Good pizza starts with good ingredients. Great pizza starts with the very best. 🍕🧀

That’s why we’re proud to be working with Belfast’s own Mike’s Fancy Cheese, bringing their award-winning artisan cheeses straight from Little Donegall Street to The Boxing Hare.

These guys have spent over a decade making and championing incredible Irish cheese, including their award-winning Young Buck — and now we’re putting that expertise to very good use on our pizzas.

Proper dough. Proper cheese. Proper Belfast produce.

Simple ingredients. Proper flavour. A cracking Pizza! 🍕🔥

The Fungazi has quickly become one of our best-selling pies, and it’s easy to see why.

Confit garlic oil, passata base, mozzarella, Salami Milano, balsamic roasted mushrooms and olives — nothing overcomplicated, just beautiful ingredients that work ridiculously well together.

Into the oven, blistered to perfection and straight to the table - beside a cold pint!

For more than a decade, we've been serving authentic Neapolitan pizza from the beer garden of the iconic Sunflower Bar.

From day one, the vision has been simple: proper Neapolitan pizza, made with exceptional ingredients, time-honoured techniques, and a real respect for the craft.

Pair that with one of Belfast's best pubs, an unbeatable selection of pints, and a beer garden that's full of character, and you've got a combination that's hard to beat.

Now, with our newly refurbished kitchen and space, we've taken things up another level. Same passion. Even better experience.

Come down, grab a pint, order a pizza, have the craic!

The Marinara is one of the original Neapolitan pizzas and has been doing its thing for centuries. No cheese. Just beautiful passata tomatoes, garlic, oregano, extra virgin olive oil and a beautifully blistered wood-fired base.

It's simple, bold, and proof that incredible ingredients don't need much dressing up.

Whether you're a Neapolitan pizza purist or just fancy trying something different, the Marinara deserves a spot on your table.

See you at the oven. 🍅🇮🇹

The weather has been absolutely cracking over the past couple of weeks... and this is exactly why we brought our new ice cream menu to The Boxing Hare. ☀️🍦

There's not much better than finishing off a proper wood-fired pizza with proper ice cream.

That's why we've teamed up with Drayne's Farm Ice Cream, a family-run producer from Lisburn that's been dedicated to great dairy since 1932. For over 90 years they've been producing fresh milk, cream and ice cream on the family farm, with everything bottled and made just a short journey from field to production. That commitment to quality shines through in every scoop.

Local ingredients, proper flavour, and the perfect way to round off your meal.

Pop in, grab a pizza, and save room for dessert.

Great pizza starts long before it ever sees the oven.

Every batch of our signature dough is left to proof for 48 hours. It's not the quickest way to do it, but after more than a decade of making pizza, we've learned that the longer the proof, the better the dough.

That extra time develops a deeper flavour, a lighter texture and the perfect crust. In fact, the dough alone is one of the biggest reasons our pizzas taste the way they do.

Good pizza can't be rushed. From the dough to the toppings and into the oven, every step plays its part.

It's all about taking the time to get it right. Every single pizza.

Weekend plans?

We've got them sorted.

The dough's proofing, the oven's fired up, and the pints are sitting ice cold waiting for you.

Whether it's your usual or something from the new menu, there's no better place to settle in, catch up with your mates and let us do the cooking.

We'll see you this weekend. 🍕🍺
