Our Story
Making genuine Italian pizza with dedication since 1985
From Naples to Your Neighborhood
'MeadowView started from a single aspiration: to offer authentic Neapolitan pizza to London. Established by the Bennett family in 1985, our small pizzeria began as a humble family venture, maintaining recipes passed on for generations.
Emily Bennett, our pioneer, mastered the skill of pizza creation through her time spent across Italy, learning from experienced pizza makers in Naples—the home of pizza. Back in the UK, her mission was to emulate the enchanting experience of genuine Italian pizza, focusing on classic methods and prime ingredients.
From its original 12-seat space, our pizzeria has expanded into a cherished local gem, yet our dedication to craftsmanship and genuineness remains steady. We continue to employ the same wood-fired oven processes, prepare our dough from scratch every day, and select the top-grade ingredients available.
Now, 'MeadowView' stays under the care of the Bennett family's second generation, who lead our enthusiastic team. While we have adopted some modern approaches, our core ethos remains: to produce delectable, legitimate pizza that unites everyone.
Our Values

Our pizzas are shaped using age-old traditions, with a dough left to rise for two full days and then baked in genuine wood-fired stoves.

What Our Customers Say
This is the closest one can get to true Neapolitan pizza without actually being in Italy. The crust is delightfully doughy with the characteristic char that can only come from a wood-fired oven.
