Fire and Stone Pizza Restaurant (Covent Garden, London)

I visited Fire & Stone with four girlfriends before going to the theatre. Therefore the aim wasn't really for a long, drawn out catch up session, but for a quick bite before heading off for a show. We got a deal with lastminute.com, who I booked our theatre tickets with, for a pizza and a glass of prosecco for £8 - fairly good value I think! The Fire & Stone we visited is in central London - Covent Garden, which is conveniently close to theatreland. It is fairly easy to find, it has a big glass window at the front. The reason behind its name is that the pizzas are stone baked in a big Italian oven. We booked our table for 6 but did warn ...  Read the complete review

Posh pizza places have been popping up all over the place since the advent off Pizza Express and I have a penchant for them. I am an experimental eater so the weirder and wackier the pizza topping the better although I really am not sure about the tuna and banana pizza from a Saint Andrews pizzeria my flatmate told me about! Pizza was on the menu last Wednesday evening when myself and a couple of friends went out for a girly chat and an excuse to celebrate one of my friend's recent engagement. We were in the Covent Garden area of the city, which is fun and fabulous but also quite touristy and can be a bit pricey when we decided we wanted something to eat. I ...  Read the complete review

This is my favourite restaurant in London. At first glance it may just appear to be a pizza restaurant but it is so much more than that, you won't find a pizza like it anywhere else! All pizza toppings are especially selected, and each pizza is named after a place around the world according to what is on it, and you can add or take off any toppings you may or may not want. With regards to the size, trust me, you won't go hungry! Pizzas come in one size only, and are plenty big enough for one. I'm always stuffed afterwards and my girlfriend struggles to finish hers! Prices are more than reasonable, and more often than not they have ...  Read the complete review

The woman who seated us was lovely. It went down hill from there. The juices came from large cartons, and they filled the glasses with ice first. Despite all that the menu promises the pizzas were flavourless. The base was not cooked properly and was too thick. The courgette was sloppy. The pepperoni was cheap. They never offered pepper even though there was a great display of oversized peppergrinders behind us.
Most disappointing.

The Fire and Stone is located near to Covent Garden, with its local tube stations being Covent Garden and Embankment. The restaurant boasts a very modern and vibrant interior and seating is available for both small and large groups. The service is very efficient and welcoming. A wide range of pizzas are on offer, cooked in a large wood fired oven and all moderatley priced. Desserts on the other hand, appear to be slightly over priced, but the pizzas are large enough that it'd be surprising if you needed a dessert aswell! The bar has an array of spirits, wines, beers and ciders, aswell as an assortment of soft drinks. A discount can also be obtained ...  Read the complete review
