9 best pizzerias in Prague 2026: from Neapolitan classics to trendy concepts with a disco ball

Prague long ago stopped being a city of pork knuckle and beer alone — genuine Italian pizza is baked here, and baked so well that the Czech capital regularly makes it into prestigious European rankings. This roundup is for anyone tired of dumplings and craving a crispy Neapolitan margherita, a thin Roman-style base, or a trendy pizza with unconventional toppings — whether you're a tourist or a local foodie who appreciates quality and atmosphere.

Pizza Nuova, Náměstí Republiky, Prague 1

This pizzeria from the Ambiente Group, located on Republic Square (Revoluční 1), is the true star of Prague's pizza scene. It's the only Czech pizzeria to make the official top-50 list of the European 50 Top Pizza ranking, having appeared there in 2019, 2023 and 2025 as well. The restaurant has been dedicated to authentic Neapolitan pizza since 2006, when it joined the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana; the guide praised its use of Italian ingredients, wood-fired oven, and popular tasting menu that lets guests sample several types of pizza and pasta. It's open all day, including breakfast.

Diskotéka Pizza, Jaselská 246/20, Prague 6-Dejvice

The most talked-about opening on Prague's pizza scene in 2025. Artisanal Neapolitan-style pizza made with sourdough and unusual variations — like the Diskoteka Vera, a take on margherita made with stracciatella instead of mozzarella. The name and style make it clear from the start that everything here does things differently — Prague's Dejvice district is going through a genuine pizza renaissance. The dining room seats 40, with roughly 30 more spots on the summer terrace, and delivery is available via Wolt. Just ten months after opening, the spot earned an Excellent Pizzeria mention in the 50 Top Pizza Europe 2026 guide.

Sasy The Original, Na Příkopě 391/7, Prague 1

A pizzeria right in the heart of the city, just off the pedestrian street Na Příkopě, founded by chef Sasy Iovino from the island of Ischia near Naples. After opening his first pizzeria in the Naples region, chef Sasy expanded to Prague in 2019, where his dedication to authentic craft quickly won over both locals and tourists. The place has picked up "50 Best Pizza" recognition for years running as one of Prague's top pizzerias, and it consistently ranks in Tripadvisor's top 10. A great choice for anyone wanting genuine Neapolitan pizza right in the tourist center without sacrificing quality.

Da Pietro Praha, Bělehradská 61, Vinohrady, Prague 2

The Prague branch of a cult favorite pizzeria from Plzeň, opened near the I.P. Pavlova metro station. Pizzeria Da Pietro Praha serves wood-fired pies at its newest location in Vinohrady, on Bělehradská street next to the I.P. Pavlova metro stop. It was founded by Petr Soukal, whose passion for Italian delicacies led to the creation of a beloved pizzeria in Plzeň over the past eight years; a key role is played by the wood-fired oven, designed by Roberto Fazzone. The place also made the Excellent Pizzeria list in the 50 Top Pizza Europe 2026 guide.

Slice Slice Baby, Dělnická 19, Holešovice, Prague 7

A trendy pizzeria in the industrial district of Holešovice, run by chef Kateřina Jakusová. The restaurant started out as a pop-up project before opening as a permanent spot in 2023; arguably one of the best pizza places in the neighborhood, it combines a classic Neapolitan base with relaxed, unconventional toppings inspired by the Berlin food scene where the chef began her career. The menu changes with the seasons, though classics are always available; enjoy your pizza in the cozy small dining room or out on the summer terrace. Open Tuesday through Sunday, closed Mondays.

Grosseto Pizzeria Ristorante, Jugoslávských partyzánů 8, Prague 6-Bubeneč

One of Prague's most recognizable Italian chains, with several branches across the city — in Brumlovka, Dejvice, Průhonice, Vinohrady and Anděl. The group is dedicated to uncompromising Italian gastronomy and includes five restaurants, an Italian grocery store, and a cooking school. A solid choice if you want consistently good classic Italian pizza and pasta near various parts of the city, with no surprises and roomy seating for larger groups.

Pizzeria di Carlo, Karlovo náměstí, Prague 2

A respectable pizzeria on Karlovo náměstí. One of the most well-regarded pizzerias in Prague is located on Charles Square and goes by the name "Pizzeria di Carlo." It's a good stop for anyone strolling through Nové Město who wants to duck into a family-run Italian pizzeria with a wide selection of dishes — close enough to the tourist trail, yet without the city-center markup.

Pizza Bici, Na Hutích 608/2, Prague 6-Dejvice

Another hero of Dejvice's "pizza renaissance" — a small takeaway spot. The menu is simple but well thought out: sourdough crust baked for just a couple of minutes and topped with quality mortadella, pistachios, and honey mustard. Prague has no shortage of pizza options, but Pizza Bici isn't about flash — it's about simple, artisanal, instant pleasure. A great choice for a quick yet quality bite on the go.

Prague's pizza scene has long outgrown tourist-trap fare: here, classic Neapolitan tradition (Pizza Nuova, Sasy The Original, Da Pietro) sits alongside bold modern concepts (Diskotéka Pizza, Slice Slice Baby) and reliable chain options for a quick bite (Grosseto, Pizza Bici). Pick based on your mood and neighborhood — and be sure to book a table at popular spots in the evening, especially on weekends.
