Pickle Rick's Pizza in Stockport

[Edit note: this restaurant used to be called Pickle Ricks Pizza. Name changed, but food is still great. Original review below] I'll start this by confessing I've been a victim of my own snobbishness here because I initially wrote off this place on the map because the name didn't suggest high quality food in my view. Sounded like yet another frozen pizza joint. How wrong I was! I love this place now and won't get pizza anywhere else. When I was bored by chicken shack style frozen pizza, and baulking at the price of Domino's, I set about searching for a local pizza takeout that did thin, oven fired pizza and I found Pickle Rick's again! Gave it a shot and loved it. Delivery is always on time, or you can collect easily. Or even eat in amongst the really nice decor. And the quality of the pizza is excellent, most importantly! Thin, oven fired by hand and the ingredients feel quality. I'm a ham and pineapple heathen and I love the thick ham hock and pineapple "jam" they use on the "Hamurai" pizza. I've collected just once and the staff were friendly and prioritised my order which I appreciated! I intend to go eat in when I can. So yeah definitely give this a go instead of going anywhere else! It's worth it.

Great place, amazing atmosphere with the wood fire oven in corner to see the pizza's being cooked. The staff were soo friendly and the pizzas were insanely nice. Definitely recommend to anyone who like proper pizza

Always loved this place and the pizzas. Great staff (big up Alex who served me and my friends, great customer service, super friendly) I loved the food, had to take my last slice home and take my dessert home to finish when I had room. Anyone who wants good pizza and a nice evening, get over to dough and bones, they're awesome.

Very friendly staff all around. Great food for a reasonable price.

Absolutely amazing food absolutely amazing staff one of the best restaurants I’ve been too. The staff are so friendly and attend to any needs absolutely spot on. 100/10

Order taken at 1825, no delivery by 2025

Very good pizza. Original and fresh ingredients. Everything was good and the dessert sealed a successful dinner. I recommend!

We have been too the dough and bones many times in the past and had lots of take outs also. Tonight 21/9/24 we visited on a whim got a table no problem the food was amazing best pizza ever according to our 5 year old, And I’m in agreement. The place had a lovely atmosphere great country music playing and the lady who served us was super friendly and polite she’s a credit to the place a brilliant waitress and a brilliant all round experience.

We'd tried to come here before but the place was rammed to the rafters so it was nice to find some space to eat in and rest our weary bones. Also, we were starving so 2 things happened: 1. we over ordered (more on that later) 2. forgot to take pictures of the food before we'd launched into it - it looked so delicious (and this was coming from 6 by Nico earlier!). It was kinda embarrassing because we only had a bit of each course and we were sharing and I wondered if the staff thought we didn't like it but it was actually delicious. Really tasty and massive portions! So good. Recommend. Oh and some nice beers on offer too Update: took the pizza home in a doggy box and had for lunch the next day - wow it was still delicious! Definitely recommend. Ps speaking as a man, the giant mozzarella stick gave me anxiety 😂

Amazing pizza and dough balls. They always quote over an hour or more to deliver but guess you have to wait for the best pizza around. Worth it though!

Always amazing pizza, with some wonderful make-ups, just so expensive though! But you get what you pay for.

Literally the best pizza I’ve eaten!! Delivery was super fast and the pizza fresh and hot, dips are a good size! Wedges are delicious and the house seasoning is lovely!

Was closed at 12:30 on a Sunday despite their "open all day Sunday" sign

Fantastic Birthday night out Tea with the Family at Dough and Bones in Hazel Grove. Great that they are open to eat in again. We love this place. The food is soooo fresh. Best stone Baked pizza around by far. All the food was really good. We will be back. Meetseeks is the best ! 🍕 😋

Beautiful pizzas, will order again!

Very good sized pizzas but could have done with an option of something with tuna or prawns or any seafood but none available.

Best gluten free pizza I have ever had, large table of 16 all food was bang on !!

Easily one of the best pizzas I’ve had, so so so good and service was perfect too. Highly recommend to anyone and to try out the sides too.

Incredible food, cannot fault it one bit. Roasted pineapple dip was missing, that was the only problem. Would have given 4.5* if possible because the food pretty much made up for it!

