Randomness Guide to London Menu

Restaurant and take away pizza restaurant selling sourdough pizza, craft beer and gelato.

Four Hundred Rabbits opened in August of 2015 on Crystal Palace's already pizza-saturated "triangle" zone of shops and restaurants. Their USP is fermentation- pizzas are on a soughough base with a selection of craft beers both local and imported. The menu is mostly pizza but they also offer a few salads. They sell Gelupo brand gelato and sorbets for dessert. The set menu is small but interesting and there are also weekly blackboard specials (mostly containing meat).

Bec and friends have visited a number of time since its opening. I particularly enjoyed the tomato-sauce free pizza with courgettes, garlic, pine nuts, feta, mozzarella and thyme (£7.75) but also rate the more traditionally marinara sauced pizza with piquillo peppers, pimenton, mozzarella and rocket (£8.75). The pizza is a good portion but leaves plenty of room for the delicious gelato. In addition to the craft beer selection, there are a few intersting soft drinks and teas available.

They don't take bookings and are usually very busy from 19:30 onwards, especially if you have a 4 or more diners, but if you arrive before then (weekdays) you're unlikely to have to wait for a table. There is a large disabled toilet available and highchairs for children.

Bec's verdict: My favourite local pizza place due to the mostly veggie set menu and creamy, decadent gelato.
