Learn the secrets behind a classic New York tradition: handmade pizza. At this hands-on private workshop, you’ll discover how to mix and stretch dough, make sauce, and choose the right toppings for your perfect pie. 

 

The experience opens with a flight of pizzas paired with drinks to spark inspiration and set the tone. Next, learn how to craft your personalized pies with guidance from seasoned experts who break down the process in a fun, approachable way.

 

The energy picks up as we top and bake our pies. Will you go classic with the margherita or try a twist with balsamic reduction or Calabrian chili? Maybe indulge your sweet tooth (blueberries with crushed caramel cookies, perhaps)? It’s chef’s choice — and you’re the chef! Everyone gets to make two pies.

 

The highlight, of course, is enjoying your pizza when it comes out fresh from the oven. Accompanying drinks include specialty sodas, seltzers, beer, wine, and cocktail spritzes. A $150 beverage credit starts the party, and you decide how far to take it.

 

Looking for a special theme? Just let us know. We can break out the disco ball, celebrate a birthday or anniversary, and more.

 

Expect plenty to eat, plenty to take home, and skills you can use long after the night ends. It’s the ultimate New York pizza party.

Testimonials

It was nice to have that unique experience in the city beyond the stuff that everybody else does. The time flew by. The teacher was able to answer all our questions. I hope we can make the trip out to do it again.
— Samuel
Our group made 28 pizzas in 4 hours, and we had so much fun making up pizza combos and trying different variations. And now we know how to make delicious pizza at home from scratch!
— Duane
A perfect experience for colleagues, clients, or even a big group of friends. Ricky, Rufus, and Shah were incredible hosts who taught us every step of making great pizza.
— Chris
The guys did an amazing job. The content was fantastic, very well-structured, and just a lot of fun. What can I do now? Make a pizza that tastes like how I imagine a New York City pizza should taste.

FAQs

When will my booking be confirmed?

This private experience is available on request. After you complete your booking online, we’ll confirm availability with our local team. You’ll receive an email within 24 hours either confirming your booking or letting you know if that date is unavailable. If we’re unable to proceed with your reservation, you’ll receive a full refund.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Yes, we offer vegetarian and vegan pizzas, including vegan mozzarella, and we have pre-made gluten-free crusts if someone in your group has a gluten sensitivity (as long as they’re OK being in a kitchen with traditional flour). However, we’ll be baking in ovens that have had nuts, wheat, eggs, and dairy in them, so we can’t guarantee food allergens won’t be transferred through accidental cross-contact.

Is this experience good for kids?

Yes! Families love this pizza workshop. This is a real kitchen, so please be careful of little ones. Young children (ages 0-3) who don’t participate in the class don’t count toward the group size. If you’re interested, you can also book a kids’ party for ages 10 and up with at least two adults attending.

Do you do anything special for birthdays?

Yes, we have a variety of dessert pizzas, and birthday candles are available upon request!

What is the cancellation policy?

Because this experience is carefully arranged in advance, bookings are nonrefundable and cannot be rescheduled.

Is this experience accessible?

Please contact us if you have any accessibility requirements, and we will do our best to accommodate.

Is this experience run by ExperienceFirst?

No, it’s run by one of our trusted and vetted partners in New York.
