Pizza Priksa

In Špansko, not far from Antunović Hotel, the well-known landmark of the western part of the city, some of the best pizzas in the city are prepared and enjoyed in a hard-to-find, laid-back atmosphere. Pizza Priksa is the first mobile pizza house with a wood-fired oven in Croatia, whose colourful food truck located next to the karting centre has become a favourite gathering place for all fans of speed, pizza, beer and relaxed fun. The authors of this innovative project are friends Marin and Bojan, whose desire was to open a place in their neighbourhood where people would be happy to come and enjoy quality food.

Their passion for pizza led to a unique concept – a pizzeria on wheels that offers about 15 pizzas with classic, but also innovative toppings. They call it ‘grandma’s Napoletana’ – perhaps because it is some kind of a hybrid between the Neapolitan-style pizza prepared according to strict rules and the more domestic one that is better known to Zagrebians. Pizzas stand out for their interesting names, such as Krklecova, Batušićeva and Pupačićeva, which are actually the names of the streets in the owners’ beloved neighbourhood, but also for fresh ingredients coming from Croatian family farms and baking in a real wood-fired oven, which gives them an irreplaceable aroma and texture.

We tasted the excellent Lemon pizza, rich in mozzarella and parmesan, pesto and garlic, whose richness was perfectly cut by lemon juice, and the excellent house-speciality Priksa pizza, with spinach and walnuts, aromatic and crispy. We were more than happy to be able to wash down the pizzas with some of Zagreb's craft beers from the short drink menu, which also includes a selection of juices and coffees. Whether you are a Zagreb resident or just visiting, this place offers an authentic street food experience that you should not miss.
