Pizzeria 1926 in Edinburgh, City of

Pizza completamente bruciata. Immangiabile. Abbiamo girato la pizza per far capire al proprietario e ai camerieri che la pizza non era commestibile. Nessuno ha chiesto perché non avessimo mangiato.

Diese typische italienische Pizzeria im Stile einer Fankneipe des SSC Neapel ist klein und deshalb eine Reservierung (Zeitfenster 90 Minuten, passt absolut) dringend angeraten! Das freundliche und aufmerksame Personal bringt die leckeren Speisen und Getränke zügig an den Tisch. Pizza (alle mit Namen von Fußballern) und Nachspeise haben uns voll überzeugt. Leider war als Digestiv kein "cafe coretto" erhältlich, aber der Espresso schmeckte auch "ohne Schuss".

Eine wirklich total süsse Pizzeria mit sehr netten Angestellten und leckerem Essen. Ich kann es nur empfehlen und komme wieder!

Perfect! Had pizza again for dessert

Best pizza in Edinburgh, no doubt

Great food and service, reasonable prices. would definitely dine here again!

Hi there, Martin here. I am a big pizza enthusiast and I wanted to take the time to let you know that your pizzas are some of the finest that I have eaten outside of Italy. The margherita with parma ham is simply timeless. Thank you for this. Until next time my friends - Martin

Small, fresh, super delicious pizza and lasagna. Recommend it!

Fantastic food. We did not book table before visiting but the staff arranged place for us. We are very satisfied.

Used to be, in my opinion, the best Pizza in Edinburgh. Have recommended it to family and friends. Was in during the Fringe and the Pizza was nowhere near as good. It appeared a lot smaller and thinner than before. Still tasted fine. I asked the female staff but she was new and didn't know. She did give us a Limoncello on the house, so no complaint about the service. I contacted the Restaurant twice on their site but got no reply. I told them Id rather pay more for the old style Pizza than have a reduced size/quality one.

Delicious pizza and fresh salad! The staff was friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Perfect spot for a tasty, casual meal!

The pizza was delicious and the service was very fast.

Good little traditional pizza restaurant, with quick service and friendly staff. I went during the festival and it was quite busy but they managed to fit us in.

Abbiamo cenato in questa pizzeria italiana su consiglio di una signora scozzese. Consiglio non è stato più apprezzato. Buona davvero la pizza, le bruschette è gli arancini che abbiamo gustato. Ottimo il servizio. Gentilissimo il proprietario. Lo consiglio.

I ordered using their app. It charged me a processing fee (WTH??) then I arrived on time to pick up my order. It was stated in the app that the food was ready. I waited for 10 minutes for a part of my order to get ready. I got the food, got into my car and went home (2 minute drive) and the food was ice cold. I can't even tell if the pizza was good when it was hot.

Food was great and staff were very kind. The restaurant also looks lovely.

We ate very well. Hearty dishes of very good quality. Fast service. It was perfect!

Without a doubt the best, authentic, great Neapolitan pizza and arancini going! The staff are fantastic and the food is simply the best! Highly recommend and it says it all as they are the only pizzeria in Scotland to be a member of the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana!!! Forza Napoli ❤️🫶🏻🇮🇹

An Italian uber driver recommended Pizzeria 1926 and it did not disappoint! Nice and spacious restaurant with fantastic baby changing facilities. Friendly staff who added to the experience but let's not forgrt the food. DELICIOUS! We'll be back again for sure.

The food was amazing, we ordered a vegetarian pizza and one with meat. The portion size was huge, it can be easily shared with someone. They have many vegetarian options. The tiramisu was average. The only thing that I didn’t like was the service, as soon as we sat down the server asked is if we wanted something to drink, I had not even got the chance to look at the menu. I asked for more time and they dropped by again to take food orders after 5 minutes or so while I was still looking at the menu, I felt rushed. Mind you we had made reservations for this place, before we were even seated at our table we were told we had the table for 1.5 hours. All this kind of ruined the experience, we went there for our anniversary dinner, we had mentioned that on our reservation. When you are going out to eat you don’t want to be rushed, rather you want to enjoy the food. Although, I do appreciate that while paying the bill they didn’t automatically add the 10% service charge which many other restaurants are doing these days, instead they asked us if we wanted to pay with the service charge but we declined as it was not good at all. I would probably get takeaway next time.

