Pizza Cottage in Leicester

I have been coming here for 20 years or so. Had the odd poor experience but an apology always followed up once I made it clear on my next order. I don't know what is going at this place recently but the two girls they have just hired here haven't got a clue ! I rang through to collect my order. Was told to wait two mins for the fries. Waited around 5 mins in total. Was asked to pay £14.50 for family meal deal whereas usually I pay Around £13.50 (with delivery) because I ordered half & half !?. The poster on their wall says £13.50 and I looked at it which followed with a comment "oh the owners haven't changed it". False advertising. I get home. Which takes no more than 5 mins. Open it up and the pizza just looks Terrible. ! It's cold. Moist due to probably just sitting there on top of the oven with the other pizzas they have just readied quickly. Hardly any toppings on there. The coleslaw was practically liquid. Just a crap experience from pizza cottage and I really the owner looks at this review seriously because I do not ever write negative reviews but today really took the piss ! I rang up to complain and the girl on the front said I'm sorry. I then asked why did you ready the pizza so in advance for then to keep it cold ! She said it wasn't me it was the owner who did the pizza ? Liar. The owner wasn't even there. I won't be coming back here again unless I get a response and all those reviews prior to mine actually get actioned with some proper service and manners on the phone ...didn't even bloody know how to say please or use any manners when taking an order !

Food arrived nice and hot. Pizza have to be delivered hot. Otherwise no taste to it. Food came 15 minutes before the eta.

Everything was ok except the delivery driver did not know where we lived he was at the other end of the road which is a different road & ringing me to tell me he was outside ,when he was not.

Superb service as usual. Pizza was beaut

Half the pizza was burnt! Was not even hot enough let alone warm! Will not be ordering from here again.

Lovely pizza...Awesome. must eat...

I had the paneer tikka pizza , very tasty. The only thing I would say it needs more seasoning . Either on the base sauce or on the paneer. But I will be ordering from here again as it is good quality

Great food but was late and not as warm as it would of been if it was on time.

Loved it. Was tasty and delicious

Great food great service. Best pizzas. Hugh quality ingredients used. Love it

Just love their food....what more can I say!!

Chips where over cooked and so was the pizza, not worth the amount it cost and won't be ordering from here again.

Food delivered on time, was hot and tasty, will order again

Kids loved it but food wasnt warm when it arrived other than that gr8 :)

Very nice food as always. The pizzas are big and fierce and full of flavour.

Delicious and convenient. Delivered promptly for lunch on a rainy day.

Food was nice but a little cold ordered at 7.30pm got the food at 9.30pm

When I placing my order it said the delivery time would be around 40 to 60mins but when I placed my order it said it would be delivered 1 hour and 25mins later. On top of that the food came 25mins late. In order it took nearly 2 hours to receive my food from placing my order.

It takes over an hour for delivery which is not great but we like their food; you just have to remember to order an hour an half in advance of when you want to eat. My partner really likes their pizza and is reluctant to try other online pizza places.

Delicious! And really friendly. 100% order again.

As usual everything was perfect Al'humdulillah

Late, cold and not as ordered. Then won't answer the phone

Garlic bread was a little soggy and the pizza was dry

The service was great and the delivery driver was really nice too. The food came hot and tasted really good and fresh

Great pizza, quick delivery, fab customer service :)

Pizza cottage has been around for a long time on Evington Road. The quality of the pizza are great. This is far better then any pizza place in Leicester.

was really disappointed as i used to order all the time but last couple of visits were poor quality of food and this time is probably last time i will order. garlic bread was burnt, chewy and was bland, no taste of garlic. pizza was the worst, super bland, with even all the spices on, it tasted below average. there was hardly any tomato base sauce and the cheese did not taste fresh. the dough was thick when it was supposed to be a thin base but yet again it felt like no care went into prepping as i could only eat 1 slice and lost my appetite.

Thanks and very grateful for service & accommodating my family’s dietary requirements...🍕🍟🍔 was all delicious like always 👌

Gave me a confirmed delivery time, came one hour later. Food came, okay at least it was hot, but the ingredients of the pizza are absolutely vile.. talking about the ham here. Is it that much more expensive to get a better grade ham than this? Dog food tastes better.

Best pizzas and chicken strips

I asked for fresh base but got a old one tastes like old bread not pizza dough ...

