Pizza Quality
Pros:
"The main event, the pizzas, were perfect! The sourdough base were just as tasty and the smell promised and were a perfect serving size!"
"sourdough pizza is indeed guaranteed the signature. smoky burnt crusty chewy but not rubbery pizza dough."
"Sharing meat platter with sour dough bread as a starter and then on to easily the best pizza I think I’ve ever tasted!"
"The pizza was of good quality. All the ingredients used in it were fresh."
"Both pizzas had the same cheesy and tasty toppings, and looked very nice."
"Our pizzas were as good as they used to be, if not better, considering that there are more organic ingredients now: well-risen dough, cooked properly, abundant excellent quality toppings."
"If you want a good tasting pizza in Bournemouth I recommend here this is our favourite place."
"All 5 pizzas we ordered were yummy, great tasting dough, milky mozzarella, just the right amount to topping and cooked to perfection."
Cons:
"Mine was from the specials board though which I assumed came with a marinara base. It didn't come with marinara on, so a little disappointed."
"Both the ham pizzas had barely any flavour nor ham which was a shame."
"The toppings were messy and not even at all (AT ALL). Very disappointing…"
"All sour doh! The pizza was terrible. Over cooked and very little chease topping."
"Toppings sparse. No herbs whatsoever."
"The pizza choice was limited and when mine arrived the overriding flavour was of the burnt bits."
"If you want a good tasting pizza in Bournemouth I recommend here this is our favourite place."
"The pizza was burnt on the underside yet the dough was partly raw inside the crust and under the toppings."

Ambience

"The pizza was good but the service really let it down. We were sat quickly but then it took them 20mins to come take our orders."
"They are severely understaffed in the kitchen. It was nearly a full house and only one chef."
"This place could be amazing but the service was very slow and our order was clearly forgotten."
"Poor management. No one noticed us leave."
"We were sat for 20 minutes without anyone asking for our drinks order, then left."
Value for Money
Pros:
"reasonable prices in a nice environment."

"Prices are also more reasonable than in other restaurants that cannot compete with this quality."
"Very good Italian pizza. Good menu. Clean and tidy. Nice and friendly service. Prices? Very reasonable."

"The cost was right for the quality of food."
"Food was amazing, we had a specials starter of artichoke with mozzarella and sundried tomatoes, it was delicious! A bottle of red wine, two pizzas and a tiramisu to share, absolutely delicious ❤"

"Unbelievably shocking service. After providing my unidays discount for a pizza and a drink for 6.95."
"We had to wait for ages to be asked if we would like desert! Eventually this came and we had to wait for ages for the bill."
"The team where lovely and polite but don't come here if you are on a schedule or need to be somewhere."
"Despite the terms and conditions of the offer saying that all we need to provide was the offer code and the UNiDAYS ID on the app."
