Silver Dollar Pizza in Harrow

I first went to the Silver Dollar in 1971, it was brilliant then and it's still brilliant now. To maintain top quality for all that time is fantastic.

Been going here since the early 70s and still the best pizzas

Honestly this place is overrated. They sell thin "American style" pizza. Its a bit weird do be honest. Thin with a layer off thin toppings. I got takeaway and it was so thin it kinda moved around the box. I've eaten inside aswell and they have there own unique style of serving the pizza I've never seen. On weird sort of raised stands. To be honest i don't know if its just a normal American style pizza so possible I'm just more used to European pizzas. I give them 3 stars as the cheese they used was fairly nice although i feel like I didn't get much for the cost. I would definitely suggest other Italian places.

Best pizza in Harrow, local unassuming restaurant in Rayners Lane with a super nostalgic interior. I remember coming here when I was little and looking at the pictures on the wall with the delicious smell of pizza in the air. Super unique style and all family run, I hope it stays open for many many years to come.

I cant believe all the good reviews. This was the worst pizza I've ever tasted!. Arrived cold and the base was too paper thin to hold the ingredients. Pizza only comes with a choice of one topping, i chose red onions which were mostly raw on the top and at £14 for a small pizza...this was totally overpriced for what you get. The cheesy garlic bread was laughable!...a burnt huge doorstopper slice of bread with a ton of cheese melted on it about 4 inches thick. Sorry but won't be buying from here ever again.

My dad first brought a takeaway home from Silver Dollar in 1977 and it was love at first slice. I have since moved away and currently live in Spain but when I visit the UK my first thought is to go to Silver Dollar, even if it involves a 2 hour drive or more. It is simply the best pizza in the world, pizza as it is meant to be, with none of the ghastly aberrations of ALL the chain restaurants, whose product is dreadfully second rate in comparison. I always come in and order and wait to take the order away, which is the only way to ensure you get it quick and hot! The decor is unchanged since the 70s and totally authentic, the menu is simple and while at first glance the food might appear pricey, it is worth every penny as you are buying the best there is. My daughter is now the third generation of my family who love this place and I hope it continues for many many years, I read the negative reviews and question whether the authors have even been to the same place I have! Just hearing the words 'Silver Dollar' is enough to make my mouth water in anticipation.... you simply haven't eaten pizza until you have been here.

cheese and toppings had all slid off into the box making the outside of the crust all soggy. Have had better from here previously.

Awful service. The two Eastern European waitresses were SO rude. The tall one was disgustingly rude, started shouting at us and slammed the door on our face as we left, all because we didn’t feel they deserved the service.

Awful service and extremely aggressive staff. We were late for our table and it was shocking at the rude behaviour that we got from the staff considering that the whole restaurant was empty anyway so made no difference to them. And the service overall was aggressive and rude and very unhelpful and unfriendly and not accommodating with the menu changes at all. When we refuse to pay the service charge the slimmer tall lady started shouting at us and telling us this was part of the bill and that we had to pay. When we were leaving the two women who worked there both slammed the door behind us and told us never to come back. Food wasn't exactly great it was average and nothing special and not many toppings and to get any added toppings on you had to pay extra and the standard pizza only came with just one topping

Went after 40 years. We just live around the corner. Yes, the food is still good.

I paid.for extra filling and it was not added and it was burnt.

Very rude staff. No service. Looks like their boss doesn’t pay them enough as they shout at you if you ask to reduce tip when they do not deserve it ! In the past they told me tip doesn’t go to them so we have paid them 15-20% tip as cash in hand. But yesterday they really did not provide good service so I asked them to reduce tip by £10 on a £240 bill but they got rude and angry !! They need to understand that tip is optional in uk!! They told me I was taking their wage away ! The owner really needs to address this and their rude attitude. Go there if you want hostile unfriendly service, like you are doing them a favour by being there - I certainly will not be going back whilst they are there!

