  1. I love Bits and Pizzas, ye, I get the decor is a bit shabby and wouldn’t recommend ordering anything other than pizza but there’s something very comforting about it.
    They do a good lunch option – small pizza with two toppings and delicious coleslaw for €9. The serve this up until 6pm so if you work in the area, you can nip in for a cheap dinner!

  2. I think that’s a bit of an unfair review – Bits and Pizzas is a absolute gem. Try the caesar salad – it’s addictive! The garlic mushrooms are also good. I agree with the comment above that the pizzas are what to choose, but the starters are really good too.

    Bits and Pizzas also have started a value menu which really can’t be beaten. It’s a true example of a family restaurant, and the staff have always been polite and friendly, even willing to go the extra mile.

    My family have been going to it for years and years. I love this place, go about once a fortnight, and to be honest, am often disappointed in other Italians. The restaurant also innovates – not only with the value menu, but also with tasty and varying specials.

  3. Go to Bits n Pizzas for the pizza. It was easily the best on the southside when I was growing up and I suspect that’s still the case. I’ve had pizza all over the place at this stage but when I think pizza it’s a Bits n’ Pizzas pizza that my tastebuds start fantasising about. I really hope the place is open for a long long time yet. Always good value and service even in the times when other places opted to charge a fortune and employed staff who treated you with contempt.

  4. Thanks for updating your review to take into account the comments you received – I appreciate that!

    Obviously I still think B&P is fantastic, but I’ll admit that I don’t order the side salads – I hope you have better success the next time you go!

  5. I’m not originally from the area, recently ate in B&P and it was pretty awful to be honest. Poor quality ingredients and poor quality preparation. The service was ok although we were waiting quite a while to be served but we left pretty certain that we wouldn’t be returning, felt a little ripped off if I’m honest. I think B&P may have slipped down a slippery slope as I’ve heard of its great past reputation. Its a pity as I do like finding local little gems, B&P does not hit the mark.
