Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the pizza itself, describing proper Italian style pies with a tasty base, a sourdough crust and freshly made toppings. One diner had a margarita and a pepperoni and called the toppings sublime, while another says it is the best pizza since last being in Italy. Close behind is the cheesy garlic bread, which one reviewer loved, though another found it chewy and wanted fresh mozzarella on it. A parent who ordered gluten free and dairy free for the first time calls it the best version they have tried, and another notes plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Service is described as polite, with one fussy eater getting chicken added and less tomato without any trouble, and a pizza ready in about five minutes. The dining room is tiny, with only five tables, and one reviewer would rather takeaway than sit in with Emmerdale playing on the TV. Complaints centre on the dough lacking flavour and the base sauce needing more, plus small pizzas where some slices had no toppings and the rest were falling off by the time they got home.

“Heard great things so decided to try and was not disappointed, about the best pizza I've had since I was last in Italy, so fresh and tasty, give them a try as it's a fantastic place 👌”
- David Lear
“I was staying local and the receptionist at the hotel recommended this Pizzeria. The lovely lady that served me was polite, professional. Nothing was too much trouble. I’m a fussy eater and don’t like too much tomato on my pizza. I added chicken this was not a problem. It was ready in about 5 mins. The receptionist was correct. The Pizza was absolutely fantastic. I’d definitely recommend this place and that’s from a fussy, grumpy old man.”

“Small pizzas for price some slices had no toppings and toppings were falling off by time got home. Wings v small portion for price. Other better quality and value for money available. (I didn't actually only tasted a v small amount was not impressed and did not eat mine)”
