Noi Quattro ("the four of us") is an independent Northern Quarter pizzeria owned and run by Italians, focused tightly on traditional Neapolitan pizza and southern-Italian street food such as cuoppi. It was named the UK's second-best pizzeria in a 2024 Betway study (score 8/10), which is why it edges just below Rudy's here on pure pizza credibility. Pizzas are wood-fired and priced from around £9 (indicative), with vegan options on the menu. The reason it sits at number two rather than one is practical rather than culinary: it is a single, compact site open mainly in the evenings, so it is harder to drop into than Rudy's, and it is not on the main online booking networks, so you may need to call to check availability. Choose it over Rudy's when authenticity and a genuinely independent room matter more than convenience.
