The Pizza Co.

Tucked along the busy run of takeaways in Ballyhackamore, The Pizza Co. is a local collection-and-delivery spot that keeps East Belfast fed with fresh handmade pizzas, loaded garlic breads and a tidy line of sides. Build-your-own pies are the heart of the menu, so you can start with a classic Margherita Pizza and pile on whatever you fancy, from pepperoni to jalapeños. It's an easy, no-fuss option for a relaxed night in or a quick bite while you're out and about in this corner of the city.

The kitchen holds a 'Good' Food Hygiene Rating from its most recent inspection, which is reassuring if you're ordering for the family. Portions are generous and the meal deals make it a sensible shout when you're feeding a few people at once. Service is geared around takeaway and delivery rather than sit-down dining, so it suits anyone after a quiet evening at home. With plenty of competition on the same stretch, The Pizza Co. earns its place by sticking to crowd-pleasing favourites done simply and well.
