Yummy pizza - Edit
I went for the Aubergine parmigiana (made vegan on request), which I picked up to take home. The sourdough pizza base was great and the aubergine really flavourful. Not a massive fan of violife cheese, feel there are other better vegan cheese alternative, this was the only thing that let it down

Very good - Edit
I got the vegan pizza special of the day, which today was olives, basil, capers, red onions, and potatoes on a pizza with vegan cheese. Would eat again!

Franco is missing - Edit
FM always has a vegan option, sometimes more exciting than others, you can add vegan cheese for extra but their pizzas the marinara and pizza base are good enough without.

One of the best vegan pizzas in London 🌿💕 - Edit
Not being a vegan restaurant, I went into Franco Manca with low expectations but wow 🤩 the flavours on this pizza, textures of the cheese and how fresh it is are just incredible!!
Read moreSometimes you have a bit of a wait to get seated at Franco Manca on the weekend as it’s so popular but it’s definitely worth it and if you ask, they’ll be able to tell you what wines are vegan too 💚

Disappointing - Edit
I tried to order a pizza with vegetables to be told all I could have was a pizza with tomatoes. Then I was offered the vegan special which was on the specials board with no list of toppings...it was so spicy that it was inedible. I was in pain. I notified the waitress who just said "I know" and took my plate away. That was it...very disappointed. Won't be returning.
