The Pizza Room in Southwark

Had a delicious meal on the first night of reopening, great this restaurant is back, lovely food and friendly service

The food was very good: sourdough pizza’s which tasted fantastic. Also the size of the pizza is just right. The drinks however disappointed majorly. The cocktails are apparently all premixed. The margerita had “MOTH” in the name, but when asked what that was we got a weird story about a combo deal with a pizza (?) I’m a big margerita fan, so I ordered one, specifying I would like a salt rim on the glass. The margerita was from a can, brand MOTH (aha - could have told me when asked, couldn’t you?) and the salt rim was forgotten. Furthermore it was served in a lemonade glass instead of a cocktail glass. And last but not least the taste was horrible. The Negroni for my friend was from a premixed bottle of Campari Negroni, also served in a lemonade glass. Tasted not horrible, but not good either. This particular waiter who didn’t inform me on the margerita was not very good, the rest that we saw were definitely doing a better job. Conclusion: go for the delicious pizza, but skip the cocktails.

Disappointing Experience Due to Poor Management and Bland Food We visited this restaurant on Saturday during lunchtime, and while the staff were clearly doing their absolute best, the experience was disappointing overall. It was obvious that they were severely understaffed, and the few team members on duty were running around trying to keep up with the rush. They were polite, hardworking, and really tried to make things work—but it was impossible for them to provide proper service with so little support. The real issue here lies with the management. Expecting a handful of staff to handle a busy lunchtime crowd is not humane or sustainable. The company needs to provide more support if they expect their team to deliver quality service. Unfortunately, the vegan food didn’t make up for it. It was bland, lacking any real flavor, and felt like a random mix of ingredients thrown together with no attention. I feel for the staff, but I won’t be returning unless there are serious improvements on how the team is supported.

What a gorgeous place. Food was utterly delicious, and the attentive, friendly and knowledgeable service was really wonderful. Adult and two children in our party. We all had a great time.

Great place to eat. Pastas are amazing. Bit pricey but it is London..
