Stobie's Pizza

This is a great place to go for some pizza if you are downtown, its late, and you're hungry. When most other places are closed, this place remains open. The pizza is pretty average, but seems to taste a lot better when you've got the late night munchies. And nothing else is open. I don't see the appeal of it at any other time though. Service is pretty fast and friendly, and you get good value for the money. Huge slices at a low price.

Ordered a pizza delivered. It was delivered...

Ordered a pizza delivered. It was delivered promptly and politely. I think $17 is a bit much for a large 2 topping but I'm happy to pay for good pizza delivery. When we opened the box - we were horrified. They got our order right...that is about all I can say positively. The pizza clearly had been cooked without toppings. After it had been cooked the pizza was cut then toppings tossed on top. I know because the pepperonis had no cuts. Also, the pepperoni half was so much larger than the mushroom half it made me angry. Now on to the actually eating of the pizza: It was almost all dough. The sauce and cheese were cheap. My girlfriend wondered if the cheese was past its 'best before' date. One lopsided part of the crust was so big that the center of it had not cooked thoroughly. Overall the flavor was bland and unremarkable. Maybe this sort of food is ok at 3am after enough beer that a shoe would be delicious...sadly for me I was sober. Stobie's - Never Again!

We ordered pizza delivery, were told 45 minutes...

We ordered pizza delivery, were told 45 minutes. After an hour, called back and asked, he said the driver was on his way. 30 minutes later, called again, said forget it, we don't want it, the guy on the phone could care less, and told us just to tell the driver that when he got there. He showed up 2 HOURS after we placed our order and we sent him away. We liked the pizza, but not enough to put up with terrible service and a 2 hour wait with no apology. We will never go to stobies again, just as we were becoming regulars.

Pretty standard pizza joint in the downtown core...

Pretty standard pizza joint in the downtown core. The slices are large, but are also close to $5.00. Certainly decent and service is always friendly when I have been. A couple setbacks: Long lines, especially at night. The place is a hotspot for people wanting something to eat after the bars, or a night of drinking. As a result, I've ran into quite a few obnoxious student types here, but I mind my own business and ignore them. My suggestion is to go in the day to get faster service, and so you don't have to deal with the students. I've never had their delivery.

Hands down the best pizza in the the city...

Hands down the best pizza in the the city. Whether you're looking for a post-bar snack, a lunchtime meal, or a full blown pizza-meal, this is the place to go. Stobie's pizza sauce has a kick to it that makes it what it is. The only drawbacks are the rundown shop and long line-ups, but honestly, who cares when all you want is pizza?
