Discover the best pizza in Valencia

Valencia runs the third-largest pizza scene in Spain, behind Barcelona and Madrid, and it grew up fast over the last decade. The city is better known for rice than dough, but its pizzerias have quietly become some of the country's most consistent.

The dominant style is Neapolitan, cooked in a wood oven in under 90 seconds. Most of the serious rooms sit in Ruzafa, the design-and-nightlife district south of the old center, with a second cluster in the medieval streets of El Carmen. The scene ladders up from Valencia's region hub.

The most popular pizzeria in the city by review volume is Latte & Farina, one of 30 spots we list here. Did you know Valencia's pizza boom tracked its Ruzafa renewal? The neighborhood's shift from working-class quarter to creative district in the 2010s brought the wood ovens with it.

Prices read fair. A margherita usually lands between 9 and 14 euros at a serious room, and walk-ins work outside peak hours. The spots ranked here are ranked by what people who came for the pizza actually thought, not by which terrace caught the most sun.
