About 12years ago I would order porky’s religiously every week, moved away and haven’t had one since until tonight. DELICIOUS tastes just like how I remembered! Best pizza in South Wales! The staff are lovely & the wait time was perfect! Couldn’t recommend enough.

Never ordered from porky's and I never will again, onion rings were soggy and undercooked, chips were hard from being oven cooked and garlic bread could of done with another 5 minutes in the oven, pizza was cold and tasteless. Overall money wasted and a very bad takeaway experience. Never again

Hopeless, tried phoning for a delivery, was on and off the phone an hour. When I rung it was engaged and busy, then when not engaged no one could be bothered to answer despite once waiting at least five minutes. In the end gave up and went out and bought a supermarket pizza and put in oven. Will not use these again!

Ordered around 7 and was told the order would be with us withing the hour, which was fine. 1hr 15 later i called to chase up the order, i was told the order had just left and would be with us within 5 minutes (we live just up the road) another 15 minutes pass's, i then called and cancelled the order. Not the first time this has happened! The first time this happened i gave the benifit of the doubt even though by the time the food arrivesd it was freezing and crazy overpriced for the quality we revieved. They say support local yet i wouldn't of revieved this service from pizza hut or domino's. If you can't cope with the orders you've recieved then don't take anymore and concerntrate giving good quality and service to the customers you have!

We haven't used this business since 1994 as the food was barely warm and the pizza itself sweaty and limp with moisture. We decided this evening to try again as it must have got better since then....guess what. NO IT HASN'T !!!!! A 2 + hour wait on delivery, barely warm, sweaty pizza and sides. Bye Bye Porkies

Used to love getting a pizza from here. Never again. Took an hour and a half for a collection order! We were told an hour.. fine, but then sat outside the shop for a further 30 minutes waiting. Absolutely ridiculous. Got home and all 3 pizzas were dry and cold. That was the last

Finally managed to order from here after two months of hearing brilliant things. The delivery time was communicated well, the food turned up right on time and the driver was friendly. We had the garlic baguette, onion rings, chicken wings and the Porky's Special between two of us. The garlic bread was excellent which says a lot considering how particular I can be about it. Straight into my top three in the area. The onion rings were lovely and the chicken wings were as good as we've had them but unfortunately that's where our very high praise ends. The pizza was alright, not as incredible as we were expecting which was a bit of a disappointment. The flavours and toppings could have been stronger while hot but it was much better and the flavours came out more the next day when it had been in the fridge overnight. Saying that though, we understand why it has the reputation it has. They've been there for 33 years for a reason and for the sides alone, you should place an order. This order will be an one-off for us because the ordering process is a bit of a pain and the opening hours aren't a good fit for us but definitely give them a try regardless.

I had this pizzeria recommended to me by a local girl. Coming from Cardiff and having more choice, I didn’t fully trust her judgement on what constitutes good pizza. However, happy to report that the pizzas me and my partner received were absolutely gorgeous. Thick with toppings. Perfectly cooked. We had one Garlic Chicken and a custom build. Only one issue I would comment on was that the lady who answered the phone was very quick to state that they didn’t have any large pizzas available. As it turned out, the two nine inch pizzas we ordered, plus 4 sides was more than enough. All of this cost less than £20. Excellent value.

Porky’s Pizza is a legend of Pontypool. And rightly so! Pontypool without Porky’s is like Ant without Dec. Whenever I have ordered, I have been very pleased with what has been received. They are always upfront with how long it may take for food to be delivered, and it is very rarely late, if at all. I ring so often they’ve recognised my voice and know my address! 😅 Great food, great service.

Porkies over the years has been great but for the last few years it's a bit up and down. it's either really nice or horrible. I think most of the topping are from frozen at least they taste like they are and are not really good quality toppings like they use to be it seems like they buy iceland or farmfoods cheap frozen products for toppings. The base and sauce how ever always seem fresh

Es sin duda mi cerdito ir a lugar para pizza para llevar. No hay mejor lugar para comer pizza en esta zona, en mi opinión. Tiempos de entrega son normalmente alrededor de la marca de hora, pero obviamente he comido entregado antes o después de lo esperado en los períodos más tranquilos y más concurrido, lo que no me importa. Cuando la comida es recibido normalmente es caliente, y el orden ha sido siempre en el clavo. He ordenado desde aquí ahora por más de 15 años y siempre haciéndolo. ps. El festín de carne es mi elección cada vez! !

We love the Pizza's from here, much better than the big chains and the prices reflect the fact your buying a pizza not caviar that was once mint to be eaten off Marilyn Monroe's best bits! The toppings are prep'd on sight as well as the dough. We had lived in Pontypool for 13years before given it a go and regretted not trying it earlier. I have also tried their lunch time subs and they to are delicious and far superior to any £3 meal deal. I would have given it 5stars but the pizzas tend to be better on the weekend but maybe that has to do with how busy the ovens are or something. However that's not to say they ain't good pizzas in the week! Highly recommended 👍🏻

Staying at the nearby Premier Inn and didn't fancy what the Harvester had to offer, so asked at reception for takeaway menus. They gave me one for Porky's and it was just fabulous. Not only was the pizza beautifully cooked, it came 5 mins earlier than the time given (and he was happy to come and knock on my door rather than have me go to reception), it also came with a tub of coleslaw and another of garlic mayo - yum! oh - and the cans are chilled and cheaper than the ones in the machine in the foyer!

Ordered online. Waited well over an hour. No updates on the system just stating the time expected, that was well past. Call made our ordered had been waiting but issues with delivery drivers. Would have been at least half hour longer so we opted to collect… lots of others in the same situation as us there no real apologies given. Manager then stated that our food was cold so would need to be remade which because of all the orders in the same situation would take a long time. Was not able to get a refund there advised to contact head office for our refund. Manager stated that we could possibly get some money off our next order but I will never order from there again after this experience.can’t rate the food as we never actually received it!
