The Story Behind Punch pizza
Founded in the heart of Minneapolis, Punch pizza was born from a simple love for authentic Neapolitan-style wood-fired pizza — the kind you'd find in the traditional pizzerias of Naples, Italy.
It all started when our founders returned from a trip to Italy, captivated by the simple perfection of a margherita pulled straight from a wood-burning oven. Back in Minneapolis, they set out to recreate that experience — sourcing the finest ingredients, mastering the craft of naturally leavened dough, and building stone ovens that reach the perfect blistering temperature.
Over a decade later, Punch pizza has become a beloved Minneapolis institution. Our commitment to quality, community, and craft has never wavered. Every pie we serve is a testament to the traditions that inspired us and the people we serve.
