Pizzeria Francesca

Description

Francesca’s in Jesmond is one of those places that feels like a local legend and has been around since 1983 - buzzing and always worth the wait. No reservations, so show up early and grab a drink at the snug bar while you queue. Inside, it’s warm and rustic - dark wood, mellow lighting, and Mediterranean accents that make it feel like a cosy slice of Italy. 

What really makes Francesca’s special is the friendly, family-style service: the staff (Thomas and Val) go above and beyond. They offer a hearty menu full of pizzas, pastas, risottos, and even options for vegans, vegetarians, and gluten-free diners.
