just off of the High Street in Harlesden is Rubio, a cozy looking pizzeria with a funky wall and plenty of good offerings. At around £10-12 for a pizza, and £3-5 for a starter it's decently priced and the quality is definitely there. The garlic bread with mozzarella was a star, perfectly crispy, no sign of any burn and just the right amount of garlic to make you feel it. Normally a fan of NY style pizza (big flavours, big slices) this is a really good alternative when it's not available. I opted for a calzone and wasn't disappointed, it was really stuffed full of cheese, meat and mushrooms and I went in hungry and left full. There was a little spice in there that negated my usual want of chili oil to add a bit more kick to a pizza. The décor is fun, with a wall dedicated to vinyl albums (some of which have records in them so don't mess around too much with them! The owner is a DJ and occasionally spins up tunes in the evening, there's a DJ setup in one corner. In terms of service, the staff were fun and engaging and always kept an eye out for plates that could be cleared away or drinks that may need replenishing. That combined with the food means that it's on my list of places to go to again. If only you were a little more central than Harlesden (although tbh I do seem to end up in that direction more often than not). read more

I had the calzone pizza and it was great. For a spicy option, you can either have chili oil, Tabasco or chili flakes. The portion is also quite filling so really good value. It's around 15 minute walk from the tube, but quite easy to find and has a nice atmosphere. read more

The pizza was very very nice, well packed, nice and juicy, the dough crusty and not to thin for people who like the full dough experience. The service is super cute and friendly, just lovely discrete people. The owner Max is a music lover) dj from Sweden who vanished behind the turntables and served us more vinyl plates. If you are into a good pizza, a loungy atmosphere and good warm funky vibes, give Rubio a go! read more
