Franco Manca Bournemouth

Bournemouth’s Franco Manca pizzeria location will set you up for the ideal pizza situation, as you dine with a treat of a view. Have a stunning sourdough with an equally stunning surrounding, as you gaze across the water from Bournemouth beach. If a salty dip in the sea isn’t your cup of tea, there are plenty of other activities in the area, to fuel up on pizza for. There’s mini golf at the Bournemouth parks, the observation wheel, or the pavilion theatre for a show and dinner. You could also catch the latest movie at the Odeon or check out the art gallery and museum. So what are you waiting for? Eat in or grab a slice to go while you bask in the sun on the promenade.

The restaurant has a charming façade and a large outside seating area, so you don’t have to fight over the view. The large, glass windows bring in plenty of bright light and airiness to the interior too. The custom-made Tufac brick ovens are a highlight and a sight to behold, as you watch the expert pizzaiolos work their magic. The delicious smell of Franco Manca’s signature sourdough baking away will delight your olfactory senses immediately, and have your hunger pangs excited to read the menu.

Whether you choose from the classic margherita or the special no.7 curated by Italian chefs inspired by their hometown of Naples, you can’t really go wrong here. The slow-rise sourdough is beautifully complemented by the well-sourced fresh ingredients. With their stunning selection of red Piennolo and San Marzano tomatoes and British cheeses, the pizzas glisten in the heat of the 500 degree ovens, ready to be pulled out after just 40 seconds. Pair with a no logo beer from a British brewery or a red wine from a Sicilian vineyard.
