Food Quality
Pros:
"Tasty melanzana starter presented with spot on garnish, generous 4 cheese pizza, dough just the right balance of crisp and doughy."
"Absolutely world class, amazing Neapolitan style pizza made by a great chef from Italy."
"The bruschetta is really hitting though. I enjoyed that a great deal, so def get an order."
"Food was absolutely delicious! We shared some garlic bread and 2 pizzas. Everything tasted super fresh."
"The food was exceptional, and I really can’t praise it any higher, would give them six stars if I could!"
"Pizza was right up there with New York City pizza. Perfectly cooked dough, great sauce and fresh mozz."
Cons:
"Pizza with tomato sauce and ham was ok. Bad smell due to a ice cream food truck running on some sort of propane gas."
"Topping sloppy and watery, base mostly burnt. I ate mine because I paid for it, she couldn’t get past the first few bites."
"We ordered a truffle pizza and this was the pizza with burnt bottom."
"Pizza was soggy, too much tomato, the cheese was falling off from the pizza, no chicken pizzas at all."
"Pizza's are small for the price (compared to larger pizza places) but do have a nice rustic feel."
"The pizza was not cooked properly at all. Veggie pizza was totally undercooked, had way too many toppings for a thin pan pizza and the aubergine was not cooked."
Service
Pros:
"Top food in a quirky setting with friendly attentive service."
"Food, service, hospitality, location and prices all A+."
"The staff are excellent, they're really friendly and always happy to help."
"Staff quickly cleared a table for us upstairs (we were a party of 4) and we had a great view of the harbour."
"Staff was super nice too!"
"Service was great too! The chefs were so friendly as soon as you set foot onto the bus!"
Cons:
"We got seen by a pushy staff member at the entrance of the bus. He didn’t give me a chance to ask if we’re OK to sit up stairs as we just want drinks not food."
"WARNING: The waitress will literally HOLD YOU HOSTAGE inside the restaurant until you write the place a 5 star review."
"Sat outside in the most windy area due to overbooking. Then forgotten. Never got a menu, had to get it my self after fifteen minutes."
"Very nice venue and great pizzas and music. I give it only 4 stars for the service being rigid with changing tables when there were multiple free tables available."
"The customer service is lacking. They over charged us by quite a bit and the till operator insisted we had a dish which we did not."
"Our pizzas were served without a knife and fork and after the third request we were eventually given cutlery with no apology and a lecture from Anna the very disagreeable waitress."
Ambiance
Pros:
"Bear on mind it is a bus! Lower deck kitchen upper deck indoor tables. Accessible tables outside for summer and hardy daytimes in winter."
"It’s like a 5 minute walk from the cable car stop, if that. That’s how we found the place. At night off the water the vibes are great."
"The heroica lounge is a unique experience. It's something you have to try at least once in your life."
"It was really fantastic. The novelty is around sitting on an old-school double decker bus, but I have to tell you, the pizza was stunningly good."
"The only place in London where you can eat pizza in a double decker bus!"
"The “bus” is small and cozy, with just a few tables, which creates a relaxed and intimate setting for your meal."
Cons:
"Might not suit everyone. It's not chic or luxurious. It just hit the spot for me tonight."
"Bus is a bit run down."
"Quircky place and I really enjoyed. The bus was a bit too cold."
"I think in time it would be nice for it to have a bit of a refurb upstairs inside."
"Sat in with my 6 year old. Margarita for her and Nduja for me. Topping sloppy and watery, base mostly burnt."
"It's not the first time I've been here. I remember last time there was unpleasant burnt bit."
