This rather nondescript joint on Drumcondra Road in Lower Dublin offers a surprising variety of pizzas served up by a pleasant staff. Pizza toppings range from arugula to prawns to potato to Peking duck. I ordered the Thai Chicken Pizza (Chicken marinated Thai-style in ginger & coconut milk with spinach, red onion & roasted sweet peppers on mozzarella cheese and a sweet chilli tomato sauce). It was surprisingly good. Other menu items include calzones and a variety of beverages. The establishment also offers brunch on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays from 1030-1600--a rarity in Dublin. read more

I very rarely order pizza, it's so very rarely special enough to go for I feel. But in this case, with pizza in the very name of the joint, I decided to partake!! I went for the Smokey Joe which was various meats on a bbq base. Very flavoursome, nice base and lots of delicious toppings. I've had the pastrami high line pizza before here though and would recommend it ahead of the Smokey Joe, if you're stuck between the two of them!! read more

There was an excellent deal here the day we went in: Mon-Sat 12-5pm regular pizza with two toppings. And a proper size pizza at that. Even though it was a deal, there was loads of the two toppings on it. It tasted good too. Staff were nice and helpful. I recommend. read more

Five years later I'm back to see if they have improved. Short answer is no. It's neither good or bad. Persistence of 4 stars over the years mean a lot. My three stars are more in perspective of what real Italian pizza is and what others outside Italy can replicate. Pizza is 6-7/10 here compared to best pizzas I've tasted. Disappointment comes from service and food taste. First of all I have no clue why they don't serve pizzas with sauces (chilli olive oil, chilli, ketchup etc.). You must ask for it to be brought to you. Second disappointment is extra charge for additional topping. I asked to have extra jalapeños and chilli on already spicy pizza with these ingredients. I had to pay €2.40 on top of €10.45. A 20% fee for a few extra pieces of vegetables. This is why I didn't leave tips. €2.40 was my tip FYI. Staff and service is great. Very nice even during busiest times. I'm sorry, but food is primary thing that would make me return here for the 3rd time. There're better pizzerias in Dublin, already been in few. Good luck and hope you improve. read more

I'm definitely a fan....love this place. The service is usually great and the options for pizza are plenty. Today i decided on the lunch menu....a BBQ pulled pork sandwich with fries. It was amazing and only €7.50...bargain. I love the relaxed atmosphere, never felt hurried...even when the place is so busy. Would definitely recommend. read more

I have to say they definitely don't scrimp on the pizza toppings! I ordered the prawn pizza with corgettes, red onion and garlic and although it was the regular it was plenty and delicious. Couldn't have managed the large one. The sweet potato cubes too were nice with a garlic dip. Yes I like my garlic. The decor has been spruced up lately and I like that they have put in more booths. The same pictures of time magazine with the stars still adorn the walls. The only slight problem was that the seats on the booths were quite high meaning my legs were dangling like a child's. But still definitely my favourite place for pizza in Dublin. read more

The Guacamole with tortillas (or something) was nothing spectacular... but the pizza was GREAT. Pulled pork in a pizza was daring and surprisingly good, with creme fraiche and bbq sauce, very nice, tasty, yummy, I have to come back to try new pizzas. PS. All the place is filled with Rolling Stone covers (the magazine, not the band) hanging in the walls. It´s fine. read more

We've always been coming here and have never been disappointed. If anyone is thinking of coming down make sure you book a table cause this place fills up fairly quickly. I'd recommend the smoky joe pizza, out of this world. They don't deliver put I don't mind that... Well worth the travel. They have a new menu so I'm trying the new pulled pork pizza. Will let you all know what it's like :-) read more

This place is great. I'm an avid fan! The food is excellent and is reasonably priced. You can eat in the restaurant or call up for collection. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is good too. The soft drinks aren't too pricey either which makes a pleasant change from other restaurants. Heres's a link to the menu http://www.menupages.ie/dublin/north_dublin/drumcondra/independent_pizza_co/menu.aspx Enjoy! read more

