Discover the journey of Tops Pizza, from a small family-owned pizzeria to one of the UK's favorite pizza delivery brands. We've been crafting authentic Italian pizzas with passion and tradition since 1985.
Tops Pizza began with a simple passion: to bring authentic Italian pizza to the streets of the UK. Our founder, Mario Rossi, arrived in London from Naples in the early 1980s with little more than his family's treasured pizza recipes and a dream to share the true taste of Italy with his new home.
In 1985, the first Tops Pizza opened its doors in South London. The small pizzeria quickly gained a reputation for serving the most authentic and delicious pizzas in the area. Word spread about our hand-stretched dough, made fresh daily, and our signature tomato sauce created from a closely guarded family recipe.
As our customer base grew, so did our business. Throughout the 1990s, we expanded to multiple locations across Southern England, always maintaining our commitment to quality and authenticity. Each new Tops Pizza location was built on the same foundation: traditional recipes, premium ingredients, and a passion for pizza making.
Today, with over 50 locations across the UK, we remain true to our roots. Every Tops Pizza is still made with the same care and attention to detail as when Mario first opened our doors. Our dough is still prepared fresh daily, our ingredients are sourced from trusted suppliers who share our dedication to quality, and our pizzas are still baked to perfection in stone ovens.
While we've grown in size, we've never lost the family spirit that makes Tops Pizza special. Many of our staff have been with us for decades, and we pride ourselves on creating a warm, welcoming environment both for our customers and our team members.
Our commitment to quality has earned us numerous awards and, more importantly, the loyalty of pizza lovers across the UK. We're proud of our history and excited about our future as we continue to share our passion for authentic Italian pizza.

I've tried many pizza places across London, but Tops Pizza is the only one that truly reminds me of the pizzas I enjoyed during my travels in Italy. The dough is perfect, and the toppings are always fresh and generous.
As a family of five with diverse tastes, finding a restaurant that pleases everyone is always a challenge. Tops Pizza has become our Friday night tradition because there's something on the menu for each of us, and the quality never disappoints.
What sets Tops Pizza apart is their consistency. I've been ordering from them for over five years, and whether I visit their restaurant or order delivery, the quality and taste are always spot on. Their Vegetarian Supreme is simply the best!
I appreciate businesses that care about quality and sustainability. Tops Pizza not only serves delicious food but also uses eco-friendly packaging and sources ingredients responsibly. That makes me feel good about being a regular customer.
