Franco Manca in Newham

A Franco Manca stall serving delicious pizzas with efficient and friendly ordering process.

Stumbled on the newly open pizza place. 6 options on the menu ? Pizza was decent and tasted good, very thin base, so not very filling (personal taste). Starters was tasty but at £5 ea for a small single serving, this is extortionate along with the charges for a bit of dip sauce. Soft serve ice-cream was also small and expensive.. spending £100+ for 2 in a pizza joint ... NO. Not again I'm sorry. Staff were super friendly and nice though.

Fresh over baked pizza, absolutely delicious 🤤

After five years of living in this city, I’ve finally found the perfect pizza spot. The service is amazing, the people working there are extremely nice and is the perfect place for a break after a long day of shopping and fun with the family and friends. I will definitely visit again xx

The only pizza chain I’d recommend as an Italian. Authentic pizza and great service. I’ll be back

I am Italian and I went to Franco manca to enjoy an Italian pizza after a few years of not having pizza at all. I thing this was the worst experience so far with this chain: pizza was row but burnt at the bottom, it had a very bitter dough, the mushroom were cut very thin and got burnt and the ham was really low quality. This place changed drastically in the last 2 years. I remember coming here and enjoy the pizza that used to be similar to what you get in Italy. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case.

They were very gentle and nice with Thier service

I don’t like the pizza was so oily

I came from Italy and was looking for a pizza, and taif on of the chef just i wanted and remind me of back home, i just gonna say Thank you taif for the pizza it was delicious and thank you for making it the way I wanted🤗🤗

we always come to this place...not only the pizza is the best,but also the staffs are well behaved.. Its the best pizza in London

Had pizza from here! The margarita was so good. Compliments to the pizza Chef!!

Went to Franco Manca recently and I have to say it was incredible! Shout out to the pizza chef, the food was Fantastic!! Great service and friendly staff. Highly recommend this place to everyone!!

The food made by the pizza chef was amazing.

Pizza chef was great, recommended me a nice order and I enjoyed! Does not disappoint!

I had an incredible experience at Franco Manca in Stratford, thanks to the amazing pizza chef! The pizza was absolutely delicious—perfectly crisp on the outside with a soft, airy crust that melts in your mouth. I’ll definitely be back for more.

Best pizza in London and the team is very welcoming. Had great experience there.

Pizza was undercooked and dough was raw. One of the worst pizzas ive had. Asked to put back in the oven and apparently wasn't allowed to

I’m sorry, this’s not the Italian pizza, in London there is so many pizzeria better the Franco Manca. Trust me I born with the pizza.

Lovely place, lovely people serving great food. Staff front and back of house always remember their regulars plus their orders. Food is cooked in ovens in front of you, so you know it's coming out fresh and hot for you. Seasonal changes in the menu keeps things fresh and old favourites are kept or return when customers demand it.

Amazing Pizza! Staff so Friendly! Thank you for helping me choose Hera!

The worker wearing classes at the Westfield startford branch is a rubbish worker. I asked for any vegan vegetarian options and he showed me a list of the pizza's that are vegan. I asked him where on the actual menu is the pizzas you pointed out and he was struggling to point them out. Plus the vegan menu wasn't even detailed properly it looked to me as if certain ingredients are vegan. After talking to him that took long minutes then did I find out that all the vegan ingredients come together in the pizza. It was so hard to communicate with him honestly.

Lovely pizza I ll definitely come back

Had the Truffle mushroom pizza and I personally thought it was mediocre. The sourdough base and pizza flavour was unfortunately bland. It could have had more cheese and mushrooms as also quite dry.

Fantastic pizza at Franco Manca! The service was top-notch, number 9 pizza was great. Highly recommend!

Customer service terrible. Especially male manager - I bought £20 worth of food. As it is not a restaurant but a food court you have to take your pizza on a tray and find a place to sit down. As I sat down the coke I bought slid off the tray!!!!! And went all over me. I went up to the man at the till and asked for another coke as I was wet through it was clearly obvious what happened. He refused and said he would not give me a coke. He was so rude, I resorted to tears. He then gave me a coke but his response was ‘ I can give you a coke but I now have to pay for your coke ‘. Terrible, terrible customer service.

Delicious Margherita pizza but crust was slightly thick for my liking. Good flavour in the sauce and cheese. Clean place and quick service.