S The food is good. Attitude of staff is so bad. Never celebrate a birthday or anything there. They will ruin your evening with grumpy attitude like you are doing them a favour my going there. They don’t come around to ask if everything is ok, you have to go and ask if you want anything and on top of that they charge a big service charge. If you say you want to reduce it they will start arguing with you. In the past they have told me that the service goes to their boss and not to them, so we used to give them cash in hand, typically 15% of the bill in their hand as cash. Today they said we are changing this and because I said I want to reduce service charge as service was not great on my birthday, they were literally shouting and being rude. They don’t even own the place, and they act like you are taking their salary away !! They told me that this is being recorded. I plead the owner to watch the video and watch them previously taking cash from us and watch the one today of the level of service they provided !!! It’s not done and no acknowledgement of your custom or your celebration. I’m a regular but will not be going there again unless they change their rude staff !

This place is the best pizza place in NW London. Pizzas that melt in the mouth with delicious toppings. Fresh ingredients used with a full menu of sides and extras including garlic bread, regular and sweet fries, feta salads and so much more. Amazing staff, friendly and welcoming always. Have never gone to any other Pizza place than Silver Dollar. Have a seen people come from as far as Surrey to dine here!!!! Highly recommended, suitable for friends and family gatherings 🍕

Did a blind person make this pizza. It was foul. I can make pizza from tortilla wraps at home. 😐

Great place, really accommodating with kids, had it after a few years, food is still great nothing has changed.

Really thin, amazingly fresh, and deliciously tasty pizza. Has been recommended by friends and meaning to go for a few years now. Ordered it home once but no where near the same. If you like thin crust, with fresh ingredients then get down here A.S.A.P!!

The best Pizza in the UK, thin crispy American style pizza. This pizzeria has been around for over 60 years, family run and isn't a fancy place but you absolutely will not be disappointed with your pizza.

Such good pizza , decently priced and great drinks

This is the best Pizza and Staff in North london . Been coming here for many years . Must try

I had my first ‘Silver Dollar’ Pizza back in 1980 and have been coming back ever since even after years gone by. The decor and food quality is still the same. A family run pizzeria still run by the same family and their secret recipes. Highly recommended. Their Pizza are So Large and so Good🫶🏻

Ordered a pizza and 3 sides - all brought and eaten in 45 minutes. Great service and the best thin crispy pizza

The pizzas were really good, our sides were forgotten about, it's super tight spaced, we went as a family of 8, squished up against other diners, wouldn't be very comfortable for bigger people. Was a nice place, if only it had more space to accommodate the amount of people dining

Pedi una pizza sinceramente muy cara para su estado la pizza le faltaba un trozo de un triangulo i parecia mojada i roñosa

Great tasting pizza. It was so amazing that I had to order again within an hour.

We have been dining here for over 50 years and now we live 75 miles away we still love to visit when we can. The pizza’s are still as delicious as ever and cannot be beaten! Staff are very friendly and the prices are still very reasonable.

The delivery was just within the timescales which had been pushed back. The pizza was just warm when arrived.

The pizzas here are are so delicious. The service here is amazing too! Would definitely recommend!

Exceptional thin and crispy pizza. Nostalgic atmosphere of a restaurant that seems frozen in time.

Good Pizza base, not enough pizza sauce poor quality, no cheese, poor quality Bacon.

The boy with big glasses that sit on his face chef must know how to please the customers, amazing quality and service

Rubbish pizza, staff were hostile and not accomodating and forced us to buy more. I would not recommend it. Decor is very old and not pleasant at all

What a great find. Yes the decor is a bit tired but it does add a little character to the place. The wait staff are very polite and friendly. The food is excellent. Will be going back again and again for sure. This place is a little gem and understandable why it has been there for so many decades. Thank you Nick and team.

The best pizza in the world, without a doubt, we have been visiting for years and it is our must visit on vacation

It's like all the Kenyan Indians in north west London love this place. Thin crispy pizza! Really can't go wrong! Book ahead especially on a Sunday.

Still the best pizza around, nice and crispy but takeaway never as good as having it fresh at the restaurant, they will heat it up again for you as the pizza gets cold half way through the eight slices so I always ask them please can you put back in the oven, they never mind doing this for customers.

