Our Passion for Pizza
authenticity is our tradition
Thirty six years ago, Antonino's Pizzeria, began what was to become a long lasting authentic traditional Pizzeria, whose secrets have been learned and passed on from the family member, known as the master of Pizza, 'La Mamma' ... from Ospedaletto D'alpinolo in Avellino to Peterborough, Uk, the expert in preparing, kneading of the dough and cooking the Pizza...we describe it Sacred Temple of Pizza.
Today, the family run pizzeria owned by two brothers, consciously aware of the art and philosophy of the Neapolitan Pizza carried on the work, respecting the tradition and being faithful to what has been learned... 'to bake the true authentic Neapolitan Pizza'.
Our secret and enduring success is in the 'Perfecting' the dough mixture blend and of an old, traditional, time tested method of 'Leavening' the Pizza dough...
"Fatigála bona, copra buó co mesale, falla cresce rindo ó cavoro, accosì quan ta mangi vene bona e saporito"...
A blessing from Mamma's Italian dialect, in other words..."Work it well, cover it up properly with a tablecloth, let it rise in the warmth, so when you eat it, it'll be nice and tasty".
And so it went on, Antonino's Pizzeria has now established itself providing traditional authentic Pizza, thin and crispy with the finest, freshest Pizza toppings and ingredients, then baked at 500'C in our wood fired Pizza oven using only top quality wood creating our own signature brand, needless to say, our customers can really taste the original taste of authentic Pizza and enjoy the flavour of Italy just like on the streets of Naples.
Our menu is concise with a selection of starters and 16 popular Pizza's... with this in mind, we also have a 'specials' board of the day for restaurant dining, this is when we feel and create, it's where our mind takes us.
Occasionally we seek inspiration from 'La Mamma' so we can put it on the board, suggestions fly off the wall which can differ from an enticing starter, a pasta dish, a meat dish made over the grill or even oven baked... furthermore, all our orders are freshly made and cooked to order, whether for
restaurant dining, delivery or collection... and if customers are in a frenzy mood,'why not'...
just ask us and our Pizza chef will do his best to accommodate.
La Nostra Pizzeria... Our Pizzeria, a cosy relaxed tavern style feel look pizzeria, with a warm friendly atmosphere accommodating 28 guests ensuring you get an intimate and personal service, with a licensed bar serving a range of spirits, Italian beer and of course our house wine... whether it's a birthday or to organise something special, just let us know > Make reservation
" There is a place like home"
Il Pizzaiolo... the Pizza Chefs Sergio & Alfredo devote their passion and experience, applying strict discipline and efficiency in preparing the Pizza dough every morning, traditionally hand roll dough balls, then bake to perfection in our wood fired oven... it's a place where Pizza is gospel
Preparation and fermentation is an art in itself, it's the reason why the flavour of our Pizza is like a piece of art..."It has no words"
It goes without saying..."La Pizza deve essere eccellente, non solo buona" the Pizza must be excellent...not just good!"... of course in our Italian heated and loving kitchen...you'll get flying saucepans bouncing off kitchen staff with a few words of wisdom being exchanged along the way...
Furthermore, Antonino's been awarded Cambridgeshire & Central England best Pizzeria and 5 Star Rating Hygiene, consecutively for the past four years, Sergio & Luch with their (right hand man) Lewis, enjoy a happy, friendly Mediterranean feel good place, with continuous new improved Pizza and novelty toppings that we introduce to all our customers.
