Pizza Pilgrims (Soho)
4.5

Pizza Pilgrims is the pizzeria brothers Thom and James Elliot built after quitting their jobs, buying a three-wheeled Piaggio Ape in Calabria and driving it 4,500 km back to London through Campania, Tuscany, Piedmont and Emilia-Romagna, learning pizza on the way. They fitted the Ape with an oven and sold pizza from it at Berwick Street Market for 18 months before opening this, their first permanent shop, on Dean Street in 2013. The dough ferments 48 hours, and the dessert to know is the Nutella pizza ring.

Great gluten-free pizza, delicious toppings, and friendly staff like Luigi. Cocktails were SO good, though one reviewer disliked their initial drink.

    Lovely place, covent garden one was closed but luckily this one wasn't! Me and my boyfriend grabbed a last meal before catching our coach and were told it would be really quick to make. Even with gluten free bases the food came quick, was gorgeous, perfectly crunchy crust with a softer slice and the toppings were delicious. I really didn't like my cocktail and they replaced it with another without me needing to pay for it. The server has a partner who is gluten free so he was really understanding of my dietary needs and was really friendly and generous, giving us all 5 sauces when we ordered the 3 for £5. Reasonably priced, great sized gluten free pizzas and tasty drinks! Every member of staff we spoke to was lovely. The vibe is immaculate and the toilet, while there is only one, was very fancy and clean.

    Spend a lovely evening last week. Service was truly fantastic. And gluten free pizza is AMAZING. Luigi was my server and not only was he super friendly and kind- he also treated my gluten allergy very seriously and took time and effort to explain to me in depth their protocols. I felt very safe and in good hands! And not only was the service great, the gluten free pizza was so, so, so delicious. I genuinely loved it more than most “regular” pizzas I had before I was diagnosed. The food and service were so good, that I still think about it like a week and a half later haha. I could not recommend it any more. I know where my first stop will be next time I visit London :)

    First time Pizza Pilgrims. Our server, Jemima, was very lovely! We had a great dinner. You can taste the quality of the ingredients. The dough was incredible, and chewy. We also tried some dips, their april special collab with Dishoom was amazing. Will definitely come back next time we crave pizza.

    We’ve always enjoyed Pilgrims Pizza and came again to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing.

    One of the best gluten free pizzas I’ve ever eaten. I’ve been strugling trying to find GF places to eat and this pizza was amazing.

    Affordable pizzas with a great variety. The crust is thin but pleasantly chewy, so even the edges are worth finishing. Drinks are a bit on the pricier side, but there’s a good selection of sodas and beers that pair well with the pizza. The interior feels a bit old, but it’s clean.