The only reason I've marked down on atmosphere is that we called in on the same night that England had played in the Euros, and we were the only ones in to start with. The staff were lovely and really efficient, the place itself is lovely and clean and the pizza was amazing. I ordered a vegetarian one with extra jalapeños and it was fabulous 👌. It was so big that I had to box up a third of it to take home (I certainly wasn't wasting it) and they don't serve their pizzas on a normal plate, they're on ,what appears to be, a silver tray!Prices are reasonable for what you get (only a pound or two dearer than the takeaway place just up the road), and the quality of the food is excellent. I'll definitely be using them again, even if it's for a takeaway, I can't recommend them highly enough.

Not sure how it takes 45 mins to cook cauliflower - it doesn’t by the way. When I arrived I could see the staff realised it wasn’t ready. I had to wait. Meanwhile staff were on mobile phones and not busy. With only one table in the restaurant. When I got home, I got an alert to say the order was ready for collection! Such a shame.

Absolutely excellent pizza and even excellenter chicken wings. Sometimes running a little behind, but only because they so popular and deservedly so!

A brilliant place to go for fresh pizza. The staff are welcoming and accommodating. The food is incredible and the vibe is great. Would definitely recommend.

Food piping hot still and restaurant really helpful when I called. Food excellent as always

Lovely place to go for dinner! The BEST buffalo Cauliflower wings I've ever had! Great vegan options for myself and also mest options for my partner. I had a vegan pizza and my partner had the Coppenheimer. Staff were lovely :)

Our first visit here, and we weren't disappointed. Although We ( my wife and I) started eating eachothers pizza, forgetting what we had ordered until my wife realised it seemed a bit spicy for her. Very good quality fresh stone baked pizza. We will return. Thank you.

Used to be called Pickle, Pickled Rick’s? A place I’d avoided because the name implied greasy stoner pizza for comic book readers. But when at a house party pizzas were delivered it turned out the food was pretty banging despite the name. It’s since been taken over by the chaps at Bun & Bones? Would assume it’s even better, but unfortunately despite the brand upgrade it’s now actually just greasy stoner pizza. The still named ‘Bee Sting’ used to be a fairly well refined honey, chilli blend on a balanced thin pizza. They kept the name but now it’s basically described as a meat feast. To be safe I went for a margarita, not good, unless you like a lot of grease. And I didn’t try the soggy wings, they went in the bin so can’t comment on what they tasted like. For two pizzas and a box of bin wings delivered it was about £45. If you want stoner pizza this is for you, if not go to the Dough boys (?) on A6 for actual pizza

Excellent pizza as always, find it difficult to order from anywhere else!

Great food ...i can recommend the mozarella 10 inch stick and buffalo chicken tenders . All vooked fresh in open kitchen on open fire oven

We came to dough and bones based off of seeing the quality of the food on Instagram. They didn't disappoint, we will be back again!

Great friendly staff ordered a pizza to take away 10/10 delicious freshly made would highly recommend would definitely go there again 😋 😀 👌👍

I'd read other reviews, and now I can see what all the fuss is about! The coppenheimer pizza was incredible! Possibly the best pizza I've ever eaten! 🤤

It's the absolute business, if you love a tasty pizza this is the place from a garlic bread that's dripping in butter to the meat heavy honey drizzled main spectacular. I think it was the waitresses first shift so she was a little slow but she got the order right and it made the busy night not feel rushed so bonus. Will definitely return.

If you want a proper pizza, this is the place to go 👌🏻👍👍

and two other friends (one vegetarian) came a couple weeks ago for dinner - WOW! i got the birdperson pizza which was soooooo flavourful, and the veggie options were many!! very generous pizza sizes so you’re always gonna walk away with tomorrow’s lunch sorted out, and i highly recommend the 10 inch mozzarella stick to witness the greatest cheese pull of all time. the staff are lovely too - 10/10!! for the vegetarians: i saw around 6 pizzas that were fully veggie (i think i saw vegan? best to call ahead to confirm) and most of the apps were veggie, and there’s the veggie wings (cauliflower) which were so yummy

First time we’ve been here after seeing it online. The food is absolutely unreal. Pizzas are next level. We will def be going back soon

What an amazing place the food is awesome the service is amazing 👏

\food was excellent as usual and the reason we order from here but the delivery was over 30 minutes late and usually we would see an update on this... but not this time.

