When I lived in Brixton, many years ago, Saturday lunchtimes would often find us in Franco's pizzas in the market. You had to be quick, as the place was tiny with about four tables inside and as many on the outside. The pizzas were superb though, and worth the wait. We shopped at the markets too, and at the fruit and veg stalls on Electric Avenue which as now, buzzed with life.
Fast forward and Franco's has morphed into Franco Manca, literally, Franco's gone. Luckily for the citizens of Brixton the replacement is just as good if not better. Not so good is that word is out and people come from far and wide to eat there. Franco Manca's is one of the businesses that has championed the opening of Brixton Village market on Sundays.
