Street Pizza by Gordon Ramsay, St Paul’s: Bottomless Slices Under an Olive Tree

We came to Street Pizza straight from St Paul’s Cathedral, which turns out to be exactly the right order of events. You spend an hour craning your neck up at a dome, then walk two minutes to a corner on Bread Street where one of Gordon Ramsay‘s restaurants is doing one simple, slightly dangerous thing: bringing you pizza until you tell them to stop. The cathedral was still lit up down the street as we went in. It was, start to finish, a wonderful evening, and here is why, with the practical details checked.

How bottomless pizza works

The concept is the whole point, so here it is plainly. You pay a set price per person, £20 at the time of writing, and for the next ninety minutes waiters keep bringing freshly cooked pizzas to your table and you take what you want by the slice. The flavours rotate, so you are not committing to one pizza, you are grazing across all of them: a classic margherita, pepperoni, a corn and chorizo, a charred aubergine with wild garlic pesto, plus daily and seasonal specials. One thing worth knowing so the bill holds no surprises: only the pizza is bottomless. Drinks, sides and any extra mains are charged on top.

The pizzas

The pizza itself is the reason the gimmick works. The base is thin sourdough, chewy in the middle with a properly charred, blistered edge. Here is the part that won me over. The slices are chef’s choice, so you don’t pick your own toppings, and when I realised that, my first thought was, oh no, what now. The very things I normally dread on a pizza, broccoli, kale, even pineapple, all turned up, and every one of them pleasantly surprised me. We loved everything we sampled. And if a slice really isn’t for you, that’s fine too, the staff will happily bring you something else instead. So the part of the concept that sounds like a gamble turns out to be the best of it. My advice is still to eat each slice while it is hot, since they cool fast, and to pace yourself for the specials.

The decor and the London vibe

Half the fun is the room. A full-size olive tree grows up through the middle of the dining room, there is a mirror ball turning over the tables, and the whole place is strung with festoon lights. It leans hard into a playful London theme without tipping into tackiness.

There is a Union Jack phone box, a working Pac-Man machine, and, by the door, a “slice leaderboard” that tracks how many slices the biggest eaters have managed. We went in December, so a fully decorated Christmas tree was glowing in the middle of it all. It is loud and busy at peak times, which is part of the energy rather than a complaint, but worth knowing if you want a quiet dinner.

The drinks

The drinks list is solid, a proper range of cocktails alongside Peroni and the usual beers and wines. Just remember this is where a bottomless-pizza bargain can quietly become a normal-sized bill, since the drinks are not included. If you want to lean in, there is an optional bottomless Prosecco add-on for the table.

The service, and the ice cream

The service is what tipped the evening from good to memorable. Our waitress was warm and quick, and at the end she brought over soft-serve with chocolate sauce on the house, then talked us through a list of her own London recommendations for the rest of our trip. It is a small thing, free ice cream and a few tips, but it is the kind of small thing you remember about a place.

Bubbly Tips

• Book ahead: It fills up, especially on weekend evenings. Weekday lunch and early evening are the calmer windows.
• Know the deal: The £20-per-person price (at the time of writing) covers bottomless pizza only. Drinks, sides and extra mains are charged on top, so budget for those.
• Pace yourself: The slices come fast. Skip the first plain margherita and hold out for the specials, and eat each slice while it is hot.
• Students and under-30s: Bring ID for a 30% discount on the bill.
• Find it: One New Change, on Bread Street, EC4, two minutes from St Paul’s Cathedral. Pair the two for an easy afternoon and evening.
• Want something smarter? The staircase leads up to Bread Street Kitchen, Gordon Ramsay’s more upmarket restaurant in the same building, if you fancy a proper sit-down meal instead.
• Bring a group: The sharing format, the arcade machine and the slice leaderboard all work better with people.

FAQ

Is Street Pizza good for groups or kids? Yes. The share-by-the-slice format, the relaxed noise level, the arcade machine and the slice leaderboard make it an easy, fun choice for groups and families.

Are there vegetarian pizzas? Yes. The margherita and the charred aubergine with wild garlic pesto are regulars, and meat-free specials rotate through too.

Is this the only Street Pizza in London? No. There is also a riverside branch in Battersea, so check which one you’re booking.

Final thoughts

Street Pizza is not trying to be Gordon Ramsay’s serious cooking, and that is the charm of it. It is loud, generous, a bit silly, and the pizza is properly good, which is more than the bottomless format promised. Is it worth the twenty pounds? If you turn up with an appetite and room for carbs, easily. We had clocked well over twenty thousand steps around London that day, so we had plenty of both, and the pizza felt like a thoroughly earned reward. We left full, a little giddy from the mirror ball and the free ice cream, and clutching a waitress’s list of things to do in London. For a stop after St Paul’s, I could not have asked for better.

Until next time!
