Wines range from lightly chilled crunchy reds to silly and fizzy pet-nats and big dry Chianti.When the pizza comes out, you might think, “Us? Finish this? Impossible.” And then there’s only one piece left and it seems cruel to leave it sitting on the steel tray. There’s something ostentatiously fun about these supersized pizzas, the excess kept in check by the balance in the toppings.Must order: ”Peppi” pepperoni pizza. (Add chilli-laced hot honey.)Good Food reviews are booked anonymously and paid independently.
