Atilano, Pizzeria in Coghlan, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Atilano is a pizzeria in the Coghlan neighborhood of northern Buenos Aires, serving Argentine-style pizza, fainá, and empanadas. The space includes both an indoor dining room and an outdoor seating area open to the street.
Coghlan grew in the late 1800s around a railway station, drawing immigrant families who settled in the surrounding streets. The pizza culture that developed in Buenos Aires has its roots in those same communities, and Atilano is part of that local story.
In Buenos Aires, pizza is often eaten standing at the counter, and Atilano follows this tradition. Ordering a slice alongside a piece of fainá, a thin chickpea flatbread, is the local way of doing things and something visitors can try here.
The pizzeria is on a residential street in Coghlan, within walking distance of the Coghlan train station. It can fill up on weekends and during peak meal times, especially in the outdoor area, so arriving a little early is a good idea.
Pets are welcome in the outdoor area, which is unusual enough in the neighborhood to make this a regular stop for dog owners on an evening walk. The indoor rooms are decorated with objects from past decades that reward a slow look around.
