The best pizza in the UK. Love the dough it's so light and soft and the wood fire adds a smoky effect. Service was smooth and seamless. Just great will keep returning
Sooooo reasonably price but the food is also delicious and actually much better than some expensive pizza restaurants I've been to!
We chose to host our daughter’s 10th birthday party at Franco Manca in Richmond. The manager, Adriana went out of her way to organise the perfect pizza master class party. Chef Chabba, Piera and Tanya worked like a family to bring the party to life in our very own cozy secluded area with a wood fired oven just for us. I’m eternally grateful for everything we received. If you want somewhere for a party with great authentic pizza and people that really care then look no further than Franco Manca in Richmond which has recently been renovated.
Over the last three years I’ve discovered some great places to eat with my 3-year-old grandson Freddie. Following family tradition, he’s turning into a great gourmet and even likes to help with the cooking. He loves Italian food and has an addiction to olives! Given the proliferation of wonderful Italian restaurants, bakeries and delis in our local Richmond-Twickenham area in recent years, it’s really not surprising that he particularly likes Italian food and so Franco Manca seemed like a perfect destination for lunch on our outing to Richmond today.
Did the pasta masterclass here as a birthday treat and we had a great time, wine was flowing, there was so much food to try before we even made our own pizzas. Very knowledgeable staff who were engaging and friendly. Would recommend for a treat or if you're interested in pizza making. Get a goody bag at the end too and was a good location for people coming into London or from London.
Franco Manca is a popular pizzeria chain in the UK known for its sourdough pizzas. The Richmond branch is located on George Street in Richmond, London.
The staff and the whole atmosphere is friendly, they even give you recommendations what to eat from their specials.
The whole idea is to try a new pizza from them , different from the traditional pizzas.
Overall, Franco Manca Richmond will receive positive reviews for its delicious pizzas, friendly service, and cozy atmosphere.
Particularly you will enjoy the sourdough crust, which is crispy and chewy at the same time. The restaurant also offers a good selection of toppings, including vegetarian and vegan options.
The restaurant can get quite busy and noisy at peak times, but this is often seen as a sign of the restaurant's popularity and good food.
Always a big fan of the Franco Manca chain, but the Richmond one is my favourite by far! The quality of the food is so amazing looking then how much it costs, suuuch good value for money. This time around we ordered a pizza to share (number 7 which we loved!) and two starters: ragú with sourdough and aubergine parmigiana. The guy who served us was so sweet and helpful too. They have loads of high chairs for babies as well as a changing baby bathroom (much appreciated), and kids menu!! So worth it if you like pizza.
The pizza was lovely. The aubergine was under cooked though, but the service was brilliant. Gustavo, saw that we weren't satisfied with the aubergine dish and he came to inquire. It was purely because of him and his team that the rating goes to 5 stars
A great place to get pizza. This chain restaurant always delivers high quality food and the service is efficient and friendly.
A nice big open space, plenty of seating. The food was great, and not too expensive. The server was very helpful, and the pizza arrived quickly! I was very happy.
Really nice environment. Pizza tastes like from Italy with fresh ingredients. Definitely a to go place with family and friends.
Convenient location from paradise road car park. Fastest pizza ever, we came at an unusual time after school and had the whole place to ourselves, a rare moment but the pizzas came out at light speed. We were served in single figure minutes. If you have a group of hungry kids and it's in that sweet spot from 4-5pm, I would definitely recommend it. Prices are also really good, 6 of us ate and drank for only £50. Absolute bargain and nothing beats a group of happy, satisfied kids. Service was great. I will definitely come back again.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at a local restaurant, and I couldn't have been more impressed with the outstanding service provided by Alex, one of the servers. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and valued as a customer.
Alex's warm and friendly demeanor immediately set the tone for a delightful dining experience. He greeted each guest with a genuine smile and took the time to engage in pleasant conversation, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease.
In conclusion, Alex's exceptional service truly elevated our dining experience and made our visit to the restaurant memorable. His genuine warmth, attention to detail, and professionalism are commendable. I highly recommend dining at this restaurant and experiencing the fantastic service provided by Alex firsthand. He is a true asset to the establishment and deserves all the praise for his outstanding dedication to ensuring customers have a wonderful time.
Why this place doesn't have a Michelin Star yet? 😊
Pizza 14 out of 10. Happy and kind staff member. Especial thank you to the lovely and friendly staff member who look after us and shared the tip with a lime.
We had the loveliest evening tonight celebrating my father in law’s birthday. Gustav and Annie looked after us so well and they could not have been more welcoming. We will absolutely be back. Thank you Gustav!
The food is no longer as tasty because the products are no longer as fresh, and the few staff, although very kind and dedicated, cannot cope with so many places and requests.
A nice place, very friendly service.
The pizzas are delicious, the dough is well prepared and authentic.
The starters are overpriced for what they are.
We had the burrata toast and the baked aubergines. Neither of these were very tasty, somewhat bland and quick to prepare, not worth the price.
My recommendation is to go and order a good pizza. And if you're hungry, share another.
I had never been here before so was happy to try a new place as suggested by my friend. The waiter was a bit eager to ask us for our order as we hadn't had a chance to look at the menus yet! Then when we were ready he didn't come over for ages despite it not being overly busy. However, ordered a pizza from the specials board which was lovely. We got a pizza each so feel like I got my moneys worth taking some home for another meal! (We used a discount but even without the discount I think it is definitely worth the money for the quality of the food). I would definitely return return though as the food was tasty and great quality.
Pizza is always good and price is good.
Richmond in particular has an upstairs and downstairs so there is always a table