I went with my family two weeks ago... A day before our flight / holiday to Kenya and 3 out of 4 of us got severe food poisoning. We were the three to eat their Greek salad. My dad was hospitalised for a week and I could barely make my flight. I really feel like their food hygiene must be low and that salad didn't even look that good but we ate it because we did not want to waste food. I really regret going there....we used to go there a lot and decided to go this year as we had not been but never ever again! I think they need to be checked for food hygiene asap!

Anyone who likes this place need their head checked. Disgusting food, people serving in smelly tracksuits and slow service. There are a tonne of places doing much better pizza for cheaper.

Best thin crispy pizza. Have been visiting since a young age. They have kept their consistency, and best part original decoration. Favourite pizza, Mexican with garlic.

Absolutely trash you can make a better pizza at home. This is nowhere near a New York pizza it’s more an Italian stone baked pizza than anything. Super overpriced too for what it is

Useless and miserable staff who won't do their job and lie Poor value yukky pizzas - under or over cooked, bland Dusty and sticky could do with a clean

Wow....The decline of this place is shocking. We used to like coming here and we could tolerate the poor customer service as the pizzas were quite nice but even the pizzas are very poor now- too hard and tasteless. I'm not surprised to see other recent bad reviews regarding the staff and poor customer service. Both the man and the lady here are very rude and unwelcoming. Would definitely not recommend Silver dollar

Amazing experience of pizza after ages.. yummiest garlic bread and the crust of pizza was amazing and also the service was mind blowing

This was best friends local and we had many good nights here. He passed away in the 1990’s. This was my first return some 30 years later. Still the same joint locked in time, with its quirky history, serving beautifully prepared pizza’s. They were fully booked but accommodated us. Very good value. Shame we are so far away to make it our local.

Favourite pizza, going for years and it's always great... Not typical high street pizza or Neapolitan style, unique and delicious. Great customer service, fast and friendly.

I have always liked the pizzas here, it's top-notch. And it's always nice to support a small business, so don't mind the higher prices. But the hostess needs to learn how to talk to her customers. She is so arrogant and unwelcoming. I ordered a takeaway with sweet potato fries and just requested a bit of ketchup. She said she has to charge for it, new policy from new year. And quite unnecessarily adds " we don't get it for free, you know". I didn't even ask why! The other staff are completely nice! Sorry to say not going back there.

The customer service is very bad, the lady with short hair was very rude and aggressive towards us

Good garlic bread but garlic mushrooms seemed reheated and expensive for the portion size. No atmosphere, we were the only diners and staff were not interested in any conversation.

My order was missing items and I would like a refund for those

Horrible place with terrible customer service. Ordered via uber eats. Recieved our order of 2 pizza, garlic bread (if you can call it that) and chips. Opened up the pizza to find a hair. Called up and the first thing they said is they don't have anyone in the kitchen with short black hair. Then said if we want another pizza we have to come to the restaurant even though we ordered delivery. Or next time we order we will get credit... there won't be a next time! Then they proceeded to say that finding hair happens we all have hair on our heads. Disgusting customer service and hygeine standards. Lady on the phone shouting at me for complaning about hair in my food. Will be reporting to uber eats as this is not acceptable. The garlic bread if you can call it that.. is literally a thick slice of bread. Avoid going here unless you want to be disappointed!!

We have been coming here as a family for almost 20 years and would really recommend anyone to come and have the pizzas. They are their own special category, not a classic New York slice/Italian/sourdough or anything apart from silver dollar pizzas. I felt compelled to leave this review as my family will be leaving the area soon so I’m not sure when I’ll next be back and I want to try to ensure silver dollar will still be here in another 20 years. I recommend the silver dollar special, the garlic (amazing never had anything like it anywhere else) anchovies or the vegetarian. Thin, crispy and really good toppings. Plus the place has an interesting history to read on the menus.

