Franco Manca London Bridge is a sourdough pizzeria at 15 Winchester Walk beside Borough Market. The characterful building has previously served as a horse hospital, fruit and vegetable store and recording studio, and artwork by Enzo Apicella continues that unconventional story. London Bridge and Borough stations are both close enough for an easy lunch or evening visit.
Pizza dough is made fresh on site and proved for 24 hours using a starter whose history reaches back roughly 200 years. This slow fermentation creates the base for concise Neapolitan combinations such as marinara and margherita. Italian tomato, mozzarella, basil, olive oil and carefully chosen toppings keep the ingredient list direct rather than overloading the crust.
The current selection moves from anchovy, caper and olive on the Napoli to chorizo, spicy salami and a mushroom pizza with truffle and burrata. Aubergine parmigiana provides a substantial vegetarian topping, and vegan cheese can replace mozzarella without an extra charge. A gluten free base is available, although the restaurant cannot guarantee a flour free preparation environment.
Antipasti, cured meats, salads and sourdough breads allow a table to share food before the pizzas arrive. Aperitivi, beer, wine, organic lemonade and desserts complete the meal, while a panuozzo made specifically at this branch offers a portable alternative. Dine in, collection, takeaway and delivery make Franco Manca London Bridge flexible around a Borough Market visit.
