Clark’s Pizzeria

Pizza is probably the one thing I could eat on a daily basis, and I have tried it all! Some are better than others, some are pretty darn awful. Clark’s fits in the this category.
I respect those who are putting it out there, trying to make a living as a small restaurantuer, but one should work to perfect their craft over time. My wife grew up in Bradford, (home of Clark’s Pizza) so we are familiar with their pie. It is still as bland now as it was 16 + years ago when I first had it.
Let’s start with the crust. When I was a child, my mom would buy a pizza crust mix from the local grocery store. Just add water, mix, and you have a flavorless dough. Easy? Yes. Good? No. This is exactly what Clark’s crust tastes like. This is not a fond childhood memory.
The sauce is of the off-​the-​self canned variety. Or if it isn’t, it sure tastes that way. It also has no real flavor, just bland and processed. Sauce isn’t hard to make. If you want a memorable pizza, you need a good sauce. These people need to work on creating a solid, flavorful sauce and ditch the can. It might even make up for the terrible crust. (Probably not.)
The toppings are nothing to speak of either. They are store bought quality, lumped together with sub-​par cheese. Then again, this entire pizza is designed to be cheaply thrown together at a low price. Quantity not quality. The Clark’s experience is exactly like «Mom used to make.» My mom was a good cook, but homemade pizza was always the worst! The pizza that used to be sold at this address was FAR superior to this local chain restaurant. Instead of just using the building, they should have used the Diana’s recipe as well. It was our local favorite and it is so sad that it has been replaced with such an inferior product.

First let me say, pizza is my favourite «comfort» food. I could eat it every day.
I picked up a pizza from Clark’s a few weeks ago. The nicest thing I can say is that it is very uninspired. The crust tasted frozen. The toppings were bulk pre-​cut and tasted it.
The sauce was bland and flavourless. I could have had a better pizza if I had picked up a frozen one at the local grocery store. Overall a disappointing experience.
