Paulie's Pizza on Grand Canal Street do the best pizza in the whole country I reckon!!

Four Star is by far the worst of the pizza chains in Ireland.

By a mile! I don't go near the likes of Dominos or Four Star unless I'm absolutely desperate!

Go get yourself some proper pizza! Mario's in Malahide.....DELISH!

Bistro Bianconi's do excellent pizza. Ranelagh or Ballsbridge.

emeraldstar

Never actually had Four Star but now I want to just to see how bad it is!

If you're looking for cheap and cheerful pizza, Pizza Max is pretty good. Decent chips too.
They have a thin base pizza, much better than the likes of Four Star etc.
The one in North Strand delivers to the south city also.

Base WFP in Terenure or Ballsbridge. Excellent

Mrs Fox

Mario's in Terenure
Millers on Baggot St
And
+1 on Paulie's Pizza. Their sister restaurant Juniors in Ballsbridge is superb too.

Bistro bianconi in sligo made the best pizza I ever had, so the Dublin one might be good.

Must try paulies

Hells pizza is great!
Edit: its closed down

Novecento in Cork is unreal.

Popping into the pizza thread to add a new place I've tried twice now - Al Vesuvio on Mespil Road in Dublin 4.
Pizza is amazing, and good value - around 10 or 12 quid for 12 inch pizza, depending on toppings.
The sides I've tried were not good (chips - soggy, Italian potatoes - perhaps nice once, but reheated and super-greasy), but the pizza is maybe the best delivered pizza I've ever had - thin base, fresh-tasting and delicious, with exactly the right amount of toppings.

Firehouse in Ballymun is great

Get your furry little ass to your local Supervalu.

Order the pizza of your dreams, bring that bad boy home, cook him yourself and enjoy its tasty delights.


Thats what I do, innit.

Do they actually cook their own or do they get them in?

The best pizza I've had in Ireland was in the Ballymore Inn in Ballymore Eustace in Wicklow.

Sober Lane wasn't far off though.

I'd second that. I've been a regular and it never fails on pizza. As said the sides are another story. Foccachia is ok but it's really just salty herby pizza dough - we know better at this stage! I nip next door to Beshoffs for me chips!

I'm pretty sure the OP was talking about delivery chains. Everyone in the country is going to have their own local favourite.

If it's a pizza chain you are looking for - Mizzoni do very good pizzas.

Rays do very good pizza. There is one in Temple bar and one beside Harcourt street. I suppose they could be considered a chain as there are two of them but not the delivery type chain like Domino's, Four star etc.

BlueJohn

If in town drinkin, rays. If ordering for home apache

RandolphEsq

Chicagotown Takeaway is phenomenal.

harry Bailey esq

lotsa local chippers all over the country making pizza now.can be a bit hit and miss but generally i think they beat the large chains hands down.flanagans on o connell st do a lovely thin base pizza but they don't deliver

biko

The place next to Neachtain's.

Keep meaning to try Paulie's, the food in Junior's is quality anyway
