My gosh where to start, i am new to the area my husband is not , he has told me about this place so I popped in after a massage and was greeted right away , i was advised there would be a wait (no biggie, good things take time) I loved I was advised right away of the wait , I ordered with a young lady at the counter who was polite and patient with showing me the sizes of the pizza , I told them I would go home and come back after the advised with time. I came back to collect my order and it was ready to the exact time advised, on my way out I was thanked by who I assume is the owner and the door opened for me by a young gentleman finishing his shift , definitely recommend. The vibe in the shop is light and homely and the food well that was just delicious even my very fussy hard to please toddler didn't hesitate in digging in
