I wanted to like this place to badly! I will always give credit where credit is do, Barnabys Mishawaka was a very cool pizza place with an old world pub interior. The decor and aesthetic is a little confusing as it gives off a feeling of 1983 German sausage polka fest lol. Very cool nostalgic feel non the less. We were with o ok2 couples, so we ordered apps to share. You have to write your order on paper given to you at the table, and they call on a.microphome for you pick up the orders as ready. We ordered a 10" sausage and mushroom pizza, mozzarella sticks and zucchini ( ended up be sold out). We also got chili with shredded cheese to try as it was advertised several places in the restaurant. My hubby ordered a big cheeseburger as well. The pizza was underwhelming at best. Partly was the bland crust and sauce, the topping were generous and fresh, but the cornmeal bottom killed it for me. I would not order again. The mozzarella sticks were standard frozen mozzarella sticks fried and hot. They were generous with quantity! Everyone got at least one or more. The chili was not warm enough, my cheese never melted. I should have returned it to the kitchen but, at that point I was just over this particular night out. I debated on two stars because of the chili temperature, however I know that things happen. The frozen mozzarella sticks, and pizza that was mediocre ( partially a personal preference of no cornmeal) and general ambience is where my ratingis are focused on. Overall, I can see why people come to this restaurant, it has a long standing seat in Mishawaka/south Bend. With that being said, I will most likely not return. read more

We were trying to decide where to go for lunch and I said I feel like a really good pizza. My wife said, "guess we're going to Barnaby's today. 128 miles later (about 70-80 miles less than going to a Chicago area location or other great Chicago pizza place) we walked in to Barnaby's and placed our order. Nothing at all (except perhaps remodeled bathrooms) has changed at this (and probably all Barnaby locations) since I started enjoying their pizza in the early 1970's. You still order at the counter, get your drinks or soda at the bar and wait until your number is called. Our pizza was once again masterfully prepared and reminded me why I am willing to drive so far for good pizza. Wonderful crust, great sauce and perfect ingredients. We purposely left a few pieces so we could snack tonight. This is a perfect Chicago run without going to Chicago. A mile or so up the road is a Portillo's where we also stopped and bought a few pounds of Italian Beef so we won't be without this winter. But once again, this review is about Barnaby's. Totally impressed and thrilled at the same time that a place like this can maintain its consistence and excellence for well over 50 years. read more

I have been going to Barnaby's forever. It started with the store on Jefferson and grew from there . In my opinion it is one of my go to places for a pizza. It seems that all the food I have tried there has been outstanding. My favorite is the one on grape in Mishawaka I have been eating there so long I can't remember when I started. The people are always friendly and helpful to make your visit a memory that last and makes you want to go back.. read more

I hadn't been to the Barnaby's on Grape Road in over 40 years. I didn't remember the pizza as being bad, so when my husband's nephew suggested going there for a family dinner, I was ok with the choice. First, there were 12 of us and this place has nothing but booths making conversation difficult. Ordering was confusing because you're supposed to fill out a form and then bring it up to the counter. We didn't have a form at our table, so we were lost until my sister-in-law showed up and went up to counter and got the forms. We got two large pizzas. The base price is $24.55, and toppings were $1.35 each. We paid a total of $56.87 (including tax) for a pepperoni pizza and pepperoni and sausage pizza. Drinks for 4 was another $11 and didn't include refills. So we spent nearly $70 for mediocre pizza at best and drinks with no refills. About the pizza, because that's what we were there for, it was the second worst I've ever had. The sauce and toppings were fine, but the crust was not your normal hand tossed yeast dough. It was some sort of machine made crust that was crimped like the pre-made pie crusts you get from the frozen food section at the grocery store. It seemed stale and tasteless. The one bright spot was the young man behind the drink counter. I think his name is Gabino? He was personable and spoke with each person who went up to get drinks. We must have said our granddaughter's name enough that he said goodbye to her as we were leaving. However much he is paid, it's not enough. He deserves more for turning what was an otherwise disappointing experience into something somewhat enjoyable. read more

