Franco Manca in Lambeth

Giovanni is king, super fast and great service

Dealt with 6 kids without any issue!

Hosted 10 children and 5 adults for an 8 year olds birthday supper. Staff were really lovely. Let us drop off the cake earlier, happy to provide lighter, napkins, knife. And we’re good natured about the chaos of a large party with lots of kids. Great value and some yummy specials. Thank you for looking after us so well, my son had a wonderful time :-)

Delicious pizza for a pre-gig tradition 😋

The pizza at Franco Manca is great, but Giovanni makes this particular location my favourite! Giovanni is an exceptional employee who truly goes above and beyond to make every customer feel welcome and valued. His ability to connect with people and show genuine empathy is extraordinary. On one occasion, I ordered a takeaway pizza through the app but accidentally placed it at a location hours away. When I arrived to pick it up, Giovanni immediately knew there was no order placed with his location. That’s when I checked my app and realized my mistake. I assumed I’d have to forfeit that order and pay for another one at the correct location, but Giovanni sprang into action. He called the incorrect location right away and was able to cancel the order just in time—thankfully, I had arrived about ten minutes before the scheduled pickup, and the other location hadn’t started making it yet. His quick thinking saved the day! Giovanni is incredibly competent, kind, and an all-around lovely person. The company is lucky to have him!

Interesting industrial design restaurant. Quick and attentive staff. Good pizzas too.

I celebrated my 4 year old daughters birthday party there on 22nd February. The manager Claudio and main server Roberto were very accommodating. Service, ambiance and food were great. Everyone had a lovely time. Definitely recommend!

Disappointing Experience at Franco Manca Our visit to Franco Manca was frustrating from start to finish. We ordered a bottle of wine, but strangely, no wine glasses were provided—only basic water glasses used for water. When we asked for proper wine glasses, the staff seemed surprised, as if this was an unusual request. After practically begging for any kind of glasses, we were finally given simple Duralex tumblers—not exactly the experience you expect when ordering a bottle of wine. Service was indifferent and slow, making us feel like an afterthought rather than valued customers. While Franco Manca is known for its pizzas, they were nothing exceptional. In the same neighborhood, Mamma Dough serves far superior pizzas with much better service.

Absolutely rude customer service from the manager claim they are busy but hardly are they don't even know what busy is

The best place to eat pizza in London. You forget that you are far from home

FM Brixton have the best ever KP! We had the pleasure to meet Mr Krzysztof! Super friendly efficient, showed us arround, and looks like he really does his job in to absolutely perfection! Lovely person! 😊

Simply security service. Always reserve a spot in advance otherwise you won't get in.

The place looks nice and cosy from the outside and it is, actually. Unfortunately, I ate the worst pizza I have ever had. And the staff was rude.. two girls who were apparently angry or burned out. Maybe it was not the right evening, but I left with a bad feeling.

Your delivery cyclist block wheelchair access on the pavement, Not disabled friendly, your cyclists should not be abusive when mounting the pavement on an illegal customised e-bike, as he barged through pedestrians.

Very good food and atmosphere but very slow service (although it is good when they get around to take your order)

Meat special was lovely (unfortunately couldn’t taste the Stilton though). Service was attentive and the restaurant. The January £5 pizzas is an incredible deal

Like others, waited 90 mins for delivery and then they just cancelled. But they were still open for orders on the delivery service... really poor service.

Ubereats from them took FOREVER. Please hire more people.

Fui allí el fin de semana pasado con mis amigos, el lugar era muy agradable y el personal era muy amable. La pizza era realmente uno de los mejores que he comido en esta zona y nos gustó los cócteles también.

I just wait 1:30 for 2 pizzas and they were cold how disrespectful!!!

Ordered online. Waited for over an hour before they cancelled my order without providing a reason

Gorgeous food and wonderful service. Giovanni and Claudio were particularly helpful and friendly.

