Randomness Guide to London - Differences between Version 23 and Version 9 of Pizza Lupa, SE1 2EL
Version 23 | Version 9 |

Pizza Lupa was a delivery-only (hence the rather unattractive photo) pizza place in [[Locale Bermondsey|Bermondsey]]. As of May 2015 it has been [http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/192923 taken over] by the Firezza chain. |
Proper, tasty, thin-crust pizzas, not overloaded with toppings, with an emphasis on quality. Free delivery to SE1, SE16, E1, EC1, EC2, EC3, and EC4. |

[[Kake]] has found that the toppings on some of the pizzas are possibly a little <i>too</i> scanty, but thoroughly recommends the Nettuno — tuna, olives, capers, anchovies, light on the cheese; good flavours and not overly dry like seafood pizzas can often turn out. |

[[Bob]] says: I certainly didn't feel the toppings were scanty on the last one I had. Certainly a better class of takeaway pizza. Almost exactly the way I like it. |

Proper, tasty, thin-crust pizzas, not overloaded with toppings, with an emphasis on quality. Free delivery to SE1, SE16, E1, EC1, EC2, EC3, and EC4. They also sell ice cream supplied by [[Marine Ices, NW3 2BL|Marine Ices]]. Sadly their other desserts are not all quite as good — tiramisu sampled by [[Kake]] in August 2010 was bland and tasted entirely non-alcoholic. |
Vegans should order the Margarita pizza without cheese, and ask for specific extra toppings like mushrooms, courgettes, red onion. The Bermondsey vegans seem very happy with this. |

Various combinations of [[Kake]], [[Bob]], [[doop]], [[Juliet]], and others have ordered from here many many times — as of 2010 we probably use them about once a week. |
It's worth mentioning that the pizzas usually don't come sliced by default; you should ask when you order if you want them to slice them for you. |

[[Kake]] has found that the toppings on some of the pizzas are possibly a little <i>too</i> scanty, but recommends: * Nettuno pizza — tuna, olives, capers, anchovies, light on the cheese; good flavours and not overly dry like seafood pizzas can often turn out. My default order. * Salsiccia e cannellini (Italian sausages with cannellini beans, spinach, and rocket; £7.50) — very nice, well balanced, certainly a decent main-course alternative to pizza, or a suitable starter for 3-4 people. When sampled in October 2007 the cherry tomatoes were raw rather than "balsamic roasted" as advertised, but this wasn't really a problem. * Anything with prawns on; bog-standard pizza places usually manage to overcook their prawns — this is not the case here. Although the prawns are the small kind (the type you normally get in frozen half-kilo bags) they're tasty and juicy and just right. * Mixed meats with fruit (starter). |

Comment added by Kake: Ordered from here tonight (12 Oct 2007) and had the salsiccia e cannellini (Italian sausages with cannellini beans, spinach, and rocket; £7.50) - very nice, well balanced, certainly a decent main-course alternative to pizza, or a suitable starter for 3-4 people.
