Slab City Pizza

You'll find Slab City tucked on The Pavement in Clapham, where it's become exactly the kind of spot locals actually queue for on Friday nights. The wood-fired oven is the real deal—they're not messing about with gas—and it shows in every charred, leopard-spotted crust that comes out. The whole operation feels refreshingly unpretentious: straightforward Neapolitan pizzas, properly sourced ingredients, and an atmosphere that's bustling without being annoying. It's the sort of place where you genuinely want to bring mates, not because it's Instagram-worthy, but because you know you'll eat brilliantly.
