Stone-Baked Pizza Dunmore East

The Spinnaker Bar serves stone-baked pizza in Dunmore East, right on the harbour in Lower Village. Peter — the owner — runs a wood-fired oven behind the bar. Pizzas range from €13.50 to €21. You can walk in most days or ring Peter on (051) 383 133 to book for Friday and Sunday evenings or groups of six or more.

The Pizzas Peter Makes

Peter makes eleven pizzas in the wood-fired oven at The Spinnaker Bar, Lower Village, Dunmore East. The Margherita is €13.50. The Hawaiian is €16. The BBQ Chicken is €17.50. The Spinnaker Special — topped with prawn, chorizo, peppers, red onion — is €21. Peter uses mozzarella, fresh tomato base, and local toppings where he can get them. The oven sits behind the bar, so you can watch the pizzas go in. They come out charred at the edge, soft in the middle, the way stone-baked pizza should. Peter posts this week's food hours on Facebook, so check there before you come.
