Considering I've been here well over a 100 times it is amazing, and a huge oversight, that I have yet to review this place yet. Let's remedy that right away, shall we? As many others have noted, they offer $2.50 slices on Tuesdays - and incredible deal which I have been taking advantage of weekly for years. To be clear. these slices are big - in fact they slice them in half once you order to make eating more manageable. As also noted, Tuesdays at lunch are extremely popular and I often try to show up closer to 11:45 in order to beat the rush - a strategy that is usually, although not always, successful. The staff are almost always friendly although there is nothing fancy or formal about this place. The pizza is consistently good although I cannot recommend ordering the freshest slices strongly enough. Like any pizza the heat lamps are not always its friend. When its good its among the best but when its not ... well, its just not. It appears this place is not for everyone - so I'd suggest checking it out on a Tuesday when it presents the best value - as long as you don't show up until after me. (Thanks!) As well, the owner is a really great guy - often asking after my mom or my kids and is just a generally all-around nice guy. The also offer wings and Montreal smoked meat sandwiches and such - I've tried many of them and can confirm they are all really good - if not exceptional. All in all, if you're willing to accept this place is not gourmet or pretentious you will likely enjoy it. It may not be much to look at, but good food at a great prices means that Cousin Vinny's will be my Tuesday lunch go-to for the foreseeable future! read more

north location. used to love Cousin Vinny's pizza but not lately. Always order thin crust but never get one. not sure if they know how to make it. today vegis were burnt black and crisp. not much flavour to pizza. ordered online today. website confirmed order but confirmation # blank. no email or message confirmation received. had to call in to confirm they received it. also not very good on turnaround. have to wait around for pizza order after schedule pick up time. love they are in neighbourhood but not liking the taste or service lately. read more

Never again. Horrible service. Cold pizza is what is servered, can't cut it nice and even down the middle or straight through. No noakins or straws to be found anywhere front counter. Complained on they're facebook didn't get much of an apaullogy or come on in we'll give you a hot slice on the house. read more

I am a frequent here, so much so, that every employee there somehow still recognizes me. I work a few doors down, so this is my weekly "Toonie Tuesday" Location. Tuesday is the perfect day to give this place a try, the portions are enormous. One slice there, equates to two normal slices. They are frequently fresh and out of the oven, making each slice ooze and drip with sauce. I honestly don't understand how anyone could eat pizza anywhere else. The beauty of this place, is that it's simple. It opens. It bakes pizza. Customers buy pizza. Customers are happy. End of paragraph. I would suggest that this is almost the best pizza place in the city. It is, on the other hand, the best budget pizza place in the entire city. I do hope you wander in here because you will not regret it. Just note the line is exceptionally long, with limited seating, because guess what.... It's that good... and it's that popular... and it's worth it.. read more

See all

I came here for dinner tonight. I just wanted to get some slices. When I do come here, the price point is always good for a slice. They had to heat my pizza a little longer but it was still good. I do recommend to come here on a Tuesday night, by the slice it's a great deal. read more

Cousin Vinny's - Hawaiian Pizza - Pizza Near Me - London, Ontario

I love this place, their dips that come on the sides of pizza are a good size and the pizzas taste fresh and aren't super greasy but also aren't super bread-y. They come hot and fresh and I really appreciate having a pizza place besides dominoes around :) read more

Pizza is like an episode of Buffy the Vampire slayer, even when it's bad it's good. But just like the 90s classic we all have our faves and misses. People love Stobies.. where as I can't stand it (and no... not because they never do my name for free slice). Some don't like Cousin Vinny's either but I happen to. From the thick crust to the zippy tomato sauce. Plus they don't use that weird plastic cheese that some chain stores like Pizza hut use (super stringy yes... but harmful to the gut later). For $11.50 (that's with tax) I can walk in and walk out with a large 4 topping pizza that satisfies the 'za' craving. If I just want a slice tuesday has a good deal but even regular price for a giant slice isn't so bad. Especially their straight up cheese pizza which sometimes is even better than all the topping laden ones. I think if you are downtown it's worth a shot checking out. Yes, service can be slow but to be fair most times I've been there it's only one guy working so... give him a break, you can only do so much yourself :D read more

