The centrepiece of our newly refurbished kitchen. 🔥🍕

Meet our new Forni Valoriani pizza oven.

Founded in Florence in 1890, this family-run Italian business has been building pizza ovens for well over a century, and we can already see why they’ve earned their reputation.

Since firing ours up, the difference has been huge. More consistent bakes, better control and pizzas that are genuinely head and shoulders above what we could produce with our previous oven.

It’s been a game changer for us, and another big step in our mission to make seriously good Neapolitan pizza.

Weekend plans? Pizza and a pint! 🍕🍺

Here’s a top tip from us: pair your pizza with a Kinnegar Scraggy Bay from the bar.

Brewed in County Donegal, it’s a cracking American style IPA with pine and citrus hop notes and a crisp, clean bitter finish that goes ridiculously well with proper Neapolitan pizza.

Pizza. Scraggy Bay. Ats us nai! 🐇🔥

What exactly makes a Neapolitan pizza… Neapolitan? 🍕🇮🇹

It starts with the dough.

That signature soft, chewy centre and light, puffy, airy crust doesn’t happen by accident. At The Boxing Hare, we use Caputo 00 flour and a slow fermentation process that we’ve refined over decades of making Neapolitan pizza here in Belfast.

At the heart of our dough is our poolish — a living starter we’ve been maintaining and fermenting for over a year — before the dough itself is given a full 48-hour proof to develop flavour, structure and that unmistakable texture.

Because when it comes to proper Neapolitan pizza, you can have the best toppings in the world, but it means nothing without the perfect base.

Decades of experience. 48 hours of patience. A few minutes in a seriously hot oven.

That’s Neapolitan pizza. 🔥🍕

Good pizza starts with good ingredients. Great pizza starts with the very best. 🍕🧀

That’s why we’re proud to be working with Belfast’s own Mike’s Fancy Cheese, bringing their award-winning artisan cheeses straight from Little Donegall Street to The Boxing Hare.

These guys have spent over a decade making and championing incredible Irish cheese, including their award-winning Young Buck — and now we’re putting that expertise to very good use on our pizzas.

Proper dough. Proper cheese. Proper Belfast produce.
