Pizzeria L'Ancora In Barletta

17/11/2025: Returning to Peppo's on Via Regina Margherita is always a pleasure. This pizzeria has a nostalgic feel that makes me feel at home, and the owner, Peppe, is a real character, friendly and just the right amount of gruff. Let's talk about the basics: the fried foods are delicious and the drinks are always cold. But the real honorable mention goes to the baked panzerotti, simply excellent. As a lover of spicy food, both the panzerotto and the spicy salami pizza are a real treat that never disappoints. I like the pizza because it has a lovely crunchy texture. There's great honesty in the dish: they don't skimp on the quantity of ingredients, and even if we're not talking about "top-quality" raw materials, the result is more than satisfactory. Above all, and this is crucial, I've never had digestive problems the next day. Of course, the dough could be even better, perhaps with a longer leavening time, but that's just a small detail. In short: it might not be the most technically incredible pizza I've ever tasted, but I always go back to Peppo's. For the average in Barletta, the quality-price ratio is simply superb. Highly recommended.

29/08/2025: Takeout pizzeria. The pizzas are generally good. We ordered them a couple of nights because we were nearby. The crust is thin and crispy (I prefer them softer), the ingredients are decent and generously portioned. Prices are good. The atmosphere doesn't convey a great sense of cleanliness (they may be spotless, but that's just how it looks). Some pizzas were overcooked, with burnt edges and bases.
