Are you sick of the traditional stiff, white-tablecloth fine dining tradition of Valentine’s Day? If you are scrolling through your phone searching for "pizza near me" or trying to find restaurants near Tower Bridge that actually have a bit of soul, you've found the right place.

Why not give up the fuss this year and have something real? On the 14th of February, we are welcoming you to celebrate Valentine’s Day the Neapolitan Way at Motherdough in London Dock, and an evening of warmth, togetherness and enjoying fantastic food.

What is Romance The Neapolitan Way?

You might be asking, what is romance the Neapolitan Way? We do not show love in Naples using fancy manners or small courtesies. Food is used to show love. It is being able to sit at a table, laugh and have high quality foods cooked with passion. It is crude, sincere and totally unpretentious.

Bobo, our founder, has 14 years of experience in the kitchen and bases his menu on the recipes of his mother to create the menu that he believes is a hug in your chest. As our brand ethos says:

“ Motherdough is not only a place where people can have good pizza. It is a home where visitors can enjoy the flavour of home-cooked food prepared with a lot of love.” 

By eating with us, you are not our customers but our guests in our home.

The Perfect Date Night Menu Sourdough Spice and Sweetness

So, what makes our sourdough pizza different? The 72-hour secret is all that it boils down to. The natural fermentation of our dough takes 72 hours, which breaks down the gluten to produce a base which is extremely light, airy, and easily digestible. This implies that you will be able to have a full and hearty meal during date night without the bloated and heavy feeling afterwards.

If you are looking for the best sourdough pizza near me, here is how to curate the perfect sharing experience from our menu:

• To Begin: Begin with our creamy Burrata drizzled with olive oil or the Anchovies with stracciatella- simple, old-fashioned flavours that help to liven the conversation.
• The Main Event (Neapolitan Pizza): Spice things up with the 'Nduja pizza (San Marzano sauce, fior di latte, and spicy spianata salami) or indulge in luxury with the MD Truffle, featuring our house-made truffle cream.
• To Sip: Have a glass of natural wine, such as the sparkling red Vitivinicola Fangareggi Puro, to celebrate love or simply go traditional with a Negroni or Aperol Spritz.
• To Finish: It cannot be a date without a sweet thing. Eat our MD Tiramisu--it is a homemade, love-made and above all, mamma-approved.

A Rustic Escape Near Tower Bridge

We are situated in the London Dock and serve as a pizzeria in the middle of London, providing our customers with a rustic experience in the middle of the city. Our ingredients are directly sourced in Naples, and you and your partner have a mini trip to Italy without the flight ticket.

Whether you are a local or travelling across the city for pizza in London, our setting is designed for intimacy. The ruggedness, the aroma of fresh dough, and the welcoming service of the Neapolitan Way make it the ideal place to have a couple of people who do not mind spending a lot of money on fancy things, but rather cherish the genuine experiences in a physical sense.

Tables are becoming full at a very high rate on the most romantic night of the year. Reserve a table today and spend Valentine’s Day the Neapolitan Way.
