Proove in Sheffield

I’ve been here a few times and normally can’t recommend it more but had a disappointing experience tonight. It took nearly 40 minutes for us just to get our drinks and we had to ask for cutlery when our pizzas arrived. It was quite disappointing as it was supposed to be a celebration and we had prebooked a table.

I’ve wanted to try Proove for a while. Sadly, we found the experience disappointing. Despite the restaurant being far from full it took 25 mins to get a drink. The poor waitress was rushed off her feet serving the endless stream of Deliveroo drivers. Food was average. The worst Tiramisu that I’ve eaten. £65 for 3 pizzas, 3 drinks and 2 desserts. Pizza Express beats the quality of food, price and ambience. Sad times when a chain restaurant offers a better product.

Definitely the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life in Sheffield in 3 years. Friendly staff. A bit noisy though as a busy place. Difficult to hear what each other are talking about lol

Great pizzeria in the heart of Broomhill serving the most authentic Neapolitan pizza this side of Naples. Service is always first class.

Great food as usual friendly atmosphere

The food took well over an hour to arrive. When the food did arrive the order was wrong with meat on the vegetarian pizza. The situation was handled poorly. We were ignored, not offered drinks and no apology or explanation was offered for the extremely slow service.

2 visits in the last 3 week and that's it,no more Went on the recommendation of friends Food is ok to be fair when they have all the ingredients....could not have any starter which had mozzarella in it In my opinion the service is the problem,it's catered for the student population in the area We waited an age for drinks while 3 staff chatted at the till Food was all slapped on the table at the same time...starter's and mains...the small table couldn't cope

Poor service cold pizza. Overpriced mediocre at best.

Been here before and it was good. But not this time. Fresher's week impact? Ordered 2 pizzas, a garlic bread, and a garlic bread with cheese. With the two garlic breads cut up and put in the same box, we could barely tell which was which. Three of us peering into the box trying to guess which was the cheese one, there was so little cheese you couldn't tell. On the pizza, the tomato sauce had no taste, utterly tasteless. No flavour at all. The calzone pizza was OK, it had the ham to bring some flavour through, but it also came with a flavourless red dip. When we finished, someone (not me) said "well that wasn't great, was it". It was like having bread for dinner.

Last review (4 years ago) Proove Broomhill was 5 stars. Today was poor. Below standard pizza with sparing amounts of sauce and toppings. Sides arrived half way through the pizza. Not the great experience we had in the past or most recently in the city centre restaurant, which was great.

Quick midweek lunch so not very busy. Great service and excellent food.

Great evening, banging food and friendly staff

Ordered pizzas and garlic bread for delivery via Deliveroo took 2 hours to arrive! It was cold total waste of money. Spoke to the restaurant they said they had been busy. 2 hours to cook and deliver not acceptable. Won’t be ordering again!

Great pizza dough. I loved the taste of the pizza. The salad was just a very small plate

Had a pizza calzone here. The dough was nice, but then I found slices of red onion inside. Pizza with onion is my personal red flag because it overpowers all the other flavors, so you could use any subpar ingredients and the customer wouldn’t notice. Sure, you might say, 'It's your fault for not checking the ingredients on the menu!' and you'd be right. But I just wasn't expecting this betrayal. Definitely won't be going back there.

Ordered meal deals (I think that’s what they’re called here?) here for the family and enjoyed them, especially the dough bites. Although quite pricey, what you get is absolutely worth it.

The worst dough of any Pizza I've ever eaten. Avoid like the plague. Edit: This pitiful excuse for a pizzeria is now masquerading as "Lower East Side" on Deliveroo. They tricked me into thinking it was a new place, but alas, the nightmare continues. The food has NOT improved in the slightest—in fact, it might have actually gotten worse. The dough is still as dreadful as ever, the sauce tastes like it came straight out of a can, and the toppings are as bland as boiled water. I wouldn't feed this to my worst enemy. Save yourself the agony and steer clear of this culinary catastrophe.

