Where to grab gourmet pizza in Ascoli 

Ascoli Piceno is home to not one but two gambero rosso award-winning pizzerias.

Pro-tip:  Although not AIC certified by Italy’s National Celiac Organization, La Scaletta is still able to provide pizza in Ascoli for gluten-intolerant.  Please note it is recommended that you always call in advance to ensure that at the time of your visit the pizzeria is able to accommodate your allergies.
