By Camelot Castle Hotel team · Published 18 September 2024

If you’re a pizza lover in Cornwall, there’s a new destination that should top your list: Camelot Castle. Sitting atop of Tintagel cliffs, this iconic castle isn’t just steeped in Arthurian legend – it’s also home to some of the most mouth-watering pizzas in the region. Whether you’re a local or a traveller, Pizza at the Castle promises to be an experience that pairs unforgettable views with unbeatable flavours.

So, what makes Camelot Castle the ultimate pizza spot? Let’s take a culinary peek through their menu, which has something for everyone—whether you’re a die-hard traditionalist or craving something a little more adventurous.

The Margherita: A Classic Worthy of a King

We begin with the Margherita, what else. A perfect balance of Italian tomato sauce, creamy mozzarella, and fragrant basil—it’s a classic, just like the legends of King Arthur. Simplicity reigns supreme here, allowing the ingredients to shine. One bite, and you’ll understand why this pizza has become a staple in kitchens worldwide.

Pepperoni: A Knight’s Favourite

For those who like their pizza with a bit of bite, the Pepperoni at Camelot Castle is a must-try. Topped with perfectly crisped slices of slightly spicy pepperoni, this pizza delivers that bold, rich flavour that pairs so well with a cold drink. Whether you’re refuelling after a cliffside hike or settling in for a cosy evening in the castle’s dining room, the Pepperoni pizza is a hearty choice that satisfies with every bite.

Vegetariana: A Garden Delight

Looking for something fresh and vibrant? The Vegetariana pizza is a garden party on a plate. With its colourful medley of sliced olives, mushrooms, artichokes, sun dried tomatoes and mozzarella this pizza is a celebration of local produce. It’s perfect for vegetarians, but we guarantee even the most devoted carnivore will appreciate this flavour-packed option.

Hawaiian: A Pizza Adventure

Now, let’s talk about a pizza that stirs debate across the land—the Hawaiian. Pineapple on pizza may be a polarising topic, but here at Camelot Castle, we say embrace the adventure! The tangy sweetness of pineapple paired with prosciutto creates a balance fit for a king. And with the Cornish Sea breeze in the air, the tropical notes feel right at home. Are you ready to defend the Hawaiian honour at the round table?

Prosciutto & Rocket: For the Refined Palate

If you’re in the mood for something sophisticated, the Prosciutto & Rocket pizza offers a taste of Italy right here in Cornwall. Delicate slices of prosciutto are draped over a base of rich tomato sauce and mozzarella, finished off with peppery arugula (rocket). This pizza is all about balance – each bite delivers a combination of salty prosciutto and fresh greens that’s simply divine. It’s the perfect pizza to enjoy as you sip on a glass of fine wine, with the waves crashing below.

Neapolitana: A Taste of Naples

Finally, we journey to the birthplace of pizza itself with the Neapolitana. Anchovy lovers, this one’s for you! Topped with anchovies, capers and mozzarella, this pizza bursts with bold, briny flavours that will transport your taste buds straight to the sun-drenched streets of Naples. The thin, crispy crust of the Neapolitana is just the right vessel for this punchy, flavourful combination. It’s a true Italian masterpiece – Arthurian legend meets the streets of Naples!

Pizza, Views, and Legends All in One Place

What sets Camelot Castle apart isn’t just the quality of the pizzas – it’s the entire experience. Imagine enjoying your freshly baked pizza with a backdrop of sweeping sea views, dramatic cliffs and a touch of myth and magic. The historic setting makes your meal feel like a feast in a royal dining hall, while the relaxed atmosphere ensures you can enjoy every bite with friends and family.
