The best pizzeria in Europe is giving away free pizza on London's South Bank next week
What's better than pizza? Free pizza.
Next week Napoli on The Road – which came first at last month's 50 Top Pizza Europa Awards – will be handing out thousands of slices of free margherita pizza on the South Bank from a nifty Napoli on the Road van. This cheesy giveaway will take place on Tuesday July 29 and Wednesday July 30, from 11am-7pm, at Observation Point near Gabriel's Wharf.
To what do we owe such an honour? We can thank tomatoes, specifically Italian tinned tomato brand Mutti, whose tomato sauce will take pride of place on the pizza slices. Mutti will also be dishing out free samples of its new garlic pasta sauce.
Napoli On The Road - which has outlets in Chiswick and Richmond – won the title of Pizza of the Year 2025 at the Pizza Europa Awards for its signature pizza Ricordi d'Infanzia, which is topped with slow-cooked ragu with beef, Parmigiano Reggiano DOP, fondue and basil.
Napoli on the Road was set up by pizzaiolo Michele Pascarella, who hails from Maddaloni, near Naples. Pascarella was also named World Pizza Maker of the Year 2023 by 50 Top Pizza and Best International Pizza Maker 2024 by the Accademia Nazionale Pizza DOC.