Extremely disappointing having not been here for 5 years. Travelled 1 hour for a family meal. To be faced with an uncooked pizza, bland and after asking for it to be cooked further returned to the table the same. Customer service was very poor and not phased by the fact I was not happy. Don’t bother going here it’s horrendous.

The pizzas were amazing as always but we were the only table in on arrival and although 6 of us ordered together, 3 pizzas arrived at one time, 2 about 5 minutes later and mine was nearly 10 mins after the first ones were brought out so my friends had nearly done when I was starting to eat.

Brilliant service - friendly and welcoming. Calzone ravishing (happy to meet specific requirements). Enjoy every mouthful. Highly recommended. Very good value for money.

We visited on a Monday lunchtime and arrived just after 12pm. We were greeted by a really friendly and welcoming member of the front of house team. She was excellent and made sure we were happy with our table location. We ordered two starters, two drinks and two pizzas. Everything was great, amazing flavours, great quality dough, fresh flavours and fantastic all round. We will visit again soon.

Love this place!! The pizzas are gorgeous, haven't found another yet that matches up.

Lovely tasting pizzas with vegan options. On a Saturday it would be best to book ahead, even for lunch.

Sadly, a really poor experience. Dinners were sidelined for deliveries. We waited almost an hour for our pizzas. Tbh I should have walked outside ordered via Deliveroo and I'd have got my pizza quicker. The pizza, when it arrived was soggy, the water glasses were dirty and the staff inexperienced. Definitely won't be returning.

Great pizza place, lovely pizza, just like it should be.... really fresh ingredients, lovely staff... There's nothing not to like about this place, except that they don't permit dogs anymore so we can't go as often....

Great place, absolutely delicious 😋

This is our third visit and it is still great. Exceptional service. Calzone is the best I have had. Highly recommend

One of the best pizza spots in Sheffield. Amazing fresh flavours on a perfect thin base every time dining in or taking out, at a great price. Good veggie options and a range of drinks. Good service and you can see your pizza being made sitting at the back. Don’t miss out if you’re in Broomhill!

This is a wonderful restaurant in Broomhill. The service was fantastic—our server was kind, attentive and friendly. The staff were great with the kids, too. We had a mixture of vegan and gluten-free options. All were great. The gluten-free doughs were just as good as the regular dough. The children liked the kids’ menu, particularly the vegan vanilla ice cream! We had a 10% discount for signing up to their app. Thank you ☺️

Best pizza in Sheffield. Amazing dough and high quality ingredients for toppings. Really really good.

Ate at the Proove in city centre and was very disappointed that they have no vegetarian cheese as standard, their mozzarella is not suitable for vegetarians. The only pizza option I had was with vegan cheese or with no cheese. Vegan cheese has a very specific taste that I don't enjoy. Extremely limited menu options for vegetarians so would not recommend this as a place to eat if you are vegetarian, very disappointing and surprising for a pizza restaurant. Service was great, poor rating is purely based on terrible vegetarian options.

Dreadful service from waitresses, one in particular looked like she really did not want to be here! One of our party of four had to wait both for his starter and main both of which arrived 5 minutes after the three of us had received ours. No apology for the delay at all. Given the huge number of eating places in that area they need to train staff on how to treat customers who pay their wages. Such a shame as the food was good when it arrived.

A belated Valentine's meal on our wedding anniversary. Lovely, lively atmosphere, good service and tasty food.

Great food (beautiful pizzas, fresh salads) at very reasonable prices and very friendly services. Lunch menu highly recommended. We’ll be back with our kids next time.

We order tonight and the food was cold, they didn't give us the drinks! For pizza dolce they give us the ingredients separate.Dough bites with no sauce, just dry......I am very disappointed!!!!!

Delicious pizza, beautiful restaurant and amazing staff. Helpful, friendly and courteous. Will definitely be dining there again!

We had takeaway pizzas from here last week and they were excellent. Freshly baked in a wood fired oven, lovely base and very tasty.

Lovely ❤️ We had dough balls, pizzas and mocktails and everything was lush.

