Pecora Nera

Top choice in Agropoli


Agropoli’s self-proclaimed ‘black sheep’, Pecora Nera has emerged as a new challenger for the title of the town’s ‘best pizza’ and they might just be on to something. The small but slickly furnished pizzeria in a piazza by the port is run by a hip team of ragazzi whose uncluttered pizzas use a light chewy dough and carefully sourced DOP ingredients.

The salads put in a solid cameo performance.
