About us

Almost three decades baking with the same passion

Pizzeria Primavera was born in 1997 as a small family project in Fuengirola. Over the years it has become a reference for handmade pizza on the Costa del Sol — without losing the warmth, the craft and the obsession with honest ingredients.

Our story, year by year

1997
Opening in Fuengirola
In April 1997 Pizzeria Primavera opens in Fuengirola: a family project committed to quality, local produce and the authentic taste of Italy.

The second generation takes over
After more than a decade, Olivier and Laurent Van de Vyer take the reins of the family business. They drive the craft philosophy forward and bring new ideas without losing the essence.
2013
Our sourdough is born
We start our own sourdough, fermented for hours, which makes our pizzas lighter, easier to digest and gives them a unique flavour.
2015
Our first professional oven
A key investment in a state-of-the-art oven: better baking, more consistency and an even crisper texture in every pizza.
2016
Natural wines on the menu
We add a careful selection of natural wines from local wineries and like-minded producers, chosen to pair with our pizzas.
2022
A new look
We refresh our visual identity and the interior of the restaurant, with a fresher, cosier feel that matches how Primavera has grown.
