Our Tale
Devotedly handcrafting genuine Italian pizza since 1985
From the Heart of Naples to Your Local Community
'ModularPath' originated from one fundamental vision: to offer true Neapolitan pizza in London. The Thompson family established this little but dedicated family-led business back in 1985, preserving recipes that have been passed down for many generations.
Our progenitor, Emily Thompson, mastered the pizza-making craft on her Italian journeys, particularly in Naples, the hallowed cradle of pizza. Inspired after mentorship with renowned pizzaiolos, her return to the UK was marked by a single purpose: to reproduce that hallmark Italian pizza experience, upholding the old-school techniques and leveraging only the prime ingredients.
Our journey began with a cozy 12-seater eatery and has since expanded into a cornerstone of the neighborhood, but our dedication to excellence and genuine roots remain solid. Our wood-fired ovens, our daily fresh dough, and our unexcelled select ingredients stand as testament to our unwavering quality.
'ModularPath' has kept to its family-owned and operated roots, with the Thompson descendants at the helm, directing our zealous crew. Though we've integrated select modern advancements, at our core, we've remained unchanged: we're here to serve delightful, bona fide pizza that unites folks from all walks of life.

Customer Impressions
This is the closest you can get to genuine Neapolitan pizza without hopping on a plane to Italy. The dough strikes the perfect balance of chewiness, topped off with those signature char-blistered edges that only come from a traditional wood-fired oven.
