Masa desagradable. No fresco, duro, sin subida ni aire. Crust fue desagradable. ¿Parecía que la base era de otro lugar? Una cucharada de cebolla en pizza, asqueroso. Qué clase de pizza es esa. Es extraño que haya buenas críticas allí. ¿Quizás esta gente de Balham no sabe lo que es una buena pizza, o quizás un chef de turno? Mierda general.

Today I went to this pizzeria for lunch with my boyfriend, because we were in Bhalam and we stopped there. The pizza was delicious! Perfect dough, very soft, and quality ingredients. The waiters were very kind and explained the menu to us. If you pass by here, I recommend it.

I had an amazing experience at Franco Manca! The pizza was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked with a fantastic combination of flavors. The crust was perfectly crispy, and the ingredients were fresh and high quality. A special shoutout to Debbi, our waitress, who provided exceptional service with a warm and friendly attitude. She made our visit even more enjoyable! Highly recommend this place for anyone craving great pizza and excellent service.

Franco Manca never disappoints! This heart-shaped pizza was not only adorable but also packed with fresh, vibrant toppings like roasted tomatoes, artichokes, and pesto. The sourdough crust was light, airy, and perfectly charred. A special thanks to the lovely staff, Debora and Maria, for their exceptional service. Highly recommended!

Wonderful experience in London. I managed to eat a really good pizza with fabulous ingredients. You can see and hear that there is a search for only Italian products. Not even in Treviso have I ever eaten such good pizza!!! Worth keeping in mind in London. Highly recommended. Friendly and attentive staff and no endless waiting to eat. Too much :-)

I used to love Franco Manca, the pizzas were great, the toppings were excellent.However, the menu has changed significantly since the last time i visited - it is now just average and has lost its way. We ordered 5 pizzas - they were simply average. Never again. It is now just a typical chain one up from Pizza Hut .

Tuvimos la camarera más amable que nos hizo todos súper cómodos - cuando me iba ella me felicitó y pensé que tenía que dejar una reseña. ¡Es realmente encantador cuando conoces servidores que son personas súper agradables! Su servicio fue absolutamente increíble durante toda la comida, a pesar de que pedimos una mesa tarde en la noche, que sé que es difícil de acomodar. Cualquier camarera que sirvió una mesa de 6 (con dos pizzas veganas) alrededor de las 10 : 00 pm el viernes 12 de julio fue la camarera más encantadora y debe ser elogiada por su amabilidad!

Me and two kids. The children's pizzas were paper thin and burnt. The service was terrible and when I asked to have a small pizza (children's menu) because I didn't want to eat a large pizza, I was told no with a judgmental look. I am Italian and honestly my pizza was absolutely nothing special.

Thursday late afternoon we decided to grab some pizzas from this branch I never been big fan of their pizza but was the “only” choice Anyhow we took a table and literally we were ignored after that We saw another table leaving for the same reason… there was no one taking our order So we ended up leaving too, funny enough that the whole place was empty (3tables were occupied) Also, the pizza dough is chewy with a weird aftertaste … I think franco manca goes back to the “no no” list

Bel ristorante fronte fiume in una zona pedonale, tavoli esterni, staff gentile ed educato Buoni gli antipasti, i secondi e i dolci, buona anche la Pizza! la pasta purtroppo insipida! Quando ho fatto presente al cameriere che era insipida e che in un ristorante italiano si suppone che non lo sia, mi ha risposto che il sale da problemi e che molto clienti non lo vogliono quindi non lo usano.. per definirsi ristorante italiano si dovrebbe cucinare la pasta salando L acqua come in Italia
