The most westerly pizza restaurant in Scotland!

Scotland is all about extremes. Highest mountain? Check. Deepest loch? Check. Most westerly pizza? Check! Situated on the stunning island of Islay is Peatzeria, the most westerly pizza restaurant in Scotland. To get to this remarkable award-winning restaurant, you need to go on a bit of an adventure. Voyage on a ferry or take a small plane to the island’s airport in the Inner Hebrides and soon you’ll be rewarded with stunning pizza using local, seasonal ingredients. Fortunately, the journey is worth it.

Our restaurant boasts an incredibly experienced and knowledgeable chef who works alongside an equally well-versed front-of-house team. But it doesn’t stop there! They say sight has a huge impact on how food tastes. So imagine chomping into a slice of one of our special pizzas topped with smoked Argyle mussels staring over at a view which reaches across Loch Indaal towards the western edges of Islay. And after that? It’s just the Atlantic which separates us from Canada. Only true explorers will get to enjoy our sizzling pizzas and jaw-dropping views.

So…fancy a bite?

Our location marks us out as not just on the edge of Scotland’s beautiful islands, but on the forefront of imaginative and sustainable pizza toppings.

Or, if you really want a taste of the island like never before, try our pizza dish with fresh Islay scallops alongside Parma ham with onion and garlic. You could even push the boat out and enjoy a pizza topped with the freshest local lobster. Peatzeria is perfection for seafood lovers, vegetarians and those wishing to try our gluten free pizzas.
