Great restaurant and tasty pizza, the base was in our opinion a cross between Napolitan and Roma style but good toppings along with the pomadoro sauce offering a great balanced flavour. Some pizzeria add sugar to the sauce and that is a big no no, Leaven use good quality ingredients and this shows in the flavour. Big shout out to server Emma A she's was simply lovely.

Four of us had an evening meal here. The staff were great but the wait time was horrendous. In fact the restaurant staff volunteered complimentary drinks for all of us. My lasagne was lukewarm. I didn’t want to say anything having waited so long for our meals. It was quite a noisy environment as all the surfaces were hard.

Coeliac heaven !, my partner is coeliac (gluten intolerant) and we are always sceptical about eating in a new (to us) restaurant. No fears needed as the staff are knowledgeable, the food is as safe as possible and the pizza base are the same size as the regular ones.

Great value pizzas for the top quality that they are - when you put this up against other well-known pizza retailers, the difference is night and day, in that, you actually get what you paid for - a top quality, freshly made and cooked pizza! The restaurant is in a prime location in the centre of Hereford, the atmosphere and ambience is warming and vibrant and the staff are friendly and polite. Have visited on numerous occasions already since opening, and will frequent as one of my go-to eateries in Hereford!

A week ago I visited with 4 friends, it was my first visit and I enjoyed it so much that as it was my birthday today I prompted my husband to book us in for lunch with our daughters and baby grandson . I just knew that my family would love this place too. It was relaxed, not too cramped, beautiful atmosphere, fantastic service and great food. A nice clean spacious baby changing room and to top it off great food. We all had starters . They were out of mine and hubbys chosen starters so we had to a second choice and we were really pleased with them and the pizzas were perfect too. We were even given a box to take home pizza that couldn’t be eaten . So no waste.. this is definitely a new favourite and for someone who doesn’t usually choose a pizza I am hooked. We will definitely visit again . Twice in a week is a good indication of how impressed I am

Although we have regularly eaten at The Bookshop, The Burger Shop and The Yard we had never been to Leaven before. Really friendly welcome and the restaurant was warm and comfortable. Between us we chose from the Pizza and Pasta menu and everything was delicious. We were there very early evening and starving! Also good choice of drinks and puddings although we were too full for those. I think the menu offers just the right amount of choice and caters for all tastes. Thoroughly recommend and will definitely re visit. Thank you for an enjoyable experience.

mine partner went today with kids as a treat for them with margherita pizza being advertised as £5 deal, they got him kids sizes to start with.. because it was "for kids" and charged him £6 as for kids size pizza on the day when normal size was just £5.. Really pore service, he realised after he left that something was odd with the price as he also got drinks..

I was having a walk around town and looking for a quick bite to eat.. I walked past this place and it looked busy from outside. I quickly had a look on my Google reviews and noticed it is rated highly. Lucky I didn't have to wait long for a table, I was seen straight to my seat. I would recommend booking in advanced for big groups. I was on a bit of a sharp time frame and had to be somewhere not long after having food. I was served my food about 20-25 minutes after sitting down, which was great considering how busy it was. I had the special pizza "Goats cheese & caramelised onion", calamari and a homemade lemonade which was really fresh and lovely. The calamari was beautifully cooked and not burnt, so it wasn't rubbery. The breadcrumbs were so fluffy and didn't fall off everywhere. The pizza was massive and very reasonable for the size and quality. For me it was cooked great as the pizza base wasn't soggy and not too crispy. The toppings were lovely and fresh. A nice touch to get a pizza cutter as cutlery. At the side next to the sky you had oil if you wanted that. I really enjoyed the pizza and the whole experience. I was served by Amber and she was super nice and very attentive, as was all of the were great. If I'm ever back in Hereford, I'd come here again. Overall - definitely worth a visit and I was still able to get to my party on time.

Food and waiting staff were brilliant. Couldn't fault them at all. However we booked as a party of 31 people. We were told we would be on separate tables, but close to each other. Arrived to find that half the party were on the opposite side of the restaurant, in a completely seperare area. Manager had no interest in attempting to resolve the issue at all. Very disappointing. What was supposed to be a family celebration for my sons 16th birthday, was ruined by poor organisation skills. I cannot understand how anyone would think a group booking would be happy sitting opposite sides of the restaurant. Poor customer service from the manager. Worst I've experienced so far.

Tried this place when it first opened during covid with its square pizzas.. and absolutely loved it. HOWEVER.. didn't enjoy it too much when we finally visited the other week. Staff and setting were lovely and it looked incredible 👌but sadly the pizza just tasted undercooked and chewy. We were looking forward to it but won't be going back. It was okay but definitely not what we wished for. Impasto in Worcester is brilliant and we'd hoped Leaven would be similar italian pizzas. Please try theirs and youll see. Thank you though everyone was lovely. I dont want any ill thought, but was given a card to review you and wanted to be honest. Absolutely hate having to cut the pizza yourself... especially when the plate is the size of the pizza. Its so awkward and I really didn't like doing it..

Leaven Pizza truly lives up to its reputation as the UK's Best Pizza of 2024 — and we weren’t disappointed! I visited with my family (a group of seven), and we had a fantastic experience from start to finish. We ordered starters and mains, sampling a variety of dishes, and every single one was excellent! The pizza was the star of the evening. The bases were perfectly crafted — light, crispy yet doughy. The topping combinations offer a mix of classics, like the always-delicious Margherita, and more adventurous choices. I tried the Gorgonzola and Pickled Pear, and it was simply outstanding — a must-try for anyone visiting! The service was friendly and efficient. I highly recommend Leaven Pizza to anyone nearby or visiting the area. It’s worth the trip — go and support this gem!

Food was ok. Nothing to rave about. Pizzas were much better when they were delivered during lockdown as the pizza kits to make at home, is it still the same people? Had the duck parpadelle, lacked flavour, huge portion and looked a bit of a mess. A friend asked for spinach as a topping instead of tomatoes and was charged extra for it.

My daughter, toddler granddaughter and I stopped by for lunch today. We were warmly greeted by Amber& we were helped through the door with the pushchair. The restaurant was quite busy for a Thursday but we were found a nice spacious table and provided with crayon activity for the little one. The choices were excellent on the menu. The toddler/child menu is good too. I haven’t had proper pizzeria pizza in absolutely ages so this was an utter treat for me today- especially as it was my first visit to this lovely restaurant. I chose the hot honey as my daughter had tried it many times and recommend it. Tasting this pizza reminded me of being on holiday in Sorrento almost 20 years ago, the pizza was so delicious. I tasted a tiny bit of my granddaughter’s garlic bread too and that was superb. All in all a lovely visit and excellent service by the pleasant staff on duty today, which included Amber our waitress. I highly recommend the pizza here.

We were very lucky to get a table for 2 in this busy little restaurant. We received a warm and friendly welcome and the smell of the food as we stepped in was mouthwatering. They offer really good value smaller pizzas on weekday lunchtimes which we both had with a side dish. It took a little while for our food to arrive but it was definitely worth the wait, everything (pizzas, garlic bread, arancini) was absolutely delicious. I really hope to return on my next trip to Hereford.

This is a small 'family' run establishment, with nice ambience. The menu items are unusually interesting, mainly pasta for mains, but not what you would expect from the average Italian set up. And the taste was good to match. House wines were fine, particularly at the price. Starters and deserts were also interesting and good, and the list of Alice's ice creams and sorbets cannot be beaten globally!
