Square - Slices & Pies in Newcastle upon Tyne

Discovered these at the Slice Wars pizza festival the other day where they were serving pizza near the brewery. I loved their Detroit style pizza so much that I went to their restaurant for more the very next day! Spend around £20 and got four big squares of pizza to take home and share with a delicious garlic mayo dip. Would defo recommend 😁🍕

Great pizza if you love deep pan. You can turn up and eat in cafe style or take out. Well worth a try!

Took the kids into Newcastle, especially to come to this place after being recommended by a chef. Fantastic pizza so glad we came. Thank you!

First time visiting square, service top notch biggest plus friendly accommodating and they welcomed our dog got him a plate of cheese as a snack while he waited for our pizza 🥰, food unreal left 3 hours ago still thinking about it (half and half pep and Clancy) it was filling but somehow light 100% will be back

Food is nice but it is dramatically over priced. I think the quality has dipped over the last year or so also.

Fab Detroit style pizza joint, staff were great, pizza was greater! Recommend!

Fantastic food - great service! 100% recommend

We came in on a Wednesday night before heading to the football as my son had found this amazing place online, we were not disappointed, literally THE BEST pizza we have ever had in our lives and we've had a lot of pizza 🍕🍕 Cannot recommend this place highly enough !! Super friendly staff also 😎😎

Love the pep talk. Nice atmosphere and staff are always pleasant. Becoming a regular!

Fantastic restaurant - the Detroit style pizzas are well worth it! Beautifully made, a nice selection of toppings and all served with a smile by the friendly staff. The window seats are also great for watching the world go by whilst you eat. Ps. Whilst difficult, do make sure you leave space for the pistachio lobster tails for dessert!

By far my favourite pizza restaurant in Newcastle. Food is amazing, staff are very friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is great. Can’t recommend enough!

Fantastic pizza, possibly the best I’ve ever had. Nice that it’s something completely different from other pizzas in Newcastle. Had some dips and lobster tails too and all too die for! Would go again

Great atmosphere, Staff were friendly and welcoming, food was great, well filling food, truffle waffle fries are recommended, along with a slice of bada bing 🤌

Love coming here for a vegan slice. Only wish they would rotate which vegan pizza could be ordered by the slice, maybe a different one each week??

Lovely spot with fluffy, generous and absolutely delicious New York pizzas!

Amazing pizza, great for a quick lunchtime stop. Would definitely recommend if you want to try the best Detroit style deep dish pizza in Newcastle

Absolutely amazing Pizzas from this gorgeous new joint in the Toon! The flavours are just outstanding and the genius of them together is just a sublime party in your mouth ! Get yourselves along, you won't be disappointed! Helps that there's handsome lads there too! ;)

My first experience having square pizza. It was crunchy at the bottom and fluffy in the middle. Definitely the best pizza I’ve had.

Excellent pies that are both affordable and delicious. Cool space as well!

We've visited Square Pizza many times and love the tasty food, great vegan and meat options for all dietary needs. Unfortunately, our recent visit left us disappointed with the service. The staff were rude and seemed upset that we were a group of six excited to introduce our friends to Square Pizza. They asked us to lower our voices, despite only two other customers being present. The staff’s attitude made the overall experience feel uncomfortable. It’s a shame because we love the food, but we won’t return with a larger group in the future as the space doesn’t seem to accommodate them well. Staff attitude could definitely be improved.

Really yummy pizza and ranch. The meal deal is a steal.

Ordered on Uber Eats before and finally had the chance to sit in. Absolutely outstanding

Really friendly staff, great music and the food was brilliant. I’ll definitely be back!

We had the a vegan pie (Lulu the cow) with a side of sweet potato fries - SO GOOD. Among the best vegan pizza we’ve ever had in 8 years of being vegan. The fries were crispy and salty and piping hot. The staff were all super lovely and the vibe was cool and relaxed. We couldn’t fault it 🫶

Amazing Detroit style pizza. Loads of different toppings.

Pizzas are delicious. Recommended by a friend and not disappointed. Gourmet pizza at its finest. Staff friendly and knowledgeable and nice atmosphere while we waited. Already booked to go back for dine in experience.

Spectacular slice, crispy edges, indulgent toppings. Dead relaxed atmosphere and the staff were super friendly. Great place to sit for a couple slices and a beer 10/10

Excellent service every time, best pizzas, special shout to Jess. Give Square a try you won’t be disappointed.

Pizza was very nice Was told it would be a 10 minute wait but took nearly 30 mins

Great slices of pizza and some great flavours. How ever me prepared for the grease and the crazy amounts of sauce it's the one place I think needs to cut it back a little. Still great although I'd like to see some drinks on draft.

Very good pizza with unusual toppings. Their special offer of pizza, chips, drink and side is excellent value.

Had the pleasure recently of trying this excellent pizza shop and was impressed. First off, the pizza is top notch - some of the best I’ve had in the UK. The ingredients are obviously premium, and these guys take their craft seriously. Secondly, the service, the chill vibe, and the attention to detail make it on par with many NYC pizza shops I’ve encountered over the years. Well done Square! I’ll be back next time I’m in the Toon!

The service I received from Jess and Amy today was second to none. Both very enthusiastic about the buisness and provided a lovely atmosphere, I will 100% be returning because of these two and the immaculate food. Would recommend to anyone.