Amazing little pizza place! Came here without a booking and glad we got there early as it got really busy, just goes to show how popular it is. We had the dough balls and mozzilla to start and they were amazing. Then the enormous pizzas arrived and safe to say it lasted me a couple more days at home! All the staff are great and it's a really friendly atmosphere, definitely recommend 👌

Hands down the best pizza I've ever eaten. I had the coppenheimer pizza with the 10" mozzarella stick to start. My partner had a GLUTEN FREE cheesey garlic bread and GLUTEN FREE bee-sting pizza both were absolutely outstanding. I tried my partners pizza had I'd have never have known it was gluten free. Service was excellent from start to finish and the cocktails we had were exceptional.

Absolutely gorgeous!!!! Top quality food! And unbelievable value for money!! The amount and quality we received was completely different to the chain take always! Definitely go again!! 👍

Absolutely delicious food! Everyone needs to try these guys. Definitely be back again soon.

Great pizza, nice delivery driver and very quick.

Over an hour late! Please give me a full refund. No apology from the restaurant

Not all our order arrived food was okay

Amazing food and a really good menu, pizza’s were top notch, staff were excellent and the wings unbeatable

One of the best pizzas we’ve had in Manchester! And great service too. Will definitely be back.

Looking good glad reopened for public great atmosphere thanks David

Fabulous pizza's, seriously the best we have ever had. Staff very friendly and engaging and go the extra mile. Clean, modern spacious dining area. Would reccommend this place to anyone

Formerly known as Pickle Rick's, it is easily the best pizza place in the Stockport area. It is a proper Neapolitan pizza base, with interesting topping combos made with high quality materials. From their standard pizzas, my favourite is the vegetarian Tinkles (with Greek feta and pesto) and Pickle Tuck - a delicious pizza that reminds you of a big Mac. Also, they have a special every week posted on their FB page. Most of them are worth it. Lastly, the wings are always excellent, especially with the hot buffalo sauce.

This is a takeaway rather than a restaurant. But, its awesome, the pizza is insanely good!

No delivery for 2 hours after and then called me to check why I hadn’t accepted delivery - then said we are sorry we actually hadn’t sent order

Absolutely unreal! Very good food, boneless were perfect!

The only place I’d order a pizza from, anyone who has anything other than good things to say about this place really doesn’t know what they are talking about. I have been ordering pizza from here for about 18 months I’ve tried everything on the menu - I haven’t been let down once, and somehow each time it just keeps getting better. The specials are crazy, the ingredient combinations are always so off the wall and work perfectly every time which means you cannot get bored of ordering pizza from here, as there is always a unique and intricately thought out topping selection for you to try. Perfect char every time, sides are second to none and the portion sizes are huge. I will be dining in soon for the full experience. 10/10 pizzas, the pickled Rick would be my death row meal.

Ordered a margherita pizza and it was fantastic. Great crust, not soggy, very well baked. Pleasantly surprised and would definitely try again. The only criticism is that it is take away/delivery only but there is not much information online, it looks closed when going past but this will soon change according to staff.

Really superb pizza, you can really tell they use top quality ingredients. Excellent service as well. 10/10 will definitely be having again

Takeaway, pizza solid and brittle - it was not good last time but thought we’d try again, wish we hadn’t :(

Great pizza good staff cool decor. Best pizza in Manchester along with Rudy's.

Such a good takeaway and suitable for vegans. There are 3 vegan pizzas as well as vegan sides and dessert. We got the cauliflower wings (amazing) and had the V-gang and Vegan bee sting - would definitely recommend!

Ordered two vegan pizzas and they may have been the best vegan pizzas I’ve ever had.

I think the name gives the wrong impression. This is very good stone baked pizza. Absolutely delicious. Gave me a free drink cos I didn't have cash on me. Mega.

I love Pickle Rick's, its the closest thing to a real napoli pizza, the bread alone is tasty but their pizzas really are top notch!!

Never had a bad experience here, 10/10 food. Tastes amazing and always hot and fresh.

We have had the Pickle Rick and Mr meat-seeks so far and been blown away. The wait for delivery has been about 1.5 hours, but certainly worth it for this quality from an independent trader. This is off the scale compared to A6 chain pizza places. Pickle Rick, keep up the excellent work 👌 🍕!

Nice pizza, great staff. Only thing it needs is more vegan options.

Always the best pizza in Stockport

Delicious! Made fresh whilst you wait with good quality ingredients. Our new favourite place. Recommended.

One of the best pizzas I've had. Just finished it and I'm already looking forward to the next one!!

Lovely pizza. So thin. Just they they should be. Defo going back again.

