The best Pizza in Kiel
Let’s be honest: pizza’s always a winner! Whether it’s after a day at the beach, during a TV series binge, for a first date or as some comfort food after a long day at work. The cheese has to melt, the base has to be crispy, and hey presto, life’s a little bit better. Luckily, Kiel doesn’t just have fish rolls – it’s also got some bloody good pizza on offer, from Neapolitan and Roman to New York-style!
60 seconds to Napli
Question: Who needs a flight to Italy when you can be in Naples in just 60 seconds right here in Kiel?! That’s exactly how long it takes for the pizza to cook in the oven at ‘60 seconds to Napoli’ on the Kiellinie. Using authentic San Marzano tomatoes, fior di latte and dough left to rise for 72 hours, a Neapolitan pizza is conjured up here in a 485° oven that will instantly transport you to the south.
Why you must go: This isn’t just a pizza – it’s a mini-break in Campania. The perfect way to round off your obligatory stroll along the Kiellinie!
📍 Reventlouallee 2, Kiel
Dill Pizza
Minimalist, but absolutely delicious. In this little pizzeria with a cosy, living-room atmosphere, there are just four rotating varieties, but they’re absolutely brilliant. Seasonal ingredients, local suppliers and a generous helping of love make every pizza one of a kind. Always on offer: vegan, vegetarian and meat-based options.
Why you’ve got to go: Small, creative, community-driven – Dill Pizza is like the indie label of the pizzeria world. A real hidden gem!
📍 Wilhelminenstraße 17
POI
Three venues, three times the love of pizza! POI has long been a cult favourite in the city and has been bringing Italian flair to the north for over 10 years. The pizza concept at two of the three venues: thin, Roman-style crust meets truly delicious flavours! Particularly popular (with us too!) is the Pizza Romantica with pesto, tomatoes and mozzarella – it tastes like a quick trip to Rome. Location number three serves up delicious Neapolitan pizza – yum!
Why you’ve got to go: Three locations, one motto: authentic, Italian, delicious. And psst: it’s worth a visit just for the homemade tiramisu for dessert!

Grandma's Flour
The name ‘Nonna’ is right there in the name – and that’s exactly what it tastes like. Following Grandma’s recipe, the dough is left to prove for up to 72 hours with minimal yeast and maximum flavour. The crust is light and fluffy yet crispy, the sauce is full of flavour, and the ingredients are carefully selected. Each base is shaped by hand, baked on a stone, and takes on its very own character – sometimes not quite round, but always absolutely delicious.
Why you’ve got to go: Because here you can taste that pizza can be more than just fast food. Authentic, lovingly made and just like ‘Nonna’s’.
📍 Eichkamp 1, Kiel

The legendary giant pizza (no joke – one pizza easily feeds two) is also available ‘half & half’ with different toppings on request. Perfect for those who can’t make up their minds!
