The Best Pizzas in Warsaw

One of the best pizzeria chains in Poland is Pizza Dominium. This brand has been cooking up top-notch pizzas in the country since 1993, when Tomasz Plebaniak opened a restaurant on Ulica Złota in Warsaw. These days, the company now have over 70 outlets all over Poland. The Nowy Świat location is a superb option in the heart of the capital. The menu boasts two styles of pizza – firstly, the regular pizza menu includes the classics such as Hawaiian, pepperoni or vegetarian. The style of crust or base can also be chosen from deep-dish, traditional or thin and crispy. The more exquisite part of the menu is known as Pizza Della Casa, and these are the specialist ‘house’ styles. Try the ‘Colore’, which has tomato, garlic, black olive, pepperoni, oregano, rocket and Correggio cheese, or the spicy ‘Calabrese’ option, which comes with fresh garlic, spicy jalapeño peppers and red onions. Pizza Dominium has a full range of pastas, starters and desserts, as well as an extensive drinks menu.

Telepizza are the leaders in online and telephone delivery pizza in all of Poland. The company always has great promotions such as 2-for-1 pizza offers and meal deals. Delivery times are also very precise, as you normally receive your pizza within thirty minutes. The menu takes on a more American-style pizza range rather than Italian. For this reason, the deep-dish, hearty pizzas are recommended. You can order online or over the phone, and you can also pay in advance via card or pay the delivery person in cash or card directly. The website is easy to understand, and you can even custom-design your own pizzas by adding your own toppings. It is important to check the price and postal address before submitting your order, as after that, it cannot be changed.

Pizza in a ‘butchery’?? If you mention the words ‘Zakład Mięsny’ to Polish people, they will tell you ‘Oh it’s a butcher’s shop’, which is exactly what the term means. However, once you encounter their pizza menu, you are in for a welcome surprise. Every pizza includes a ‘free’ beer or lemonade, which is already a great pull, yet the pizza range delves into parts of the animal your grandmother forgot about! After devouring a cow’s calf pizza, at Zakład Mięsny you discover a surprisingly quirky venue that pumps out contemporary Poland more than most places in the city. The place has an actual butcher’s counter at the rear, to go with 12 beers on tap and 30 more in bottles (always changing), a peculiar seating arrangement where you can eat and drink in any one of a dentist’s chair, a high stool, a builder’s bench or a cosy sofa. This is more than its title of ‘Butcher’s Shop’ suggests and is yet more proof of the trendy revival in Praga. It feels like another world here. As a bonus, the bar has fast Wi-Fi and a friendly staff.
