About Us

Located in the heart of historic Redcliffe, Pizzas has been a beloved gathering place in St. John’s for years, welcoming both locals and visitors with great food and an easy-going atmosphere. What began with just four pizza varieties, a salad, and a baked potato has grown into a diverse menu featuring delicious favourites, local specialties, bistro-style dishes, and daily specials.

Whether you’re joining us for lunch, dinner, or a casual meet-up, Pizzas is all about good food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere. It’s a place where people come together, stay awhile, and enjoy a taste of Antigua — truly capturing the spirit of “a wicked taste in a groovy place.”

Pizzas is part of the Big Banana Group, a family-owned hospitality group founded by siblings Jeff Hadeed and Bernadette Sherman. Alongside Pizzas, the group is home to The Larder, MAIA, and Charr’d — four distinctive dining destinations united by a passion for hospitality, great food, and memorable experiences across Antigua.

Pizzas in Paradise


Set in historic Redcliffe, Pizzas has long been Antigua’s favourite meeting spot in the capital of St. John’s. Pizzas started with a very small menu of just 4 varieties of pizza, one salad and a baked potato. Today, the menu has expanded to include a wide array of options and daily specials.

At one point in its history, the restaurant briefly relocated to a neighbouring building on Redcliffe Street. However, due to popular demand, it returned to its original location, the Rum Warehouse in Redcliffe Quay.

Pizzas continues to attract locals and tourists, offering a selection of local specialties and bistro-style dishes for lunch, dinner, or a casual hangout. A visit to “Pizzas” is a must in Antigua; our delicious food, excellent service, and welcoming atmosphere are the essence of how we are described locally – “a wicked taste in a groovy place”.

big banana airside + landside

Our renowned airport restaurant, established in 1994, relocated in 2017 to coincide with the opening of the new VC Bird International Airport. The new terminal sparked a fresh approach and a new design concept for Big Banana. Drawing inspiration from Italian architects and custom cabinetry builders, Cierresse, the Big Banana team embraced a new vision.

Since its launch in Spring 2017, our Big Banana Airside spot at the western terminal end offers all the signature Big Banana delights right at your fingertips before your flight. Featuring a diverse menu including our popular fresh salads, sandwiches, famous pizza, and a splendid sushi bar with delectable rolls and sashimi, there’s something for everyone.

For those not traveling and in need of a quick snack, our kiosk located landside downstairs near the arrivals exit is always ready to serve up a treat or a drink.