I don't ever order anything here other than a slice, which is about a 3-Star for flavour, but when you factor in the value, especially on Tuesdays when all slices are $2.25 including tax, you really can't beat it. Some Tuesdays it does seem like they go light on the cheese in comparison to a regular day, but for $2.25, it's still a great deal. As for the comment I see on here about "rude people behind the counter" that is an experience I've never had. The guys are always friendly, even when they are busy. Have not had a rude experience, even once. **EDIT** Two things: Price has gone up .25 so it's $2.50 on Tuesdays, and Tuesdays at lunch during the school year, avoid this place like the plague. Obnoxious teenagers from the nearby high school fill the place and you won't get anywhere near the counter unless you're comfortable getting into a physical altercation with a bunch of teen punks who just don't give a damn about societal norms. They will simply ignore any semblance of a line and walk past you despite your protests. The staff seems unwilling to demand order of any kind. read more

I can't believe that the other reviewer referenced Mother's pizza! He's right - it *is* close to Mother's! I have allergies, which makes ordering pizza a bit an ordeal. Vinny's gets it right, every time. It's well-priced, and delivery is quick. They do a decent job on wings, too. For the detail-oriented, the ham is diced and the pepperoni is cut into rounds. The crust is thick. One of our family members says that the dipping sauces are tasty (me with the allergies, I don't know). read more

Pizza was given to me cold. Had to ask manager to warm it up, which is ridiculous for a pizza place. Despite the warmer pie, it still tasted very poor. Will not be returning any time soon read more

I got severe salmonella poisoning from eating pizza here, confirmed by the doctor. The pizza itself was not memorable, just basic mediocre pizza for delivery. No food could ever be worth how I felt in the week following. One of the worst experiences of my life thanks to this disgusting restaurant. It also appears they have many food safety infractions against them. It's just not safe to eat here. read more

Cannot comment on any other food other than the Montreal smoked meat sub...tons of beef, mounds of ooey-gooey cheese. Late hours read more

Cousin Vinny's - Cheesy ness! - Pizza Near Me - London, Ontario

Pretty legendary place for pizza in downtown London located right on the corner of Carling and Richmond. I usually always stop in for a slice when I'm around the downtown area, and especially if it happens to be a Tuesday lol because they have any giant pizza slice for $2.15!! But even on a regular day they're not too expensive and the size is well worth it anyways. Never ordered a whole pie yet so I can't really comment on that end but the slices are always top notch! Hot, fresh, and ready when you want some great pizza! read more

Cousin Vinny's - Yellowpages - Pizza Near Me - London, Ontario

Real hit or miss... not half as bad as Venice Pizza or London Pizza but I've still had some terrible experiences here nonetheless. I feel like the best thing about them is their slices. I've ordered panzerottis to my home only for them to be BURNED and realize the driver forgot an item, only to call and have staff scream at you. (Yeah don't ever order delivery from these guys unless you want to wait over an hour for something you didn't order) read more

I have a pretty high bar set before I'll say that a panzerotti is great, but you don't have to get much right for me to at least shrug and agree a panzerotti is passable. 45 minutes after making my order they called to ask what kind of pop I wanted... I figured this was the beginning of my terrible meal. (To be fair, they were 100% spot on with at least one thing: they told me it would be at least an hour and 15 minutes before my meal arrived and boy did they stick to that!) I suppose the least crappy thing about the pair of panzerottis I ordered for my wife and I was their presentation.... but then I picked it up. How do you fail to cook pizza dough? I mean, your ability to make and cook pizza dough is the vast majority of a PIZZA stores business is it not? Oh well, so I had to grab a knife and cut out 25% of my pizza. Then comes the first bite... not so bad. Well, if you ignore that they forgot my pineapples. 3 outta 4 ingredients; I guess 75% is a passing grade is a passing grade in many places. Let's see, poor delivery, uncooked food, and not even the order I asked for. The only thing about this meal that was not a complete disappointment was the Coca-cola. After reading the other reviews on this page, if I wanted satisfaction, I should have ordered my pizza in slices, in person, on a Tuesday. read more

Guy behind the counter was rude to me and as I was leaving called me an asshole. Told me to never come back, which I never will Customer service here is horrible read more

