The space that was The Good Egg at Eat 17 in Walthamstow has just undergone a big transformation. They've teamed up with the people behind East London's Proud Mary olive oil to launch Proud Mary Pizzeria.
The room itself has had something of a glow-up, with pink walls and psychedelic artwork as well as a new vinyl station where diners can choose the soundtrack to their meal.
As for the menu, pizzas include The Sloppy Mary (spiced beef tossed with Turkish peppers and caramelised onions) and The Rebel Queen (caponata, chilli honey, mozzarella and parmesan). The non-pizza dishes sound pretty great too, like The ZFC, Proud Mary's take on Za’atar Fried Chicken, covered in mozzarella and a Bloody Mary marinara and Bombetta, which is pork stuffed with smoked mozzarella and nduja, wrapped in crisp pancetta. Expect their own olive oil to be put to good use too.
Talking about the new opening, Proud Mary's Vikesh Bhatt co-founder said "Expect colour, noise, incredible ingredients and a place where anyone can walk in, spin a record, and feel like they’ve stepped into our world. This is more than a pizzeria, it’s an atmosphere, a neighbourhood hangout, a glowing shrine to good times, great flavour and everyone being welcome."
So if you're in the Walthamstow area, you have a new pizzeria that sounds like it's well worth a look.