Food arrived on time very pleased with pizza

I am sorry to have to leave a bad review for a small business, but our visit to Silver Dollar tonight was bad from start to finish. The hostess was rude and uninviting. We were the ONLY people in the restaurant at 5:30pm, however she told us they were very busy with take-away orders and it would be a longer wait for our pizza. We proceeded to wait while watching delivery person after person come in and out for take away orders, while we --- the only people actually seated in the restaurant-- continued not to be served. The pizza is nothing close to New York style pizza (I know, I am from NYC). In fact, it is hard to call this pizza at all. It is like tomato sauce and cheese on top of a cream cracker. Anything with garlic had way too much garlic (and I love garlic!). We paid £77 for 4 bad pizzas and bad service. It is a ashame, because we have been to Silver Dollar before several years ago and we remembered it being a really good experience and really good pizza. Sadly, I can no longer say that and we will not be going back.

I’m not sure if this is still owned and run by the original owners. The staff - 3 women were all Eastern European, one even making the pizza. There was no Mr. Nick to be seen. The pizza lacked flavour, the base is beautiful but the sauce had no taste to it at all. Service is lack lustred, no attentive customer service, saw 2 of the woman just sitting there on their phones. Only way to get attention was to call them over. It’s a shame as we have been before when I assume Mr. Nick was there and the pizza was awesome. Unfortunately we’ll never be returning nor recommending this place to anyone.

Having not been to this restaurant since 2005, we decided to give it a try two weeks ago. To our surprise nothing much has changed - the pizzas are still as delicious as they were then and the service is still very slow. Bit pricey for what you get but everything has gone up in price.

Love the pizza, the kataifi was excellent too😋

Avoid this place.. horrible Pizza.. uncooked toppings... overly priced... The owner was really rude...

The pizza was delivered quickly but was strangely cold despite living 5 mins away - didn’t not seem to be cranky made and the salad ordered missing.

Really nice thin pizza crispy pizza

My family and I spent over £100 on a takeaway order, we asked them to repeat the order on speaker phone so everyone could check their order. The pizza we received was incorrect, so we called them to let them know, and they shouted at us down the phone, calling us liars and then hung up. I have never been so appalled at such awful customer service. Will never be ordering from here again. Will also be telling everyone I know how awful these people are.

Ordered 7 pizzas, we asked for extra garlic on all pizzas. They only gave us two pizzas with extra garlic. We paid over £100 for this order. The staff are extremely rude and had the nerve to tell us we ‘lied’ about our order. We had six other people who heard the order. Ridiculous service.

The customer service here is appalling - they messed up our order and the lady had the nerve to tell us we ‘lied’ about our order. Extremely rude staff who shouted when we tried to explain to them why our order was wrong. Kept hanging up on us when we tried to call back.

I've returned after an absence of over 30 years! Glad to see the Silver Dollar Pizza's as good as it was back then. The friendly serving staff make it an enjoyable experience. Will try and visit regularly.

Polite driver - very refreshing ! Pizza was cold

I first visited the Silver Dollar back in the 1960's, its always been our go-to pizza place when were in the area, same décor and murals on the wall from the early days....Nostalgic! - Thin based super toppings - Go for the Silver Dollar Special, its been my favourite for more than 55 years and still ticks the box!

Best pizza I have had in a long time lovley

This place does amazing thin and crispy pizzas. Best ever. If you like that style of pizza you will be a fan. The restaurant itself is very average which is why we get delivery.

Good spicy Mexican pizza but too pricey need to reduce their prices

Arrived early but was ok food was hot

Never, ever had a bad meal here. Always been the best and my favourite pizza place. The special is exactly as the name describes. I have taken my children there, and now take my grand children there. The best.

If you didn't try their pizza means you never had a good pizza.

It was ok. I was expecting better pizza. It's a small place and quite pricey. Good service.

Food is terrible and the drinks are 50p beers from Asda and you pay £4 for the joy of such a quality beverage.

Heard so much about this place however I was very disappointed the pizza was so salty, really greasy. The wings has literally no flavour

Ordered 2 pizzas freshly cooked and delicious. Would definitely recommend.

food and delivery is good but not much option on line so could not add other topping as we did while at the restaurant. garlic bread was just 1 thick slice of bread with a hint of garlic and butter not empress but pizza yummy but no options on topping like green chilli ects or extra cheese but go and eat at the restaurant .