Excelente servicio! Nos encantó nuestra experiencia y tuvimos un servicio excepcional de Rado. Hubo algunos contratiempos con la pasta y se requirió un tiempo de espera necesario, y Rado nos cuidó tan brillantemente mientras tanto. Definitivamente volveré. Y la comida era genial!

Not much atmosphere as we went at a very quiet time. As a meat-eater, not a wide range of toppings. If you like vegetables, you'll probably be happier. But the food we had was all excellent. Pizza base was delicious and the pizza, salad and other food was all excellent. Will definitely be going again. The waiter helped me chose as I'm a bit fussy! And love the new location and restaurant. Thank you Brixton.

We had the most utterly bizarre experience here on the 5th Dec. My wife and I were stopped at the door by the security guard saying they were only taking people with reservations. Luckily, against the advice of the friend we were meeting, we had made a reservation online (the organisational anxiety of old age pensioners kicking in!). Our 40ish year old friend was already there (not having had the secret service treatment to get in!). The guard reluctantly let us in. Here's the bizarre part: the place was completely empty, and I mean completely! The restaurant is pretty large and we were the only people there. We were joined shortly afterwards my another 40ish year old friend who got in with no questions. I'm struggling to understand that. Weird! Ageism? Pizzas were good BTW

Wow! Amazing, the best pizza I ever had. Will be back!

Ambos tuvimos pizzas muy buenas en un ambiente agradable, con un excelente servicio de Inés. Buena elección de vinos y buena cerveza también.

Really good service, really good food

Lovely waitress Esme. Wonderful service.Pizzas were great too. Vegetarian and Meat specials.Nativo wine was great v.lue for money. Very happy

Great food and service from esme

Absolutely love this pizza, always fresh and delicious. The menu often changes with new items so it's perfect for those who love to experience new flavours. Staff is very kind and helpful as well, definitely my favourite local pizza parlour!

We were served by Rado who did an incredible job despite the restaurant being extremely busy. He was polite, professional and very welcoming.

Amazing service from Esme, delicious well-priced food and a great atmosphere!!

Honestamente, Ines era uno de los mejores servidores que he encontrado. Desde el momento en que entramos ella estaba allí con una sonrisa en su cara y nos acomodó impecablemente.

An excellent dining experience. Wonderful pizza and even lovelier staff. My friend and I, both vegetarians, were excited to try the mushroom pizza. Apparently, many others felt the same way, because we were disappointed to learn that the kitchen had run out of mushrooms! Thankfully, our server Ines and her manager Rudo, were extremely patient and helpful in advising us on alternatives, and tailoring the order to our tastes. With their recommendations, we were both able to enjoy a delicious custom vegetarian pizza, as well as a complementary limoncello. All the more impressive, was the fact that it was Ines’ first day on the job. Compliments to all the staff, but her especially, for their patience, generosity and excellent customer service!

Had to leave - sat there for 20 minutes and no one took our order.

The food at Franco is always great but Rado provided exceptional service - attentive but not overly so which made the perfect dining experience!

My daughter has a severe gluten allergy, and we were very grateful for the care and attention provided by our lovely waitress, Dante. Despite being gluten-free, the pizza was delicious. We truly appreciate the efforts of Franco Manca in catering to our dietary needs !!

Today, I happened to pass by Franco Manca Brixton after the concert nearby. The food was a top-class shoutout to Dante. She took great care of us. The menu was quite extensive with many options, but she made it easy for us. Coming back for sure.

Excellent service and food.....as always. We popped in for a quick meal after my son's concert - 45 mins before closing. Service was pronto, pizzas perfect and little things like student discounts quickly dealt with as billing time.

Friendly staff such as Matt, made me and the family felt well taken care of, food was delicious and it had a nice vibe too.

Pizza was good but NOT cooked. The dessert ( chocolate and halzenut cake) amazing!! Not too sweet but intense in flavour. THANKS the lovely staff. Waiters were very caring and kind! Prices on average.

Franco manca has now relocated to Atlantic Rd - just an FYI. It has always been delicious, I just didn't go on this occasion.

