Today on the podcast we have Thom Elliott, co-founder of Pizza Pilgrims.


Thom set up Pizza Pilgrims with his brother James, and they now have 16 restaurants across the UK, in London and Oxford, and have released two books.


They originally wanted to start a pizza street food business, and so set about acquiring a vehicle and a pizza oven - which took them to Italy and one week’s trip turned into a 6 week road trip touring the country.


On their return, Pizza Pilgrims was born: starting first as a street food stall in London, before growing into the chain of restaurants we know today. 


We talk about how the idea came abut, their amazing success pivoting in the pandemic and his own surprising side project.
