Tourists will find no shortage of delicious slices in the birthplace of pizza! But if you’re on the go and don’t have time to stop in somewhere for a lengthy lunch, Di Matteo is known for their street-front stall with lengthy lines of local customers. Try the signature Fried Pizza, Macaroni Frittatina, or a slice of classic Neapolitan-style pizza like Margherita or Bufalina.

Often touted as the “best pizza makers” in Naples, Gino and Toto Sorbillo’s flagship restaurant has been open since 1935. They’re known for their wood-fired pizzas made with organic flour and fresh ingredients — we’d recommend trying the iconic Margherita al Filetto. People can also try their legendary pizza in Sorbillo’s ever-growing branches around the globe in Milan, Rome, New York, and the newly opened spots in Tokyo, Miami, and Genova.

With Franco Pepe at the helm, this legendary three-story restaurant uses local farmers and produce to create delectable dishes. From the Fried Pizza Calzone and classic Margherita Pizza, to inventive pizzas like the Fig and Strong Cheese Pie, there’s a lot to love. No wonder Pepe in Grani was given the top spot on the ’50 Top Pizza’ list in 2018. Pepe himself even made an appearance in Netflix’s hit series Ugly Delicious. Yep, there’s no denying this is one of the best spots in the world.

L’Antica Pizzeria Da Michele, London, UK

Fans of Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love might recognize the name of this hot spot. It’s the London branch of the famed restaurant in Naples. Even if you haven’t read the book, you might recognize the meme of Julia Roberts saying “I’m having a relationship with my pizza,” in the 2010 film adaptation of the novel. If you too have a deep love for pizza, you might want to check out the London spot and try their signature Margherita. Or, branch out and divulge in Truffle Mushroom Pizza or the Salsiccia e Friarielli. Cap off the evening with traditional Neapolitan desserts like Cioccolotta and Baba.

Pi, Dublin, Ireland

This woodfired pizza joint burst onto the scene in 2018, quickly becoming a favourite for locals and tourists alike. The signature Nduja Pizza has been named the best pizza in Dublin, while their vegan-friendly Vegate Pizza will melt in your mouth.

Rudy’s Pizza, Manchester, UK

Rudy’s dough takes 24 hours to double ferment, and just one minute to cook — leaving diners with drool-worthy floppy pizza to gobble up. Like many of our best pizza joints, Rudy’s specializes in Neapolitan Margherita and Marinara pizzas. Though their Portobello, Tonno, and Ancozzese Pizzas — or, really, any pizza — are worth a try.
