Maria Gianna

Ouseburn's Italian deli doing 72-hour sourdough pizza by the slice.

A sister venue to The Tower in Ouseburn, Maria Gianna is a proper Italian deli doing 72-hour sourdough pizza by the slice alongside pasta, coffee and gelato.

It’s low-key — order at the counter, grab a seat outside if the weather allows — but the food punches above its casual setup.

The menu rotates regularly, so it’s worth checking what’s on before you go, but if ricotta and garlic is on the board, order it.

Beyond pizza, the arancini and tiramisu are both worth trying.
