Our Mission

Strictly Sourdough Notoriously Neapolitan

We honour the craft. We break the mould. We serve pizza that stirs the soul.

About Us
We’re not your average pizza joint. Garden Grove is a fiercely independent Neapolitan pizzeria born from fire, flour, and freedom

Everything here is done with purpose from our hand made ancient grain sourdough smuggled in from Naples, to the choice of music and the design of our pizzeria. We’ve been making pizzas since 2012, starting from the streets of Brighton with an oven that we built on wheels, to touring festivals and pop ups across Europe. Now, we are permanently based in South East Asia as we continue to make real Neapolitan pizza accessible to the world.

Our pizzas follow strict Neapolitan tradition, but with our own rebellious edge. We ferment our dough the slow way. We bring our family harvested oregano in from the Pelion mountains of Greece. We work directly with local organic farmers in Northern Thailand. We don’t just import the best DOP charcuterie and dairy from Italy  we search for them obsessively, visiting farms and learning about our producer’s heritage. And we do it with no shortcuts, no compromises. Just unapologetic Neapolitan pizza, served in a space built from the soul.

We are certified by AVPN (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana) – the guardians of true Neapolitan pizza. But we’re not here to be polite imitators. Garden Grove takes the fire of Naples and drives it through punk soul, the road years as travelling pizzaioli, through to present day Chiang Mai.

Our Story
from street smoke to sourdough - a story written in fire and soul

For over a decade, we travelled across the UK and Europe, slapping pizzas for the masses, rain or shine.

Our Dough
ancient grains from Naples

Our dough doesn’t come from a shelf. It’s rebellion in 4 ingredients: flour, water, salt and wild instinct.

Our Vision
Where passion meets flavor. Savor every moment. Discover the heart of our kitchen.

At Bouffe, we imagine a space where every sip tells a story and every visit feels like coming home. Our dream is to build a café culture that values care, creativity, and community. With each cup, we hope to inspire warmth, spark curiosity, and invite people into a world where coffee is more than a drink — it’s a shared experience. 

Our goal is to be more than a coffee shop — a welcoming space where you can unwind, enjoy remarkable coffee, and connect with others in a meaningful way.

Innovation in every step...

Innovation at its core, we embrace groundbreaking ideas, from sourcing to brewing, to create a coffee experience that pushes boundaries.
