Gloucester Road newcomer Pizzucci is a pizza bar opened by the reputable team behind Whiteladies Road's Bosco. With dark brooding interiors and neon-infused lighting, it's a distinctive modern look that understandably puts its pizza in the spotlight. At Pizzucci you can choose the topping but please do proceed with caution - the more topping, the less well-cooked the base will be... Don't say we didn't warn you!
