Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this food tours class:

Embark on a life-changing journey through Brooklyn's diverse pizza scene, exploring a mix of wood-fired, coal-fired, and classic New York slice joints. Discover the rich history of pizza while indulging in tastings, kitchen tours, and in-depth analysis. Tour includes a full pizza lunch with stops at three pizzerias. 

What's Included

All tours include pizza tastings, kitchen tours, in-depth pizza analysis, and everybody gets a take-home Pocket Pizza Journal to help track their tastings.

Weather & Attire

All tours run rain or shine. Tour itineraries are flexible enough that rain and snow won't cause a problem. Please remember to wear comfortable shoes and dress appropriately, as we will be outside for most of the tour.

What To Bring?

We strongly recommend bringing a refillable container for water. We discourage the use of bottled water, as New York’s tap water is among the cleanest and tastiest in the country. You’ll also want to bring a camera, your love of adventure and an insatiable appetite.

Please also bring a face mask, as your guide may ask you to wear it while touring pizzeria kitchens.

Accessibility

  • This tour has some stops with 1-4 steps
  • Restrooms are available at most pizzerias

    We really enjoyed the Downtown Brooklyn Pizza Walk. As New Yorkers we were interested to see what pizza would be showcased and while the places we visited were serving delicious pizza, we were slightly disappointed that we did not get what we consider a real NY slice (triangle slice of pizza, sauce, and mozzarella that you have to pat with a napkin to soak up some of the grease). However, we visited 3 excellent places - one coal-fired, one wood-fired, and one serving Sicilian pizza and met new people from California and Washington. All of the pizzas were delicious and the discussions about the dough, sauce, and mozzarella were interesting. Definitely recommend if you are a pizza lover and would enjoy an afternoon strolling downtown Brooklyn and eating some tasty pizzas.

    We had a wonderful time. Krista was a terrific leader. She was cheerful, entertaining, informative and interactive with the group. She Remembered our names, and made sure to keep track of “who was with whom” or “ made new friends with whom”.

    Our guide, Krista, was truly amazing. She was so informative and fun to be around, and made the whole experience as enjoyable as possible. She was the best part of the whole tour, which is saying something considering we spent several hours eating different delicious pizzas! The whole experience was so fun, and the tour group was such a cool mix of first time NYC-eras and people who’ve lived here forever, like me. I learned so much about my favorite food, and had so much fun doing it. I’d recommend this tour to anyone!

    Krista was a fantastic guide! She was so personable, interesting, and well informed. We discovered so much about the art of pizza making, as well as how our pallets are affected by different flavors and taste. I've already recommended the tour to friends, and we look forward to taking another tour soon. Thanks to Krista it was a wonderful trip into Brooklyn and well worth the cost and the time.

    Alexis did a great job at explaining the history of pizza in an interesting way, while being open to any questions we had. Out of the three Pizza's we've had, I definitely see Sottocassa as my favorite. Thanks for showing me what Brooklyn has to offer in terms of pizza places.

    I can't recommend this course enough. Alexis was incredibly knowledgeable and hilariously engaging. I appreciated his passion for eating and educating. I thought I was just going to be walking around stuffing my face with pizza, but instead I found myself taking notes so I could remember the what and why of the pizza that I liked. The tour was also thoughtfully structured from lighter to denser pizza tastings. I'll be keeping this tour in mind for future visitors from out of town!

Question from Lucy L.
Which pizzerias does the tour hit? Thanks!
Answer from Scott W. Verified Educator
Our guides have the freedom to curate their tours as they desire, whether it's due to pizza happenings, pizza science, crowd excitement, etc. so there are no set routes for any tours. However, the areas the pizzerias occur in, can help you see what possibilities there might be - 11:45AM Brooklyn Tour is in the Cobble Hill area, and the 5PM Brooklyn Tour is in Williamsburg. Many thanks!
