Ask Neapolitans where the best pizza in town is and you’re sure to get a different answer every time. However, one name will crop up frequently in your enquiries: L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele.
On any given night, L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele is besieged by pizza-hungry locals and tourists alike, and was made famous worldwide by its appearance in the 2010 movie Eat, Pray, Love, starring Julia Roberts. Now the famous Naples pizzeria is coming to London. L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele will open in Stoke Newington in the northeast of the city, though an opening date has yet to be confirmed.

Several of the chefs from Naples will be travelling over to train the staff, so you can be sure you’ll be getting authentic Neapolitan margarita and marinara (plus daily specials). London pizza just got turned up a notch – could this be the best pizza in London?
