We know how difficult it can be to choose the perfect restaurant for a group of people where everyone will be satisfied. That’s why we’ve come to the conclusion that pizza is the way forward!
Whether you’re dining out for a birthday, having a long overdue catch up with friends, stopping off for a bite whilst touring Bristol or buying in for a staff lunch, you can’t go wrong with a proper good pizza and Bristol has plenty of them.
There are toppings to suit everyone, whether you are veggie, vegan, a meat eater or cheese fanatic, you’ll be sure to find somewhere that’ll cater to all palettes and dietary preferences. Check out our list of Bristol’s best pizza spots, in no particular order.
Beerd
Beerd, which is based on St Michaels Hill, has been baking handcrafted pizzas and selling craft beer since 2009. They also have a range of tasty sides such as chicken tenders and cheesy garlic pizza bread, fab toppings, and seasonal specials, such as their new Xmas special which is bacon and brie.
They have some of the city’s best craft beers on offer so it would be rude not to sample one or two of these as well!
Pizza Bianchi
Right at the top of Park Street is where you’ll find Pizza Bianchi. Their pizzas are made using 48-hour fermented dough that are then cooked to perfection with fluffy and chewy crusts and a crispy base.
You can choose a classic tomato base such as a Margherita or Piccante or a bianca base (white base), such as a Carbonara or five cheese pizza.
They also serve up boozy milkshakes and you cannot skip out on the arancini or the truffle and ricotta fries!
Bertha’s
For incredibly moreish sourdough pizza, it’s gotta be Bertha’s. Each of their pizzas is baked at 500 degrees, for 60-90 seconds, achieving the perfect charred crust, every time.
Bertha’s was born by a group of friends who were looking for a change in direction and after sampling everything Naples and the US has to offer in terms of pizza, Bertha’s hit Bristol.
You’ll find classics on the menu, meaty toppings, veggie and vegan friendly pizzas and dips or your crusts. Bertha’s is a must!
Pizzarova
Pizzarova pizzas have incredible flavour and an insanely good crust from their slowly fermented sourdough, which is made from a starter that’s been fed for over 70-years, trust us they’re *chefs kiss*.
They have three locations in Bristol, Gloucester Road, Park Street and Wapping Wharf. The menu varies from location to location but some top picks would be the classic margherita, roasted ham with mushroom and caramelised honey or the double chorizo and hot honey.
Bosco
If you’ve not yet been to Bosco for their pizzas, you must make it your mission to visit for their arancini; cheesy goodness with a sprinkle of sea salt and squeeze of lemon – perfection!
Their pizzas are made with ingredients sourced directly from markets in Milan and Naples and their dough that’s made in house, so you just know you’ll be having a slice of something nice.
With restaurants in Bath, Cheltenham, and Bristol, Bosco serves up Neapolitan style pizza and many other classic Italian dishes. You can find them up on Whiteladies Road in Bristol.
Left Handed Giant
Left Handed Giant is known for their incredible, bustling tap rooms but did you know they do cracking pizzas?
Located in the centre of Bristol, opposite Castle Park, LHG dishes out wood-fired vegetarian and vegan pizza from Mission Pizza. They’re dog friendly to, so go and grab a slice and a pint of something tasty next time you’re in the area.
Pizza on the Park
You’ll find thin and crispy Roman style pizzas over at Pizza on the Park, with everything being freshly made on site.
Pizza On the Park serves up both red and white base pizzas with toppings such as meatballs, pulled pork and parma ham for meat eaters and a veg special called ‘Life on the Veg’ or mushrooms and truffle on a white base. They also have GF and vegan options available.
Flour & Ash
Flour & Ash bring you wood-fired sourdough pizza, small plates and cocktails. They keep things simple but this doesn’t mean they lack in flavour.
Find toppings of honey roast chicken, maple glazed pineapple, double pep and much more, all made using fresh, locally sourced ingredients, just head up to Whiteladies Road to find them!
