Beyond their commitment to sustainabil- ity, Flat Earth Pizzas is also proud to be zero to landfill. They meticulously manage their waste and any unavoidable food scraps are transformed into valuable fertilizers for local farms. This dedication to reducing waste showcases their holistic approach to responsible dining.

Glastonbury fior di latte, Somerset cheddar, thyme, cherry tomatoes, and tomato passata. The thin and crispy crust, combined with the harmonious blend of flavours, made it a truly delightful culinary experience.
Flat Earth Pizzas has garnered praise from esteemed publications such as Metro, The Guardian, London Pops Up, Courier, Hackney Gazette, and even Taste London. Their dedication to quality, sustainability, and exceptional taste has earned them a well-deserved five-star review across the board.
