Our Story

From humble beginnings to pizza perfection

Apache Pizza was founded in 1995 with a simple dream: to bring authentic Italian pizza to every corner of Ireland. What started as a small family-owned pizzeria in Dublin has grown into one of Ireland's most beloved pizza delivery brands.

Our founder, Giuseppe Romano, immigrated to Ireland from Naples with his grandmother's secret pizza recipes and an unwavering commitment to quality. He believed that great pizza wasn't just about the ingredients, but about the passion and tradition that goes into every single pie.

Today, Apache Pizza continues to honor that legacy with over 50 locations across Ireland, serving fresh, made-to-order pizzas using the finest ingredients sourced locally whenever possible. Every pizza that leaves our kitchen carries the same dedication to excellence that Giuseppe instilled from day one.
