Foghorn Brewery

You might know Foghorn Brewery for its craft beer, but did you know the brewpub does a fantastic pizza too?

In Forno

In Forno's menu is staggering in size, but don't let that deter you. You can't go wrong with a classic like the margherita with tomato pulp, fior di latte, parmesan and basil (picked fresh from the garden), or the gorgonzola dolce pizza with gorgonzola dolce cream, fior di latte, leg ham, mushrooms, and pistachio cream for something a bit different.
