Hell Pizza, Wexford Street. Closed?

Birneybau

Hi folks,

Does anybody know what is happening with that oasis of good pizza, Hell on Wexford Street?

Have passed it all week, been closed, chairs up on tables, no sign on door.

Really gonna miss it if it's gone, best pizza in Dublin imo, always order it on Saturday, hungover, watching rubbish/football/rubbish football on the tv.

Have googled etc, can't find a damn thing.

Tonight we can't dine in Hell. Aw.

But there are many other pizza establishments to choose from......but....alas, they're not Hell.

So, was there a link to a story or was it something you heard?

won't miss it, went in once and thought the decor inside was cr4p. Very cheesey. Ordered online a few times to try it out and thought it was pretty average.

Word of mouth and 2nd hand so wouldn't repeat online

I picked up a pizza stone and tried it out recently and the results were outstanding so I think I will have to indulge again tonight.

Of course it's cheesy. It's pizza. (Ba dum tish).

Ah I liked it for what it was. Lovely pizza and great beer.

I only went to Hells Pizza once, quite liked it, but wasn't crazy about it...

Hate to see places closing, that is sad.

We went to Skinflint, that new pizza place where the original Crackbird was (Crane Lane), pizza was really nice, and cheap!

Coriolanus

I passed it the NIGHT OF THE GREAT FLOOD dun dun dun... and there was about a foot of water lapping at the door. Might have something to do with it?

I'm really not surprised. The decor on the inside was horrendous and always turned me off going in. I went in a couple of times for their all you can eat - it was ok, but far from 'gourmet' as advertised. Will miss the gorgeous American waitress though!

And I'll bet she misses you too Tusky :P

People rave to me about this place but honestly I can't see why. Tastes like a frozen pizza you'd buy in Dunnes or something.

Hell pizza was awesome. Very original recipes. Shame they are closed.

Any word in why it closed yet?

I wouldn't say that it tastes like frozen pizza...the slightly more upmarket ingredients (i.e. goats cheese and all that lark) puts it a notch above Dunnes pizzas, but i don't think they taste very good for the price. Plus there's nowhere to sit, i think there was in Hell, right?