Nice pizza but waited ages to get it with no apology. When the food arrived it was staggered so we were all eating at different times. A simple apology would have put it right but absolutely nothing from the waitresses who we had to call over every time we needed serving. Nothing deducted from the bill and they still added service charge!

We were born in Italy and we’re picky about pizza but here we find our happiness everytime we come! Great pizza et not only, friendly staff and prices!

Very good pizza and friendly staff

The real authentic recipe for italian traditional pizzas. Definitely the best of the best that you can find in the whole city of Sheffield if you're looking for a unique and unforgettable full-immersion experience in the italian traditions.

Had a great time! The lunch meal is really affordable, and the dough balls and the garlic oil was to die for! Really friendly service and got to watch all the pizzas get cooked in the pizza oven which was really cool too! Definitely coming back when I have the chance :)

Great Italian restaurant in the centre of Sheffield. Great food and a great and friendly service. The restaurant is modern yet cozy and there’s also an opportunity to sit outside.The restaurant has an open kitchen so you can see how your pizza is made .

Called in on way home from trip to the Peak District, what great service food was fantastic highly recommend.

Excellent pizzas and great staff!

Maybe the best pizza I've had, great mix of very good and very enjoyable. Perfect for vegans and non vegans. 10/10

Service a bit slow and drinks very expensive, but nice food 👍

Great pizzas. Friendly staff. Not overly expensive. Restaurant on two floors. They just need to lose the cardboard boxes piled up at the corner of the downstairs bar. Spoils slightly what would be an attractive area. On a revisit this has improved. The pizzas are an impressive size.

Amazing food and service as always. Keep going back again and again!

Never disappoints. Food is fresh and very tasty. Good choice of drinks, friendly and attentive service. Have been with kids in the afternoon and fiends at night. Always a treat.

Brilliant experience at Proove on Tuesday. Exceptional service by Talia who was very attentive and helpful. Would definitely go again!

Had a lovely evening with wonderful food. The staff were amazing, Talia made us feel so welcome. The pizza was fresh and very tasty, can’t wait to come again!

Had a fabulous lunch with my daughter here today. Despite not having a reservation, we were accommodated, served promptly and definitely the best pizza I've had in a while. We'll be back!

Food was ok, had the Calzone but the cheese could have been more melted. Also, remove the service charge. Pay your staff properly and put it on the food. We’re not America. It’s tough enough to eat out at the moment without paying over for ‘service’ for someone who could very well be on more money than your customers.

Loved everything, except the vegan cheese. I'm vegetarian, and love dairy cheese. The problem is that their normal cheese isn't vegetarian. The vegan cheese was not so great, but otherwise I can't fault anything whatsoever! Would I go back? If the cheese was vegetarian.

Came in for lunch and ordered pizzas and hot drinks. Food was absolutely delicious but I had to ask for a clean cup as it was full of dust. The waitress tried to tell me it was just scratched but did bring me a clean one. They also got my order wrong and had to remake it. After this we did not complain but did not wish to pay the service charge. We told the waitress this but she still presented us with the card machine with their suggested tip included. After we asked a second time for it to he removed it was however the staff were very rude about it.

Came late on Monday night. Food arrived quickly after ordering. Probably the best calzone I’ve had. Pizzas looked amazing as well. Homemade sauces were great. Really pleasant experience. Will definitely be coming back.

Fast service. Good pizza. Nice location. Friendly staff.

We had one bad experience with proove, however due to their fantastic customer service we returned and had a lovely dinner in the restaurant - pizzas came out quickly and service was good.

food was fine barely any sauce, waitress borderline rude, music loud, bright lights and atmosphere awful

Great freshly made pizzas, simple salads and great, prompt service. Just what we needed after a long drive to Sheffield.

Unbelievably bland too expensive considering how flavorless. Balsamic vinegar was off the lowest quality too.

Nice Italian style pizza, well done, not perfect but surely high quality compared to the price

The food is amazing! We had bruschetta, pizza and cheesecake! The cheesecake was the creamiest cheesecake I've ever had, it was delicious. The service was great. Our waitress was friendly and always had a smile. The restaurant itself was warm and cozy. Lovely decor and relaxing atmosphere.

