"Food was excellent. Pizzas feel like home made. Not shy on toppings and cheese.Generous portion of masala chips. If ordering with kids be mindful and request mild. The chicken pizza has a kick. They are running some great specials at the moment especially the family deals. Placed an order during a busy period and the food was ready on time as promised over the phone and was prepared really well. No shortcuts. Well done to the team on ensuring great service and great comfort food."
