About Us

Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana is the original New Haven style coal fired pizza, a Connecticut tradition since 1925. Our approach is simple: the best ingredients on the best dough, every time. The way Frank intended. But, simple doesn’t mean ordinary. We take the best ingredients available- vibrant Italian tomatoes, freshly grated Pecorino Romano, scratch made dough, lively, fresh olive oil- and transform them into the finest pizza in the world, baked expertly in our hand-crafted ovens. We embrace the heat and prize our charred crust tradition while honoring the simple beauty of exceptional ingredients. It’s not primitive, it’s elemental. We do things the same way Frank Pepe did them nearly a century ago after settling in New Haven from Italy. When you enjoy a Pepe’s pie, you’re enjoying a slice of history. Some may say we’re stuck in time. We say we like it that way.
