The award winning London pizza restaurant that is opening a two-floor flagship in Covent Garden

Time Out23-06-2025
Crust Bros is set to open the brand's biggest restaurant yet.
A two-floor temple to pizza will open in Covent Garden on July 7 at 29 Bedford Street. Known for its natty Neapolitan-style pizzas, which have won Crust Bros two National Pizza Awards, Crust Bros already has locations in Waterloo and Earl's Court.
Crust Bros' Covent Garden branch will have space for 135 covers, and as well as serving up all manner of pizzas. The flagship will have a special menu of savoury bombas, including a lasagna-inspired take on the fried Italian dough ball, made with six hour ragu, parmesan, bechamel, and a deep fried lasagna sheet.
You'll be able to order pizzas from a menu that includes classic marinara and margheritas, as well as the house 'seven nation salami', 'veggie hot one', 'big poppa' and 'meat sweatz' offerings. Personalised pizzas will also be available, allowing punters to pick their own dough, sauces, protein, cheeses and veg. So yes, you can order a chaotic gluten-free, green sauce, anchovy, burrata and chilli pizza if you so wish.
For pudding there'll be a gelato menu from local ice-cream slingers La Gelateria, and the cocktail menu also sounds rather intriguing, with a house coffee negroni and negroni espresso martini up for grabs.
The best pizzas in London, according to Time Out.

The English hotel resort with private beach, outdoor swimming pool and cinema – and new Spanish-themed experience

