Sud Italia in Richmond upon Thames

Greeted with a man chain smoking and not washing hands before making pizza. Did not eat. Would not recommend

This is based at The Hope pub and has its own pizza oven in the garden. Pizza is made fresh to order, at a reasonable price (£8-£12), and is really tasty, would thoroughly recommend!

The Hope is a nice pub/pizzeria just 5 minutes from Richmond train/tube station. The venue developed this combination concept (pub/pizzeria) working quite well if you are opened to new experiences. There is a large outdoor back garden with a funny 50's style "Ape Piaggio", the three-wheeled small vehicle based on a vespa scooter, with an incorporated wood fired pizza oven. The place has a great relaxed vibe,is dog friendly and the staff is polite. Good range of beers and the Pizza's menu includes few traditional pizzas and some innovative chef's creations and you can actually watch him while making pizza in front of you. Veggie options are also available and are quite tasty. They also offer traditional pub food with the usual sport watching. Prices are average for the area. I would recommend this place, though go with an open mind as this is not a traditional british pub.
