Crispy Pizza Bistro
Crispy Pizza Bistro serves thin, delicious pizzas with innovative flavors. And, of course, as the name tells, they’re incredibly crispy. Luxury metropolitan pizzas as they describe their creations themselves. The menu includes modern fine pizzas, classics, and gluten-free and vegan pizzas. But whatever you choose, they only use locally produced quality ingredients, such as organic Swedish flour and meat from Swedish farms.
The successful pizza adventure began in Sydney, where founder Henrik Salén was trained to become a pizza master and then founded a Swedish pizza bistro that became a success down under. He then brought the concept home to Sweden and opened the first Crispy Pizza Bistro in 2015. Today, it has grown to five restaurants around Stockholm where you can eat, socialize, and have a good time “The Crispy Way” in cozy settings.
In addition to fantastic pizzas, Crispy Pizza Bistro also has tasty burgers. We’re talking juicy smash burgers packed with flavors that are just as good as the pizzas. And if you’re in the mood for something else to eat, there are also flatbreads, chicken wings, and salads on the menu. Plus craft beer, wine, cocktails and other drinks.
