About Pizza Fella

Proper Neapolitan pizza, cooked in a wood-fired oven.

Pizza Fella Description

Proper Neapolitan pizza, cooked in an authentic wood-fired oven.

After a pizza soul-searching odyssey to Naples left us with wood fire in our bellies, we came back on a mission: to bring proper Neapolitan pizzas to the people of Yorkshire.

We bought Claude, our 1967 Citroen H Van, installed a wood-fired oven in the back and off we went.

Three years on, we now have a permanent pizzeria at 114-116 Vicar Lane, Leeds. Proper pizza, proper beers, proper music.

We don't take bookings (unless you're a table of 8 or more) so just turn up and make yourself at home.

How’s that dry January doing? We have the best Italian soft drinks around, Galvanina lemonade, pomegranate, blood orange & prickly pear and mandarin. Come give them a try?

As we’re big fans of using the best possible ingredients it goes without saying that we’ve sourced (in our opinion) some of the best panettones from Borsari, these guys have been hand making them in Italy the same way since 1902.
The 1kg hand wrapped panettones are £16 each and come in 4 flavours: pear & chocolate drops (pictured), chocolate chips coated with plain chocolate & hazelnut, wild berries & mascarpone and pistachio cream.
We also have cute mini ones which make gre...at stocking fillers (or a treat for yourself) at £3 each.
We’ve not got loads so grab them from the pizzeria while stocks last! @ Pizza Fella

the pizzas here are some of the best i have had in leeds (hence the 5 stars), they do it the right way with a massive stone oven at the back of the room, the topings are on point and i really cant fault the food at all. the staff are always friendly and the service I've found was fest enough.



some better chairs would be a huge improvement though as the low backed ones can be uncomfortable.

User

Went here first time last night..definitely my kinda pizza place...loved my spicy pizza! Vegan ice cream for dessert..yummy! Lovely wine, fast,efficient service...would definitely recommend if you love an authentic Italian pizza! üòÅ

User

Unbelievable pizza...simple Margherita was the most delicious i can remember having. Dough is so tasty and toppings and sauce is unreal. I could have eaten 2!ÔøΩÔøΩÔøΩ definetly going back.

User

Stopped off at pizza fella today mid shopping with my 13 month old daughter. The team were really great and accommodating, bringing me a high chair and taking the time to entertain my daughter whilst also looking after the other customers. The menu all sounded excellent with a great range of Italian brewed beers and delicious wines. I sampled a session pale ale that was brilliant. My pizza was the finest I've had outside of Italy and the price beyond reasonable. I would recommend anyone who likes good food good drink and good service to visit here.

User

Stopped for a pizza with my sister. Very friendly staff, amazing pizza (probably the best one I have ever had) and lovely interior. Really nice place ÔøΩ

User

Saturday in Leeds was very busy. (Some girlie band in town.) Most restaurants were full, so we were lucky to find a table for two here in Vicar Lane. A trendy place, with an interesting choice of food and drinks. Alex, our server, was attentive and helpful. We enjoyed two tasty pizzas; all good value. Well done everyone.

I only came across these pizzas at the Chapel Allerton festival recently! At a van (I now know is called Claude!) they were delicious! The best pizza I've had in a while- the perfect pizza infact! The next day I was wishing I had remembered the name so I could hunt them down and get some more.. and I've just seen this page! Yay ÔøΩÔøΩ i'l be coming to try out the restaurant very soon with some friends! ÔøΩÔøΩ

I have never bothered to write a review before so this is a first for me. Being from Naples myself, I was sceptical of the claim that they served "authentic" Neapolitan pizza. So many eateries make similar claims and so many eateries just haven't a clue what an authentic Neapolitan pizza looks and tastes like. The wood fired oven being used properly was impressive, the decor unusual but likeable and the menu sparse, concentrating on the main event: pizza. That fact alone held promise. This meant no hiding... the restaurant was going to be judged by the quality of their pizza and nothing else. I went for a nosey and chatted to the owner. It was clear this guy had a love of what he was doing. When the pizza came it was as good as promised. It was cooked how a Neapolitan pizza should be... pizza in, 90 seconds later, pizza out. Cooked to perfection. I shall be going back and will have no problem taking my Italian relatives there.

User

Happy Birthday Pizza fella! ÔøΩ

Best pizza I've ever had. Squidgey beautiful dough. I wanna work my way through the menu, but you can't beat a classic margarita.

So good. I think about it all the time.

Great Nduja pizza. Had a BrewFist IPA too. Wished you did some beers on tap too for cheaper than the bottles

User

Finally experienced Pizza Fella for the first time after you were recommended and wow I wasn't dissapointed! Our server was lovely... can't remember her name (blonde hair) I will see you again with our matching bright coloured hair to match my mums you commented on! I demolished my pizza, it was delicious and discovering the peanut butter chocolate and salted caramel Gelato on the menu for dessert made my day.... was heavenly! See you again soon definately.. keep up the good work guys! :)

User

Fantastic. I’d have given them 10 stars �. This has got to be the best pizza in Yorkshire. Excellent food in a very chilled environment. Thanks to the guys at #Outlaws Yacht Club for recommending #Pizza Fella.

User

Excellecent wood fired pizza, definitely worth a visit. Only found out about this place on Tuesday and visited Friday 31 March. The only slight tweak to make would that the seating could maybe do with some padding on them. Couldn't eat all the pizza as had been greedy and got the marinara to start but as soon as we were ready to go we got asked if we wanted a box to take it home in. Errr hell yes I am not leaving this delicious pizza behind and now I get to enjoy how good it is another day!!

User

Everytime anyone suggests going out for food I never choose Italian, especially pizza as it’s just not ‘italian’

with horribly poor bread bases, So it was with trepidation that we went in. It was honestly the best authentic pizza I have eaten outside of Italy. Small menu that concentrated on the main event - pizza. I will definitely be going back. Good service too

User

Simple, authentic fresh pizzas. Reasonably priced along with the wines for a city. Will return.

User

Fantastic Pizzas and very friendly staff. only down side was when a friend requested parmesan she was brought out a tiny shot glass, which she sprinkled over and the portion was tiny!...when another friends pizza arrived she also requested parmesan and was asked where the tiny portion was? so we would be charged for another tiny shot of it....over 12.00 per pizza @3 and very expensive sparkling water and 2 alcoholic drinks the bill wasn't shy of 60.00 bit of a let down at that. don't be greedy with your parmesan haha.

User

The Pizza was good, can't fault it. It's just that after ordering a gin & tonic (£4.50) and being told they'd run out of tonic, i said I'll have it with lemonade instead then. To then be billed for a lemonade and gin seperately to amount to something near £7 (can't remember exact) was just a bit weird tbh. Left disappointed.

User

Was told we had 20 mins til they closed but that was fine, completely rushed through my order. Pizza arrived and the music was turned off and tables were being cleared around us. Asked for the music to be turned back on and they refused. Real shame, pizza was delicious.

User
