Black Sand Pizzeria & Bistro is a restaurant at 1 Tasman Parade, on the beachfront at Ōakura, just south-west of New Plymouth in Taranaki. Its website describes the offer as authentic Neapolitan pizza combined with a fresh, seasonal and modern bistro menu.
The pizzas are wood-fired and made from flour, water, salt, yeast and time. The website states the pizzeria is certified by the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana (AVPN). The drinks list features organic and natural wines from small New Zealand and Australian producers, along with local craft beer. Gluten-friendly pizzas are available on Sundays only. A takeaway menu and vouchers (dine-in or takeaway) are offered.
The restaurant opens Wednesday to Sunday, 5pm to 9pm. Bookings are recommended, especially in summer. Contact is by phone on 06 752 7806 or email at hello@blacksandpizzeria.co.nz.
The website says the space can accommodate small weddings, corporate functions and special occasions. All food and beverages must be supplied by the restaurant. Capacity figures are not published in the material reviewed, so group organisers should confirm numbers directly.