Ordered a gluten free pizza and a regular pizza. They sent two regular pizzas. Asked if they would send another. They refunded only the gluten free surplus of £2. They said we received the regular pizza so we must pay for it. Super lol. Imagine.

I recently visited Westfield, Stratford restaurant for the first time with my friends, and I must say we were all very disappointed with the vegetarian options. I ordered a veg pizza, which sounded great on the menu, but when it arrived, it was a complete letdown. The pizza was overly salty and dry, making it practically inedible—not just for me, but for all my friends as well. The toppings were minimal, with only a few small pieces, and overall, it felt like a waste of money. Important :- Additionally, I ordered a lemonade, but when I took a sip, I noticed that the glass had a broken edge, which cut my lips. This is a serious safety issue that should be addressed before serving customers. Overall, our experience was far from satisfactory, and I hope you can improve the quality of your food and ensure the safety of your glassware in the future.

Service was quick but the Margherita pizza we ordered was quite average and chewy.

Dry pizza, on a cheese paste base not looking particularly fresh and with a few ingredients thrown on top. Clearly no effort or care, it just wasn’t a good meal. And a weird tasting lemonade. Yeah..not coming back.

This was one of the best Italian pizzas in London. Now, the choice of toppings are not Italian style, the quality of the products is very poor, and worse the dough itself is a chewing gum. I went all the way to Westfield, despite the fact that I hate shopping centers, just to enjoy an authentic Italian pizza, I went back home extremely disappointed 😞

Really good pizzas, well worth the money (compared to the more expensive chains one floor up), and they were pleasant, kind and fast!

Without doubt the driest pizza I’ve ever eaten. I had the Franco’s Favourite. The dough was tasty as were the toppings of Smoked beef, rocket, capers and mozzarella. There was no tomato sauce or any sauce kind of base. I only remembered to take a photo after I had a couple of hours.

You again how many pizza are you gonna eat

one of the best authentic Italian 🍕❤️

Pepperoni is amazing. Great customer service from Tini. I will definitely come back.

I always have the same pizza and always is perfect, Tini as always a welcoming guy

Amazing pizza, tini has the best customer service ever! He makes you feel so comfortable! Keep up the good job

pizza was wonderful as always and the waiter Tini he was such a welcoming person and knows a lot of things about Pizza

Excellent service from Tini and great food

Nice area in the shopping center, we ate tasty pizzas and we found a very friendly and nice staff that made we felt like at home.

We went to Westfield Stratford, fancied a pizza, and headed upstairs for Pizza Express. On the way, we came across Franco Manca, which we hadn’t had a good experience with previously but blamed the takeaway distance. My wife and I decided to give their sourdough pizza a second chance and ordered a veg special. Unfortunately, we didn’t enjoy the quality and found the ingredients poorly filled. My wife rated it 2/10, and I gave it a 4/10. Sorry, guys—do your business analysis and get this pizza right.

Very nice pizza and the team was amazing fast service waiting time for the pizza was 5 min in other places in food court was more than 20min

The lady at the counter was rude and didn't look like she liked doing what she was doing. The experience made the food less desirable. The pizza wasn't great either. The crust was burnt and too hard to even consume, so I had to cut the whole crust out, the rest of the pizza was alright.

There is a lady with 3 kids that have ordered a pizza, and they couldn't help her to cut the pizza for her. Even if you don't do it normally, I'm sure that your cook has a big knife that can slice the pizza for her. Come on, she is by herself with 3 kids, and you can not slice the pizza.

Great food. Highly recommend! Amazing pizza!!!

I’ve been in London for my holiday and I visit this restaurant in Westfield. Very Italian flavour and friendly staff!

Best Pizza, best service and nice atmosphere. Highly recommended

I have been a Franco Manca customer for years and visited most of their stores across London. This is the first time that the quality of the pizza was so low that I didn't even finish it. We had the marinara pizza and it came with nearly no tomato sauce, the dough was uncooked and the garlic was burnt. My recommendation is to avoid this venue.

Lovely pizzas fast service even though it was a busy friday night,

A nice food court version of Franco Manca, quick service and same standard that you expect across the chain. Great quality as always, and the seating in Westfield food court is quite nice given the size and busy-ness of the shopping centre.

Great pizza and texture, just needed more flavour and had to buy sauces separately. Waited a while for the pizza as they were busy, my friends got their food first from other food joints in the court.

