Pizza East Portobello was a popular Italian restaurant and pizzeria located at 310 Portobello Road in London’s vibrant Notting Hill neighborhood. Known for its delicious wood-fired pizzas, rustic Italian cuisine, and stylish industrial-chic interior, the restaurant became a favorite among locals and visitors exploring the famous Portobello Road Market. Housed in a beautifully restored Georgian building, Pizza East combined exposed brickwork, vintage furnishings, and a lively atmosphere to create one of West London’s most recognizable casual dining destinations.
The restaurant’s signature wood-fired pizzas were the main attraction, featuring freshly prepared dough, flavorful toppings, and perfectly charred crusts. Popular choices included classic Margherita pizza, spicy salami pizza, and wild mushroom pizza with Italian cheeses. Beyond pizza, the seasonal menu featured Italian-inspired dishes such as burrata, truffle arancini, fresh salads, roasted meats, and seafood. Guests could complement their meals with Italian wines, craft beers, and classic cocktails.
One of the highlights of Pizza East Portobello was its relaxed yet energetic atmosphere, making it an excellent choice for casual lunches, weekend gatherings, and dinners with friends or family. The open kitchen allowed diners to watch pizzas being prepared, while the upstairs dining area and outdoor terrace provided additional space to relax. Its prime location near Golborne Road made it a convenient stop after browsing the colorful shops, vintage boutiques, and market stalls of Portobello Road.
Although Pizza East Portobello permanently closed in December 2022, it remains a memorable part of Notting Hill’s restaurant history. Visitors exploring Portobello Road Market can still discover a fantastic selection of independent cafes, Italian restaurants, neighborhood pubs, and international dining options throughout the area. For travelers looking to experience the best of Notting Hill, combining a visit to Portobello Road Market with lunch at a nearby restaurant is a wonderful way to enjoy one of London’s most iconic neighborhoods.