Had a pizza to take away from there after helping mates paint their new house around the corner so was ravenously hungry, come dinner time I got the Texan Chicken which was lurrrvely - good quality toppings and tasted amazing. They also provided a dip pot of cream cheese for the crust which was nice but was a bit bland, could maybe incorporate a bit of garlic / herb flavour in it? Definitely a thumbs up from Timmy. read more

Have been coming here for years and I love, love this place!! They have the best pizza in Dublin, stonebaked, thin crust and with a multitude of varieties and toppings available. The service is fantastic and the prices are excellent - watch out for the Early bird at €15.95 - it's an absolute winner. You have to get the coleslaw and have it with your pizza (sounds crazy but it's soooo good). The vanilla Philly cheesecake they do is also really yummy - nice and simple but always delicious. Come for the pizza and you'll be back because of the prices, service and general awesomeness!! read more

I'm from Chicago. I enjoy pizza a great deal. Correction I love pizza. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our first visit here and it soon after led to the second 5 days later. Both times we ordered the thai chicken pizza. I know, we should have tried something different but it was such a unique pizza we wanted to experience it again. Each visit also was enhanced with a carafe of Pinot Noir. The second visit was capped off with dessert. I had the chocolate cake with ice cream and my wife have the sticky toffee pudding. Both were good. They also have friendly service here. This was our first experience(possibly only) of pizza in Ireland, and it was a memorable one. read more

Ate here for the first time on my last trip to Dublin with my family. We ordered 4 small pizzas to try some of the unique variety of pizzas that they offer. The Tribeca Prawn Pizza was delicious and had just the right amount of spice that balanced out the entire pizza. Both the Margarita and Mozzarella pizza were ok, but nothing that stood out compared to any other pizza places. Unfortunately, the Highline Pastrami Pizza was overly greasy and had way too much mustard sauce for our liking. The service was a bit lackluster since we went at prime dinner time as well. read more

I am a pizza fan. Like serious pizza fan. If there was only one food I could eat for the rest of my life, it'd probably be pizza. & this place is one of the reasons why I think that. Their imagination and flavours are second to none!! I would love to give them 5 stars but if I'm being totally honest the quality is surpassed by other pizza places in the city & it's really only their imagination that pushes them out of the 3 star range - that being said I cannot over emphasise how much you need to go & order something unusual - don't just get a standard flavour that you're used to. I recommend the Hoisin Duck pizza. Delish. Also, the décor in this place is fantastic! read more

Probably the best pizza in dublin! The staff are so friendly and cheerful and not overly attentive to the point where they're asking are you ok when you have a full mouth. It's worth the price especially when it comes to dessert. Great place to go on date night read more

Great local eatery with delicious salads and pizza. The early bird is a steal at €15.95 for two courses. Often really busy during the week so if you are planning a trip definitely call Ahead and make a reservation. I would avoid going here if there are any events in Croke Park because it's obviously mayhem trying to get parking etc (Unless you are attending said event yourself then drop in for delicious eats) read more

Newly refurbished and a serious improvement on how the interior was previously. Has a cool New York vibe now. The good news is the pizza still as awesome as ever. We had 2 pizzas, wine & dessert for €50. Well worth it, seriously stuffed afterwards. Might be dangerous that this little gem is a 3 minute walk from my apartment!!!!! read more

Ate here yesterday for the first time. I had the nachos to start which were decent enough. Had the special pizza for main which was pretty good. Service was good and friendly. We ordered off the main menu but in hindsight we should have had the early bird as it looked good value at €15 for two courses. Definitely go back. read more

I would definitely give this 5 stars, myself and three of my children book a table for a certain time, got served straight away, weren't waiting long for food, was very hot just right, wasn't a crumb left on our plates, portions were perfect, and the desert was delicious and left with our bellys full and prices were very resonable, I would definitely go back again my new hot spot for myself , friends and family and services was very good read more

