The Background of Our Establishment
Since 1985, creating genuine Italian pizzas with fervor
Tracing Our Roots from Naples to Your Locale
The dream behind 'PineCrestHall': to transport the essence of Neapolitan pizzas to London. The Rossi household, in the year 1985, laid the foundation of our little family-owned pizzeria, where cherished recipes were nurtured over generations.
Our patriarch, Marco Rossi, after an Italian sojourn, mastering the taverns of Naples—the cradle of the pizza craft—returned with the intent to bring to the UK the classic Naples pizza, employing age-old practices and premium ingredients.
Our humble beginnings from a quaint 12-seater have expanded into a neighborhood favorite. Yet, our ethos of quality and genuineness endures immutably. Our daily fresh dough, and unwavering search for the most exquisite ingredients, mirrors our traditions.
Maintaining its familial roots, 'PineCrestHall' now sails into its second-generation stewardship, guided by the Rossi lineage, ensuring each pizza carries our legacy that unites our patrons.

Focused on Community
