About Al Forno Pizzeria

Tucked into a corner at the top of the street, this is a traditional-feeling Italian where the pizzas come out fast and the staff stay warm even when every table is full. Handy for families: a kids' menu, high chairs, outdoor seating and a whole separate vegan section — the pesto vegan pizza gets particular praise for its soft base, and the arancini with tomato sauce and rocket is the starter people come back for. Portions are generous, the calamari included. Worth knowing before you go: it fills up, so book if you're more than a couple with a buggy, weekend and bank-holiday lunches can feel chaotic with one person on the floor, and a 10% service charge lands on the bill automatically. Open late for takeaway, which is a quiet blessing on a long day.
