London pizzeria wins European best pizza award for third consecutive year

A London pizzeria has been named the best in Europe for the third year running. Napoli on the Road, owned by chef Michele Pascarella, has won the top European pizzeria award three times in a row. This is unusual because European pizza rankings normally favour restaurants in Italy. The win shows that excellent pizza can now be made outside Italy and still compete at the highest level. In December 2025, a YouTube channel called JOLLY posted a video comparing several London pizzerias. Napoli on the Road appeared alongside two other London restaurants, Crisp and Paulies. The specific organisation that gives out the European award has not been named publicly.
