About Scarpello & Co Bakehouse & Pizzeria
Scarpello & Co Bakehouse & Pizzeria is a family-run pizza restaurant at 22B Buncrana Rd in Londonderry, pairing a wild-fermented sourdough bakery with a wood-fired pizzeria.

The pizza menu is numbered, with a Margarita among the named options, and vegan cheese is available as a topping choice. The pizzas are large. Flatbreads, including a zaatar flatbread, and a House Salad sit alongside them. Gelato in vanilla bean and pistachio rounds out the menu, with lemon sorbet also available.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return mostly for the pizzas, with the Margarita and the numbered menu pizzas, No. 8 and No. 6, singled out. Giant portions leave some taking half home. Close behind are the salads, a zaatar flatbread and the gelato, with pistachio and vanilla bean named, plus a frappe, lemon sorbet and a walnut and caramel tart. The bakery side draws praise for coffee and buns, and one reviewer mentions a vegan cheese option. Service comes up repeatedly as friendly and fast even when busy, and one family describes their two young children being welcomed with colouring pages and crayons. The one caution is secondhand: a reviewer has heard the cinnamon buns sell out within about half an hour each morning, and suggests going in early evening for a better chance at a table. One reviewer arrived at around 4:15 and had no problem getting one. A birthday lunch ended with takeaway lemon sorbet and a tart.

“Great Pizzas and salads. No 6 pizza on the menu was spot on. Sorry can't remember the name. I'll post a photo. Overall recommended.”

“Took my fiance for his birthday surprise lunch. It was first class as always. The staff were all very friendly, there is one woman in particular with brown hair who is always smiling but unfortunately I don't know her name! She gives the same great service every time & gives plenty of great advice on choices! We shared a flat bread for starters, pizza & fries while we sat in, everything was fantastic. On leaving we had a Frappe, lemon sorbet & a Walnut/caramel tart to take out. The frappe is one of the best I have had (coffee with a pump for vanilla & caramel) & the lemon sorbet is out of this world!”

“Had the sweetest waiter! Giant pizzas, took home half of my No. 8 and got a delicious vanilla bean gelato to go. I hear their cinnamon buns are legendary but sell out in 30 min each morning. Suggest going in early evening for better chance at getting a table. Had no problem at around 4:15.”

“We ate here today (after many previous attempts) - it is a popular spot, and with great reason. I was expecting it to be brilliant and had expected great things from the food but it really was outstanding and deserves every bit of praise it gets. Not only was the food outstanding but the service was just exceptional. We ate with our two young children, which oftens feels like an inconvenience to most restaurants but in Scarpello & Co they were welcomed with open arms. The type of service they offer in here is really quite special. From the colouring pages / crayons offered from the second we arrived and flexible menu offerings to authentic warmth and genuine engagement with our kids! Other places should really take note - it would make families come more often! 11/10, if I could give 6* I would! We will be back and recommending to everyone!!”