I ordered a huge meal on justeat.com and waited 2 hours to feed a large family get together. they did not call or email me. I called and asked if our order was sent and he tells me they cancelled my order i asked why and he didn't give me an answer so i grilled a little further and asked if i could place my order right now and then he tells me listen we dont have delivery person..... then why the heck are you on just eat? they didn't offer to compensate me or even make it then so i can pick it up......terrible way to do business i will not be going back. read more

Decent pizza after a late night shift at work. Enjoyable snack on the walk home. Pretty fresh. Crust can sometimes be a bit doughy but overall, I would say it satisfies the appetite and/or pizza cravings. read more

I'm pretty sure my taste in pizza is very different from a lot of locals but I like it here. Walk in special is $10 for a 4 topping large pizza, and the guys who work there have always been so nice. The pizza is solid, especially with the price and they don't skimp on the toppings. Since a large pizza is a bit much, I would also like to note that the pizza here reheats well. read more

Not from London. Hotel gave me a list and I picked this place. Delivery was good. Got the special pizza,wings drinks. Pizza was hot went it arrived plus flavor was great. Wings also Hot and great flavor and heat level was ok. Next time in town I will visit again! Thanks read more

Completely unsanitary! There were actual cockroach-like insects in the building, and I watched twice as the person making my pizza (and someone else) picked his teeth and scratch his nose over the product. It was disgusting. read more

Was in London for baseball tournament. Hotel front desk recommended Cousin Vinny's for pizza. Ordered 10 pizzas for team and family. They were amazing!!! None of us have ever had such hot pizza delivered. Not even ordered in a restaurant. Pizza was amazing. Service was great. Even gave us a break on the cost!! Thanks "Vinny" you make great pizza. read more

I used to go here in my days as a uwo student while waiting for the bus. Nothing can beat their toonie tuesday day deal and I swear by their bbq sauce! That sauce on the pizza was amazing. read more

Terrible service, attendant didn't even bother to warm up my slice. Dude was chatting with a friend when 3 or 4 customers came in, after the other worker asked him for help he reluctantly helped, by doing a half ass job... I'm done with that dive. read more

What the heck has happened to Vinny's? It's certainly not the same anymore, and has fallen from grace. The full size pizza's aren't all that great anymore, the slices are 'meh', and the rude people behind the counter are enough to make me go elsewhere. read more

I'm back in London visiting and we ordered delivery from Cousin Vinny's. Delivery was fast - half an hour on a Friday night! I thought the pizza needed a bit more sauce, but my husband thought it was fine. Given their usual quality, that the other diners thought it was fine, and that everything else about the pizza was perfect, I'm treating this as a fluke and still giving them 5 stars. read more

I had a slice here the other day and it was great. The crust was light but crispy on the outside and it was tasty. It was a good price too. I had the meat lovers barbecue. I ordered the meat lovers barbecue tonight for delivery. I found on the internet that they had a special for 1 large 4 topping pizza, 2 cans of pop, two pizza dips and 1 lb of wings for $21.99. With delivery and tax it was just under $28. I placed the order and was quoted a 45 minute delivery time. One hour and twenty minutes later I had my pizza, pop, wings and dips. Except, the pizza was totally different than the pizza I enjoyed in the shop. The crust was like cardboard. The toppings were the same but the crust was awful. The wings were soggy and below average. Would I order again?... For delivery, no way. But the first slice I had in the shop was good enough that I'd try dining in again. If I could break my review down in parts it would be: Eat-in slice - 4.5 stars Delivery - 1 star read more

Cousin Vinny's is the best walk-in pizza joint in London. Open late. It's not a true Cousin Vinny's pizza if you don't add the BBQ sauce. That being said I'd only get Cousin V by walk-in slice it's not as good if you get it delivered. read more

I have visited Cousin Vinny's often when I was working in the area. Their pizza is a little inconsistent. Since I go in for slices I have to order what looks fresh. Many times they have slices which have obviously sat for a long time under the heat lamps and have turned to slabs of rubber. When you do get fresh pizza from them it is delicious, the sauce is wonderful and toppings are plentiful. Buying it by the slice you get a very large piece very cheaply. The staff generally seems unhappy and not very excited, though I'm not sure I blame them! The actual restaurant is a bit shabby looking, dark, and cheap. In the summer they keep the bay door open to let light in which makes the place a little less depressing looking read more

