"Incredible experience for our last night in Polignano. Our server, Angelo was top notch and offered such incredible service that we truly felt like friends at the end of the night. There were so many pizzas to choose from and we enjoyed the meal very much. The desserts he suggested were unique and tasty as well. Overall a lovely experience and we’d love to return."

Where to eat in Polignano: my favourite places
In the very centre, this pizzeria lies just after the Lama Monachile bridge (or just before it according to the direction you are coming from). A nice little place where you can eat an excellent pizza even more so if you sit outside in a warm summer evening. The hors d’oeuvres in terrines are very good as well.