One of Sheffield’s best pizzas. I’m Italian and I have to say this pizza is great. Went with friends and the service was great

Pizza was excellent but it takes about 45 minutes to be ready

I have been here before and enjoyed everything about it. Unfortunately it seems to have turned into a Deliveroo pizza factory. Deliveroo orders seem to take precedence and we waited 90 minutes for 2 pizzas. We would have had desert and coffees but ran out of time. Various items on the menu were not available. The place was not busy as a restaurant but the staff were under pressure with takeaway pizzas. If that's the way the business is heading the management need to block off tables when the kitchen can't cope. We were not the only unhappy customers that evening.

Good food, very slow service though and the place was empty at the time. 20 mins to be asked what drinks we wanted and then sat 30 mins waiting for dessert to arrive so just got up and left. (Had already paid) But the pizzas are good. So mixed review.

Have been to Proove foryears now and absolutely love the place. The staff are friendly and most accommodating. The food is delicious. The cocktails and mocktails are refreshing and yet moorish (I can't get enough of them) Can recommend the calzone. It's a decent size so you might want to skip on the starter. Kids menu is fab, starter main and dessert. Deffo recommend. Keep up the great work 👍

I’ve been a loyal customer since day one. I’m so excited for the development in orchard square and it’s the only place that has perfected gluten free bases. It’s such a great family friendly place and my children love the kids menu which is fab value at £7 a head

Delicious pizza, probably the best cheesecake I've ever eaten. Definitely returning for an other one 🔥

Lovely Place, Food, and Staff. Very accommodating and fast with the food.

Decent pizza here and a great lunchtime deal of a pizza, side and drink for £10.90. Love the decor and music played in here and overall a nice pizza and friendly staff:) would recommend

Experienced take away Proove pizza at Art in the Gardens this weekend at their mobile takeaway pizza oven. Very disappointing pizza. Marguerita pizza had a tablespoon of tomato base and a minute amount of mozzarella cheese with a dried up basil leaf in the middle. Less than half of dough was covered. Dough quite nice although fairly tasteless and undercooked on the edge. Very disappointing. Definitely not worth £8.50!!!

Popped in for lunch yesterday. Excellent value lunch menu with good range of 10” pizza options, lovely side order of caprese salad (obviously superior quality mozzarella used) and drink, all for £10.90. Friendly service and when the pizza arrived it was sensational with delicious dough and lovely toppings. Will certainly be back again soon.

Lovely genuine pizza straight from Italy. Great taste and wonderfully presented. Good variety of drinks

Love everything about this place! They have a full vegan menu, we tried 2 of the starters, a main and a dessert, all were vegan and all were delicious! Really nice atmosphere here too and great service. The pizzas are 👌

Should’ve been a nice night out with family, but let down by poor service and inconsistent food prep. We arrived at the restaurant, which was cool despite the time of year. Ordered drinks from waitress, which included coke with no ice. Same waitress brought drinks including glass full of ice for the Coke. Asked for a glass without ice.rather than give a fresh glass, she brought back the same glass with water still in it from the ice that had been emptied. We then waited a long time for our pizzas. While we waited, there was a steady stream of pizzas going out with delivery drivers. One driver appeared to have an issue, and our waitress got involved - bearing in mind the outside temperature, and obvious draught into the restaurant where 3 tables were occupied, she thought it was a good idea to hold open the entrance door for a couple of minutes talking to the driver! We waited some more time for our order. Eventually, 2 meals arrived. So we waited. A few minutes later, a third meal arrived, at which point we were told the final meal would be a few minutes longer. Delivery pizzas and takeaway orders continued to fly from the kitchen. By the time meal four arrived the other three meals were half eaten! Oh, and meal 3 & 4 were for the same pizza, yet the first had hardly any arrabbiata sauce, and the other had so much the base was soggy. My wife’s pizza base was so tough, she couldn’t cut it with the knife provided. Oh, haha, and then they include a 10% service charge on the bill. Any restaurant that cant get an order for 4 covers to the table at the same time should not be in business. This lot don't appear to care about dine-in customers. I recommend you don't waste time and money on finding that out ☹️👎

