for some reason it's impossible to find a review of this place that makes no mention of footballers, jimmy saville or both. so there we go - we've mentioned them. the real appeal of the flying pizza though is a subtle combination of good quality pizza dough and a lively, fun atmosphere.

the restaurant is always packed and the buzz of the always busy restaurant is matched only by the pizza that follows. there is also a decent wine menu with some nice italian bottles.

my favourite time of year to visit the flying pizza is on a warm summer's evening, when the lure of al fresco dining is irresistible.
