Est. October 10, 2012
Since opening in 2012 on the corner of Ventnor & Essex, Bocca has brought coal-fired Italian dining to the heart of Margate. Guests can settle into the casual pizzeria, dining room, or bar & lounge and order from the same full Bocca menu wherever they sit. At the center of it all is Bocca's 6,500-pound Earth Stone coal oven, firing above 900 degrees for the crisp char, old-world flavor, and warmth the restaurant is known for.

The Earth Stone coal oven, all 6,500 pounds of it
The Earth Stone oven
Made entirely of Earth Stone and weighing 6,500 pounds, Bocca's coal-fired oven runs past 900 degrees — the old-world flavor and crisp, charred crust do the rest.
The shore tested it early
The Bocca story
One roof. Three rooms. One point of view.
Bocca opened its doors on October 10, 2012, in the heart of Margate City.
You'll find it on the corner of Ventnor and Essex Avenues, three blocks from the beach.
One roof, three rooms: a casual modern pizzeria, a formal dining room, and an intimate bar & lounge.
Order anything you want, anywhere you want — the full menu follows you to any seat in the house.
The Earth Stone coal-fired oven weighs 6,500 pounds and runs past 900 degrees.
That oven is the whole point: old-world flavor and a crisp, charred crust you can't fake.
