Japes Greenwich

You'll find yourself on Nelson Road in Greenwich, walking past the usual high street suspects before pushing through Japes' doors and landing somewhere altogether more fun. This is neighbourhood pizza done right—the kind of place where locals queue for a table on Friday nights because the wood-fired oven actually knows what it's doing, and the wine list reads like someone who actually drinks wine, not just sells it. The space has that comfortable, slightly worn-in feel of a proper Italian spot, minus the pretension. Come hungry, come thirsty, stay longer than you planned.