We visited westfield for a late lunch. The service we received from Tini was friendly, the food came quite fast and it was delicious 🍕

Great pizzas, amazing sourdough pizzas so tasty. Can't believe how many people leave the outside crust ! The staff are so friendly and helpful. They helped me with my Franco Manca app that wasn't working as it should but now it is, thank you. Love the pizzas and your wine.

Talk about trying to reinvent the wheel. This overly fancy place produces an underwhelming product.

We were 2 people,ordered 2 Margherita. The pizza was small,the dough was still raw,the tomato sauce quite sour. I've eaten better frozen pizza for half of the price. Gotten worse over the years.

Brexit at it's best here. None of the pizza maker was italian. Sauce was saulty. Kind of indian bread more than pizza. Not as good as it used to be.

Pizza used to be amazing here, but it's now just above average and prices are hardly justifiable for the products offered

Pizza was freshly made, individual ingredients were good but for some reason the pizza just didn't hit the mark. Far from bad just above average. Took around 15mins to come and they wasn't particularly busy. Not exactly sure why. Overall just average.

The service was wonderful. I visited this establishment yesterday and the guy that served me was very personable. I ordered the anchovy and caper pizza, something which I’ve ordered before. It was pleasant. Didn’t tickle my tastebuds totally but that was down to me getting the wrong pizza for that day.

The service was incredibly fast, and the staff was so friendly. The pizza was cooked perfectly. Whenever I crave pizza, Franco Manca is my top choice.

Very nice pizza, very nice staff especially the waiter Tini he did such a warm welcome for us. Thank you guys

I've been visiting the startford branch for many years and always seen the same manager. I've asked him many times as you serve Halal lamb and I'm a Muslim would the pizza chef wash hands prior to making my pizza, always said yes that's not a issue. On my last visit this was not the case, I was told sorry unfortunately he can't do that as it's busy, baring in mind I'm the only customer there and nobody behind me. It didn't feel very inclusive, felt like I wasn't treated as a valued customer as it was need for me, instead he turned away my custom. So there's no point advertising you're serving Halal meat if you can't respect a customers need, a simple request mind you. So they either said they had washed hands previously and I gave them the benefit of doubt. But certainty I'll be avoiding this establishment from now on, it's sad because it was a family favourite. It's more disappointing this came from teh store manager, it's probably time to retrain him or perhaps a change of management is needed (short guy with dark hair). To all Muslim customer please be careful whilst choosing this place to dine. Absolutely horrible experience and thought others should be aware.

Had an amazing pizza (Number 10 Special). Really liked the puréed yellow cherry tomatoes. I added caramelised red onion as an extra topping to the pizza as I thought it would enhance and add more flavour to it. It was perfect!

Just had the most amazing pizza experience at Franco Manca in Stratford! The pizza was delicious with a perfect crust and fresh toppings. The service was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. What's more, the prices were so reasonable for the quality received. Highly recommend Franco Manca pizza at Westfield Stratford for a fantastic meal that won't break the bank! 🍕👏

Just had the most amazing pizza experience at Franco Manca Westfield Stratford! The pizza was delicious with a perfect crust and fresh toppings. What truly stood out was the exceptionally friendly and cordial service. The staff went above and beyond, making us feel valued and at home. Combine that with the fantastic prices, and you've got a winning combination! Highly recommend Franco Manca Westfield Stratford for a delightful meal with top-notch service.🍕👏

Warm friendly place, nice tasty pizzas

Good service and food of the staff in Stratford branch. The food is big in portion and affordable price

Had pizza for the first time. I was not impressed. I asked for spiced chicken as extra and the chicken tasted blend. There was hardly any basil or any other toppings Not worth the price. I wouldnt eat again unless their menu changes.

If you like italian style pizza , this is a good place. Friendly staff.

STAFF MEMBER WAS VERY RUDE TO MY FAMILY

Very bad experience about Staff member

Good taste and good service. Staff are always friendly. The quality however varies and lately has dropped. I've been coming here for almost 3 years but in the last few months, i wasn't that impressed anymore. Sometimes the pizza comes out of the over too fast and is not cooked well. Tha dough is uncooked. If it stayed in 3 minutes and bottom and edges are done but the middle is still raw, maybe the oven is too hot? Shame because the mix of ingredients is usually good and tasty

Pizza was amazing! Always fresh pizzas. I will get the same thing for my family and they love it. Great service from the staffs at this brunch. They are very quick, friendly and welcoming.