For years now I've been a fan of Independent pizza company and their sister shop the Gotham Cafe. They are about one of the very few pizzerias in Dublin who know how to make the classic, thin and crispy yet chewy pizza base with a great range of pizza toppings. I particularly like the bacon, olives and spinach combo. They also offer a range of pasta and salad dishes. read more

Best sit down Pizza on the northside. Sadly we're not exactly spoiled for choice in the the D9, D11 area, and even if we were try beat Indo pizza at your pearl. Not a bargain piece of bread, but no rip off Either. Don't say you haven't been recommended! read more

Really disappointed with the food here. Pizza was tasteless and dry. Friendly service but let down by the tasteless food. It tasted like they forgot to put on tomato base on the pizza. A real pity because I have been a customer since it opened in 1984 but I think it's time to find a new pizza joint read more

One of my favorite spots to eat. I particularly like the guacamole starter but they give less dip now then they use too. The lasagna is yum. The pizzas are great and brilliant range of toppings. They've added chips to the menu but they're surprisingly not great! Frozen chips at best. Very disappointed with those when I first got them so never again! Stick with the wedges or baby potatoes. Great value tasty food. read more

Awesome, great food, nice prices and friendly staff. Can honestly say I have never had a bad meal here. Not much to add really,

Pizza was just okay. It's definitely not something we will crave but it worked as a simple meal. Not sure if we will go back.

Best Pizza in Dublin. We always go hear for family celebrations. The service is great, the staff are lovely, always welcoming and the food never disappoints. Good value for money. read more

Look - it's an institution, still maintaining standards after many many years, and modestly priced. Really good pizzas, something for everyone, takeaway or eat-in. Long may they run!! read more

Nice to be able to drop into a nice pizza eatery nearby without hassle of the city centre. Great food and staff and nice setting, will return soon. read more

In my opinion it's the nicest pizza in town just beats di fontaine's by having better select of sauces for the base of pizzas

This place has it all; a great selection of pizzas, wines, chicken wings, and deserts. The staff are tolerable, and the atmosphere pleasant. This will not break the bank! Try the chicken fajita pizza with guacamole and the cheesecake for desert. Divine. read more

Located in Drumcondra, close to Croke Park is this little gem of a pizza place. Although the pizzas are to die for, the food menu is not confined solely to pizza as there is a great range of food, including meat and fish. Their wine meny is great and the atmosphere is simple and unpretentious. A great place for a quiet night out or equally a night out with a group of friends! read more

One of a very few good pizza places in Ireland. The staff here are terrific particularly with my two year old daughter who loves to go here. It's almost certainly the best pizza I've had in Ireland. read more

Delicious!!! The early bird dinner is great value. €15 gets you 2 courses and a drink. Pizzas are incredibly fresh and SO yummy. Dessert was such a generous portion, we almost couldn't finish them... almost! Service was friendly, fast and efficient. Will be visiting again for sure! read more

I love this place, the decor is great and always something interesting to look at. Im addicted to their sweet chilli bread and sweet potato fries. Staff have always been friendly and service is great. Great value for money too! read more

Yum! Yum! Yum! Pizza was awesome. My husband and I had a tiny table tucked in the corner right in front of the chefs. It was comfortable and cozy. Brooklyn brewery lager hit the spot and the prawn starter was amazing! I would eat it right now if I could. read more

4 and a half stars for this one. I couldn't fault my meal, garlic prawns for starters and Italian pizza for mains and finishing off with the strawberry cheese cake. Yum. My boyfriend however, didn't like the wings for his starter. The BBQ sauce Just didn't do it for him, hence the half star knocked off. Other then the wings, nothing could be faulted. read more

Really good food, really quick service and nice staff

Always loved their pizzas. Excellent flavour and not the greasy cheap cheeses of other take aways. However the last few times I have ordered take away the toppings are kinda scarce and not what they used to be read more
