Enjoy a Taste of Europe in the Heart of the Rideau.
At Forno, we bring the warmth of European village bakeries to the heart of Westport, Ontario. Our handcrafted artisanal sourdough breads and wood-fired pizzas are made with care, tradition, and a whole lot of local love.
What We're Offering
Savour a pizza in front of our cozy wood-fired oven or grab a beer on our spacious patio, at Forno we aim to bring a little slice of Europe to the beautiful village of Westport.
We offer something for every part of your day - from a breakfast sandwich or cinnamon bun and latte in the morning, to a quick lunch of one of our daily sandwiches and Ontario craft soda or to lingering over a wood-fired pizza, salad and a glass of unique European wine or local beer.
Take home an artisanal loaf or a frozen wood-fired pizza to reheat and enjoy the exceptional taste of a Forno pizza from the comfort of home or the cottage.

Our Story
Pizza has been my family passion for over 15 years, making pizzas wherever we moved for work as geologists and embracing local cultures and ingredients. Living in Portugal, we grew accustomed to daily, fresh sourdough bread from our local village bakery. After we returned to Canada I was inspired to recreate the tastes we missed.
Forno was launched at Westport Market in Spring 2023, and the response from the local community was so positive we took the plunge to develop a storefront and restaurant, which after a long construction process finally fully opened in May 2025.
Behind the new launch of Forno is an incredibly hard-working, dedicated and passionate team who bring fresh ideas and experiences to our menu. We will continue to grow and embrace inspiration from the people and places around us!

Why Choose Us
All of our breads and pizzas are made in small batches using our unique sourdough starter. This includes everything we bake, including cinnamon buns, baguettes and bagels!
Our menu is crafted with care and includes both locally sourced and select imported quality ingredients. Our pizzas change with the seasons as we feature local vegetables and herbs from Forman Farms and Wendy’s Country Market and premium cured meats from Creel & Gambrel and Seed to Sausage. Our house-made marinara highlights the unique sweetness and flavour of Italian ‘Rosso Gargano’ tomatoes.
Our sandwiches feature a Portuguese-style ‘papo seco’ bun, exceptional cured meats from Creel & Gambrel and delicious cheeses from Stonetown Artisan Cheese.
We proudly bake our speciality organic loaves with locally grown grains, freshly milled by Fat Chance Farmstead and 1847 Stone Milling.
Coffee beans are roasted to order from Propeller Coffee in Toronto. Beers on tap are from Kick and Push in Sharbot Lake, and our selection of European wines are curated through Wine by Brent, who sources from wine agents that represent small, family-run vineyards (and are not available in the LCBO).