Far to expensive for the lack of quality and quantity not what i expected , its a shame because Silver Dollar has been around for decades.

Have been visiting for probably 20 plus years as a kid. New owners seem lovely. Exactly as I always remember! I think some of the recent bad reviews are down to deliveroo not the actual shop. I'm sure they leave pristine. I always collect so never an issue for me Thumbs up

Best pizza you will ever taste. Have been going there for for over thirty years and still tastes great

Excellent service. Waitress Jessica was particularly lovely.

Happy as always with my pizza!

Love these very thin pizzas, especially the chilly and hot pepper ones, not for the faint hearted. Their vegetarian is also delicious. Been going to SDollar for over 40 years We order one at a time and share between 2 to 4 people. Ghey can do 2 different halves also. We usually tell them all our order and they manage the supply reasonably well. Under covid lockdown we have been eating in our car parked outside.

Total waste of Money the vegetables was not even cooked properly they tasted raw. The dough was raw too gravy was not tasty and there was no cheese at all never again

Agree with another review, not really a NY pizza, but tasty nonetheless. Would certainly have again. See pics, olive pizza with jalapenos+ pepperoni and a silver dollar. I would ask to make it easier to customise pizza on delivery services.

I am very disappointed with silver dollar pizza which was recommended by friends. This is what was delivered to our home and we contacted the restaurant to see if we could get another one and they said no. We ordered one of the pizza’s directly through silver dollar (the other Deliveroo - as we had to amend via phone), and Angus the manager was absolutely rude. I am disappointed in her service and she said she would keep my money as ‘she did me a favour’ adding another pizza. To add, the messed up pizza was cold, curled up like it had been dropped on the floor! I will not be ordering again and recommend it after the poor quality of food, no apology or ability to make things right by the rude manager!

Worth the slight wait; it was very tasty! Could have done with a bit more salad though.,

Amazing Pizza . Authentic and true to the brand . Three cheers for the folks at Silver Dollar . Cheers

An institution. Best pizza in Rayners Lane.

My first time in this shoddy , overpriced cafe. The pizza was very average with vegetables sprinkled almost raw on top. The prices were like expensive pizza restaurants and service awful. To top it all they charge service charge for the rude, unfriendly service. ( made a face when I asked for an extra wine glass) Don’t waste your money or time going to this place. How has it got 4 star is beyond my understanding ?????

My first time in this shoddy , overpriced cafe. The pizza was very average with vegetables sprinkled almost raw on top. The prices were like expensive pizza restaurants and service awful. To top it all they charge service charge for the rude and awful staff. Not one person smiled in there. Have no idea why this place has 4 stars. Never again.

Having booked a table for 3 a week before during the government eat out scheme, we arrived at the restaurant sharp 6.30 pm as per the booking. We were asked to wait outside and it had started raining.I was asked for the name and booking details. The staff brought the book and could not find our booking so went to ask the owner. The owner came with the book and told us someone called and cancelled our booking and she could not do anything about it. We tried to say why would we do that and she was not willing to listen. The restaurant may have cheekily cancelled our booking if they had shortage of tables. Never again shall we go there. Worst customer service..

Best Pizza in town and good customer service. We often order pizza for collection and they are always very accommodating and do half and half pizzas if requested

The Pizzas were lukewarm, and did not look anything like the picture used to advertise. That aside, they were quite nice

Just Eat service was first class.

This driver went to different places after food is ready. Food get cold. Really bad driver.

The menu could do with more description of the items or ingredients

Really nice tasty pizzas, cozy atmosphere and very good service

An all time favourite. Certainly the best pizza in town, particularly if you're a fan of thin bases. Giving 4 star only because sadly, it is not the same as it used to be over 5 years ago.

Very bad and poor customer service

I went with my Family tonight and everything was wrong,,,,,,,, menu on a4 paper stap together,,,,,not clean as I expected from past,,,,,,and how can you serve a pizza at that price and get it wrong. Its cheese on toast FFS. Never again and I was embarressed paying,,,,, should of just walked out. Shame that a good restaurant has gone to the dogs.Facebooked to let people know what a rip off and a sham it is now.
