Alley Cats Pizza is an artisan New York style pizzeria on Paddington Street in Marylebone. Its casual dining format centres on large 14 inch pizzas with thin, crisp bases, making the restaurant particularly well suited to friends sharing several flavours.
The pizza list starts with tomato forward marinara and margherita before moving into more elaborate combinations. Smoked pepperoni with jalapeño and honey, fennel sausage with pancetta, and pulled pork with pineapple and nduja bring together familiar American ideas and Italian ingredients.
Vegetable focused options include a fiery pizza with vegan nduja, pesto, roasted pepper and crispy potato, plus a white base topped with wild mushrooms and Taleggio. Vodka sauce, tuna with olives and red onion, and a stretched New Haven style pie give the concise list distinct directions.
Meatballs, aubergine parmigiana, garlic and cheese bites, salads and candied bacon provide smaller plates around the pizza. Tiramisu and soft serve offer a simple finish, while an assortment of dips ranging from marinara and garlic mayonnaise to hot honey and scotch bonnet makes even the crusts part of the meal.
Address: 22 Paddington Street, Marylebone, London W1U 5QY, England
