I DISCOVERED EAST Pizzas on Instagram a few months ago and was instantly tempted by their tantalising pizza snaps. Having opened in The Shore area of Leith in October 2017, their ethos of using quality, locally sourced ingredients sounded like it would be right up my alley. . The restaurant is small yet spacious with a few booths along the right-hand wall (as you enter) and a banquette at the opposite side sharing more intimate tables. Up the back, there’s a small bar area in front of a compact kitchen, where a couple of bodies beaver away amongst clouds of flour. There was a board with an impressive list of suppliers, which I hoped was a statement of intent for what was to come.
We thoroughly enjoyed our pizzas last night. First sourdough pizza we have had and it was certainly tasty with a more dense texture which we loved. My wife’s chorizo pizza was a bit oily but still had great taste. The garlic bread was also nice but some parts were a bit too burnt for my liking but the majority of it was delicious. We also ordered a garlic dip and a truffle dip. Both were not bad but nothing special. £2 for a small tub of sauce is also a little expensive. Good selection of pizzas on the menu but nothing overly vast. Overall we finished our pizzas feeling full and satisfied but not horrible and greasy which you often feel after having pizza. I’d recommend this place.
A wonderful addition to Edinburghs food scene. This place has a small cosy seating area along with take away for absolutely fantastic pizzas. Using local fresh ingredients, they make a selection of delicious and gourmet pizzas. The host is an extremely charismatic and friendly French guy who makes the atmosphere light hearted and welcoming.
Went to the Bonnie an Wilde branch of East Pizza. This is the second time I have had one of their pizza's and I must say my first visit was quite a bit better. A bit disappointed at how a lot of toppings were sold out but was tasty nonetheless.
Absolute favourite pizza place in Edinburgh! Have tried at least 4 or five of their pizzas by now and each one is as good as the last, and the crust is always impeccable. Can only think of one or two places in the city that even compare and they're all far from here, so if you're in Morningside/Bruntsfield/Anywhere south of Old Town -- this is the place to get your pizza!
This place is a solid 10/10!!!
So happy to finally get a decent sour dough Pizza my area. Rapid delivery, superb salad box, the entire meal was awesome. Don’t change anything!
Fantastic latest edition to Morningside! True, authentic pizza. The aioli is the best I've ever had. Really speedy take away service and top staff and service. Definitely is my new favourite pizzeria!
Easily some of the most delicious pizza I have ever eaten. Fresh and full of flavour. Utterly delicious and reasonably priced. Yum.
Really good pizza. Great service. The menu is small and full of surprises. Really delicious!
Not only is their Nduja pizza and dough itself THE BEST but despite ordering half an hour before closing and having called the wrong branch we were greeted with smiles and the best customer service. Super impressed and thank you!
The Pizza is simply amazing, great traditional Neapolitan style. Was met by a very nice gentleman (I think the manager) on arrival and provided with great friendly service.
Excellent pizza, great service and the owner is a great character, a really enjoyable night.
Great pizza and lovely service. Definitely recommend.
Excellent pizza with great fun and friendly service. We will definitely be back.
Great pizza, nice local suppliers for food and drinks. Some nice vegan and veggie options too.
Another great pizza, consistently good:)
Lovely place, great pizza, very nice staff!
Good food, but better takeaway than sit in, as you can't book and have to take your chances.
