What they had to say:

 “We visited for lunch with my mum and my two children. The children had pizzas which were huge and consumed enthusiastically.

“Myself and my mum had flatbread which were exceptional with a generous side salad. This little cafe is definitely a hidden gem, located in the independent quarter of Hereford and worth a visit for locals and visitors alike.”

“Unusual but delicious pizza toppings. We also drank warmed spiced apple juice which was delicious. Friendly staff and reasonably priced. Great place to eat lunch. Highly recommend”.

Cotto

The restaurant in Broad Street has a 4-star rating, and serves “authentic Italian cooking with an added modern twist”, also offering a range of different cocktails.

Margherita, calzone, a mushroom and truffle oil pizza, and a nudja topping with cherry tomato, rocket, and red onion.

What diners said:

"Best Neapolitan pizza in town. Beautiful fresh pasta, everything cooked from scratch. Definitely going back."

“We live in Hereford and go to Cotto often as a family as we all absolutely love their pizzas. We've tasted pizzas all over the world and I can honestly say nothing beats Cottos! My 7yr old daughter will always choose to go here if we give her the choice too! They also do lovely cocktails. This time we also had starters of scallops wrapped in Parma ham and fresh tomato bruschetta both of which were absolutely delicious!”

Zizzi

The Old Market chain restaurant is clearly popular in Hereford, with a four star rating and over 500 reviews on Tripadvisor.

What previous customers had to say:

 “Ate at Zizzi’s on our daughter’s birthday weekend. We ordered Pizza, Calamari, Various pasta dishes, Sea bass, Calzone and Mozzarella garlic bread. Everything was cooked to perfection. The service was wonderful too”.

“Went here for a birthday and anniversary celebration with my family and the food was so good. The pizzas are huge, and the starters are so yummy.

“The starters aren't great for sharing as they're small portions, so I'd recommend them individually or between two people. I had the primavera pizza and omg it was so tasty I absolutely loved it. I couldn't finish it in the restaurant due to the large portion but you're able to get a takeaway box to eat later!”
 

Leaven Pizza

Leaven Pizza, which is part of the Rule of Tum group of restaurants, opened in Broad Street in 2022, and offers a delicious range of pizza, pastas, and salads.

What customers thought:

“Exceptional pizza, I would deem authentic! Lovely, friendly service, fresh ingredients, very generous and reasonable prices. Can’t wait to come again!”

“Beautifully light and crispy calamari, pizza was delicious, and the dough base wasn’t stodgy at all, even the crusts were eaten. Arancini was tasty and generous. Prices are sensible and we look forward to trying more items from the menu.”
