Fornino Pier 6 is a pizza restaurant in Brooklyn Bridge Park, with rooftop and patio seating near the park’s volleyball courts. The draw is the combination of wood-fired pizza and views across the water to the Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn Bridge. Start with fried smashed potatoes with truffle aioli, then choose a pie such as Corn & Spicy Honey or Calabrese. Beer, cocktails and a Watermelon Frozen Drink round out the menu. Book ahead if you want a rooftop seat, especially when the restaurant is busy.
Pizza beside the water
Fornino Pier 6 sits on Pier 6 in Brooklyn Bridge Park, close to the park’s volleyball courts. The setting shapes the meal: from rooftop seating, you can look across the water toward the Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn Bridge, with the courts in view below. There is also indoor seating and an adjacent patio, so you can choose a different vantage point if the rooftop is full.
The restaurant serves Neapolitan-style pizza from a wood-fired oven. The Corn & Spicy Honey pie pairs corn with spicy honey. The Calabrese combines tomato, mozzarella, spicy soppressata, parmesan and oregano. A Spinach pie is also listed, with mixed mushrooms, caciocavallo, mozzarella, pecorino and white truffle oil.
What to order
Fried smashed potatoes with truffle aioli make a shareable start. Anna Rosa’s Meatballs and salads are other ways to begin before ordering pizza. The Watermelon Frozen Drink is a fruity choice for warm weather; beer, wine, sangria and cocktails are also available.
If you’re dining with a group, the pizzas and small plates make it easy to order a mix for the table. The menu also includes options such as a chicken sandwich, though the available details do not specify its ingredients.
Choosing a seat
The rooftop is the main choice for a meal with skyline views, while the patio puts you closer to the park. The nearby volleyball courts add activity to the scene; the setting is casual rather than a quiet dining room. Reservations are recommended for rooftop seating, and busy periods can bring delays in service. If you prefer a calmer meal, plan around peak times.
