Nonna Maria has a special place in my heart. It is a cosy and welcome local restaurant with the best Neapolitan pizzas. The owners and service are incredibly warm and friendly. It is my go to place for dinner, and sometimes for an afternoon coffee.

Incredible food at Nonna Maria! The forest pizza (pesto base, pepperoni, caramelised onions) was honestly the best pizza I’ve ever had. Fresh, filling pasta and the burrata with Parma ham is a must. Lovely staff, great vibe, and fantastic value for money. Can’t wait to come back!

Visited last night for the first time in a party of three. Lovely evening with great food and extremely friendly, welcoming team. The food was fantastic with really good quality dough and ingredients. Pleasantly surprised and will definitely be back. Thanks for looking after us!

I'm obsessed with Nonna Maria's pizza! If you're craving a taste of Italy in London, you absolutely must try it. The quality of their pizzas is remarkably well-balanced, with every bite a perfect harmony of flavors. I'm thrilled to have this gem so close to my home. From now on, I'll be sticking to Nonna Maria's – it's the only pizza I'll need! See you soon!

Really lovely cozy local pizza place serving authentic wood fired pizza. Dough was perhaps not very memorable (no sourdough tang or chew - we are spoiled in London!) but was cooked expertly. The staff were really friendly and accommodating; we asked if we could have a 50-50 veg and meat platter and they obliged - it was delicious.

Dined here a few days ago with a friend and had a bliss! The garden is beautiful and peaceful, the owners are really friendly and warm - just like you’d expect from a pizzeria in Italy! Service was fast and and everyone there made us feel welcome. I’d recommend!

Delicious food, service was 10/10 really friendly and quick with the food. Marked atmosphere lower but probably just because we booked an early table, when we walked back past at 7 was rammed! Will definitely be back, had pizza tonight but really want to try the pasta!
