brick oven

Stone-lined firebox

A brick oven is an oven with walls made of brick or stone, typically heated by wood fire and prized for baking bread and pizza.

The masonry retains and radiates heat evenly, producing a distinctive char and crust.

The pizzeria advertises its authentic brick oven.

The term often signals artisanal quality in restaurant marketing.
