Tomatoes from Naples, branding from London. OFM readers have given a second win to this neighbourhood delivery team
“We’ve changed so much,” says Johnnie Tate, co-founder of Yard Sale Pizza. In 2017 Yard Sale won this OFM Award, thanks to the high quality, eminently shareable delivery pizzas he and best friend Nick Buckland had developed in east London. Since then they’ve expanded from three to nine sites, with a 10th on the way, all in neighbourhood locations on either side of the Thames. Crucially, they still do their own delivery, but have upgraded to e-bikes.
“We’ve stayed away from the glitz of central locations, and we’ve steered away from dark kitchens and outsourcing delivery,” says Tate who, along with Buckland, still answers any customer complaints.
