Stobie’s Pizza

Classic London pizza joint. I don’t go often, but enjoy it every time I do. Pricing is pretty reasonable and it’s no frills attitude is refreshing. The staff are always friendly and efficient. Don’t bet on getting one of the few seats at lunch though.

This is, hands down, the best pizza joint in London!
The crust and sauce are delicious, and they cater to a variety of dietary restrictions.
The staff are always friendly and polite.

While in London recently we decided to check out Stobie’s Pizza and see what all this buzz is about. We were not disappointed. The pizza was delicious, cooked perfectly with a great crust and the donair was out of this world. This would of been a 5 star review had we of not needed to stick around outside for an extra 20 minutes beyond the stated pick up time. I’ll be back to Stobie’s the next time I’m in London.

Very unhappy with this place… They refused to deliver to me because I was close to one of their competitors. It was 12 am and their competitor was closed. And the pizza was over cooked.

Stobies has the best vegan pizza in London. (I haven’t had their regular pizza in years but I remembering it being quite good as well.)
Just order the Daiya cheese instead of regular cheese, it’s a little bit extra but well worth having actual vegan pizza delivered to you.
The hours Stobies is open is also incredibly helpful for students who might be studying late and low on food (and let’s be honest, you don’t want to have to go out and hunt for food at two in the morning.)

One of the things Stobies advertises to have is donairs. A dish invented and famous in the maritimes. On three separate occasions we came to this restaurant looking for donairs. For something they advertise on their store banner as a specialty dish, it should be expected that they have it available all the time.
First time we came, they didn’t have any donair meat in stock. Disappointed, we left to return on another day. A week later, we returned to try again. But again, alas, no donair meat.
Finally on our third attempt, they finally had the meat in from their supplier. We happily made our order. The guy behind the counter went to the back for a few minutes and came out to inform us that we will be again disappointed. They did indeed have donair meat, but it was frozen solid in their back freezer.
Why would you keep something not only your menu, but on your store banner and keep it frozen in your back freezer and refuse to serve it to your customers.
For the last time we will leave this restaurant disappointed, as we will not ever be returning.

A definite reason why Stobie’s is so popular is because every day they choose 3 names that are eligible to get any free slice of pizza! What an awesome idea and great way to gain new customers.
The pizza on the other hand, is okay at best. Generous sizes, but a little bland and too saucy for my taste.
The store is small with about 6 – 8 bar stools max to eat at, but they have a convenient wooden ledge outside too.

The number one thing Stobie’s does right is customer service and their social media. A few years ago, my friend tells me that everyday they tweet some names and they get free pizza. WHAT?! Really? *clicks follow* It turns out I was their 600^th twitter follower and they offered me a free medium pizza! That’s awesome!
The other day it was my Pizza-​Name day, a common term for any pizza lover in London. I went in and there was a ton of different slices to choose from. It was really fresh too but a bit greasy. The bag was pretty see-​through by the time I got home.
The workers there are always pretty chipper, even at night when theres a bunch of drunk people barking order at them. I like that they are fun to interact with.
I really only visit Stobie’s on my Pizza-​Name day and after the bar. It is fairly decent pizza once and a while but I wouldn’t say its my #1 go-​to when I want to order for delivery. When we did get the free medium, we chose the Smoky BBQ Chicken and it was pretty darn awesome.
All and all, if you’re downtown and like a thicker crust and sauced up slice, Stobie’s should be your choice!

Walked in for a slice and was blown away by their idea of a slice. For less than $ 5, you get a massive piece of the pie. It definitely wasn’t piping hot or fresh; however, it was warm enough that it didn’t taste or feel like it had been sitting there for very long. I got the Canadian pizza, which has bacon, mushrooms, cheese and pepperoni (could you ask for anything more in this life?) and it was the bomb. The crust is very soft and fairly thick so the slice is going to fill you up fast.
They handed me a loyalty card and said I could get free slices if I buy 10 slices. Not a problem, Stobie’s.

The pizza is average tasting, however, follow them on Twitter as Stobies announces four names every day who will get free slices. Everyone who has one of those four names eats for free (with ID). Also, they offer gluten free and Daiya cheese for vegans. It’s nice to know you can order a pizza for delivery, even if you are following a plant-​based diet.

