Our Heritage
Delivering true Italian pizza excellence with dedication since 1985
A Journey from Naples to Your Local Community
'CenterlineNetwork started as a vision: to share genuine Neapolitan pizza with London. The Bianchi family, in 1985, opened our doors as a quaint family-owned business where age-old recipes were cherished and passed down.
Margherita Bianchi, our pioneering founder, mastered the traditional craft of pizza-making during her time immersed within the Italian way of life, particularly learning from the expert pizzaiolos of Naples, the heartland of pizza. Back in the UK, her mission was to replicate the enchantment of authentic Italian pizza, adhering to age-old techniques and selecting only the best ingredients.
What started as a humble 12-seat eatery has now expanded into a renowned local treasure, yet our dedication to superior quality and true taste remains consistent. We continue to apply original wood-fired oven practices, prepare our own dough daily, and procure premium ingredients for our dishes.
Today, 'CenterlineNetwork' stays under the mindful eye of the Bianchis, with the family's new generation steering our passionate crew. We've adopted new improvements without drifting from our roots: producing exceptional, sincere pizza that unites families and friends.
Our Core Principles
Premium Ingredients
We insist on acquiring the freshest and finest ingredients by collaborating with local growers and Italian vendors to deliver true flavors.
Classic Techniques
We remain true to the classical methods of pizza preparation, allowing our dough to rise for 48 hours and baking it in genuine wood-burning ovens.
Focus on Community
We aim to be more than a pizzeria, actively participating in our community, supporting local endeavors, and offering a place where everyone feels at home.
Commitment to Sustainability
Our dedication to sustainable operations extends from minimizing food waste to using environmentally friendly containers and backing sustainable farming practices.

This is the closest to Neapolitan pizza I've savored outside Italy. The dough is just chewy enough and sports the signature wood-fired oven char.