So, really Barnaby's is a 2-star joint. But it's such a mainstay of the area and has so much atmosphere, I can't give it less than 4. The pizza is simple, but awesome. The staff expect you to know the secret South Bend ways on instinct, so be prepared to fumble around and have them giving you WTF looks the whole time. It's worth it for the experience, though. read more

Pizza was alright. Beef sandwich was like from arbys. Nothing to write home expect friendly service they were spot on

Hey Management at Barnaby's! Add a tip option on your credit/debit card receipt!!! I've been in this location the last 5 Friday nights and your employees are kicking but, making the best pizza in the area! They deserve tips for their hard work and sadly many customers don't carry cash. You have the ability to add to their hourly rate by simply adding that function, so that customers CAN TIP your hardworking employees! (PS the pizza is amazing... I just feel bad for the employees) read more

Good pizza and draft beer. Odd ordering of beer and food in separate lines. Pizza served very hot and fresh.

Ordered takeout Dec 2025. One pizza was totally wrong and all three 20 oz sodas were expired (one over a year ago from Oct 2024). Called the manager (who escalated to owner) would not issue refund -- said I would have to bring the bottles and the pizza back into the store as proof for a 'replacement'. I hate to write this, especially for a family owned business, but the quality of product and care for customers is not acceptable. read more

I am finally back in the South Bend area after living in Texas for almost 20 years. I remembered how great Barnaby's was, and they did not disslappoint! The crust! Generous toppings. Delicious sauce. Nice place to have dinner with the family. read more

Came in for the second time as a group of family . Was told not to put the dirty plates on the already sticky dirty tables bc they were clean and that the front girl would take them .we order a lot of food and was making room. Not sure who he was he does the bar and runs foods . MEANWHILE , the cooks are in the back making pizza while eating pizza picking at their balls ! MAKES SENSE HUH ?!!!? No hair coverings or beard coverings . Everyone looked like they rolled outta bed . Not even clean looking! Oh and I was charged .54 cents for my large pizza box ! For the food, all sandwiches were cold , appetizers taste like cardboard , ranch was yellow , fries were hard as rocks ! The pizza was ok . DO BETTER BARNABYS or close seeing how you charge for pizza boxes ! read more

Maybe the posted hours are wrong. Came by before closing to locked doors. It was disappointing, after making the drive.

WHAT A TOTAL NIGHTMARE OF A MESS!!!!! The restaurant is an absolute disaster! Nasty & dirty. You order your food and pay the RUDE cashier at the 2nd window. They was you receive the food is horrendous! Pizza comes out the first window on the far right. Anything that's not pizza comes from the 3rd window on the left. Then drinks you have to order at the bar - paying separately! What a cluster of a nightmare! Food is VERY EXPENSIVE!!!! Drinks, wow!!! Total rip off. 7.00 for a pitcher of pop, 4.00 for a glass?! Ridiculous. Ah, and the cashier at the bar expected tips when we ordered pop. She pointed at the tip jar everytime someone ordered pop. Don't waste your time on this dark, dingy nasty place!! It's so gross. I ended up getting food poisoning from this place. read more

So awesome to visit this Barnaby's I was traveling here for work. I had a big pizza and some appetizers. The crust was so big and puffy bigger than I'm used to at the old Barnaby's in Des Plaines went through my whole life loved it. This is a great experience being out of state getting the best pizza in the world. In my opinion it was delicious. I loved it great atmosphere great vibe inside. It was busy, but I still got my food in a reasonable time And it was delicious and hot and it was the Cubs playoffs when they won the World Series back in 2016. It was awesome to be in Indiana and also watch the Cubs win.! read more

Ordered 2 Large Partial Baked Pizzas to go. They're the best! Finish baking them at home... But picked them up and girl read off the order 1 Lg Sausage Onion and 1 Lg Sausage & green pepper. Yep. Got home 1 Lg Pepperoni onion & green pepper, one Lg Pepperoni. WE HATE PEPPERONI! Immediately called when I got home and the guy said he'd make 2 more. NO nasty night not going back out. He took my name address & correct pizza order and said he'd send me coupons for the pizzas. NEVER RECEIVED THE COUPONS. $50+ mistake. Sadly the time before went to get my pizza and no record of my order. Guy said oh she makes mistakes. DONE with Barnabys. We'll miss it! read more

Pizza was ready when they said. Guessing the cheese has changed, very salty taste from last time purchased.

