Pizza Pilgrims is delighted to announce they will be bringing their Neapolitan style pizza to Euston, with a new pizzeria opening on Monday 10th June. With a bespoke design for each new location, the interior of this site right by the bustling Euston station has been inspired by train travel through the golden era of the Amalfi Coast. So, all aboard the pizza express as they set off on Monday 3rd June, where they will be celebrating this launch by giving away 1000 slices of the good stuff from 12pm ahead of the opening a week later.
Since 2012, Pizza Pilgrims have become renowned for their signature Neapolitan style pizza and quirky cult favourites across London and beyond. The key to their success is the 72-hour double-fermented pillowy dough which makes the pizzas light, chewy and moreish. Variations on much loved classics and standout ‘authentically inauthentic’ options are the order of the day; including the Margherita Extra-Extra, which is everything you want from a classic Margarita, but with added Piennolo tomatoes, a whole creamy burrata & fresh basil pesto and the Carbonara pizza, which is topped with guanciale, Pecorino, an egg yolk and finished with strands of al dente pasta, for a less traditional take on the iconic pasta dish.
As with all their restaurants, entering this new pizzeria will take diners on a trip to Italy. For Euston, the Amalfi Coast served as the inspiration, and more specifically, train journeys through the golden era of this stunning region. A beach-themed bar, complete with colourful umbrellas on the ceiling welcomes diners at the entrance, with areas of seating sheltered under a pergola of Amalfi’s famous lemon groves. Disco-balls and wall art of the historic Amalfi coastline complete the scene, alongside a real working train set harking back to the glory days of train travel. The crowning glory of this pizzeria is a statuesque Italian-style water fountain, which adorns a group dining table. This new pizzeria will seat 72 inside, and will also feature a large outdoor area seating 32, perfect for those warmer days.
Founders Thom and James Elliot comment on the new opening:
“This pizzeria will be extra special to us as it will be opening on our mum’s birthday – a double reason to celebrate! We are excited to offer the good people of Euston, Kings Cross and the surrounding areas somewhere to grab a great pizza – whether they are training out of the station or not! As always, we have had great fun coming up with a new theme – and the idea of the golden era of train travel to Amalfi has been a brilliant inspiration, especially with the huge windows in the site and plenty of outside seating. Can’t wait to show you all around.”
Pizza Pilgrims Euston opens to the public on 10th June at 24 Eversholt Road and will be open for lunch and dinner seven days a week. Ahead of the launch on Monday 3rd June, the team will be celebrating by giving away 1000 free slices of pizza on a first come, first served basis from 12pm onwards.
