Who We Are
-
At Urban Fire, we believe great pizza starts with doing the simple things exceptionally well.
From carefully selected ingredients to properly fermented dough, every decision is made with quality in mind. We take pride in hand-stretching each pizza, cooking it in our wood fired oven and serving food that we would be proud to share with family and friends.
We are constantly learning, refining and improving, but our goal remains the same — to create great pizza and a great experience for every customer who visits us.
-
Quality, consistency and community are at the heart of everything we do.
We believe that great food begins with great ingredients, honest preparation and attention to detail. Every pizza leaving our oven should meet the same standard, whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth.
As a local independent business, we are proud to be part of the Oranmore community and grateful for the support we have received since opening. We value good food, hard work and genuine hospitality, and we aim to reflect those values in everything we do.

Urban Fire was founded by Gearóid & Mikey in Oranmore in 2020, with one goal — to make seriously good wood-fired pizza in Galway, using great dough, quality ingredients and a proper wood-fired oven.
Our plans were just beginning to take shape when COVID brought everything to a halt. Instead of shelving the idea, we used the time to learn, experiment and perfect what would become Urban Fire — studying dough fermentation, sourcing quality ingredients and developing the pizzas we wanted to serve.
When restrictions finally eased, Urban Fire opened in the beer garden at Glynn's Bar in Oranmore, and what had started as an idea became a reality.
Since then, we've grown from a small local pizza setup into one of Oranmore's favourite spots for Neapolitan-style, wood-fired pizza, while keeping the same approach we started with: freshly made dough, carefully chosen ingredients and pizzas cooked with fire.
We're proud to be an independently owned Galway business, with Oranmore at the heart of what we do.

how did we do?
At Urban Fire, we believe great pizza starts long before it reaches the oven.
Our dough is made using Caputo 00 flour and slowly fermented for between 48 and 72 hours. This longer fermentation develops flavour, improves texture and helps create the light, airy crust that our pizzas are known for.
We use a blend of premium San Marzano DOP tomatoes for our sauce, combined with carefully selected ingredients that we believe deliver the very best flavour.
Our pizzas are cooked in a traditional wood fired oven at temperatures approaching 500°C, creating the distinctive crust, texture and flavour that only a wood fired oven can produce.
We are proud to work with some of Ireland's finest producers and suppliers, including:
• Toons Bridge Dairy, Cork
• Sabanero, Galway
• Brady Family, Athenry, Co. Galway
• Gubbeen Farmhouse Products, Cork
We use 24-month aged Parmigiano Reggiano, premium extra virgin olive oil, house-made pesto and our own candied jalapeños to ensure every pizza is packed with flavour.
Every ingredient is chosen for a reason. From the flour and tomatoes to the cheese and toppings, our focus is simple — quality ingredients, carefully prepared, to create great pizza.
