With over 100 years of coal fired brick-oven pizza-making traditions, we continue to ensure that future generations are able to experience our distinctive and truly authentic pizza. Why coal-fired brick ovens? The tantalizing aroma of pizza and calzones baked to perfection in our signature coal burning oven offers a unique flavor and a crisp crust that is just not possible from gas, convection or wood burning ovens. Our fresh ingredients, handmade mozzarella, 'secret recipe' dough and pizza sauce make us the most award-winning pizzeria in the United States. It is our passion for pizza that has made us a "must have" for pizza lovers and celebrities alike, including Frank Sinatra and former NYC Mayor, Rudy Guiliani. Welcome to Grimaldi's Pizzeria, we are honored to have you as our guest!

Now in our 27th year, Flatbread Company Inc. employs over 400 passionate team members with hearths in New England and Hawaii. We believe in quality and integrity of ingredients, food and drink - clean food without unwanted chemicals and pesticides. The history of flatbread goes back at least 5000 years when men and women first began “baking” in enclosed earthen mounds. The simple leap from an open fire to a more controlled heating process expanded the culinary possibilities for all mankind. We rolled into the picture in 1998, going back in order to move forward. Since then, the Flatbread Company has been introducing people to the magic of earth and fire, and how that combination can produce incredible tasting pizza. Beginning in Amesbury, Massachusetts in the summer of 1998, our mission of providing both guests and employees a place to “renew their spirit”, has never wavered. The story of Flatbread is a story of the people that work here and the guests that support it. Real food, served by real people in a real environment. Back in 1998, there were hardly any distributors of organic food and the locally produced foods were in their infancy, just like us. So the history of the flatbread is also intertwined with the local farms and local producers, like Cider Hill Farm in Amesbury MA, Valley View Farm (Goat Cheese) in Topsfield MA, George’s Hemlock Hollow Farm (Maple Syrup) in Kensington NH, Barbara’s Brownies from Amesbury MA (now Hampton, NH)… Together they produced and we prepared, served and then, most importantly, the local community supported us. This rather simple sounding partnership between Flatbread, organic food, local farms, local producers, and the local community has been successfully transplanted to other locations. Each time we build our ovens in new locations, it is our mission to become an integral part of the fabric of that community through our sustained actions.