Whist the first house at the site dates back to the 1500s, the hotel didn't open until 2003. And inside it features sophisticated interiors with sculptures, chandeliers and airy large windows. There are a number of different rooms available, including 12 newly refurbished suites in the 18th century mansion. Depending on your mood, visitors can also eat a number of different locations including The Glasshouse, which according to The Grove's website is "one of the world's finest buffets". And during the summer months, the hotel hosts the 'Feast on Cloud 9'. Guests can experience a food from the hotel whilst immersed in a fairground-theme outdoor area. Throughout the experience, visitors will have immersive moments all whilst enjoying a five-course meal or afternoon tea. It costs £75 per adult and £49.50 per child for the five-course tasting menu. Alternatively, you could have afternoon tea for £65 per adult and £39.50 per child. This Hotel is Home to the UK's Only Swim-Up Bar The hotel is also hosting a new experience called 'Fuego in the Woods', which shares with guests the flavours of Spain. Across three courses, visitors will have a sharing-style Spanish feast all cooked over wood-fired parrillas with dishes including Barcelona-style flatbread with black garlic aioli, Tomahawk of Hertfordshire beef and a Basque chocolate cheesecake with cherry compote. There will be live music and drinks across the participating evenings too. The experience costs £175 per adult or £100 per child. Back at the hotel, there is also a spa onsite which offers a range of facilities including a 22-metre-long UV-filtered pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room. One of the real hidden gems of the site is the walled garden - home to a heated outdoor pool, private beach and kitchen garden. 9 Inside, the hotel features sophisticated interiors with sculptures, chandeliers and airy large windows Credit: The Grove 9 The hotel is also hosting a new experience called 'Fuego in the Woods', which shares with guests the flavours of Spain Credit: The Grove Whilst at the 'beach', guests can relax, enjoy a new bar, stretch out on daybeds and get competitive in a family gaming area. This year, the beach has a fresh new look and a dedicated treatment space. The day beds include premium, classic and family options that cost from £60 to £190, depending on whether you book them for a day or half-day. Each booking also comes with still and sparking water, fruit skewers, coconut water, face spray and cocktails. 9 Whilst at the 'beach', guests can relax, enjoy a new bar, stretch out on daybeds and get competitive in a family gaming area Credit: The Grove 9 Whilst at the 'beach', guests can relax, enjoy a new bar, stretch out on daybeds and get competitive in a family gaming area Credit: The Grove Whilst there, guests can also indulge themselves with a 'Sequoia on the Beach Massage' - which focuses on the décolletage, neck, shoulders, face, scalp and arms. For those who like golf, The Grove is home to one of the UK's most prestigious golf courses, with 18 holes. In fact, in 2006, the resort hosted The World Golf Championships, which were won by Tiger Woods. Previous guests have included cast members of Harry Potter - as 'The Making of Harry Potter' is nearby at Leavesden Studios - and Barack Obama during a presidential visit with Prime Minister David Cameron. It isn't only prestigious guests the resort is used to - there have also been a number of notable events at The Grove. 9 The day beds include premium, classic and family options that cost from £60 to £190 Credit: The Grove The Grove Hotel went viral for one of it's restaurants THE Sun's assistant travel editor Sophie Swietochowski experienced the buffet last year - here's what she thought. As The Sun travel desk's resident foodie, I could hardly resist trying the UK's fanciest buffet, also one of the world's most expensive. The Grove Hotel in Hertfordshire went viral earlier last year when TikTok foodies discovered its Glasshouse restaurant where everyone dines en masse, but in five-star luxury. It even featured in Netflix's 'Million Dollar Buffet' documentary with Grace Dent. Costing a whopping £82 per person at the weekend, there is certainly enough to choose from. After several, overly-generous spoonfuls of caviar, a few servings of beetroot-cured salmon and seven superbly crafted sushi rolls, decorated with dainty herbs, I felt I'd made a good dent in 'getting my money's worth' – a statement that had been thrown back and forth between my buffet partner, Mum, and I. So the real question is: is it really worth the cash? It's a thought that's difficult to get out of my head, even though, as a self-proclaimed foodie, I'd normally spend at least this amount on a boozy dinner with friends. But £82 does feel like a lot for what I'd previously have defined as 'just a buffet'. Although, if you visit for dinner mid-week, as opposed to the weekend, you can knock £17 off this price. I'd planned what I thought was an adequate two and a half hours to properly tackle that evening's dinner, but an extra hour would have been more appropriate if I wanted to take it at a more relaxed pace – and squeeze in an extra few hundred calories. Isn't that what buffet dining is all about? Still, despite the steep price, I think I'll be booking a table for my birthday next year – and this time I'm aiming for five plates instead of four. 9 In 2023, the resort celebrated 20 years since it opened and also received a plethora of awards Credit: The Grove These include NATO's 70th annual meeting. And for the final of the UEFA Euros, the England National Football Team stayed at the hotel. In 2023, the resort celebrated 20 years since it opened and also received a plethora of awards. The Grove also revealed its newly renovated Sequoia spa after a £1.6million refurbishment.

Brooklyn Beckham posts adoring tribute to wife Nicola as family feud rages on

Brooklyn Beckham has posted a gushing tribute to his wife, Nicola Peltz, after a source told the Mirror he 'felt he didn't fit in' with his famous footballing family Brooklyn Beckham has posted another loving tribute to his wife, Nicola Peltz, as the bitter feud with his family rumbles on. The young couple, who married three years ago, reportedly left David Beckham 'heartbroken' when they swerved his 50th birthday in May - despite being in the UK at the time. On Saturday, a source told the Mirror that the hot sauce enthusiast, 26, doesn't feel like he 'fits in' with his famous family, ahead of his little sister Harper's 14th birthday. And now, Brooklyn has declared he's on Team Nicola again in his latest Instagram post in which he shares a snap of his wife larking about next to a pile of Louis Vuitton luggage with the caption: "My girl xx." ‌ READ MORE: Brooklyn Beckham feels he 'doesn't fit into family' as Harper's 'heartbroken' over rift ‌ It comes after a source told us that Brooklyn probably wouldn't be going to Harper's 14th birthday next week because of the tension between his wife and his parents. Claiming Victoria and David's firstborn 'didn't want things to turn out this way', they said: 'He didn't want it to turn out this way and he's always been really close to all his siblings, but he is a married man now and his priorities have to lie somewhere else." Last month, Brooklyn publicly marked the five-year anniversary of his marriage proposal to Nicola, saying it was his 'best decision ever'. Our source said: "It's becoming increasingly obvious that the former photographer's loyalties don't lie with his parents and siblings", but adds that it isn't surprising given he is now married. They continued: 'He just doesn't feel his family have treated Nicola well and now that he's grown so close to her family in the States, he doesn't really feel like he fits into the Beckham family right now. "If Harper's wish is to have her brother at home for her big day, sadly, she's probably going to be disappointed.' ‌ There's been plenty of family affection flying around on the Beckhams' social media channels, most recently when David paid tribute to Victoria on their wedding anniversary and tagged Brooklyn in the caption. However, Brooklyn has, so far, stayed silent despite being very vocal on Instagram when it comes to Nicola's billionaire family. In posts, which some have said are twisting the knife, Brooklyn has wished both his brother-in-law and father-in-law Happy Birthday recently despite snubbing his own dad's milestone. He also fuelled the feud rumours by posing for a new photoshoot for Italian brand, Moncler, which was shot in London in May just two miles from the Beckham's family home in Notting Hill - and only one mile away from David, who was at the Chelsea Flower Show at the time.