THIS WAS REALLY GOOD! You know when the pizza is super thin and has a perfect ratio of dough and cheese? Thats that. Vegan option as well! Recommend xxx

Pizzas are best I have ever eaten ....dough and other ingredients 5 star

Really good quality pizzas, price was on the money, and the fried cauliflower was lovely.

Need to update info as travelled here to dine in to be told it's delivery only!

First time we’ve had a takeaway from here and definitely won’t again. Ordered at 5:55pm, the food turned up at 8:05pm cold and the order was wrong. The pizzas were greasy and and most of it ended up in the bin.

This was me when I ate the Pickle Rick Pizza :3 It was EXQUISITE!!!!!

Ordered a Margherita pizza as vegetarian, arrived over half an hour late, a meat and mushroom pizza!!! They've now been in touch, apologised and sorted it.

Love all of their pizzas and of course the theme. One note i would like to add though is that i currently order from another pizza place purely because they offer 1.5L bottles of soft drink, which pickle ricks doesn't.

Pickle Rick's do the BEST pizzas ever.

Honestly one of the best pizza spots around. Get the cauliflower "wings" with the Bee Sting sauce alongside your pizza of choice and you won't regret any of it!

Certainly the most delicious pizza I have ever had, 10/10 and quite possibly among the best meals I've ever eaten. Would quite happily choose a pickle ricks pizza for my last meal

Managed stumble across Pickle Rick’s today. So glad we did! The pizza was homemade, fresh, and delicious, one of the better pizzas I’ve ever had. Now I know it’s only potato wedges, but we also had these and they were golden, crispy and so soft inside, and well seasoned, really friendly staff too. Not local to the area, but I would genuinely come back here again!

Got a bad addiction to these pizzas. Awesome place and great people too

The nicest pizza I've ever had and also the cheesecake is to die for!!!

Bit of a pain not being able to phone directly to order. Pizza was ok. Unfortunately the centre was very sloppy (which isn't for us). The steak was a bit grisly in parts. Bit disappointed after hearing amazing reviews

Best Pizza by far!! Made fresh, friendly staff.

Very good, proper Italian stonebaked pizzas with fresh toppings! The mozzarella sticks and buffalo wings were also great so top marks and definitely will be returning customer.

Very very very very good. The Beesting pizza is by far my favourite!!. It's my go to takeout every weekend and by far the best pizza I've ever had (much better than Rudy's in Manchester!!). Whenever getting a pizza I will always choose this over the likes of a pizza hut/dominos anyday - Why? Because the quality of ingredients is very good, the taste is unbelievable and I've never not had a 10/10 (ordered from here circa 40 times also). Pizza aside, the wings and mozeralla sticks are mega. Keep up the amazing work guys!

Great 'proper' stone baked style pizzas with new and different toppings/combinations. A real breath of fresh air compared to the tired greasy takeaways we've become accustomed to. The ingredients are fresh and taste great. Obviously a lot of thought, care and passion is put in to this business. Staff are really nice and delivery times aren't bad. Highly recommend!

Great pizzas with interesting toppings. Delicious! Great names for the pizzas too.

I’m Pickle Rick! Their food is absolutely Wubba Lubba Dub Dub Delicious!

This is an amazing pizza place.... Recently moved closer to the restaurant and I feel I order from hear too much 🙄😂 the pizzas are amazing, the wings are so tasty too!!! The delivery guy is super friendly too.

Closed due to the Covid restrictions but home delivery still available. Food is excellent.

Ordered takeaway from here last night. Pizza and wings were really good and tasty, loads of toppings on it too very generous not like some Places can be. Only off putting thing was the skin had been left on all of the chorizo so was like eating chewy paper had to keep spitting it out. Other than that really good would go again.

1/10, This is the only place to go for a pizza, got one last nite and ohh my days never had a pizza so good, 👍👍🍕🍕

Fast n quick service with friendly staff and delicious pizzas

SCIENTIST TURNS HIMSELF INTO A PICKLE FUNNIEST SHEET IVE EVER SEEN

I haven’t been inside (due to lockdown) but the takeaway pizza I got was great - very fresh and high quality toppings.

One of the best places to eat pizza in Greater Manchester so delicious

Great pizza but a little overpriced.

Really amazing pizza been ordering 4-5 times now and every time the same quality of ingredients makes this the best place to order your pizza in Stockport area.
