Bad food quality, bad service, and a kid's menu that is almost a joke. Avoid it if you can.

The worst pizza I ever

30 minutes waiting for a pizza!! Excesive waiting

I wanted to sit down for a coffee at 16:40, which was 20 minutes before the pizzeria closes - but they already had closed the coffee machine. Not cool given that the museum is open until 20:30 on Fridays.

Loved it! Most museum cafes are over priced with average food. This one was a welcome surprise on a cold rainy day. Coffee was so good I went for a second one and the pizzas were fab, great crust and perfect toppings. They actually know how to do a barista quality oat flat white! Pricing very reasonable and the service was great. Only thing I would suggest is it needs some atmosphere, being in such a wonderful museum it would be great to see historical prints, local art or something like that on the walls. Maybe even rotating different themes as it’s all wasted wall space! In all a great experience and we’ll definitely eat here again.

Food was good quality but service was a bit lacklustre. Had to ask for table to be cleaned. Manager came across to tell us to collect our drinks from the counter (where he'd just been standing) and they didn't bring out ice-cream so we had to ask for it (apparently you have to go back to the counter yourself). They need to decide if they are table service or not - this 'bit of both' is confusing.

An employee kindly allowed our group of 4 to use a reserved table when the restaurant was packed.The pizza was good, though I must say their definition of "Italian sausage" on pizza is drastically different from mine.It's loud and crowded. You aren't coming here for the atmosphere, and that's okay.

Was such a lovely lovely day at the British Museum. Enjoyed our lunch here at the Pizzeria! Pizza was the best I’ve ever had in my life!!!

There was no staff to make the pizzas, which is pretty essential obviously. Basic pizza took over an hour to make since the first 40 minutes there was no kitchen staff. I know you are trapped in terms of food options at the museum so it is to be expected, but still they need to fix their staffing.
Good food , terrible service!Probably the most quiet place to eat within the British museum, due to its location. I have tried the pizza, salad and the ice cream, all Of them were good , but the service is confused: take the menu in one side, is required to pay first, but need to have a table (???) , so if you are by yourself ( my case) if someone sit in your table during the time you are paying they will receive your food!Also attendants are not friendly.

The Pollo Pesto Pizza was surprisingly tasty for food from a museum cafe! The only downside was the crust was very large, so the part of the pizza with toppings is much smaller than you expect.

The combination of flavors is amazing. The savory sauce, the gooey cheese, and the crispy crust all come together to create a delicious and satisfying dish.

Very good pizza. Friendly service staff. Could be better ventilation system.

Excellent and tasty salads. A welcome place to eat in comfortable seating unlike the Museum's Courtyard Cafes
