KnockRoma Pizza Pop Up
It started as a bit of fun in a garden in Knockrome, serving pizza to neighbours. Then, when there was no eating out available in the winter 2024, the islanders started doing takeaway pop ups in the village hall and Knockroma Pizzeria did a few pop up events.
Making pizza for 70 people was a bit different to making pizza for friends and family so Pi went on a Pizza Making Course in Glasgow and now the aim is to do one pop up a month throughout the year from the Village Hall. Find out when the next one is on their Facebook page.
