Frequently Asked Questions

Should I book a table in advance?

Because the dining room is compact and can get very busy, reserving a table in advance is strongly recommended to ensure a spot, though walk-ins have occasionally been accommodated.

What pizza sizes should I expect?

Each pizza is sized well for one person with a light, airy Neapolitan-style crust, making one pizza per diner an ideal portion. Calzones, dessert pizzas, and tiramisu are also popular to share.

How long does takeaway take during busy periods?

Takeaway wait times are typically quoted around 15 to 20 minutes, but can stretch to 30 to 40 minutes during peak dinner rushes, so planning ahead is advised.

Are there vegetarian and vegan options available?

The menu features vegetarian pizzas, and diners have successfully requested vegan cheese swaps or ordered vegan desserts like fried dough with Biscoff sauce.
