Little Napoli is a Neapolitan pizzeria at 428 Uxbridge Road in Shepherd’s Bush. The warm, compact restaurant celebrates the food culture of Naples and Southern Italy, providing a neighbourhood setting for lunch, dinner, family meals and casual evenings with friends.
Pizza is the centrepiece, with dough rested for 48 hours before it is shaped and baked. Ingredients sourced from Naples support both simple classics and more generous combinations, allowing the tomato, cheese, olive oil and properly developed crust to remain the defining elements.
The wider menu adds Italian street food, salads and baked or pasta based dishes for diners who want something beyond pizza. Vegetable toppings, goat’s cheese, buffalo mozzarella, cured meats and seafood provide plenty of contrast, while a children’s selection and desserts round out the meal.
Reservations and click and collect are available, and the restaurant serves drinks for customers dining in. Vegetarian and vegan choices are offered, but guests with allergies or intolerances should check the current menu and preparation details with the team before ordering.
Address: 428 Uxbridge Road, Shepherd’s Bush, London W12 0NR, England