The classic pizza has an excellent dough and taste. I wanted to try the fried calzone I had never tried before...unfortunately the taste of the oil was really heavy and not pleasant. .I'm sorry because it seemed really excellent... the oil probably needed to be changed... the service was excellent, the girls especially Mira, whose name I don't know, was so nice and present... the pizza chef was very nice and friendly ... we will return because we understand that an inconvenience can happen... congratulations...

Everyone was super friendly and the food was hearty and delicious. Everything felt authentic without making feel ‘Disney-fied ’. Arancini starters were good and their pizza are wonderful. Lasagna was also delicious and hot all the way through. Reasonably priced too. Highly recommend.

Pizza is the best of Edinburgh! We recommend this pizzeria because the pizza is delicious, the pizza chefs are Italian and the pizzeria has the diploma of true Neapolitan pizza 🤤

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best pizzas I've eaten anywhere in the world! The taste was simply magnificent, perfectly prepared and absolutely authentic. The service was extremely fast and the service was simply top-notch - friendly, attentive and made the visit a great experience. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Service was great, but my pizza wanted for something. The cheese was super uneven giving me many bites of soggy tomato bread. It was also so loud I couldn't hear the person across the table from me. Overall it was a fun time but I am not sure I'd hurry back

Food is amazing, and the service is great.

Delicious pizza. Great choice of pizzas and very tasty starters and desserts, too. Very friendly and attentive service. Good atmosphere. Excellent value.

Good Italian pizza A large water bottle is placed directly on the table. 👍🏻

very solid pizza at a decent price! the sauce is spectacular very fresh and the crust has the perfect amount of char.

One of the people at our table got a pizza with raw sausages on top. They kindly made a new one but our friend had to wait. Something we didn’t like was that, when paying, the waitress was pushy with the service charge and tried to be cheeky about it. 1926 used to have the best pizza and service in town, but not anymore which is more evident since the cooks left.

Excellent food, but manager was a little bit rude. We had booked a table in advance, and were told twice throughout the course of our meal that we had to be out within an hour and a half to make way for the next table. Nevertheless, the food (pizza especially, was excellent)

Amazing pizza 🍕. Had bruschetta for a starter and it was very nice 👍. Great service

The most amazing, life-altering, earth-shattering lasagna I’ve ever had. My grandmother is Italian, but this lasagna puts it to shame. The pizza was exquisite. Could not get enough even though I was full to the brim. Staff is also very kind and welcoming. Would absolutely recommend.

Real Italian pizza. Great nduja!

Pizza was really poor. Dough was terribly dry and topping were not fresh at all.

Very good pizza and friendly staff.

Pizza not good this time and also last time. Not sure if I will return.

Better Italian pizza than in Italy

Not sure what has happened to this place. It used to be a 10/10 pizza and now the last 3 time's I've went it has been absolutely terrible. The dough used to be lovely and thin with a puffy crispy crust, now it is soft, chewy and doughy. The toppings now completely soak the pizza and turn it into a watery mess.

The best Italian pizza in Edinburgh

Fast service, delicious pizza, cold beer!

Ordered delivery from here and won’t order again. Pizza was cold, tasteless and the pizza dough was a bit chewy. May be something to do with delivery though if that’s what happens, don’t deliver unless you can provide the same quality as the restaurant. The cost is the same. Should have went to Dominos,

Very good and typical Italian pizzeria. We tried the mozzarella in carrozza and the arancino with meat as starters and both were amazing, crunchy, good and fried properly. The location is also very original, everything has a Naples theme and the names of the pizzas on the menu are also original, starting from the Neapolitan stadium, they take the name of the various Napoli players with their shirt numbers.

Great authentic Neapolitan pizza in Edinburgh!

