Brigade Pizzeria Napolitaine brings wood-fired Neapolitan pizza to downtown Montreal with a blend of casual atmosphere and quality. This Stanley Street spot, opened in 2014 by Jean-Daniel Nadeau and Grace Yeh, serves both classic pizzas and a fully customizable “design-your-own” option. With a focus on Neapolitan tradition, the pizzas are cooked at a fiery 900°F in Marra Forni ovens imported from Italy, producing that signature thin, blistered crust in under 90 seconds.

The industrial-chic interior features a long counter where patrons can watch the “brigadiers” shape dough and add toppings. Popular pizzas like Prosciutto and Arugula or Brooklyn with sesame seeds satisfy a wide range of tastes, and unique options like La Burrata (with fior di latte and stracciatella) offer even more variety. Beyond pizza, Brigade also offers fresh pasta, panuozzo sandwiches, salads, and garlic bites.