This was my place to go for drunken pizza. Probably because my drunken self can forgive how disgusting it really is.
I bought a large pizza with pepperoni and bacon. They told us it would be ready in 25 minutes for pickup. Half hour later we got there and still had to wait fifteen minutes. The bacon? Raw. The pizza crust itself wasn’t cooked, leading to a floppy spice and toppings sliding off left and right. My boyfriend and I each ate half a slice (maybe not even that) and gave up and made our own food.
Never again. Even my drunk ass can find some new pizza place to eat.

This is the best now «Vegan friendly» pizza in the city. It is as affordable as it is incredibly decadent.
The sauce has been completely revamped from the old style, it no longer contains any animal products at all in the dough or the sauce. Everything is made in house and from scratch here so they have great control over possible contaminants.
They offer pizza with Daiya*Vegan cheese* and a glutten free option as well. It’s extremely progressive and commendable of Stobies to step up like this, not to mention the free delivery for most of the city.
For 20 dollars + tip I get an extra large 2 topping Daiya*Vegan Cheese* pizza to my door with a smile every time from the driver, what is better than that kind of service?
Love it!

Stobie’s offers a free slice of pizza for those whose people’s names start with the letters they choose that day. So when AN came up, I braved the cold and walked around the block to grab some. While the gesture of a free slice was really nice, I just didn’t find the pizza that good. The dough was too thick and dough, and the sauce was a little bland. And while I love cheese, there was so much cheese that my colon cried for a day. It’s definitely for those poor drunken souls that need to sober up a bit before crashing, as Stobie’s keep late hours to accommodate to that crowd

I used to go to Stobie’s a lot when I was in high school as it was close by. I would also occasionally stop by after a late night downtown as they’re open until late hours. The pizza here isn’t bad by any means because if you’re hungry, it’ll hit the spot just fine. But it isn’t my favourite by any means as I find the crust to be a bit too doughy at times and their sauce is a little on the bland side. It’s good for what it’s worth.

Chewy thick doughy pizza. My veggie slice was enough for two and just over $ 5.00, tax included. Not the best pizza I‘ve tasted possibly because it had been waiting there for me a little too long, but not entirely bad either. Standing room only, we ate our slice in the bright spring sunshine. What could be nicer?

Stobie makes his money on the drunk after-​party crowd. And I don’t begrudge him is success. But let’s be real here — this is far from the best slice of pizza in London. The sad tale starts at a crust that’s thick and doughy but lacks much crispiness or flavour. The sauce also lacks flavour aside from a kick of black pepper and maybe some garlic salt. And the cheese is suspicious at best: it melts just a little bit too easily to be real mozzarella. Overall the impression is of a store-​bought pizza you baked yourself at home.
The plus side ought to be that you get a huge slice — a whole third of a large pizza. But look at the price tag: at $ 4+ for that big slice, you really aren’t getting a deal by any measure. Just go next door and get a shawarma next time.

Stobies is most definatly one of the after bar hot spots along richmond row for a slice of pizza. Sometimes I swear it seems like everyone and their grandma showed up to get some pizza there, lol. But no matter what they always seem to have enough to go around. Sometimes I question how sanitary this little cramped pizza shop can be when you see them making pizza’s right beside the sink, but after a night at the bars thats the last thing your thinking about. They also have delivery but I’ve never ordered a whole pizza from here, just the slices. Personally I like them, they’re huge, taste great with great toppings on them, and are usually hot and fresh depending what time you stop in at. They’re prices defiantly rival that of other pizza shops in the city as well, but the slice size is massive!

Stobie’s is the place to get a slice of pizza after whooping it up on the Richmond Street northern crawl. It’s hardly a well-​kept secret, however, as even at three in the morning on weekends it’s often crawling with drunken students. There isn’t really any seating; it’s mostly for take-​out and delivery on account of the kind of business they do. There are some counters inside you can stand at when you eat your slice.
The pizza itself is pretty good (though I wouldn’t rank it as the absolute best I’ve ever had). Of course, it helps if you get a fresh slice. But even one that’s been under the lamp a while can hit the spot when you’ve put back a number of drinks and need something to soak ‘em up.