Great service, great pizza and a friendly atmosphere.

Pizza was amazing and Lucas was a friendly and fantastic host!

I had a fantastic business meeting dinner. Danté took excellent care of us and provided great recommendations. The vibe was really nice, and I'll definitely be returning.

Anyone looking for a fusion of flavours on a sour dough base and friendly staff then Franco Manca Brixton is the place to visit. Well cooked pizza with a variation of mouth-watering toppings baked and presented in quick time. Service with a smile by happy and helpful staff, Chef Elio, Lukasz and Claudio gives you three great reasons to return to Franco Manca Brixton. And for those of you who desire a hint of spice, then we dare you to try the 'Scotch Bonnet Chilli Dip'... it's Franco Fiery Man...ca!

Nice atmosphere and food. Also great service from the supervisor Danté.

We celebrated our anniversary at Franco Manca, and our waitress, Danté, made it perfect. She was attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations. Danté went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable evening. Highly recommend!

Never been here before, but what a great place with excellent food. If you love good pizza, then this is the place for you. The service is very good, friendly and efficient. On a Friday night, the atmosphere was buzy and welcoming. They also offer takeaway, which is very popular. The prices are reasonable for what you get, great food! Enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back.

Great pizza, really friendly service and great value !

Decent pizza and drinks, love the sourdough bases and they have GF options.

True traditional italian pizza. The food was delicious and the staff were great. Claudio provided excellent service and attention. We are in the country for a short period of time and Brixton has so many options. However, we will return to Franco Manca for the fabulous atmosphere and experience!

First rate sourdough pizzas and lovely staff. If you love your pizza this restaurant won’t disappoint.

The pizza was good, the ingredients were good, the service was excellent, friendliness and courtesy.

Popped in for a lunch, can't say it's was a great experience. Waiter was very eratic and didn't even ask us what we wanted to drink, had to catch his attention some time later. Their claim is Pizza in 60 seconds, we'll it is if it's undercooked, raw dough not good. Had anchovy, very thin on toppings, felt could not Complain as waiter so erratic. Quite annoyed when you read all the positive reviews that I got a rough deal. My partner had goats cheese salad which was nice thankfully. The amricano was weak so was an overpriced meal for what I got. Cheers

Ordered 10 pizzas for a birthday party and they messed up the order. Contacted them because pizzas were mislabeled and the brushed me off telling me to email pictures. I did and they never responded. They can't handle big orders and they couldn't tell us which pizzas were vegan so we ordered elsewhere. Save your money and don't waste your time with them. Receipt below for proof.

Wonderful service and food. Our waiter Claudio made us feel very welcome and helped to make a friends birthday special.

The experience in Franco Manca Brixton was very good. The pizza was delicious and the service excellent. Thank you to Fernanda who gave us an excellent customer service.

Always love a bit of Franco Manca. I got the meat special. So spicy and tasty with a beer. It was also the first time I had the cheese cake too. That was amazing, definitely recommend!

Claudio was a fantastic waiter, he was very polite, he explained the menu perfectly, he did a wonderful job.

This is a late review, having attended the Pizzeria in April. Franco Manca is a chain of decent pizzerias and the Brixon branch is no exception. The staff is extra friendly, the toilets are clean and the ambience close to a traditional pizzeria and not too fancy. An eatery where the emphasis is on good fares more than on decor. The pizza is modelled on the Neapolitan type, thin crunchy crust quickly cooked and a sensible topping, not too traditional, yet not over-risky modern. There are vegan choices, but not in the desserts' selection. The beer is local and highly potable. I chose the Franco Manca special and was pleasantly surprised by the abundant brisaola and Parmesan topping. Definitely a good bistro, to spend an evening with friends.

We had a wonderful lunch at Franco Manca and Claudio was so nice and caring! I truly recommend this place and I hope you’ll be lucky enough to be welcomed by Claudio!

