The guide to Gothenburg's best pizza

At Walk in the Park in Linné they specialise in Roman-style pizzas. Choose whether you want a small, medium or large pizza and whether to accompany it with a glass of natural wine, a locally-brewed beer or perhaps an organic cocktail. The restaurant's leafy park-like surroundings, with trees and lanterns inside, add to the Mediterranean atmosphere.

As the name suggests, Bov Discobar invites you to an evening of bright colours, pop music, fabulous cocktails - and pizza! Culinary inspiration comes from the thin and crispy pizzas they serve in Rome, and, in addition to the menu's regular toppings, new, experimental pizzas pop up every now and then. The food is best combined with a glass of natural wine from one of the many colourful bottles in the disco bar's wine room.

Robb is run by the couple Karl and Linnea Robb Kaardal, who serve up Neapolitan pizzas and hand-selected wines with a passion for Italian food and drinks culture. The menu includes a couple of carefully selected traditional style pizzas, as well as a regularly-changing guest pizza and as a couple of small dishes and dessert. Pizzas are only served on site on Mariagatan.

Restaurang V aims to stimulate all of their guests' five senses - hence the name, in which the V stands for the Roman numeral for five. They serve innovative Genovese pizzas with both classic toppings and more modern ones, and there are always options for meat-eaters, vegetarians and people who don't eat pizza. A modern Italian, quite simply.  

Try out another kind of pizza, with French influences. Valentinas have made a name for themselves with their tartes flambées with various flavours and toppings. Gruyère cheese is a perennial favourite, as well as truffles, mushrooms, beetroot and walnuts. The tartes are served at lunch (a daily special) and at dinner and can be enjoyed alongside one of their European wines.

Innovative and successful pizza concept which now has several branches. Drop by no matter how hungry you are - pizzas are made in three different sizes and with masses of different toppings. At their Linné restaurant they also serve beer and wine.

Bar Minimal is run by a team of happy pizza enthusiasts who, after many attempts at home, finally achieved the perfect pizza dough. Pizza is the star of the show here, along with wine. Flavours vary according to the chefs' mood and inspiration and toppings could be anything from bleak roe to salsiccia and stracciatella.

BOV stands for two of the most important things you need to make pizza: bread and wood ("bröd och ved" in Swedish). Simplicity and taste are the watchwords at this restaurant between Vasa and Johanneberg. Their Neapolitan pizzas are made with sourdough bases and delicious toppings and just as in Naples, great-quality ingredients take pride of place here. The bar serves cocktails, beer and selected wines; on sunny days the little alfresco dining area fills up quickly.

Grano is run by Thomas Sjögren, who won Chef of the Year at just 23 years old , and who has also won the Chefs' Battle. His restaurant in Granö serves a pizza-focused menu, along with a bunch of small dishes with flavours from around the world. Dishes, as well as the toppings on the pizzas, vary according to the season, but the signature pizza with pancetta, comté and lemon has a regular spot on the menu all year round.

Get your fill of favourite Italian dishes at Magazzino. They use specially-imported flour from Naples and slowly prove their sourdough bases to achieve the perfect flavour and texture. Choose from toppings including cherry tomatoes, parma ham, aubergine and Italian pork belly.

Enjoy posh pizza in the former premises of the Gothenburg Auction House. A bistro feel and art-clad walls give the place a casual atmosphere - and what could be better than enjoying a pizza in beautiful surroundings like these? Pizzas are thin and crispy with selected toppings from mozzarella to bleak roe.

Oizo can be found in Kålltorp, a little way outside Gothenburg's city centre - well worth the trip if you're in the mood for artisanal pizza combined with locally produced beer and natural wine. The menu includes both regular favourites and guest appearances, often with some unexpected elements. The floor and walls are tiled in white which, together with simple wooden furniture, creates a charming, pared-back environment. Drop-in is the order of the day, so we recommend getting there in good time if you want to avoid standing in line.

Totale call themselves a "charmingly wonky neighbourhood restaurant" and an unpretentious warmth characterises both the menu and the atmosphere. Pizzas have their own menu and, just like everything at Totale, they're made from Scandinavian ingredients from local producers. The menu includes several white pizzas, with toppings such as smoked pork belly and bleak roe. Drinks-wise, natural wines are Totale's specialty.

This relaxed neighbourhood restaurant keeps things no-frills and fuss-free, simply serving what the chefs themselves like. The menu lists a wide range of Italian classics, including a couple of pizzas. If you come here during happy hour or post-work, pizza slices eaten with your fingers are the order of the day, preferably combined with a creative cocktail or something else tasty in your glass.

