About Pizza Union Holborn

Pizza Union Holborn is a pizza restaurant on New Oxford Street, walking distance from Shaftesbury Avenue theatres. The kitchen fire-bakes Roman style pizzas to order, turning out a thin, crispy crust in under 10 minutes from a high-temperature oven. The menu runs to fifteen 12 inch pizzas, including Formaggi, Nduja, and Margherita alongside vegan and vegetarian options, plus salads, savoury bites, and gelato. Beer, wine, and frozen cocktails round out the drinks list. Orders are placed at the till, and the room offers a designed seating area for eating in as well as takeaway. It opens seven days a week from late morning into the evening, with the full menu served all day. Tables are walk-in or can be booked in advance, from two people up to groups of fifty.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the thin, crispy Roman-style base, with one diner describing the crust as very crunchy and the pizza arriving within 10 minutes of ordering. Close behind is value, with several calling the pizzas reasonably priced and the drinks well priced for London. One reviewer tried the Formaggi, Nduja, and a chicken, ham and pepperoni pizza and praised the quality meats and fresh toppings, while another points to the iced cocktails. Service is described as friendly, quick and efficient, and the atmosphere as lively, relaxed and good for chatting, with one noting the short walk to a Shaftesbury Avenue show and another the thoughtful options for vegans and vegetarians. The main dissent comes from one reviewer who found the Margherita overcooked, likening it to a cracker with tasteless tomato sauce and very little cheese, though they called the service fine. Several others mention returning repeatedly, and one says they have never been disappointed.

    “Had such a good experience at Pizza Pilgrims in Holborn! The pizza was absolutely delicious — really fresh, full of flavour and the perfect balance of crispy and soft. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was really fun and relaxed. Everything came out quickly and tasted amazing. Definitely a great spot for a casual meal, and I’d happily come back again! 🍕”

    “Pizza Union Holborn is hands down one of the best places in Central London for pizza. The quality is consistently excellent, with fresh ingredients, a perfectly thin and crispy Roman-style base, and pizzas that come out incredibly fast without compromising on taste. The atmosphere is always lively and welcoming, the restaurant is clean, and the team work hard to keep everything running smoothly even during busy periods. The service is friendly, efficient, and professional, making every visit enjoyable. What really stands out is the value for money. It's rare to find pizza of this quality at such affordable prices in London. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch, meeting friends, or having dinner before a show, Pizza Union Holborn is always a fantastic choice. Highly recommended—I keep coming back and have never been disappointed.”

    “A very, very underwhelming pizza spot in Central. Tried their Margherita pizzas and they were overcooked with no taste. Imagine a cracker with a tomato sauce that tastes like nothing and then the most minimal amount of cheese. Some fresh basil to garnish. 😀 Don’t listen to the hype. Service was fine and all but the pizzas were a real disappointment.”

    “Great pizza. Quality meats, fresh vegs (if Ruccola is a veg) Tested 3 variations, Formaggi, Nduja, and one with Chicken, ham and pepperoni (I think) All hit the qulity criteria one hopes to hit. Clean interior, great dedication from the chef. Polite. Really an outstanding pizza place, with very decent prices if the quality was not enough. Would highly reccomend to anyone looking for authentic Italian pizza in the neighborhood. Two thumbs up. Would eat again, and again. :)”
