Our Journey
Celebrating the tradition of genuine Italian pizza with a touch of devotion since 1985
Traveling from Napoli to Your Home District
'SproutPantryButter' started as a vision: transporting true Neapolitan pizza to Via Nazionale. The venture, initiated by the Bianchi lineage in 1985, emerged as a quaint family-operated local store, fostering ancestral recipes passed through generations.
Marco Bianchi, our progenitor, acquired the craft of pizza creation while journeying across Italy, mentored by renowned pizza experts in Naples—the cradle of pizza. Back in the UK, her ambition was to offer the quintessential Italian pizza experience by adhering to established methods and selecting only the top-tier ingredients.
From its origin as a humble pizza shop with just a dozen seats, it has flourished into a community-favored hub, yet our dedication to the calibre and originality of our offerings stands firm. We preserve our wood-fired baking traditions, our dough is prepared fresh every day, and we obtain the finest components available.
Presently, 'SproutPantryButter' is still under the stewardship of the Bianchi family's second generation, who lead our zealous crew. Albeit incorporating contemporary improvements, the essence of our enterprise remains unchanged: making scrumptious, real pizza that unites people.

Our Guests' Impressions
This is the most genuine Neapolitan pizza experience I've encountered outside Italy. The dough has the perfect balance of elasticity with those enticing charred speckles that come only from a wood-fired hearth.
