The best vegan pizza in the country

That might be an exaggeration, I haven’t been all over this country yet. But I can’t tell you this if you want some seriously good vegan pizza you’ve got to find this place in the Gothic quarter. It would be worth the effort, we were gonna go back, but we ran out of time, highly recommended. It’s a little bit of a snug restaurant, but you can make it work.

First night in Barcelona!!

OMG. We ordered the Funghi and it did not disappoint. I tried to get photos but tje cool little venue, with red lights made it impossible!! The fried Gnocchi was ok, but I'd save your calories for something else!!!

Amazing!

When we walked in, we didn’t know what to expect. We asked the owner if 2 pizzas were enough, and he suggested getting one to start off, and go from there. We chose the diavola pizza with vegan chorizo, red onion, and black olives. The crust was nice and chewy, but puffy and slightly crispy. A classic Neapolitan style with a thin crust base. I’m used to the NY style pizza that I can fold a slice in half and I could easily do that with this pizza. The red sauce was tangy and slightly sweet, and the chorizo was reminiscent of a spicy pepperoni. I could’ve easily had more onions on it (I will ask for extra next time), but all in all, it was an excellent pie and definitely encourages me to try their other pizzas! By the way, I could’ve gotten 2 pizzas (because it was so delicious), but one is quite generous, and was filling enough for 2 people.

Pros: The crust, The umami taste of the vegan cheese , The staff was efficient and super nice

Cons: NONE!!

Delicious pizza

The pizzas are delicious and original, I will definitely go back to try more things.
The only weird thing was that you had to ask them to open the bathroom door everytime you wanted to use it.

Pros: Delicious food, Friendly staff

Cons: Bathroom access is a weird system

Absolutely incredible

May have been the best pizza I’ve had since going vegan 7 years ago. We tried The Hugo with blue cheese and caramelised pear, The Funghi with confit garlic and 3 kinds of mushrooms, and the fried gnocchi. We were mindblown. The cheeses were my favorite, but the overall taste of everything was just sublime.

Increíble!

Espectacular, la masa y el queso y generalmente todo está muy bien, es la mejor pizza que he probado hasta ahora. Me ha encantado, y además todos los empleados son superamables. Gran recomendación!

Before eating here, the best pizza I had ever eaten was in Warsaw, but I changed my mind and will say this now has the number one spot of "Best pizza I know". We were 3 people and shared 3 pizzas (Cheeseburger, 4 Seasons and Carbonara) and I can't even pick a favourite because they all blew my mind. Unfortunately there's only a bar to sit at with about 7 spots but it was enough for us and we loved the food.

Pros: Pizza, pizza, pizza

Cons: not much space to sit

Creative pizza

Really good flavors, the only downside is that there are tables, only one long bar. Maybe outside once the weather is warmer.

Easily best pizza in Spain!

I was so happy to find an amazing fully vegan pizza place with real fermented dough in Barcelona! It was really delicious! And there was a pizza with garlic base - a dream came true🫶🏼
I wish I had more time to go there a second time🥲

Pros: Absolutely yummy pizza, Nice pizza chef, Garlic sauce 😍

One of the best in Europe!

We had tried vegan pizzas in multiple European countries and this place offers one of the best ones throughout Europe. The dough was fantastic, the spiciness level was right on spot and the overall taste was just perfect! The service is great, too!

Came back for more and it was even better

Long hallway style restaurant that connects the two sides of the street.

Had the diavola and the five Seasons. One of the best I ever tried, but I'm too stingy to give it a 5* (even though it's not expensive for the area).

But the Mac and cheese, oh boy the Mac and cheese I ate on my second time there, now that was 5*. Incredible, delicious, very cheap. The penne was crazy too but the Mac and cheese was better, I wish I went back there to eat that mac cheese everyday.

Great and authentic Neapoletan pizzas!

The Neapolitan pizzas are very good, and there's a wide choice. The ones with blue cheese are to die for!

Pros: great selection, good taste, central location

Cons: takeaway only (limited space inside)

Incredible pizza

I ordered delivery, it arrived cold, and it was still one of the best pizzas I’ve had! I tried The Hugo and the combination of pear, blue cheese, and basalmic glaze was creative and incredibly delicious.

I’d highly recommend this pizza.

So glad you enjoyed! The rain really slowed the delivery riders down today so unfortunately there were delays. We'd love to welcome you to the shop anytime for a pizza straight from the oven!

Really great pizza, came with some dill & garlic sauce on the side. Enjoyed the shelf with increasingly hot chilli oils as well!