Seriously!? The most amazing pizza I have ever had and at a very reasonable price. A whole explosion of flavours with each bite. Fresh ingredients ( its so obvious) and great friendly service. Lucky to have such great eateries in Brixton. FM in a new favouries of mine.

A fixed stop when I go to London, delicious pizza 😋

Very friendly staff and very good pizza chef. Pizza is tasty and well made.

Pizza are not cooked enough. Not enough variety at the menu.

Good pizza and very friendly staff. Great guys 🇮🇹!

We ordered the pizzas with uber eat and when they arrived they were cold. Like not slightly cooled but fridge cold. Absolutely not what we expected unfortunately. The taste of the pizzas themselves were good

Fantastic value food and drink and service was great and friendly. Ingredients tasted quality, and I really enjoyed the pizza with olives, anchovies and capers.

Great meal at Franco Manca. First time at the new location, it's such a great atmosphere with really friendly staff. Value is great, so ended up spoiling ourselves to multiple negronis and three courses. Food was super tasty and great portions. I really enjoyed my butternut squash salad. Thanks for a lovely time!

Great place to have a chilled out excellent pizza. Keep those prices low please ;) in the end.. it is very few ingredients

The staff provided exceptional service, the pizza was delicious, and the affordability ensures I'll be returning for more!

Extremely good Franco Manca in Brixton!

Franco Manca's change of location is worth a visit: high quality pizza, many more tables than before and still within the famous Brixton markets.

Finally , the standard is back having known Franco manca before it became a franchise,I stopped going there as it was terrible in all front. when there last week was greeted with smile happy people and great pizza , great customer service, would def recommended to anyone

Cold soggy pizza best to not get deliverd

Just an easy go to place where it meets all expectations. With wonderful staff who make the experience even better.

Warm service and tasty pizzas 👍

Amazing experience great service by KJ and Beshay 👍🏻 highly recommend .

Loved the experience, loved the service from Claudio

This new (ish) branch of Franca Manca is great. Firstly the way they’ve designed the space and kept the exposed brick and layout is lovely. Tonight we were a large table and looked after by an amazing member of the team called Ines, she couldn’t have been friendlier and more helpful. This is the 3rd week we’ve been there and will be back again next week. Great work by the manager and the team! Tonight I got to meet the manager too called Dante who was equally as lovely. Thanks to all of them, great work guys.

Best pizza in Brixton Claudio always help us to choose the best pizza very helpful and friendly 100% recommend

Fernanda was amazing! Really looked after us!

The Franco Manca's Pizza 👌🤌🙏 I'll be fully prepared for my workout tonight 💪🥊 Thanks for this good meal A french team

Very tasty food, friendly staff and great atmosphere. We will definitely come back again 😊

The beef ragu pizza was so delish Xx

Great food, great service a lovely place to have lunch

Home delivery, pizza was stone cold and pizza dough undercooked, really disappointed…

Waitress couldn’t be bothered to serve us because it was 30mins before closing time

What a wonderful find! I understand that this restaurant has moved from the arcade to this new site. The restaurant is pretty stunning in an urban chic way. The pizzas are tasty, well priced and the service is swift. The ambiance is nice and the ingredients fresh. What more can you ask ! I'll definitely be returning.

Me And My Girlfriend Had Never Been To A Franco Manca Restaurant Before. We Was Completely Wowed From Beginning To End 🍕🍷 The Best Experience I've Had Thank You 😊 🙏 The Wine 🍷 And Pizza Was Amazing Including The Dessert 🍨 Luki & Lucy's & Everyone At Franco Manca Brixton Get A Full 5 Stars 🌟 From Us 🙏

Shout-out to the manager Beshay who was really attentive and helpful during my visiting Franco Manca Brixton, thank you Beshay and the team who were looking after my family and myself, definitely we are coming back.

Great food for the price. Absolutely delighted with the service on Wednesday morning. The supervisor, waiter and chef were all excellent.

The staff and manager on last Tuesday night were amazing. Really nice team in a nice new restaurant, highly recommend.
