For anyone in London - Accept no substitutes;

Proper wood fired and an 18 INCH large which is nearly twice the other take aways in surface area. They are epic.

I'm not even turkish and i hate how it's called turkish pizza. it's totally different (yet similar). great as a wrap when they fill it with salad and sauces.

Cheese analogue topped fake ham bread... Would hardly call it pizza....

Still, got to be Dominos for the pizza garlic bread.

Dominos uses proper Mozarella.
I remember seeing a program on BBC about the fake cheese.

Murati's (Pizzeria in north MK, does takeaway!)
Thats the one in the car wash isnt it? Worth a go then? I've been tempted by a while but it doesnt look the most attractive going on location laugh
Ridiculously good for the price. Service is hit and miss.
There's a mobile pizza trailer setting up in the next village from me every other Monday starting this Monday. Going to give it a try, looks good.

Of those three the only option we have is Domino's, PJ and the Hut too far away.

So the pizza of choice is homemade, will try and get a pic on Saturday if I remember.

Another worth a try, if either of you are in Bletchley Made In Sud is there on market days, run by a Italian lad called Leo, decent pizza, certainly more authentic than anything I've tried.

For the take aways, it's Domino's for me. But pizza GoGo offers good value, and there is one walking distance from a mate of mine, so it's used the most often.
If in London however, then Franco Manca's or Pizza Pilgrims is very very good and sets a high bench mark.
I was in London last week and went to Homeslice Pizza near Covent Gardens - highly recommended as well.
Finally, reputed to be the best Pizzaria in the world - L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele in Napoli, is opening up a branch in London. A visit is definitely on the cards!!

Papa johns on order....

Prefer doms really, but for the money you can't argue with papajohns. Can also share a xxl, where as I couldn't share a large doms!

We had a great Doms in Solihull, moved to West Bridgford and it's consistently been the worst takeaway pizza we've ever had, PJ opened up a year or so ago so it's a no brainer.
If you're ever in town and haven't already try Oscar and Rosies in Hockley or Pizzeria Savai near the ice arena. Granted both more restuaranty than take out but both very good.

I have never been to italy but whenever I hear about pizza or check videos online it is ALWAYS about this place, everyone seems to go there. I just hope if they come here they don't have a ridiculous price.

I don't disagree, but they are coming to Hanslope not Wolverton.

We don't have Dominos or Papa Johns frown
Pizza Hut is probably only visited once a year, when I'll consume a large cheesey crust, meat lovers pizza with a few beers.

I miss the kebab van paperbag

They've arranged to set up in the car park of the Watts Arms and the pub have said you can go in and eay your pizzas inside if you want. They're there from 5-8 tonight. Will be popping along to give it a try.

Dominos for me, but purely due to proximity of our local store - half a mile up the road, we collect rather than have delivered.

We've had PJ's before, but by the time it has come across town it is invariably cold.

Last night's Domino's was fresh out of the oven, into the box and in my car within 30 seconds. By the time the box was open and I'd poured us a glass of wine to watch Dragon's Den it was still a bit too hot to eat.

Any good?

My parents still live in the village, so may time my visits to get nice pizza!
