Pizzeria Ercole In Pietra ligure

A simple pizzeria, as you'd imagine in Italy. There's an order and pick-up counter, and the tables are set up under umbrellas in front of the building. The menu is displayed on the tables, and you order at the counter. The food is incredibly delicious and even reasonably priced. You simply have to try it. Since it's a self-service option, the service rating is difficult to assess. The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff is top-notch!

We were here in September 2025; the weather was nice, and being outside was a pleasure. We ate Fugassin and two pizzas. The place is very popular, especially with locals. There's no indoor seating, and the tables are set out on the square in front of the place. Drinks can be taken directly from the fridge. You're served upon request when the food is ready. The Fugassin was good, and the pizzas were average. When a Fugassin fell onto the display between the people and the fryer, and the display wasn't exactly clean (you put your hands and money on it, etc.), the waiter promptly replaced it for us, even putting the dropped Fugassin back among the freshly made ones :D During the night, I woke up and had to get out of bed to get a drink. Perhaps the dough hadn't risen properly (or was too salty, they tell me, but I don't remember noticing that it was too salty).

Make the pizza with fresh mushrooms and it gets 5 stars 🤗

Fugassin is delicious and can be paired with both savoury and sweet dishes.

Ercole's Fugassin aren't just a food, they're an institution. Always hot, perfectly cooked, and with cured meats, cheeses, or Nutella, they never tire. Anyone who visits Pietra should always come here and try them.

I got takeout pizza, but above all, the Fugassin. A must.

If you're in Pietra Ligure, you can't miss Ercole! 🍕 Here you'll find fragrant and delicious pizzas, perfectly stuffed piadinas, and the famous Ligurian fugassin, prepared with love and always served with a smile. All at truly affordable prices: excellent quality without breaking the bank. A place that wins you over from the first bite and will make you want to return again and again. Highly recommended! 🌟

Takeout pizzeria with dine-in options. Formal atmosphere. Very good and easy-to-digest pizzeria with quality ingredients. Their specialty, "fugasin" with Nutella, is a real treat, and is loved by both adults and children.

Highly recommended 👍best pizza in Pietra Ligure 😋😋😋

Starbucks-style service: you order your pizza at the counter and are called when it's ready. If you're unlucky, there won't be a table available because there are more people than there are tables. The pizza was good, but nothing special.