Updating my review- originally I put 2 stars because of everything that went wrong... but I did appreciate Barnaby's for reaching out after seeing that I was not pleased. I'm giving them 2 more stars for attempting to make things right which I very much appreciate. I'm glad they care about customer experience cause I'm very happy to support local small businesses compared to chains. *original review: Decent food but god what a mess. We ordered online and paid for 2 pizzas (one pepperoni and sausage and the other was a multiple topping one), cheesey bread, and onion rings. First of all when the s/o got there to pick it up, they forgot to even make the onion rings. So he had to wait for them to make it so by the time he got home - the cheese bread and pizza was not hot anymore. Guess what? It's gets better.... they left out a whole topping that we paid for .. we only got sausage pizza! UGH. Make sure you check your food cause half of your food would be missing or incorrect. read more

My Wife requested the heart shaped pizza for Valentine's Day. Simple Heart-Shaped Half sausage all pepperoni. Get it home and it's a regular circular pizza. I called immediately. Transferred 3 times and told finally "There's nothing we can do about it." I stated I would have returned the wrong pizza to get the heart shaped for her.... "there's nothing they can do". The place was dead ( There were 4 booths taken up in the restaurant ,l5:30 Friday night), so obviously it wasn't too busy. Having inept staff responses to what are normal accidental issues is beyond disappointing. Thanks for not taking responsibility and losing more customers. Will go beyond not recommending this location., will actively tell people to avoid it. read more

Pretty good pizza. Cheese bread wasn't terrific but, ok. Toppings were tasty, Crust had a good texture-not enough flavor in toe sauce. read more

Barnaby's - Mishawaka - Restaurant - Pizza Near Me - Mishawaka, Indiana

We came here for lunch/dinner Saturday. I had 1/2 lb pub burger, onion rings,white had Italian beef sandwich. And we bought a thing of chicken wings between the two of us. My hamburger was undercooked, very greasy, and just not very good. The onion rings were very undercooked and to my surprise they figured out to be a dollar an onion ring. It was $4.95 and I got 6 1/2 of them. I went back up to the lady at the counter and she said they go by weight I said I cannot believe that they are a dollar each and they are undercooked and all she said was sorry didn't offer to redo them or anything in my opinion was just not very good this time Our food came to $33.65 we had a large Coke and a glass of beer which came to $7.06 it seems a lot of money for two people just saying The sandwich my wife had was good read more

The price just isn't worth what you get. The cheese bread is odd. The Marina was like water. The pizza was good, but nothing to write home about. Definitely not willing to pay thirty bucks for two pizza's that aren't any better than a pizza at Sam's club. read more

Best pizza I have had in south bend. Not sure how this place is three stars. We always dine in. Fast service.