The pizzas here are nice, but the kids menu really spoiled our lunch. We visited as a group with two young children, both ordered pepperoni pizzas. The pepperoni was so spicy it was inedible to the kids and had made the pizzas so spicy they couldn’t eat them once it had been removed. Staff were nice about it and offered to make a new pizza, but the kids were put off and didn’t want to eat anything. Whilst my friend and I enjoyed our food, we were both quite miffed that staff wouldn’t have considered warning us that the pepperoni was spicy or using mild pepperoni for the kids menu. It seemed to be a bit of an oversight and not something I’ve experienced elsewhere.

I think this is what’s wrong with franchise restaurants. You don’t get the level of care and service as you get from independent ones. Waited for half hour for food although ordered appetisers, staff assumed that we wanted all food to go together. Only after half hour staff told me that the pizza was not available… One pizza came our cutleries was not given. Only came here because they have gluten free base but otherwise would have definitely gone elsewhere! Thumbs down

It was very good food. I ate every last slice and would do it again. 10/10 place, would come again!!!!! (Dessert was good too 😎)

Relaxed atmosphere with attentive and friendly staff. Quality food, sampled the sides (inc the new options), main and dessert, can’t fault ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

It needs a little more cheese on the pizza, other than that, the pizza is great!

Excellent pizzas and I must add...great waiting staff.....attentive and the odd bit of humour added in..all in all..highly recommended!!

Wonderful pizzas and incredible service, my go to pizza spot!

Another superb GF pizza at Proove. They’ve been working on a new secret GF dough and it checks all the boxes. This place never lets you down.

Nice atmosphere and kind staff:)

Couldn't be happier to have found this place. Extremely helpful service, all dietary requirements considered and £#@ing amazing food 😁

Nice spot to eat lunch in Broomhill. Be prepared for very thinly rolled pizza (in the middle) which can end up being quite messy. Really attentive and professional service.

Always love the dough and cheese here. Very authentic. However, the topping seems less than it used to be. We always had topping reach to the edge before. A bit disappointed as the pizza edge is very thick and blank

Have been multiple times: delicious food, amazing service, lovely atmosphere. Would 100% reccomend!

Average Pizza restaurant with average pizzas. Nothing special or above and beyond. If I were to compare this with Pizza Hut, Proove would lose. The Pizzas in my opinion were substandard. The food was just Ok, and to be honest I ordered A Vesivio and it hardly had any mozzarella on it, and I was hungry and didn't want to waste time asking the waitress to add more. Summary: Food 6/10 Customer service 6/10 Overall experience 6/10

Best pizza in Sheffield! We love visiting Proove and today we collected pizza and it was equally fresh and tasty as it is when we eat in.

What an awesome find, fab food brilliant staff, just awesome 👍 1/7/23 - Still awesome 👍🍕

Had a takeaway booked to collect at 7pm. Same story as last time and they didn't start preparing until I arrived at 6.55pm. Hanging around amongst the diners and outside, it was 7.25pm when it was collected. It had been paid for when ordering. The delivery drivers seemed to be in and out meanwhile.

A bit crowded when full and also fairly noisy

Very satisfied with our order, I had olives as a starter,so tasty 😋 And my main dish was the diavalo Pizza, Nice and picant. Prove Pizza is only within 10min from the Sheffield University walking distance. Service Was friendly and very polite, and the price was affordable for everyone. Our experience in total --very satisfied. Highly recommended. Botanic garden is only about 10min walking distance from the Proove Pizza if you are fancy a relaxing walk after your meal.

Lovely atmosphere in beautiful surroundings. All the staff were polite and cheerful and quick to recommend different dishes. The pizza dough was divine and each pizza made to order. The oils to add to the pizza were delicious. Well recommended for an all round excellent meal.

Great service and atmosphere. Gluten free base was a bit gummy and dairy free cheese wasn't the best. Still tasted nice though and great that they cater for allergens.
