This is a hipster pizza joint that has been made out to look a bit like a skatepark, with tonnes of graffiti covering just about every available surface. Passing through a ramshackle outdoor seating area with limited seating, you enter a rough looking, concrete floored room with the bar along the left-hand wall and rows of long tables and stools opposite. Every table has been heavily graffitied and all of the walls have been painted jet black and covered with an impenetrable web of text from various visitors using chalk pens. The ceiling is papered with old posters of various famous bands and also sports its own fair share of graffiti. Some skateboards have been nailed to the wall in a concession to the theme and I spotted a pinball table in one corner. The servery has a corrugated iron fronted bar counter and rather plain bar back, with boards on one side listing pizza by the slice options and beer detailed across the gantry. A surprisingly chilled soul soundtrack played throughout my stay and a trip to the toilets uncovered a first floor room with some decent overspill seating and a somewhat less chaotic decorative scheme.
There’s no cask on the bar – just a house pilsner, a couple of Camden beers and a few mainstream brands. I tried the pilsner, which was overpriced and underwhelming, whilst the pizza, which sounded like it would be great thanks to some adventurous flavour combinations, was a real let-down too.
I think the graffiti décor theme can give a false impression of an unkempt, uncared for premises, but having spent quite a bit of time in here, we came to the conclusion that it is actually a dump which needs a good clean up, and that the lack of care taken to present the place has led to a lack of care with the pizza too. There’s nothing here for the passing drinker to get excited about and on the evidence I saw, I wouldn’t bother stopping by for food either.

Fairly rubbish pizza bar with the stench of grilled cheese throughout. As noted its a pretty shabby place by design. Fizz-u-likes lager on and sold in 2/3rd glass nonsense. Not cheap. Not good. Not worth it to be honest.

basically a shabby food place for hipsters, in this case serving pizza by the slice. and like most places of this ilk, the beer is extortionately priced lager (by schooner only) or craft cans. lots of music memorabilia and deliverately tatty decor, typical of this area. there were a few in for a drink Friday evening but I wouldn’t bother unless you’re eating. even then I wouldn’t bother as Outpost do a far better pizza in my opinion.
