Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza & Wings: 900-Degree Pies Near Wellington's Show Grounds

Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza & Wings brings its signature 900-degree coal ovens to State Road 7 in Wellington, just down the road from the Wellington International Equestrian Center. The high-heat cooking process is what gives the restaurant's pizzas their charred, blistered crust — a technique the chain has built its whole identity around.

The menu centers on coal-fired pies like the Caprese, topped with fresh mozzarella, vine-ripened tomatoes, and basil, and the Meatballs & Ricotta pizza, alongside jumbo never-frozen chicken wings, pasta, salads, and gluten-free pizza options. Dough and sauce are made in-house with Italian tomatoes, and the kitchen leans on straightforward, quality ingredients rather than a long list of toppings.

A Fit for Wellington's Equestrian Crowd

Given its location near the show grounds, Anthony's caters heavily to the equestrian community, handling catering orders for horse show events and barn parties in addition to its regular dine-in service. The chain has also picked up national attention, having been named one of the best pizza chains in the U.S. by Newsweek.

The Wellington location, at 1000 S State Rd 7, is open daily from 11:00 AM, closing at 10:00 PM Sunday through Thursday and 11:00 PM on Friday and Saturday — a reliable stop for coal-fired pizza and wings whether you're headed to the show ring or just craving a charred crust.