Paid for garlic bread and chips. These were not delivered. When I rang the restaurant to order them they said they weren't on my order when they clearly were. Won't be ordering again from here!

The food came out delicious and was still piping hot . The food also came early which was fantastic and it was great service

Food came late couldnt find the house Food was average Chips and garlic bread was soggy

Food was earlier than expected. It was steaming hot and delicious. Would definitely order again.

perfect as usual, brilliant service, fantastic food

We order from pizza cottage regularly and since they’ve been taken over by new people the pizza has come under cooked, it’s happen 3 times so far despite saying please make sure it’s cooked well. Yesterday we ordered a family meal deal and ordered a thin base veg pizza and my family sat to eat soon as we picked it up it was so floppy that the toppings were falling off and after eating it half hour later my self my husband and kids had really bad stomach aches. This happen the last time and we called them an they blamed it on buying the wrong dough so it won’t cook properly. This time it happen again and we knew they’d make another excuse. It’s going down hill pizza cottage is no where like what it used to be.

Brilliant food and delivered early

Wow talk about the most rudest service, I walked into pizza cottage, and I haven’t been for a while, and to my surprise the workers are all new... cut the story short, I wasn’t even greeted, I felt more intimidated asking for chips when I was asked, the staff members had this thug walk and slang, arguing about the orders amongst themselves. It was horrible just being in there, and the food review... Chilli chips, he gave me cold chips! That’s why it took a few minutes and he just squirted sauce on top. This place has gone down hill and I will never go back.

food doesn’t taste nice chips were stale . rang to get new ones but not the point overall really bad waste of money

As much as I'd like to support a local business I can no longer tolerate the incorrect orders and the time wasted waiting for refunds. The pizza is always incorrect and then it takes forever to get a refund. Just go pizza hut or dominoes the price isn't a lot different and they will actually get your order right.

Ordered vegetarian lasagne and chips for collection. Was told it'll be 20 minutes and we went to collect it under 20 minutes. When we got home which was less than a 2 minute walk we found the lasagne was only luke warm. Which was a shame as it did taste nice. Would've been better if it had been hot. Staff were friendly and did get a free drink with the lasagne. Not sure if i would go again

Pizza and garlic bread was lovely. So was the chicken wings.

Food was nice and hot, but delivery was more then an hour after i had placed the order. App did state that, but i would have prefered a faster delivery

The food is always nice and arrives hot. fast delivery & friendly driver.

Good food, great service, can't go wrong

not happy due to leaving my jalapeño out

Pizza and lasagne was nice, the wings and chicken strippers were horrible as frozen from a packet which you can see them fry. Piri Piri chips was a dollop of sauce on top of the chips, do not expect proper piri piri chips.

Late delivery and very cold meal not happy would never order from there again

The food was for parents. They enjoyed !

Food here is always good. I asked for no sweetcorn on my pizza though, and got sweetcorn on it :( I hate sweetcorn.

Order arrived slightly late, however was only handed over 2 pizzas. The Garlic bread, chips and coleslaw was missing. I contacted the restaurant at 20.30, and was told it will be sent straight out. It's is now 20:45 at the time of writing this and I am still waiting, my pizzas are getting cold and I am losing my appetite.

Mixed salad was a mix of pineapple, cucumber, olives, tomato, lettuce and tons of sweetcorn. I asked for no sweetcorn on the pizza so was rather surprised to get such a weird salad.

Always very good. No issues ordering regularly. Very good food for what it costs compared to the big name pizza places.

OK but won't be ordering again as there are better options.

Staff not helpful at all. Forgot my fries and then came back an hour later, not cool dude.

The pizzas from here always seem to taste that bit better. They are always busy but well organised with at least three/four staff running around st peak times. They are happy to do half and half toppings also. Must try the chips with relish, yum.

Our meal was not delivered tonight - no explanation. My money has been taken. Please make refund

Lonng wait: when finally arrived pizza was dough-ee and was overloaded with too much cheese (was too string-ee). Diasapointment as regular orders from Pizza Cottage (think chef or owners changed) and will not be ordering from here again

Chips was not fresh. Everything else was good.

Stated as accepted, called an hour later to request an update and was told it was cancelled due to them "not doing deliveries at the moment" although stated delivery and marked as delivered! Poor.
