6 years… how did that happen so quickly?
It feels like yesterday when we made one of the bravest decisions of our lives: to open the restaurant we had dreamed about for years.
The year was 2020. COVID, lockdowns, uncertainty everywhere. Opening a restaurant probably sounded crazy. But we looked at each other and thought… IF NOT NOW, THEN WHEN?
On 15 October 2020, Naughty Pizza Bedford opened its doors. And Bedford… WOW! ❤️
We remember the queues outside, orders flying through the kitchen, the laughter, the madness and your incredible welcome.
We never wanted to create just another restaurant. We wanted a neighbourhood home: somewhere to share pizza, celebrate, laugh, make memories and feel part of something special.
And what a journey it has been.
Six years of happiness and friendships. But also tears, sleepless nights, sacrifices and challenges. Running a small family business isn’t easy, especially today.
Yet our dream hasn’t changed. Our passion has only grown stronger.
From Bedford to three more locations in Dubai 🇬🇧🇦🇪 — further than we ever dared imagine. And we still have so much we want to do.
Where will we be in another six years? Who knows! But we are not done dreaming.
To everyone who has walked through our doors, shared a meal, celebrated with us, joined an event, ordered a takeaway or simply recommended us to a friend: THANK YOU. You’ve helped write our story.
To our teams, past and present, across the UK and UAE: you are the heart of Naughty Pizza. A special thank you to Aldona & Wojtek, and to every person who has believed in us and stood beside us. You will always be part of our family. ❤️
Bedford, you were our first home and our first leap of faith. We will never forget that.
Six years later, we are still a small family business, still learning, still fighting, still laughing and still putting our hearts into every pizza.
Because it was never just about pizza. It was always about people.
With all our love,
Bart & Monika and the entire Naughty Pizza family 🍋
Our story continues… ❤️
