So today we went for a pizza and some friends (because we mainly go for food, friends just tag along) and Kotch! (Although to be honest I still feel ignorant to the name,’it clearly gives away a vibe I just don’t know what is it) was the pizzeria of choice…….. and they are great. Place is fun, pizza is quick and flavourful, antipasti are just 👌, they have some nasty promotions like “2 for 1 pizzas” and service is one of the best you get can in London: in a city that barely sleeps, constantly torn between taking a second job to the benefit of the landlord or get drunk of self indulgence, an efficient person, understanding of your requests and quick to bring food, drinks or a smile to the table, is just what you need to feel wholesome again. Thanks Kotch! Fantastic food, which just couldn’t be better but wait the service is so good that it becomes better!
It's the third time we've been dining here with my husband and it keeps getting better! The pizza are authentic and delicious, the Aperol Spritz are very well made and the wine is great! We were served by a very professional and lovely waitress :)
We'll be back again and again and again! X
We went for an early lunch on a Sunday, and were the only people there at the restaurant. We ordered the black bun with bacon and mushroom and the salsiccia and friariella pizza for two people. The black bun was unique but tasty and the pizza was pretty good as well.
We came here for dinner before a show last month and we had the most amazing waiter/chef/barman (all the same person!). The meal was absolutely divine, cocktails amazing and the service was fantastic. We could see how busy he was while we were there dealing with other orders. He even apologised how long our meal was taken but honestly wasn't needed as everything was lovely. Will definitely be back in the future!
What an amazing little place tucked away close to Maryland station. Blink and you might miss it.
This authentic pizzeria offers a range of fantastic, flavoursome pizzas. The staff were attentive and helpful.
Though small inside, the atmosphere was great.
The nduja pizza was a particular highlight. Incredible crust, spicy nduja and oozy cheese. They also have an authentic Italian IPA which was great.
You have to check this place out!
When you see cuoppo on the menu you know you are in the right place. Divine pizza, sausage and friarielli come shredded so they can be cooked properly, thin dough, gluten-free and vegetable charcoal also available.
15 minutes' walk from Westfield, don't miss out!
Poor reviews are written by idiots.
This was the most authentic food I have had outside of Naples. Service was friendly and efficient too. Prices reasonable for how lovely the food and drinks are.
I'm glad to live locally! Reservation is recommended.
I liked their pizza and everything however the cost was different than the one in the minu
Fantastic value, really good portions (so much so, we sadly passed up the dessert menu after starters and a pizza), lovely atmosphere and fantastic service. Would recommend!
We visited Kotch! on a Friday night and had the most lovely time ever! When we arrived, staff kindly welcomed & accommodated us - everybody was so polite and smiling, we really appreciated that!
We were offered delicious, complementary Nocellara olives to start off our dinner. We ordered a fantastic bottle of Sicilian crispy white wine and a mixed antipasti dish! The ham was fantastic and the crispy bread a perfect match! We then got our pizzas and wowwww! They were massive and superlative! The dough was tasty and its consistency was just right!! Well done guys! One of the best pizzas I had in London!
I recommend with no hesitation & I can't wait to come back for more! 🍕
As an italian I can say the pizza was actually very nice, and really good service too, def coming back!
The food is amazing. Love all the pizzas! One of the best in London. The service is good and the restaurant environment is cosy and nicely design. Price is reasonable. Feeling warmth and like a home with good meal. Doughnut Dessert is definitely a must. Highly recommended. Will return to eat again.
Always wanted to pop in so I did. Primavera pizza had got that buttery flavour that I like , all in was fresh. Drinks always should be served straight away but I got my meal within 8 minutes as wasn’t busy so Im satisfied. Place is tiny btw

I visited Kotch with my family for a birthday meal. This is not the first time I visited and knew how good and authentic the food is there.
We arrived a little before the booking time however the place was empty and it appeared this was not an issue. We were greeted by a friendly member of staff, who was going to also be the waiter for the rest of the experience. A baby chair was provided at our request, the chair was clean and the waiter very accommodating.
Along with a jug of tap water, we ordered a carafe of sauvignon blanc and a starter of bruschetta. The drinks were served promptly however there were some fairly concerning hygiene shortcomings with the tap water. Although it was served at our request with ice in it, our waiter saw fit to add more ice by taking an ice tray out in the dining area, removing the ice from the tray with bare hands and then adding it to the jug. Although this gesture had indeed good intentions behind, we found it concerning that the waiter saw nothing wrong with handling ice bare hands before putting it in the water.
Moving forward, the bruschetta was served. It was warm and crispy, with fresh tomatoes. A true delight.
The sauvignon blanc tasted good however there were some shortcomings with the cleanliness of the wine glasses and jugs overall.
We decided to have mains to share and ordered one pizza fritta tradizionale and a 5 cheeses pizza. These were served promptly and delicious. And what a nice surprise, one of the pizzas had candles on. This was a nice personalised touch and showed the staff paid attention to us. The pizzas were well presented, cooked to perfection and tasted just like in Italy, just what we were looking for.
In addition to the candles on one of the pizzaz our friendly waiter kindly gave my wife and I two servings of Limoncello on the house.
We did ask for some more water and our waiter cleared the two empty jugs and asked which had water in it. This came as a surprise as I assumer a fresh clean new one would have been used. Our waiter saw fit to smell the bottles and find which was which, which was a bit odd.
This was a great touch, much appreciated.
Although very full with the delicious food, we decided it was a must to try a chocolate doughnut. Once again this arrived in a very timely manner and was delicious.
Despite the two shortcomings mentioned above, we had a great meal. The food was authentic and delicious. The service was prompt and friendly, very accommodating for our family and the order was correct. I would definitely recommend and return.

Popped in here on a whim, as had some time to kill… and so glad I did.
My partner ordered a flat white, and I had a latte, which were both fantastic.
We enjoyed that while waiting until midday, when the main menu starts (prior to that it was a brunch menu, but we’d already had breakfast) and ordered a margarita pizza to share. They say you can judge a pizzeria on the margarita alone, and no doubt about it, this was the real deal. The crust, the tomato, the cheese - all were divine, and served by friendly staff including the chefs in the open kitchen.
The only thing that could be better is if the place was busier to give it the vibe - hence my review, as highly recommend. Especially worthwhile if the sun is shining and either of the two tables out front are available - they weren’t for us, so we happily sat inside.
The bill was £18.59 including service - a little higher than I expected, but the quality of the ingredients was very high, and as you’ve learned I really enjoyed the food, drinks and service to consider this well worth it.
I've ordered a veggie calzone and have to say it was 10/10 (if you, like me,don't like too oily stuff ask for no olive oil inside, even though it was lovely!). The dough was light, soft and very flavoured. Calzone was stuffed with good quality cheese to the top! The cheese, same as dough had an actual flavour, which is hard to find in many restaurants where they go for the cheapest cheese that tastes like plastic. My boyfriend ordered a margarita pizza, I've tried a piece and in my opinion it was very good too, only thing I would say is it should have a bit more tomato sauce. Food was prepared in no time and the waitress was super lovely and attentive. Very lovely atmosphere
Only downside was a dessert, even though it was lovely i found WHOLE Nutella lid wrapper inside. Literally took it out of the food with my mouth. Good it wasn't anything harmful.
So yeah, definitely pop in if you get a chance. Especially for veggie calzone ;)
Nice, small, Italian restaurant. I liked the pizzas, although to me personally broccoli gave the pizza a bitter flavour. I'll remember to choose a different one next time. :)
