Civerinos Open on the Prom

Civerinos, well known all over for their famous pizza have officially opened their latest venture on the promenade at Portobello beach in Edinburgh called ‘Prom Slice’.

Opening a slice bar in the new location has always been a dream for the Owner Michele Civiera and his family as it is situated in their hometown of Portobello, right on the beach. This will be the fifth opening for Civerinos in the city, following their recent slice bar in Corstorphine called ‘West Slice’. There will be a slice window for take-away and space indoors for 20, with an outdoor seating area which will feature up to 50 deckchairs overlooking the sea, with plans to expand their outdoor area. Civerinos will donate initially up to 50 deckchairs, which were originally a main feature on Portobello beach many years ago. They will be rented out to customers and locals alike with all proceeds going to local Portobello charities such as The Toddler Hut, Beach Wheelchairs and Edinburgh’s Dog & Cat Home.

The new menu will see a lot of firm favourites for their loyal pizza fans, with a few new specials and creations especially for Portobello. Renowned Chef, Tom Kitchin is designing an exclusive pizza for the opening week with all proceeds going to a local charity. Prom Slice will open in the morning for smoothies and breakfast with all day pizza, through to late night offering pizza for the whole family, with the plan to have deckchairs overlooking the beach to enjoy the sunset with frozen margaritas.