Wimbledon star has the last laugh after being booed during post-match speech

No.10 seed Ben Shelton overcame Martin Fucsovics in straight sets at Wimbledon on Saturday evening before issuing a plea to the Court One crowd which prompted boos Ben Shelton will have his lucky charm with him when he takes on Lorenzo Sonego in the last 16 of Wimbledon after his public plea came good. Shelton beat Martin Fucsovics on Saturday evening 6-3, 7-6 (4), 6-2 to equal his best ever run at Wimbledon – and he has put his form down to his comfort off the court. The American left-hander served rockets and powered his way past the world No.105 on Court One. The No.10 seed is yet to drop a set in wins over Alex Bolt, Rinky Hijikata and Fucsovics and will be the favourite when he takes on Sonego on Monday after the Italian clinched a five-set win. ‌ Sonego battled past Brandon Nakashima in the longest match of the tournament so far, at five hours and four minutes. And if he is going to reach the quarter finals then Sonego will have to overcome Shelton and his lucky charm: his sister Emma. ‌ Speaking to BBC interviewer Rishi Persad after beating Fucsovics, Shelton said: 'I've been playing well this week. It's not just me here, I have a great team. My parents are here, my girlfriend is here. Also, my sister is here – she's been here for every match I've played at this tournament so far, she's been a lucky charm. 'But she has work back in the US starting Monday. She works for Morgan Stanley…' The mention of the American investment bank sparked boos from the Wimbledon crowd, with the cameras catching Emma hiding her face and laughing. After hearing boos, Shelton responded: 'Hey! Come on now! She works for Morgan Stanley, so if any of y'all have connects and can get her a couple more days off so we can keep this rolling, that'd be great!' The 22-year-old later had some good news to share with his 1 million Instagram followers. In a clip showing his sister celebrating after getting off the phone, Shelton said with a grin: 'Yo, you got the week off, or what? Shout out Morgan Stanley.' Shelton has been loving his time in south west London. 'I had a lot of fun,' he said. 'It's always special playing at Wimbledon. This is my third time playing on Court No 1. Hopefully I get a few more matches on one of these two big courts. I'm trying to make my way to Centre Court. Maybe I'll get there one day.' ‌ Speaking about his team, he added: 'Yeah, it's huge, not just being on the court, but we're staying in a house. To have friends and family, people to hang out with, people my age, it's nice. We've really enjoyed it. 'Obviously [I'm] really close to my sister. So all of us have kind of, you know, been having fun this week, enjoying the off days. The match days the same. 'Yeah, it's been great. It's important to me. The tennis season's long. The times where you can get people together to come [and] travel with you or be at a tournament, especially if it's a big tournament, it's a lot of fun. I know that me and my whole family, everybody enjoys it.'
