London’s melting pot of culture has placed the city as a global contender for having the best food scenes around. You can eat and taste flavours from around the world in one day and the pizza scene is no different. Whether it be a classic leopard spotted Neapolitan cornicone (crust), thin and crispy, or pizza that reminds you of student days; everyone has their own take on this food favourite and that’s what I love, all pizza is good pizza - go find what you like and shout about it!
Chef Elliot Cunningham is the cofounder of the incredible Eld Pizza, which makes fun, seasonal, ingredient-led pizzas, always prepared in the wood oven. He’s curated a list of his favourite pizza spots across the city for you to enjoy.
