Descubre la mejor pizza de Ercolano

Pizza in Ercolano sits on the same volcanic ground that shaped the ancient Roman town and the tomatoes grown around Vesuvius. This is Campania, close enough to Naples that Neapolitan pizza is the working language rather than a theme.

The current map is deliberately short. Pizzeria Le Parùle and the other listed rooms cover a town where many visitors arrive for the archaeological site, then leave by Circumvesuviana. Staying for dinner gives the dough more room than a rushed snack beside the station.

Herculaneum was buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79, but by different volcanic material from Pompeii, preserving timber and upper floors in remarkable detail. We rank Ercolano's pizza by what is on the plate, not by which sign catches the day-trip crowd.
