Strozzapreti, Seven Dials Market

The duo behind pizza mecca Franco Manca open a pasta restaurant, Strozzapreti, in Covent Garden

Franco Manca die-hards listen up: the team behind the hit sourdough pizza chain are turning their hand to pasta, with a new venture called Strozzapreti set to open this September in the KERB market in Seven Dials.


Strozzapreti reflects Franco Manca’s trademark commitment to fresh, seasonal ingredients and affordable sustainability. Bridget Hugo and Giuseppe Mascoli took over Franco’s pizzeria in Brixton in 2008, calling it Franco Manca (aka 'Franco is missing'), and have since gone from strength to strength, opening a number of restaurants across the UK that are often full come dinnertime. They are now joining forces with pasta chef extraordinaire Andrea Beccaceci to create a menu which seeks to provide high-quality, fresh and flavourful pasta at reasonable prices.



The controversial mussels and pecorino spaghetti


So far they have announced the namesake Strozzapreti dish, to be served with a Four Cheese Fonduta, a rich Pappardelle with Rabbit Ragu and Marsala livers, and a slightly racy spaghetti that pairs mussels with pecorino and datterini tomatoes in flagrant breach of the ‘no cheese with fish’ convention of Italian cooking. Rules were made to be broken, after all, and we look forward to seeing what more is to come.


To those who have found themselves wishing Franco Manca's menu was just that little bit longer, or incorporated pasta too, Strozzapreti is your restaurant.

We recommend nearby

  • Homeslice, Fitzrovia

    Laid back in its concept and style, the restaurant's premise is simple: delicious 20-inch pizzas, which can also be ordered by individual slice. Homeslice draws a relaxed crowd, and is remarkably good value. Eating at this no cutlery/paper plates pizzeria can be a joyously messy affair.

  • Parsons

    Parsons is a thoroughly old-fashioned spot, with a maroon-tiled facade, a white tiled interior and antique mirrors on which are written their daily changing selection of fresh whole fish which make up most of the mains. We love it.