Everybody had been telling us since we moved to Mishawaka, IN to try this place. So New Years Eve we tried it about 3 pm to avoid any crowds. We walked in stood there for a while & weren't greeted by anyone. Sat down in a booth and waited for a while and still no one greeted us. I finally got up & went to the restroom & someone at the counter said do you need assistance? After coming back from the restroom I stopped at the counter and said is someone going to wait on us? She said it's self serve & handed me a pizza menu. We were looking for a dinner menu but decided pizza would be ok. Ordered the combination pizza with no green peppers & thin crust, got a pizza with green peppers and we don't know what kind of crust. We ate the toppings after picking out all the green peppers and left the half baked crust behind. She also told us they had the salads at half price that included tomatoes and you add the other toppings. A lot of the cherry tomatoes were spoiled so we picked them out too. When I asked for drinks I was told to go to the other end of the bar to get our order where we were met by another surely person. Ordered 2 sodas, when she started filling 2 large glasses automatically I said one of them needed to be a small & no ice on both. Both came with ice and I paid over $6.00+ for the two drinks! This place is celebrating 50 years in business & the outside and the inside look like it. Old outdated restaurant that is in serious need of an update to the property and an update in the attitude of the employees. We have been spoiled by Pagliai's Pizza in Grinnell where we lived for 46 years. They have been voted #1 in Iowa for several years for many reasons. One of which is producing a quality pizza & a GREAT dining atmosphere. Will we be back, NO! There are too many places in Mishawaka that serve a GREAT meal for a Good price and they have wait staff to serve you too. This was our first & only bad experience since we moved to Mishawaka. Everywhere else has been exceptional from the time we walk in the door. read more

A couple of Wednesdays ago I called in our pizza orders to Barnaby's on Grape Rd and spoke to a friendly young man. I was so impressed with the care he took with my orders & when we arrived it was good to see him at the counter. Alex is his name and he was as friendly & helpful in person as he was over the phone! You can't beat a great combination of DELICIOUS pizza & GREAT customer service & we find both at Barnaby's on Grape Rd in Mishawaka! read more

Been coming here since I was little. In town for my 30 year high school reunion and HAD to have some Barnaby's pizza. Never disappoints.

Great place for some great food and watching football. The prices are reasonable and it's very clean.

Terrible terrible terrible! Ordered plain large cheese pizza at 3:55. Was told it would be ready in 35 minutes. Should have been ready at 4:30. I only live 5 minutes away so I was there promptly at 4:30. Plain cheese pizza not ready. In the meantime, all these people are coming in picking up their orders! Finally I walked up to the cashier and asked how much longer and she brushed me off saying it wouldn't be much longer. 10 more minutes passed and I asked again....oh this time it was out waiting to be cut. 10 more minutes and after being ignored by the girls at the window, they decided to look. At 5:10 I finally got my pizza, got home no cheese on the pizza and it was stone cold!! This guy has been in business 50 years and he can't make a pizza. read more

Manager John could have made this experience so much better, but he didn't. Tonight we came in with out of town guests, excited to show them a great pizza and instead it was a huge disappointment We places orders for both pizza and sandwiches- the sandwich order came out ok. After 30 minutes and seeing pizzas come out that were ordered after us, we gave it 10 minutes. Then we went to the cashier, manager John came and asked if he could help. When told we placed a pizza order 40 minutes ago, he assured us it he pizza was in the oven and would be done in 10 minutes. No apology, no 'we lost your order' no accountability. 15 minutes later, our number was called and we took it to go. All of this could have been saved if manager John would have just admitted that they lost our order. So sad, especially since we were frequent customers- at least 2 times a month. And the pizza was not up to good quality. It was hastily thrown together. Very disappointed. read more

Barnaby's is my go to take out pizza and tied for the best pizza in town - Polito's deep dish, Oliva's, and Simonini Gourmet are the other best places. What makes Barnaby's unique is the crust and the chunky sausage. The sauce is spot on, not too sweet or too spicy. The cheese holds the toppings in place well. read more

By far the worst carry out experience of my life. Left 15 minutes after the order was placed. I get there wait about 15 mins and I finally get told my order was being made. So I'm standing there waiting another 30 mins for my order (mind you it's 1 SMALL pizza) just for the owner to come out get loud with me and tell me the order came in late and it's just being made. HOW. Not to mention even an employee states " this is ridiculous there are 5 people in the kitchen" not busy at all, maybe 10 people in the dining area. The place is just in general disgusting. If you could see the back kitchen area you'd be disgusted and never want to eat there again. The owner is by far careless and rude as anyone could possibly be. I will NEVER recommend anyone to attend this location. read more
