Pizza Pilgrims Pizzeria - London | Restaurant Review | The Arbuturian
food value
A few years back, the brothers set out on a gastronomic pizza tour of Italy, keen to hunt down the finest examples available.
After heading out, getting fat and coming back with a raft of ideas and recipes, they set up a shop of sorts in the back of a van, selling cheap, excellent pizzas to foodies on the streets of Soho and at London’s multiple food markets.
The restaurant sits directly across the road from Pizza Express – oh how this venerable establishment’s owners must be quaking in their boots, for PP offers a modern vision, perhaps a superior product than the old timer could ever hope to!
Both pizzas are as fine as one might expect; the toppings on the Salsiccia and Friarelli are particularly excellent.
Nowhere in this part of town offers pizzas of such quality, in such convivial, charming surrounds.

Recent British political history tells the cautionary tale of two brothers engaged in the same trade, and how they fell into a fatal rivalry.
So far, the brothers behind Pizza Pilgrims show no sign of embarking on a calamitous trip down Miliband Boulevard.
Posters for spaghetti westerns and Mafia movies adorn the walls, and a side room boasts table football and walls covered with photocopied reports from the late, and little-lamented, Anglo-Italian Cup.
If the decor has the feel of the Fifties, an era when pizza was styled “Italian Welsh rarebit” on arriving in Britain, the discs the boys pile into the gas-fired oven are, as a highly knowledgable waiter explained, timelessly authentic.
My friend went for Salsiccia e Friarelli, a pizza bianca, nothing to do with EastEnders but rather a tomato-free base laden with fennel sausage, broccoli and fiordilatte or bovine mozzarella (buffalo is £2 extra).

That shouldn’t be a problem with a bigger and better stocked kitchen, so I eagerly sat down for a weekday lunch with Porn Master, Socialist Worker, Chip Butty, Resume and Sloane Ranger.
Both Socialist Worker and Chip Butty opted for the pizza topped with thin slices of Napoli salami.
The meaty, fatty strips of salty meat pleased both the notoriously unadventurous Chip Butty and the studiously indecisive Socialist Worker, who usually covets other people’s food no matter how good his own is.
Sloane Ranger likes her food spicy and added a fair sprinkling of chilli slices to her tomato sauce-free fennel sausage and wild broccoli pizza.
Half of the soft and slightly chewy ring of crust-like pizza dough was filled with nutella; the other half was filled with ricotta.

Pizza Pilgrims | Soho Restaurant Two years ago the Elliot brothers were fed up.
Since returning from their impromptu Gap Year they’ve turned that van into one of the most popular food trucks in Soho; become the poster boys for London street food; published a book; starred in their own TV series; and, tomorrow, will be opening the doors to the Pizza Pilgrims restaurant.
Making the situation even worse (for everyone who isn’t them) is the fact that they’re both extremely likeable and nervous about opening a proper restaurant – which they’ve gamely decided to open right next door to Pizza Express in Soho.
So you’re going to have to go, because: A) Their pizzas are great B) You’ll have fun C) Supporting the underdog is a very British thing to do, and D) They’re serving wine on tap From the outside the restaurant looks like a little takeaway kiosk.

As any fool knows, you can't pedal for seven hours a day without some fuel in your tank, which is how I find myself at Pizza Pilgrims, a pizzeria and friggitoria in London's Soho.
Well, it's a shop selling fried food, and although I'm a pizza purist, if ever there were something to add to what's on offer, it's fried Italian things.
When they returned, it was with a van with a wood-burning stove inside, and their classic Neapolitan sourdough pizzas soon became a huge hit on the London street-food and festival scene.
There are 10 pizzas – from a simple marinara at £5 to the most ritzy, salsiccia e friarielli, at £11 (this latter being a white pizza with fennel sausage, wild broccoli and Parmesan).
These three are, to be specific, tomato risotto balls with smoked mozzarella (£4.50), fried artichoke hearts with rosemary salt (£4), and macaroni cakes with ragu, Parmesan and buffalo mozzarella (£5).

ES Food Newsletter If it weren’t for the fact that the two Pizza Pilgrims brothers gained a stone each during their pizza discovery tour of Italy, their business would be what is known as a lean start-up.
With minimal overheads the brothers sold their pizzas direct to hungry patrons at food markets — able to test their product and find out if and which people wanted to buy and eat it.
Now, following a long list of street foodies including Lucky Chip and Pitt Cue Co, Pizza Pilgrims has set up shop.
Instead we chose the Gelupo ice creams on offer — a lemon sorbet and a vanilla with sea salt and extra virgin olive oil.
Both were delicious — as I expect from London’s best ice cream parlour, a Soho neighbour — and salt and oil on ice cream has gone down in my “try this at home” notes.

The friendly, slightly trendy mood is helped by an alcove for table football.
The menu, printed on Polpo-style manila paper, lists ten pizzas.
’Nduja, a spicy Calabrian sausage, is paired well with a simple marinara sauce.
Salsiccia e friarielli (fennel sausage and a type of brassica leaf), and calzone with prosciutto cotto, ricotta, mushrooms and fior di latte are other enticing combos.
Wine is served by the carafe, adding to the 1960s feel; alternative tipples include prosecco and trendy Venetian cocktails such as negroni or spritz.