Deg means dough in Swedish and, as the name suggests, dough plays a starring role here. Their modest ambition is to create the perfect pizza, and to achieve this goal they experiment with different ingredients to create exciting new combinations and flavours. Fun cocktails, wine and beer are served alongside the pizza. The premises have a charming 70s-style vibe - inspired by the decade pizza first came to Sweden.

Sometimes one or two slices of pizza is enough, perhaps accompanied by some Italian bubbly. That's exactly what you can come to Pezzo for; they serve pizza by the slice, as well as a few other small dishes and Italian wines, in the lively surroundings of Saluhallen indoor food market. The motto "Don't worry, eat happy" sets the tone.

The guys behind Mela have taken their vision of authentic pizza from food truck to restaurant on Tritongatan. Here, Neapolitan pizzas are baked in a wood-fired oven and topped with both classic and slightly more innovative ingredients. Come here for an Italian-style post-work drink, or drop in for a tasty lunch.

Who knew you could gather together so many hipster-trendy elements under one roof? As the name suggests, Brewers Beer Bar has chosen to focus on beer from microbreweries, both local and international. Alongside beer, they serve pizzas in various exciting guises, baked using seven year-old sourdough. Who can resist?

The atmosphere at this hole-in-the-wall is a little like wandering into a local joint on a tucked-away backstreet in Rome. The menu is short and changes daily; those in the know keep a special eye out for their popular pizzetta mini pizzas.

Whether you're in the mood for a classic Italian pizza Margherita or Diavola, or would rather go for a steak and bearnaise topping, you'll find all this and more at Pizzeria Mums in Mölndal. They serve piping-hot pizzas direct from their wood-fired oven at lunch and dinner. Just as in Naples, top-quality ingredients take centre stage.

You'll find pizzas of all kinds and sizes at the Food Bar inside the Scandic Göteborg Central. There are popular classic pizzas, as well as more modern options. Are you peckish, hungry or starving? There are pizzas for both vegetarians and meat-eaters and pizzas can be ordered as half, whole or double portions. The drinks menu includes cocktails, beer, wine and non-alcoholic options. Drop-in is the name of the game at Food Bar, and it's easy to find your own favourite spot in the trendy space with its well-considered design and colour choices.

This little Italian is slightly tucked away, but still in the heart of the Linné neighbourhood. Authentic Italian food is the name of the game here, with food made according to recipes that have been in the Italian owners' families for generations. Their pizzas are ultra thin, baked in a wood-fired oven and made using top-quality ingredients.

Accompany your pizza with a really good beer; the range of beers here is one of the best in Gothenburg. Beerista has a classic gastropub feel and pizza-wise they serve both classic pizzas as well as more unexpected toppings, such as chicken with barbeque sauce. The idea is to serve good pub grub in laid-back surroundings, just like in an English gastropub. 

Pizza galore with every imaginable topping, baked with or without sourdough, and with sides such as mozzarella sticks, hot wings and fries, are the order of the day at Pizzeria Gambero. There's something here to suit all tastes, and you can also top up your pizza with a double base, extra toppings and even more cheese.

Moreno is the Italian word for "dark", and refers to the fact that the pizzas here are baked a little longer in a smoky, extra-hot wood oven, to get a really crispy base and flavours that are highlighted by the smokiness. Moreno is housed in a former cinema building, and with no less than 1,560 seats, it's said to be the world's largest pizzeria.

This laid-back trattoria began delivering authentic Italian flavours to Gothenburg more than 20 years ago. Apparently they were the first in the city to start using mozzarella on their pizzas. If you still have room after your pizza, tiramisu is always a good way to round off your dinner.

Da Matteo isn't just known for its own-roasted, award-winning coffee, sourdough bakery or stylish interiors. You can also come here to enjoy a slice of pizza and a refreshing lemonade in the sunshine.

Bennys serves pizza just like in New York: in large slices with crisp edges and a thin base. Pizzas are also topped with parmesan and olive oil just before serving. Pair your food with refreshing drinks and beers on tap; the atmosphere is often enlivened with DJs and quiz nights.

Regulars and new visitors alike come to Il Gambero at Storgatan 11 for the great food as well as the unpretentious atmosphere. The kitchen serves up Italian home cooking using fresh ingredients cooked with, according to the owners, plenty of temperament and passion.

This restaurant is as close to the edge of the harbour as you can get, with fantastic views over the entrance to Gothenburg harbour. The kitchen works with flavours from all over Italy and their pizzas are generously topped and smell delicious when served straight from the oven.
