New York-Style Pizza Pop-Up Vinnie’s Pies Is A Must-Try in St. Pete
St.petersburg, FL – A taste of New York has been consistently selling out in St. Petersburg, as Vinnie’s Pies, a rapidly growing pizza pop-up, continues to draw crowds at local markets. For over a month, the demand for their hand-tossed, New York-style slices has consistently exceeded supply at spots like Mezzo market and the St. Pete Sunday Market.
Vinnie and Ursula, the duo behind Vinnie’s Pies, bring a passion for authentic pizza honed through years of experience. Prior to relocating to Florida, they successfully operated an award-winning resturant in Fort Smith, Arkansas, a venture that began as a humble backyard pop-up. Inspired by Vinnie’s Jersey upbringing-where weekends revolved around family, food, and, of course, pizza-they’re now focused on establishing a permanent location in St. Pete while serving the community through pop-up events.
Vinnie’s Pies isn’t operating in isolation; they’re actively collaborating with other local vendors. Recent partnerships include a birria pizza creation with Birria Bros and a lunch service at Golden Isles Brewing Co., located at 3000 MLK Jr. St. N. Golden Isles has quickly become a hub for pop-up businesses, also hosting franca’s Pizza every Friday, Liberty Smokehouse (their sole St. Pete location), and Tower 10 Burger, which recently expanded to include Tower 10 Tacos on Sundays.
The success of Vinnie’s Pies reflects the broader explosion of the pizza pop-up scene in St. Petersburg over the past few years, with other local favorites like Cipolla Rossa and Franca’s Pizza also gaining prominence through market appearances.
