Burnt Mill - Wood Fired Pizza

Head down to Mare Street in Hackney and you'll find Burnt Mill doing exactly what it says on the tin—wood-fired pizzas that actually taste like they've been made with care, not just speed. The scorched crusts aren't an accident; they're the whole point. You're looking at a straightforward setup: good dough, quality toppings, proper heat. It's the sort of neighbourhood spot that's packed most nights because word travels fast when someone gets the fundamentals right. The fact it's consistently pulling 4.9 stars across 605 reviews suggests they're not resting on their laurels either.