Coming to this pizzeria is a sure success. The food is delicious and 100% Italian. Unbeatable pizzas and an incredible variety, but not only because of the food, the staff and the atmosphere of this small place in Edinburgh is fantastic. The last time I went it was with a group of friends and we were served by a really kind and friendly waitress, I seem to remember her name is Rose. Place where returning is always a success!!! I recommend the San Paolo pizza and the Raspadori pizza, without a doubt my favorites.

great pizza and its close to haymarket

One of the best pizza in Edinburgh. Authentic Italian taste. Great atmosphere and staff. Always happy to go back there.

Awesome local place with real Italian pizza and top notch atmosphere. Perfect location for a pre-town or pre/post-rugby meal

It was freshly baked and very delicious.

We ordered the Sao Paolo and the Ostigard 55 pizzas for dinner and both were absolutely delicious. Look no further if you want a fresh italian pizza!

Good pizza, nice service. Place a bit small but nice.

Ordered pizza and chips. Because of the driver, my order took 1 hr to get from the restaurant to my place. The restaurant, which is not responsible at all for this, helped me anyway and offered a new free order on the next day. Amazing service and the pizza is definitely the best in Edinburgh. Thank you again!

Stepping into Pizzeria 1926 felt like being on holiday in Italy. We shared 2 starters, a pizza and dessert. The obligatory Limoncello was also had. The started were delicious and large portions and the pizza was authentically Napoli pizza, gorgeous tomato sauce and beautifully cooked. The dessert special was the ricotta and pistachio torte which again was delightful, light and tasty. We left feeling elated after a lovely meal and good service. We paid around £70 with alcoholic drinks included, way better value and experience than some other restaurants in Edinburgh. Needless to say, our new favourite Italian!

Humble, friendly, and warm. The pizza is simple, delicious and filling. Cannot ask for anything more!

highly recommended, go with an empty stomach since the servings are generous

3rd visit- pizzas and thats it- but great pizzas and good sicilian wine

The pizza was good, nothing to say We booked at 9.30pm and upon entering the owner told us to "order quickly because the kitchen would close in 2 minutes" We literally ate with the funnel

Delicious food - some of the best pizza and pasta I've had in Edinburgh. Really friendly staff too. Unmissable! 🍕

Great Pizza Napolitana. The lasagna was great. They are quick to serve and kind.

Don’t even bother booking, you will waste your time getting there just to hear that their booking system doesn’t work and they don’t have your table.

5/5 stars, very tasty pizza and pleasant service. A Neapolitan pizza, which is very good. Clear recommendation in Edinburgh.

Would highly recommend, pizza is amazing, staff are friendly

We arrived by chance and we were not disappointed. Heartwarming welcome. Very good pizzas. Fast service.

Ci hanno letteralmente salvato! Uno perché il risto di fronte alle 20.20 aveva giá chiuso la cucina e mandato via lo chef e noi per caso ci siamo ritrovati davanti questo gioiellino e due perché la pizza era davvero buona. Complimenti a Carmine e alla collaboratrice Barbara per averci accolto come facciamo noi a casa.

Best pizza in Edinburgh, very friendly and polite staff. Great prices

Great people, great pizza, great venue. We didn't have a reservation but they helped. Also, I would like to thank your bespectacled-blonde helpful employee (canim <3) again for letting me use the chair. :) It was one of the best pizzas I've ever eaten.

Great pizza, but definitely not worth the starters. Arancini microwaved, calamari surely not fried... Was better before.

Very authentic, clearly using proper ingredients for their pizzas. Try the salsiccia and friarelli, very good stuff.

You will have the proper Italian taste and view as well.

Best pizza I’ve had anywhere outside of Italy. You need to come here!

A good venue, both to dine in or take away. Top quality, it's my go to whenever I want a pizza in Edinburgh (it's even better than my homemade ones)

I wish I could give 10 stars! Pizza, Lasagna, Desserts! Authentic, Full of flavour, Friendly! You made our day guys, thanks!

It's the first time I've eaten an Italian, or rather Neapolitan, pizza abroad without feeling the Italian flavors altered. Congratulations to the pizza chef!

