The only sourdough Detroit-style pizzeria in Rhode Island. Sister restaurant to Riccotti’s.
Fair & Square is a Detroit-style pizzeria built around our sourdough crust. We make it in-house every day from a starter we feed daily, using locally grown organic flour and authentic Wisconsin brick cheese. As far as we know, we’re the only shop in Rhode Island making Detroit-style pizza on a sourdough crust.
Our dough is thick, like focaccia, with a crispy exterior and a light, airy interior. The wild yeast from the sourdough imparts a complex, artisanal flavor to the dough. It’s then baked in our seasoned steel pans where the cheese not only melts on the top of the pizza, but between the crust and the pan as well. This is where the magic happens: The fat from the cheese fries the exterior of the dough, which is what creates the signature dark, caramelized crust that defines Detroit-style.
The mission of the shop is in the name: truly great pizza at a fair price. We kept the menu small and the shop lean on purpose. Fewer items and a leaner shop help lower our costs, which allow us to provide something really special at a price people can actually afford.
Fair & Square shares a building and ownership with Riccotti’s next door, the Bristol sandwich shop my family has run for over 50 years. Gift cards and rewards points work at both. Riccotti’s has been here since 1971 because Bristol kept showing up. We’re hoping you’ll show up for this one too.
Thanks,
Detroit is in the house. Tried Fair & Square in Bristol and was just about blown away. Went with the pizza they call the Usual and added fennel sausage. Cooked perfect. Laced edges were amazing. Sauce was perfect. Excellent crunch. Incredible tasting pizza. Rivals the best Detroit pizza I’ve had in the state. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.
Pizza was delicious! Truly amazing pizza, the dough was nice and crunchy on the outside but so soft and fluffy in the middle. The sauce was on point and the toppings worked so well together. I didn’t have any expectations going in but it absolutely blew me away! Best pizza I’ve had in a long time. If you like Detroit pizza, you have to try this!
WOW!! This pizza is AWESOME!! Just checked out the Fair & Square spot and so glad I did. The staff is really friendly, the place is super clean, and the pizza is soooo delicious!! Love the Detroit-style pizza, just-right crispy crust, fresh tomato sauce, and light and fluffy inside. Can’t wait to go back!!
Best pizza in Rhode Island. Yes it’s a bold claim, but this is bold pizza. The crust could win best in the country and I wouldn’t be surprised.
It’s fresh ingredients done well in a style that is refreshingly different than the rest of the pizza in this area. Home-made sourdough pizza and craftsmanship is what you get. Ordered online and it was ready for pick up at the appointed time.
Looks good, tastes better.
