Best Pizza in Tynemouth

Crust Social, Davanti Classico, and stone-baked at the Salutation — the best pizza in Tynemouth.

Tynemouth.live·

Tynemouth punches well above its weight for pizza. Within a short walk of the village centre you can find authentic Neapolitan sourdough, wood-fired Italian in a Grade II listed railway station, and stone-baked pub pizzas with two-for-one deals. Whether you are after a proper sit-down meal or a takeaway box to eat on the benches overlooking the coast, there is something here for every mood and budget.

Crust Social

Crust Social at 14 Percy Park Road is the one that serious pizza fans talk about. Specialising in Neapolitan-style pizza, the dough is freshly prepared and cooked in a specialist oven that produces a light, charred, pillowy base with proper chew. Toppings are simple and well-sourced -- San Marzano tomato sauce, fior di latte mozzarella, quality cured meats -- and the results speak for themselves.

The restaurant is small and atmospheric, with an open kitchen so you can watch your pizza being made. There is a good selection of craft beers from local breweries alongside Italian beers and wines. Open Wednesday to Sunday, with lunchtime service at weekends. Grab a takeaway box and walk down to the coast if you want to eat your pizza with a sea view -- the benches are only minutes away.

Best for: Neapolitan sourdough, open kitchen, craft beer selection. Small and atmospheric -- the purist's choice.

Davanti Classico

Davanti Classico is beautifully set within the Grade II listed Tynemouth Station -- one of the most striking restaurant locations on the North East coast. The menu celebrates traditional Italian cooking, with handmade pasta and wood-fired pizzas sitting alongside indulgent desserts and carefully selected wines.

The Rapido Menu, available Monday to Friday from 12pm to 6pm, offers two courses for an excellent price, making it a smart option for a weekday lunch. There are also private dining rooms available for special occasions. The setting alone makes it worth a visit, but the food is more than good enough to justify a return trip on its own merits. Booking is recommended, especially at weekends.

Best for: Wood-fired pizza in a stunning Grade II listed station, weekday set menu, private dining available.

The Salutation

The Salutation offers authentic stone-baked pizzas alongside its pub menu. The Monday night two-for-one pizza deal is one of the best value meals in Tynemouth -- a proper stone-baked pizza and a drink for a very reasonable price. The rest of the week, pizzas are available alongside the full pub menu in a relaxed, family-friendly setting.

This is the kind of place where you can combine a pizza with a pint in a proper pub atmosphere without any pretension. The pizzas are well-made and generously topped, and the Monday deal makes it an easy choice for a cheap night out.

Best for: Stone-baked pub pizzas, Monday two-for-one deal, relaxed atmosphere, great value.

Pizza Amore

Pizza Amore on Front Street is a solid delivery and collection option when you want pizza at home rather than eating out. Available through delivery platforms, it offers a broad menu of pizzas alongside the usual sides and extras. A dependable choice for a Friday night in.

Best for: Delivery and collection from Front Street, broad menu, a reliable takeaway option.
