Quick info
About Antico Forno Wigan
Antico Forno Wigan is a pizza restaurant on Ormskirk Road in Wigan, centred on wood-fired pizza prepared in the traditional Italian style. The menu stretches beyond pizza into pasta, burgers, kebabs and a dessert list that includes the Oreo waffle and other ice cream options, reflecting its broad subcategory range. Service runs on a walk-in basis, with seating limited to a couple of tables inside and a takeaway service for those collecting to eat elsewhere. The small front-of-house keeps the focus on the food coming out of the wood oven, and the counter handles both sit-down and collection orders throughout opening hours. The restaurant sits on a main road just outside Wigan town centre, serving as a neighbourhood stop for residents and passers-by heading along Ormskirk Road.

“Was at an event at the stadium, and came out starving. I did a quick Google and come across Antico Forno. What a great place! Such a breath of fresh air to be able to have an authentic wood fired pizza, with an Oreo waffle. Staff were lovely and friendly. Food was that good I didn't even take a photo! Takeaways were super busy, we ate inside, there a couple of tables, we will be back 😋”
