Fireworks Pizza

September 23, 2007
Located in downtown Leesburg, right next to Tuscarora Grill and, incidentally, under the same ownership. They specialize in wood-fired pizza, and the results are very good. Interesting combinations of ingredients (including some organic) on their specialty pizzas such as granny smith apples, lamb sausage, chorizo, and a variety of cheeses make them must-try’s. They are complimented by a small but by no means poor selection. About 8 taps and 40 bottles of American macros and (mostly Belgian) imports, ranging from DFH, Victory, Allagash, Southampton, Flying Dog, Stone, etc. On my last visit they had Saison Dupont on draft, and bottles of Delirium, Ommegang, LaChouffe, and Maredsous. The service is very friendly, if a little slow. Plain looking interior, with lot’s of pictures of train related stuff (it’s built on an old train depot), and they have an outdoor seating area. Highly recommended if you are in the Northern Virginia area.
