The take
The Take
The Vibe
Pizza Pilgrims on Exmouth Market occupies a neighbourhood slot in Clerkenwell: approachable, unpretentious and stitched into a pedestrianised food street that locals use for weekday lunches and relaxed Friday evenings. The voice is casual rather than ceremonial, and the shop leans on the mechanics of authentic Neapolitan pizza to do the talking — type‑00 flour, San Marzano tomatoes and a wood‑fired oven that produces a leopard‑spotted crust. The result is a classic pizza expression delivered in a relaxed, charming setting: lively enough to feel social, but free of formality.
Best For
This branch is best for weekday lunches, after‑work gatherings and informal group meals. Its Exmouth Market address means a steady lunchtime trade from nearby workers and residents, and evenings are framed as low‑key rather than dressy; it suits colleagues grabbing a quick, well‑made pizza, small groups sharing pies, and casual date nights that prioritize flavour over ceremony. It’s not a tasting‑menu destination — it’s a dependable neighbourhood spot for good Neapolitan pizza at sensible hours.
Ordering Tips
Order with the Neapolitan framework in mind: try a classic Margherita to taste the fundamentals — 00 flour, San Marzano tomatoes and fior di latte or buffalo mozzarella — and note the char from a 450–480°C wood‑fired oven that cooks pies in under 90 seconds. For bolder flavours, choose the nduja for spicy, cured‑meat heat or the Double Pepperoni for an extra‑meaty hit. Pizzas are ideal for sharing, so pick two or three between a small group to sample both the classics and a punchier option.

How It Compares

Morito Exmouth Market is better for a shared-plates meal with more range across the table, while Caravan Exmouth Market and Caravan work better for an all-day modern-casual plan. For diners choosing by craving rather than occasion, Black Bear Burger is the direct burger swap.
On booking difficulty, Pizza Pilgrims Exmouth Market is the safer bet for easy planning. Choose Quality Chop House when the budget and occasion justify it, Morito Exmouth Market when the table wants variety, Caravan for flexible all-day dining, Black Bear Burger when speed and burgers beat pizza.
