The best restaurants serving Pizza pasta food in Clerkenwell Islington London

Lovely place, fantastic pizza, and a range of varieties . They did a vegan one for my friend which wasn't on the menu board so we were glad we asked. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Really warm atmosphere Highly recommend Dame Alice Owen Pub.

Amazing sandwich . Haven’t had something like that in a long time . Go and check it out .

Walking in to the bar on Thursday night and looking for a table. Another customer was about to leave of which the manager had suggested and gestured towards the table we were looking at. I kindly and politely asked the gentleman who was about to leave it would be okay for us to get their table after they left, and that we would happily wait by the side. The erratic and rude manager came up to me, aggressively telling me how dare I talk to one of the customers and that I was forcing myself upon them. This was not the case. The manager then proceeded to rudely look at me and my group making me feel uncomfortable for a considerable amount of time. Absolute power trip and terrible customer service.

We attended this venue during a mid-week afternoon and evening. I was initially disappointed, for a Fullers establishment, to see only 2 hand-pumps in operation, both of which were serving London Pride. Fortunately, the Prude was excellent and remained so throughout our stay. The venue was quiet during the afternoon but became busy in the evening as a younger crowd turned up. The background music fortunately remained unobtrusive. I did notice that our group appeared to be the only ones drinking the real ale and asked a member of staff passing by (who I assume to be Luigi) to pass on my compliments to the cellarman. He replied that he was the cellarman and quite self deprecatingly made a comment about keeping the lines clean, which was enough for this CAMRA member to conclude that the real ale being of good quality was likely to be the norm. As the beer quality was so good, we decided to stay, and eat. A wide range of Pizza was on offer, and represented very good value for money, especially for central London. The waiting time was not as long as I had expected, although my calzone arrived a few minutes after the others at our table. It was, however, the best I have ever tasted, and Luigi brought me over a complimentary ½pint of Pride as an apology for the delay. There was also a large range of ‘special’ pizzas available to suit those with special dietary requirements.

Por supuesto, el señor y la señora Eductor no deberían haberse sorprendido con dos hechos decepcionantes: en primer lugar, un par de días antes de Navidad, todos nuestros restaurantes favoritos en el área del mercado de Exmouth se vieron envueltos en fiestas en la oficina de jóvenes ruidosos intercalados con un puñado de colegas mayores que no estaban seguros si deberían estar mirando a Tina de las cuentas en este momento. En segundo lugar, no deberíamos habernos sorprendido de que un restaurante no tan lleno estuviera. . . errar. . . 'promedio'. No es que La Porchetta sea mala exactamente, es solo que se pierde la mayoría de las expectativas básicas de los restaurantes italianos modernos. Sí, las sillas son incómodas, pero no de una manera moderna. Sí, puedes ver el horno de pizza, pero de alguna manera desearías no poder. Todas las cosas tradicionales de pizza / pasta están ahí, pero la pizza que comiste de Sainsbury's la semana pasada fue igual de buena. En el lado positivo, los camareros eran encantadores y serviciales, el servicio rápido y la factura relativamente modestos para los estándares locales (de nuevo, a diferencia de la mayoría de los italianos modernos). Pero me alegro de que mi fiesta de oficina no estuviera allí. Y no mucha gente lo será.
