L’Antica is a pizzeria that has that warm, Italian, cosy feel… bliss!It is quite small and a little cramped so I would definitely recommend booking in advance. For those of you that have been lucky enough to eat a pizza in Italy, this will feel comfortably familiar as soon as you walk in (especially if you’re coming in from the cold outside).
I just love this little gem. Absolutely love the fact that there's no more than a dozen tables, tightly squeezed in - so Italian! Great food and imo, the best tiramisu this side of Italy. Pls go, enjoy and go again
L'Antica Pizzeria is a very cute place to go eat authentic italian food. It's a small restaurant but it feels very homey and the waiters are really friendly and present. The prices are reasonable, especially given how expensive restaurants in Hampstead usually are.
I recommend trying the Tagliere Salumiere (assorted italian cold cuts) as an appetizer, the selection they have is quite good, and authentic. As a main course, you should definitely have a pizza, they have nice thin pizzas cooked in a real brick oven, and they are legitimately delicious.
L'Antica does the best pizza in London - authentic Neapolitan, wood fired. The tiramisu is mind blowing: must not leave without one.
Damn that was good, I think the best pizza I've ever eaten, beating tens of pizzas I had in Italy. Perfect dough structure, amazingly tasting ingredients.
The only issue was the heat inside the place, but it was 30 degrees outside and they have a wood fueled oven (!) so that's expected. And waiter refilled our watter jug 5 times without us asking, so that's appreciated!
This is easily one of the best pizza in London. The dough was soft and bubbly the sauce is fresh and delicious. The crust was nice and crispy on the top. The only improvement would be if the base of the pizza was also crispy. I think its because they make so many pizzas that the floor of the oven doesn't get hot enough. Anyways we will be back !
I was amazed by their service apart from the pizza!
While we were waiting out for our turn, we ordered drinks and they brought us some free starters (olives, focaccia) and a lot of other nice touches (limoncello at the end of the dinner, little biscuits).
Lovely pizzeria just a few steps away from Hampstead tube station. The place itself is small and gets busy quite quickly, however it’s definitely worth it! The pizza is really good, the dough incredibly light and there are many vegetarian/vegan options and pasta dishes as well. The staff is also friendly and,cherry on top, the tiramisu was to die for! Huge portion and perfect for sharing. If I lived closer, I would go more often! Overall a 10/10, highly recommended.
One of the best meals I’ve had in ages. A beautiful and extensive menu, great wine and a really nice atmosphere. The staff were also super friendly and they were just fantastic for my friends birthday. Truly a wonderful restaurant and a credit to Hampstead 🇮🇹
This is the best Neapolitan pizza we’ve had (outside of Italy)! The crust and sauce are just perfect. Great for a takeaway, but the atmosphere inside this cozy spot is great as well.
Hands down the best Neapolitan pizza I tried in London so far, must have if you’re in Hampstead area. The restaurant itself is very small with not a lot of tables, but is cozy at the same time!
very nice staff, fantastic pizza and tiramisu - three vegan pizza options
Food was delicious, plates were empty by the time I thought to take a photo. Pizzas made fresh to order in a wood fired oven. Would book ahead as they are very busy in the neighborhood. Pleasant team made sure we had everything we needed and a good time.
Amazing pizza experience in a cosy little pizzeria.
It’s a really small shop and they don’t take bookings so I don’t recommend going with more than 4 people as you will wait very long for a table.
Their claim to fame is their truffle oil so this is a must try!
They have great veg options.
The bruschetta was also very good!
Highly recommend this place!
We had to wait for about 20 min for a table for 3 but we had not booked so can't complain about that. Service was top notch and the food equally so. Will definitely be back
Best pizza I’ve tried in London!
The dough is fresh and so amazing, proper Italian food! If you’re lucky enough, you won’t have to wait long to get a table.
Delicious pizza in quaint restaurant. Food was great, and quick service. Also recommend the tiramisu !
It was so good I forgot to take pictures before eating.

Food: Seriously good neapolitan pizza made in a woodfire oven.
Restaurant: It’s a small restaurant with minimal seating so booking is advised. Price: Pizza prices range from £10-16 average.
Service: We had wonderful fast service. They brought water in jugs non stop. We got a little complimentary starter and cantucci at the end with our bill.
Vibe: fast loud and everything you’d hope for in a small Italian restaurant!

Verdict: would 100% recommend!
I've had this place on my "To-go" list for a while and I'm definitely going back. Food was great, felt really warm and homely. Service was really polite too. I loved the calzone and my wife loved the pizza.
I have discovered this pizzeria when I used to love by the end of the road and I have never found a better pizza ever since.
Pizza is the best I’ve ever had in London so far and to be fair better than other pizzas had in Italy too.
Service is great and staff is super friendly always.
I have tried their pasta a few times too and again, no negative comments on any dish!
Drinks are also pretty good.
I moved to west Hampstead now but this remains a cozy place to eat the best pizza in london for me and my partner!
Best pizza I ever had, they come steaming out of the oven right before your eyes. Perfect crust, perfect sauce, perfect cheese. Not too expensive and the toppings are generous, they even have several vegan options. Service is friendly but not overly attentive, which is a good thing! This is the only pizza you should bother trying in London!
Hands down this is the best pizza in town. I have lived in London many years and as an Italian I can easily say this pizza is the best one you can find!
