Passionate about pizza since 1925! Theres not a lot of restaurants that can say they’ve been in business for nearly 100 years, winning accolades such as "best pizza in the country" (NO BIG DEAL), with a cult-like following, and Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana in New Haven, Connecticut is it. The original coal-fired New Haven-style apizza approach is simple - the best ingredients, the best dough every time. It's about more than the pies though (and the world famous white clam pie...), it's about the family, workers-who-are-family, customers-who-are-family, dogs-who-are-family...the love and legacy and commitment to community at large is what sets Pepes apart. Watch Brad as he puts on his apron, grabs a bite with the family, and learns how to make arguably the most legendary pizza...
Thanks to Brad's pals and Local Legends partner Decked! 100% made in the USA. Get DECKED. Get after it!

That was beautiful. Reminds me of the old Italian neighborhood in Chicago that I grew up in called Bridgeport on the south side. This encapsulates the true Italian American hustle and work ethic, but also the caring and understanding ways of showing people respect with good product that you put out. This was so sweet.

Hahahahaha Brad, that pizza making part was soooo fuckin chaotic and hilarious!! Thank you for keepin shit real and not editing out stuff like that to try be perfect. I've watched so many RU-vid shows, documentaries, etc about Frank Pepe's pizza and it's always worth it, it's always wholesome, you can always feel the heart, respect, tradition, etc through how they speak about him and the family and the business. Absolutely a local legend. Thanks for another amazing video 😊

Wow I have never heard of Frank Pepe’s before this, but after seeing how they cook pizza, how well they treat their staff, and how long people work for them, makes me want to try this place today!! You know it’s a good pizza joint when they have employees working over 40 years and still don’t want to retire! Many businesses could learn a thing or 2 from Frank Pepe’s.

I was traveling through from RI to PA and decided to stop at Frank Pepe's because who doesn't like pizza...and let me say hands down this was the best I ever had. That's also considering I went on a pizza tour through NYC, the New Haven style is my personal favorite with Pepe's being king

I'm lucky enough to work in New Haven and live in Fairfield County. This pizza is unlike any other. People will always talk but I feel once they taste it, they will know! That dough is special. I heard one time it's something with our tap water too. May be rumors or not even a thing but I'm not an expert!

Definitely not the tap water, it's about the technique. I'm the dough specialist for a pizza place (One Bite Challenge score: 8.7) and was just up in New York at the festival last month as one of the restaurants selected the to participate in the festival. We are located 1300mi from NYC and we're in the top 25 Dave has reviewed around the world.

One of the few things I miss when I left the CT shoreline for Colorado: New Haven pizza, especially white clam pizza, and all the clam shacks along Rt. 1. Oh, and Louie's Lunch for hamburger fun once in a while. After watching the whole thing, I'm a little surprised the "rivalry" between Pepe's and Sally's Apizza wasn't mentioned.

Topping list includes clams shrimp and broccoli but they draw the line at pineapple lol. Bacon onion and pineapple is my favorite combo. If you don't think that you like pineapple on your pizza I challenge you to try it. Maybe add some jalapenos if you like a little heat.

Any idea what the hydration was on that dough? Trying to figure out if its an extra wet dough or if it was a little over proofed that day. Or maybe they build and portion same day, then let it rest in the boxes over night? Just seemed extra relaxed and a little difficult to work.

One of my earliest memories was going to Frank's and eating that clam pie. My father was a big time regular before we moved down to Tennessee - if I were smarter I'd have had one shipped down before he passed. Haven't been back in about 15 years but I would do so much to have a chance to somehow franchise something down here and blow some minds - no one takes me seriously when I say New Haven pizza is king.
