“Take a bite, close your eyes, listen to the music and you will be back in Sweden. This pizza is better than what we’ve had in Sweden for years and the prices are very fair. The owner and his son are really friendly, and the chef is on point. Don’t miss out.”
“I’m from Sweden but now live in Paris, and hadn’t had a classic Swedish pizza in forever. This one was perfect, even better than the best Swedish pizzas in Sweden. So much flavour, perfect texture, and the pizza salad was beyond perfect.”
“My family travelled from Middlesbrough because we had lived in Sweden and missed Swedish pizza. The long trip was definitely worth it. The food tasted exactly like the ones in Sweden, and the staff were very polite. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to try Swedish pizza.”
“I’m genuinely lost for words. I was a little sceptical, but the pizza blew my mind. By far the best pizza I’ve had in London. The pizza was cooked to perfection, the beef doner is delicious and the sauce topped it all off. Fresh ingredients made with love.”
“I am from Sweden and this tastes just like a great kebabpizza in Sweden. The OG with salad, tomatoes and spicy sauce was 10/10—I love it. The pizza salad was also great.”
“Great delicious food, generous portions and very friendly hospitality! Thank you for your kind customer service! :)”
“Finally tried Swedish pizza at Swede Stop and I get the hype. Such a different take on pizza and honestly so good! Definitely coming back to try more from the menu.”
“I will say that this Swedish pizza is better than most pizza in Sweden. If you want a true representation of Swedish pizza and its unique twists, definitely come. I brought my friends here; it was the first time at Swede Stop for all of us and they did not disappoint. We all had the kebab pizza, and the thin crust was crispy and perfect and only highlighted all the other components. The pizza salad could have been a bit more pickled, but overall I was very impressed. It was worth the journey.”
“Swede Stop is hands down the best kebab and pizzeria in London. Great food, quality ingredients, and consistently delicious.”
“It was my first time trying Swede Stop Pizzeria, and I’m so glad my friend recommended it! The pizza was absolutely delicious, fresh and full of flavour. I really enjoyed it and will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommend!”
“Really loved it, especially because it reminded me of my childhood pizza. Thank you so much.”
“If you have Swedish kebab cravings this is the place! Authentic and real, and great guys running it. Good place to practise your Swedish too.”
“Amazing pizza! Had this a few times in Sweden and it was the highlight of the trip. This tastes the exact same and really brought back good memories. Much better than any other pizzeria and will be back for sure!”
“Food is outstanding. Best pizza in London, tastes exactly like back in Sweden. Would one million percent recommend.”
“Great pizza. I recommend the kebab one with chips and mild sauce—10/10. Pizza salad also so fresh and the customer service is great. Looking forward to my next visit!”
“Amazing Swedish pizza! The crust was perfect, ingredients were fresh, and the service was super friendly. Great atmosphere too. Highly recommend!”
“Absolutely outstanding! We made a two-hour trip to visit Swede Stop and couldn’t have been happier. The friendly team served us with impressive speed, and the food was top-tier. I brought my Swedish partner, who was thrilled to find genuine Swedish pizza, traditional sauces, and authentic dishes like pizza salad and prinsesstårta. Speedy, welcoming service combined with amazing food—10/10, we’ll certainly be back!”
“I moved out of Sweden years ago and I’ve been longing for kebab pizza since I left. Not only was this pizza amazing but it was honestly better than some of the pizzas I had when I was in Sweden.”
“The first and only Swedish kebab pizza in the UK definitely didn’t let me down! As someone who grew up in Sweden, it was a really special surprise to see this shop open. It was exactly as I remembered. The prices are really fair and I just had to grab another one as a takeaway when I left too. Definitely coming back again.”
“Best pizza in the world! Thank you for bringing the flavours of Swedish pizza to London—you’ve nailed it, especially adding the pizza salad with the OG pizza. It’s my favourite!”
“Absolutely delicious pizza! One of the best and definitely different from any other pizza I’ve had in London. Super crispy, full of flavour, and very tasty. The atmosphere was really nice and the service was great too. Really enjoyed the whole experience and will definitely come back. Thank you!”
“We went when it was around closing time. It was my first time trying it and I was pleasantly surprised! 5/5 taste and would recommend to anyone willing to try!”