We had dinner last night in this pizzeria in Edinburgh and we were very satisfied with the quality of the pizza and the courtesy of the service. We were particularly struck by the quality of the ingredients used.

100% best pizza in Edinburgh. Immaculate vibes that, as the whole concept is based around Napoli and, as an Italian, make me feel right at home. We tried a couple of the pizzas and they were one better than the other. I need to say this is definitely one of my favorite pizzas, even better than a lot I had in Italy.

Good portion sizes,attentive service and high quality food. However we won’t be back as I asked for the bill and the waitress gave me it.She then gave me the cash machine to take money from my credit card. I left and looked at my receipt and saw as standard on my receipt there was which seemed a compulsory service charge of 10%,so in my case that was £4 and the more you got the more it would be. The waitress never mentioned a service charge and just gave me the machine.It wasn’t as others do give you the normal bill then the machine asks if you want to leave a tip. A sharp practice in my opinion. Will never be back in my life

Fabulous pizza! I can easily say that's the best pizza in Edinburgh 😍 Staff very friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. We really like the decor of the pizzeria too ❤️

Pizza was sooooo good! Must go!

Pizza was delicious and a generous size as were the starters. Very much the vibe of a neighborhood place with a good balance of locals and tourists joined by pizza connoisseur Hearts fans enjoying some post match scran.

I went in randomly and asked a table for one, despite the busy evening the owner (I think he’s the owner) found me a table. I ate the pizza with parma ham and burrata. It was absolutely fantastic. A truly authentic Neapolitan pizza!

Excellent service with very tasty food

Delicious authentic Neapolitan pizza and great desserts!

Had a great pizza here. Table for two, quickly arranged cause "no reservation". Napoli everywhere, Diego everywhere. Cant go wrong here.

Amazing food, ambience and staff!

Amazing pizza's! The dough was just heavenly, and the toppings just delicious too. Fast service and super friendly. Enjoyed my night here so much. Cold leftovers the next morning were just fabulous too.

Delicious pizza and great service!

Incredible. Beyond words. Best pizza in Edinburgh

One of the best pizzas my family and I have ever ate. I would go again, again and again. Awesome staff esepacially the chef! Grazie Mille❤️

We went because of good reviews dressed very smartly and were kicked out while there was an empty table

Very nice italian pizza. Aesthetically decorated and with modern - but not too much - topping. Cheap wine and nice staff

The pizzas were absolutely delicious and the tiramisu was lovely and not too sweet.

It’s been a year and a half since I came here while visiting from the US and I still think about it

More vegetarian options would be appreciated but they swapped things happily. Didnt enjoy this style of pizza.

I loved the pizza and service. Great quality food & fast serving made for a enjoyable meal! Thank you Pizzeria 1926!

Sono stato in questo locale durante un mio viaggio in famiglia ad Edinburgo. Sono solito ricercare un posto tipico napoletano quando sono all'esterno e durante la mia ricerca online è saltato all'occhio il nome di questa pizzeria. Siamo stati accolti con il garbo e il calore che contraddistingue noi napoletani. Abbiamo mangiato davvero bene e pagato il giusto prezzo. La pizza ottima. La materia prima ottima. I dolci ottimi. Il servizio ottimo. Location top! Consigliatissimo.

Good place to go and set and enjoy a genuine napolitanian atmosphere with tasty pizza and good service

Fantastic pizzas, and fantastic service here. Waiting staff clearly enjoy their jobs, which is a really good sign. Very attentive and engaging. Marco was the manager on duty on our visit and he was brilliant. Will definitely return here.

Friendly service, relaxed atmosphere, but most importantly... great pizza. Really enjoyed my visit, looking forward to returning!

Stopped in for some lunch. Amazing pizza, chips and Salad. Fast and friendly service also. Would highly recommend!

Lo recomiendo al 100%, un trato excepcional y en particular por parte de una de las camareras (la chica morena que hablaba español ). No recuerdo su nombre, pero fue súper amable y estuvo pendiente de nuestra mesa todo el rato.
