Zizzi - Lancaster

You'll find yourself on Market Street heading towards the city centre, ducking into Unit 2 where Zizzi sits among the usual high street suspects. It's the kind of place that doesn't try too hard—generous portions of pasta, wood-fired pizzas that actually taste decent, and a wine list that won't embarrass you. The dining room is bright and straightforward, perfect for when you can't be bothered with faffing about but still want something better than chain-restaurant mediocre. Works brilliantly for casual dinners, family gatherings, or when mates can't agree on anywhere else.