Good sardough pizza. Not a massive variety but good enough

Can honestly say I have never a pizza here that didn’t taste amazing! Always great quality and so fresh. Not oily like other takeaway pizzas. Would say out of all the “mainstream” pizza places this one tops them all

The pizza from Franco Manca was tasty and the service was great, even told me that the pizza I picked (for my sister and mother) didn't have a tomato base so that I could add one on. As it's in the food hall, you don't get the Franco Manca experience, but the food was still as good as the ones in the restaurants. The pizza really hit the spot after a long day in London.

You always know a pizza is good when their most basic pizza, the Margherita tastes so good. The sourdough was the stand out for me. The staff were friendly and service was quick. It's in the food court area, so sometimes it can be difficult to find a seat but definitely worth a visit. I highly recommend this place.

During my visit to Franco Manca in Westfield Mall Stratford, I had a delightful experience with their pizza. The pizza was undoubtedly really good, with a perfect combination of flavors and a delicious crust that left me satisfied. However, I did encounter a small communication issue when I asked one of the staff if the pizza had a tangy taste. Unfortunately, he seemed to have difficulty understanding my question, which led to some confusion. While it might have been a language barrier or misunderstanding, I couldn't shake the feeling of him being slightly rude in his response. Despite this minor hiccup in communication, the overall dining experience was enjoyable, thanks to the delectable pizza they serve. I would recommend giving Franco Manca a try, especially if you're a pizza enthusiast looking for a mouthwatering treat while shopping at Westfield Mall Stratford.

I went to this place with a friend of mine. The order took longer than what I expected for a pizza and the focaccia bread was dry.

Been a couple of times and not been disappointed.

Great food. They do fantastic takeouts. Would recommend 🥰

Very friendly staff and quick service

Coming here rather often, enjoying the food every time. Quality pizza every Time and friendly people from the management to the chefs.

I was there on Saturday 24/06/23 around 1 pm very busy time..but I was surprised that the service and pizza was so good,I spoke with one guy from Italy I think aldo (I'm not sure ) and he suggested me pizza number 9 and the pizza was sick ,I definitely recommend If you around Westfield.

Absolutely great experience and Daniel, the manager is an absolute Gem!

Pizza’s great as usual, cashier girl looked like she wanted to die! Courtesy doesn’t cost anything…

Waste of money waste of time . Rubbish food I ever tried in my life don’t try .

Absolutely waste of money. The burnt pizzas and rude staff. Will never ever visit again.

Surprisingly one of the better Franco Manca experiences I have had. I was surprised because it is in a mall, but it was genuinely very fresh and delicious. The ingredients are the same and I think not being in a restaurant, if you collect your food right away the pizza is very hot and fresh. I enjoyed the special with ricotta. I would come back. I have been a long time diner at Franco Manca from back when it was in Brixton market so I think this one, except for atmosphere bc it’s a mall, is just as tasty as I remember.

1. Worst pizza. 2. Awful taste. 3. Overpriced 4. Pizza bread was overcooked and bitter to taste. 5. Besides being over salty, it was topped with salty fish. 6. The only thing good was diet coke(definitely overpriced) as it helped me to wash the pizza down. 7. Garlic bread was salty and the Worst I have had. 8. Awful and Worst experience.

Very nice pizza, as always, good location in the food court too.

Great food, touch pricey though

Best Best Best Marguerita in a thousand miles radius

Honestly one of the best pizzas I've ever had

Pizza took a long time, we saw a pizza dropped and think it was ours. Not an issue to wait for another, but they should have let us know.

They charged me 16 pounds for a small bottle of water, small flat piece of raw dough (supposed to be a focaccia) 🤦‍♀️ the surprise was the burrata. Was a small sour dry mozzarella. No service. Unfortunately I didn’t eat there because the smells of many foods made me nauseous so I asked to a box to bring with me. I found out only when I returned home. I tried to call the restaurant but was close. I know very well how must be a good burrata. First because I love it, second because I’m tour leader and guide so in Campania I used to visite with tourists group places where they made the best burrata and mozzarella in the world. Now I understood why in the other Westfield Franco manca is close.

The food is horrible, I got the halal chicken topping and it was horrible, smelt and tasted funky. I felt sick after eating it. Pizza is dead too. Don’t waste your money on this place

Mÿ grandson is very fussy about the texture and tastes of his pizza. The presentation is also very important to him. He loves Franco Manca!