My initial order from Cousin Vinny's (through just eat) was incorrect as I two pizzas and some of the toppings had been placed on the wrong pizza. This was no fault of theirs as the way just eat dictated my order to them on paper was confusing (I.e (1st pizza) pepperoni (2nd pizza) mushroom (1st pizza) bacon) - any cook seeing that at 2:30 am would mess up. I'm giving 5 stars because the man I spoke to at the store after went out his way to make things right and they delivered me new pizzas despite how overly hysterical I was on the phone. I'm sorry, I was hangry. You guys earned a repeat customer-only next time I will call :) read more

wednesday night, delivery took over an hour and i only live a 10 min drive from the shop. pizza was burned and so were the wings, would treat this as a one time problem but have been into the store to get a slice and received not only rudeness from the staff (and owner) but had to wait for a new pizza to be made because the owner gave my order to someone else and then was upset when I didnt want that persons order. my delivery would have been great if it wasnt burned, cold, and handed over with a "arnt you going to tip me?" read more

I found a cooked fly in my slice and they offered me a pop as if that would make it better this place is gross

Greasy pizza downtown. That pretty much sums it up. Prices aren't too bad, but it isn't cheap either. It always smells amazing when you are walking past. read more

RE: "COUSIN VINNY's Pizza" Walk into "cousin vinny's" it's what the joint is called not my actual cousin, pizzeria downtown for pizza, pay for it with tip, they put it in the oven. I'm in a hurry but don't care they continue gabbing I don't mind, just want the pizza, take it out, ask me dine-in or to-go, I'll take it like that I say don't cut it, thank them, then go to put some hot sauce on it, see that there's a short&curly on it, I'm like dude! Wth, there's hair on my pizza, he's like oh okay, put another one in the oven, I'm like NO! I want my money back, I've lost my appetite, he's like no it's ok, but it's not ok since they got the replacement slice from the same pie as the short&curly. I'm leaving, he's like no it was just a piece of cheese, oh so now I'm a liar I ask? I make my way for the door, I asked for my money back and you walked away from me, and said it was just cheese, I'm like, I know what I saw and that was not cheese, so now I'm you're making it sound like I'm liar. I was willing to keep it on the downlow if he refunded my money and apologized, but the VINNYS made me feel like a dumbass for their negligence, inconsideration, uncleanliness and stubbornness. Needless to say, he did finally offer me my money back but by that time i had already opened the door, I told him to put the money in the tip jar, I'm never going there again, pizza tasted like cardboard anyway. https://www.facebook.com/cousinvinnyspizzeria read more

on Friday night my boyfriend and I ordered the pick 3 for $18.99. We ordered a medium pizza, 2lb wings and 12 mozza sticks, we placed our order at 8:05pm, they said it would be btwn 45-50 mins. It took an hour and half and when the driver came to our door, he said it was $30.00, I told him I was not paying more than $20.00 bc he was so late and our order was only supposed to be $21.50, so he took the food back and drove away. When I called the restaurant to complain about the time and the cost the manager told me that when we ordered we had added bread sticks, which we did not, he then said that because my boyfriend had placed the order, and I had called it did not matter bc he spoke with him and not myself. The manager was very rude, had no respect. Do not order from this place ever. read more

Appalling service. Waited over two hours for a pizza and then after calling to ask if it was coming we were yelled at and hung up on repeatedly. The employee also refused to give us the number of a manager or someone else that we could talk to. We never ended up getting our pizza, but when we have in the past it has often been burnt. read more

They are so rude to customers on the phone...I ordered on Justeat.ca i got a call from them asking what toppings i wanted on my order, after i had told the guy on the phone my toppings without saying anything else he just hung up on me without a word, then when I called the store back to explain my frustration with this, the other gentleman i talked to eventually hung up on me as well. The entire time I was on the phone he had a very rude tone and did not seem to understand why hanging up on a customer is bad for business. I will not order from this company ever again. read more
