Well...what can I say? My uncle has been coming here since he was a kid and has always raved about it (they've been open 50 years). They definitely keep it old skool with limited web presence, not even a working website and they only open 4 nights a week, it's definitely one of those places where if you know, you know I finally got to go with him and the family to eat lots and lots of pizza for a family member's birthday meal and oh it didn't disappoint!! We tried lots of different ones and they were all really good. Nice and fresh, thin crisp bases with loads of flavour. The service was brilliant too. Hope to be back soon to try some more pizzas. Yum!

Second time having this place and they've been bang on every time. Even the picky kids polished the lot off.

My Late Father first took me here as a ' dad & daughter birthday treat' back when I was 4 (1984!) . This became a tradion of ours EVERY year on my birthday up until he died in 2011 & I continue the tradition now with my 2 older sons ( we'll be back next week!).... And travel from Rivington! I absolutely love this place, incredible memories have been made here and without a doubt the best pizza you will EVER experience!
