Our Story

The Pies

Family Roots, Neapolitan Fire

Bowie Pizza was born in a family kitchen and shaped by the fires of Italy. Every pie we make carries that journey in its crust.

What our guests are saying

The place is spacious and clean. The menu is simple and streamlined. The service was fast and courteous. The mushroom & ricotta pizza was delicious! All of the ingredients tasted fresh and of high quality. The ricotta was so creamy, it melted in my mouth. The best neapolitan pizza I’ve had in Gainesville by far.

Was recently in town while traveling and stopped in for dinner. The gentleman behind the counter was very friendly and helpful in suggesting some pizzas. We ordered 2 margarita pizzas and they were absolutely delicious! They were cooked perfectly and the sauce and toppings were so flavorful and fresh. They were so good we ordered a pepperoni pizza to go and snacked on it later that night. Even reheated the pizza was amazing.

This is the pizza place I’ve been searching for here in Gainesville! This is the closest thing I’ve been able to find to the pizza dough/crust I’ve eaten in Rome and other regions of Italy. Delicious food, good prices, fast service, friendly staff. Really worth a try. I’m adding this to my list of places to bring out-of-towners.
