About The Pizza People

The Pizza People is an independently owned, family-run pizza restaurant in London, at 40 The Broadway. The kitchen makes its dough in house every day and ferments it for 24 hours. Each base is then hand-stretched and fired in a wood oven to produce a Neapolitan-style pizza. The menu includes a Margherita, and guests can also build their own pizza. Vegan and gluten free options are available, so mixed groups can order from the same menu. A Halloumi Ribbon Salad is on the menu for anyone who wants something other than pizza. Dips come alongside the pizzas.

Good to know

“The Pizza People is an independently owned family run pizzeria serving artisan wood fired pizzas with a focus on high quality fresh ingredients. We use a 24 hour fermented dough, made in house daily, which is hand-stretched and wood fired to create a Neapolitan style pizza with a slightly chewy and charred crust. We have a good variety of pizzas on the menu but you are welcome to create your own and we do have gluten free and vegan options available. We are passionate about serving delicious, artisanal pizza in a relaxed and informal environment and we look forward to welcoming you soon.”

Customer Review Summary

Diners most often praise the pizza itself, describing bases that are light, crispy and chewy with a slight crunch and a moreish crust, and a long slow rise they can taste. The Sausage & Roquito is singled out as a highlight, with the Mushroom & Truffle, the Margherita and a vegan pizza also named. Several call the flavour authentic and the ingredients good quality. Close behind are the sides. The Halloumi Ribbon Salad, Heritage Tomato Salad, Courgette Salad and coleslaw are described as fresh and full of flavour, and one reviewer recommends trying the dips. Reviewers repeatedly describe the staff as friendly, warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere as chilled, with music at a good volume. Several compare the pizza favourably with high street chains, and the pricing is called reasonable for what is served. One reviewer recalls a team member talking them through the menu, explaining where the produce came from and sharing the story behind some of the dishes.

    “Some of the best pizza we've had. My (new) wife and I visited Pizza People before our wedding as we had booked their sister company, Woodfired Wonders, to cater our big day. We wanted to try the food beforehand and honestly, it completely exceeded our expectations. The pizzas were incredible. We tried the Pepperoni, Margherita, Grilled Veg, Sausage & Roquito and Mushroom & Truffle, and every single one was outstanding (Alex did half and half on the pizzas). The bases had that perfect balance of being light, crispy and chewy, the toppings were generous without being overwhelming, and you could really taste the quality of the ingredients. The Sausage & Roquito pizza was a particular highlight, but genuinely there wasn't a single dish we wouldn't order again. The salads deserve a special mention too. The Heritage Tomato Salad, Courgette Salad and Fresh Coleslaw were all absolutely top tier. Fresh, vibrant and full of flavour, they were so much more than just sides and complemented the pizzas perfectly. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the service. Alex was fantastic throughout our visit. It wasn't just friendly service, you could tell he genuinely cares about the food and the experience he creates for his customers. He took the time to talk us through the menu, explain where certain produce came from and share the story behind some of the dishes. His passion and knowledge really shone through, and it made us appreciate the food even more. It's rare to come across that level of enthusiasm and passion for the food. We left the restaurant feeling even more excited about having Woodfired Wonders cater our wedding, and thankfully the food was every bit as good on the big day as it was in the restaurant. We'll definitely be back and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pizza People to anyone looking for exceptional pizza, incredible fresh food and genuinely brilliant service.”

    “I would highly recommend this place if you are in central London The quality of the pizza is really good .It reminds me a perfect Italian taste. Different options for toppings as well. - The staff at The People's Pizza are friendly and welcoming. They are attentive without being intrusive and seem knowledgeable about the menu. The service is efficient, with orders being taken and delivered promptly. Any special requests or dietary restrictions are handled with care. - The atmosphere is casual and inviting, making it a great spot for both a quick bite and a relaxed meal with friends or family. The decor is simple but stylish, contributing to a cozy environment. We went during the evening and we had to wait for few minutes for seat but plenty of space - Prices are reasonable considering the quality , portions. - They have vegan options, we have ordered vegan veggie and vegetarian pizza. If you cannot finish it up, you can always take away.”
