Mozza

From the Tony Macaroni group, this Neapolitan pizza specialist provides artisan beers, cocktails and an excellent daytime deal

The 2019/20 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £5.95 (+p&p).

The price, in particular, with Mozza is right. The best time to visit is before 5pm, when the pizzas all cost £5. No matter what way you look at it, that’s a good deal – even if eating a whole one over your lunch hour will likely send you into a deep mid-afternoon slumber. The menu (which, with dozens of different fonts and clip art illustration reads more or less like a ransom note) has a few keepers. The number 11 is a favourite – refreshingly original – with mozzarella, gorgonzola, Parma ham, fig and balsamic jam, garnished with rocket and crushed walnuts, while the number 6, topped with Neapolitan broccoli, Italian sausage and chilli oil, doesn’t miss a tomato base. The lucky 13 gives you the chance to put your faith in the hands of the chefs, a mystery option for the carefree risk-takers. Pizzaiolo are willing to make adjustments if you want to make tweaks to any of the staples. A downside – vegetarian options aren’t anything to shout about. In happier news, the birramisu, that classic Italian pudding served in a vessel normally used for ale, is a quirky indulgence, and the option of 75cl sharing beers from Italian Microbrewery 32 Via dei Birrai is unique to the city.
