A slice of Naples on Shore Road

Neapolitan pizza has quietly become one of the most exciting things happening in Ogunquit dining, and at Crew it's now the star of the show.

In January 2025, Crew completely reimagined its pizza program and brought in a pizza chef from Naples, Italy to overhaul everything from the dough to the bake. He trained the team on traditional techniques, from mixing and proofing to hand-stretching that signature soft, airy crust with just the right chew. Today, guests at 8 Shore Road can bite into a true Neapolitan-style pie just steps from Ogunquit Beach and the Marginal Way.

What makes Crew's pizza different

Neapolitan pizza is all about simplicity, quality, and heat: a thin, tender crust, minimal toppings, and serious temperature. At Crew, the dough is made in-house using the methods passed down from the Naples chef, then baked in a new oven that reaches 930 degrees, giving each pie a light char and soft center without ever drying it out. The result is that classic leopard-spotting on the crust and a pie that's meant to be eaten hot, shared at the table, and enjoyed with a cold drink or a glass of wine while the town buzzes just outside Crew's wall of windows.

Imported ingredients, local vibe

To match the technique, Crew now imports key ingredients directly from Italy, so the tomatoes, flour, and cheese live up to the style of the dough. Those Italian flavors meet Ogunquit Coastal Vibes in the dining room, where live music, big windows, and a friendly bar make it as easy to linger over a Margherita as it is to grab a quick pie before a show across the street. Whether you're coming off the beach, catching a game on TV, or meeting friends for late-night snacks, pizza fits seamlessly into the all-day energy Crew is known for.

When to make it a pizza night

Because Crew is open year-round with breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late-night options, pizza can be your move at almost any time of day. Split a couple of pies with oysters before heading out on a summer evening, or cozy up with a Neapolitan pie and a cocktail while live music kicks off on the weekend. For locals and seasonal workers, it's become an easy go-to: order your favorite toppings on that Neapolitan base, watch the town go by from the corner of Shore Road and Beach Street, and call it your new pizza ritual.

How to try it

Crew is located at 8 Shore Road in the heart of Ogunquit, just a short walk from the beach and the Marginal Way. Check the current menu and hours on the Crew Ogunquit website or Toast ordering page, then plan your next visit around the pizza—whether that's a Margherita to share at the bar, a loaded pie before a night out, or a table full of Neapolitan pizzas for the whole crew. Once you've had that 930-degree crust, "pizza in Ogunquit" starts to mean one thing: meeting your crew at Crew for a slice of Naples on the coast of Maine.
