ABOUT LITTLE PYG
Little Pyg offers classic and modern Italian food using only the best Italian and Irish ingredients, served in one of Dublin’s most unique restaurant settings at the centre of the historic Powerscourt Townhouse Centre, surrounded by stunning greenery and foliage.
Established in 2019, Little Pyg’s pizzas are much loved and critically acclaimed. At the prestigious World Pizza Awards held in Naples in September 2024 Little Pyg was proudly named Ireland’s #1 Pizzeria and earned a spot in the Top 100 Pizzerias in the World. This recognition places Little Pyg among the highest echelons of global pizza standards, following its prior success at the Pizza Europa Awards held in Barcelona in May 2024, where it secured #15 in Europe and hence was selected to solely represent Ireland at ‘The Worlds’. Little Pyg was also recognised as one of Europe’s Top 50 pizzerias in May 2023 when it placed #27 on the renowned listing.
300 years of Italian technique go into our pizza making process and this is evident in the sumptuous authentic Neapolitan style pizzas with 50% less calories. From our “spectacular oven built on-site from scratch brick by brick”, and how we prepare this wood-fired oven for use, to the specific temperature the oven must maintain, the quality of the oil and toppings used, the traditional methods of checking the freshness of ingredients such as Mozzarella, the dough making and flipping process, as well as the very precise time each pizza must cook for 55 seconds each and so much more, we ensure that each customer’s pizza earns its’ world class title.”