A complete gem! I’ve never had pizza like this anywhere else, the crust is flipping delicious and the whole range of toppings are brilliant. The candied jalapeño dip is a must too. The team are all lush as well, 100% recommend

Had lunch as Square pizza today and it was incredible! The staff, Amy and Jess, were so friendly and helpful. I will definitely be returning soon and would recommend to anyone!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I visited Square Pizza in Newcastle with a friend, and it was absolutely phenomenal. We each had two slices, and every bite was perfection. They are true experts in Detroit-style pizza – the crispy, caramelized edges and pillowy, flavorful base were spot on. The toppings were fresh, perfectly balanced, and packed with flavor. The vibe in the place was welcoming, and the staff clearly know their craft. Whether you’re a pizza aficionado or just looking for a great meal, Square Pizza is a must-visit. Hands down the best Detroit-style pizza in Newcastle – I’ll definitely be back for more!

Great pizza with great service! We had a bada bing and vegan red top, both were excellent. Jess' service was brilliant.

I visit Square regularly with my partner as this is our favourite pizza place, we always pop in when we’re in town or order it for delivery. Our go to slices/full pizzas are the red top and Chicky parm they’re so delicious, the best Detroit style pizza in Newcastle. There is also a fantastic selection to choose from so there is something for everyone! we wouldn’t go anywhere else! Jess and the staff are always so lovely and helpful everytime we pop in.

Service from jess was impeccable

I came to square whilst visiting Newcastle and to say I was blown away was an understatement! The food was delicious and the kind welcoming service I received from Jess and Toby was fantastic. If I find myself in Newcastle again I will definitely be coming back

As a Canadian who has actually had Detroit style pizza in Detroit, I was thoroughly satisfied and impressed (I had the classic red top slice with candied jalapeño mayo). Staff were super friendly and I’d definitely come back.

jess served us and the service was amazing and so was the food

Squares are so good and that candied jalapeño dip is 👌

These pizzas are so delicious, the toppings, the dipping sauces and the waffle fries are just 🤤 Will definitely be back 🫶

I recently tried Detroit-style pizza at Square in Newcastle and it was amazing! The crust had the perfect crispy edges, and the cheese-to-sauce ratio was spot on .The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy. If you’re in Newcastle it’s definitely worth a try!

Great pizza and fantastic staff!

Food was a bit disappointing if I’m honest especially regarding the price and when compared to past quality ( I have been a customer for many years ) and normally throughly enjoy your product however on this occasion quality was not reflected in the product - pretty disappointing.

The food took 2 hours to arrive even though it said it would take 30-45 minutes. therefore the food was freezing and even warming it up in the microwave did not make it warm at all. The delivery driver was very inappropriate with me as well and was very adamant in trying to get me to come downstairs even though my flatmate answered the door and had the code. He called me “sexy” which made me very uncomfortable

Cosy and casual place for pizza. I usually prefer thin and crispy pizza but my mind was changed after trying here I'm converted! Staff were really friendly too will definitely return.

What a welcome! Just the most lovely service. Had the Monday lunchtime offer £9.85 for a square (I had the Hey Pesto) with waffle fries and garlic aoli and a drink. Perfect pizza!

Ordered takeaway and it was outstandingly good. Only the high prices prevent us from reordering

Tasty slices however.......bewarned it isn't fast to heat up the slices and don't buy a dip as no way to dip into it.

Really tasty pizza. Probably one of the best ice tasted. Vegan options

Square slice not really for me, but ingredients were fresh and place was really nice. Staff all super friendly and polite. Garlic strips were ace.

Hands down the best pizza I've ever had, made even better by the truly excellent team that make this pizza parlour what it is; an authentic hidden gem. If you're looking for the best pizza in Newcastle, you've found it! You'll miss out if you don't get the Candied Jalapeno Dip with any of the slices (although a whole pie is the way to go).

Great slices of detroit style pizza, great venue

Great pizza with the nicest staff I've ever met Can't wait to come back Thanks Jess and the team for making our trip!

Absolutely heavenly thick slices drenched in fantastic toppings. Seriously good comfort food - highly recommended!

was amazing food and i’ll continue to come back again and again

Popped in here after a few beers in town. What a great choice. The best snack pizza and fries I've had in ages. Really hit the spot. All the lads enjoyed a slice or two. Detroit style pizza is the future! Will definitely be back next time I'm in Newcastle. Bada bing was the dogs, with truffle and parmesan fries. Nom nom !!

Not worth the hype. Basically fancy Bruschetta passing itself off as Pizza. Ordered two slices and what minimal cheese there was ended up burnt round the edges, not nice when you wait 15 minutes for it to be “fresh” . All the toppings were too overpowering, ended up leaving most of it.

First time visiting here and it won’t be the last! The food was amazing and the options were great! Friendly staff and a nice chilled atmosphere!

The food was delicious. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Amazing pizza and amazing staff. We were going to take a picture of the whole pizza but it was too damn good. Also not as overpriced as you’d imagine, very reasonable for a group.

Food is actually very good but I'm not sure it's very healthy. Price is ok. I like the idea and vibe. Carry on with the good work guys.

Rwllay enjoyed our food here. Lunchtime special was great value

I wasn’t expecting much when I tried this because I usually don’t like this style of pizza but wow was I surprised!! It’s so thick but so soft and all the different flavours are amazing, the sauce on the pep talk is just out of this world. If you love this style of pizza you will not be disappointed.

The only place in Newcastle that serves Detroit style pizza. I can’t attest to the authenticity but it’s great food and a nice location.

Phenomenal food, amazing service, and dog friendly! Dog was treated just as well as us

It was our first time at square and we were not disappointed at all! The staff were so accommodating and friendly, big up to the server helping us out today - also the food was absolutely amazing! Waffle fries and the pizza all freshly cooked and so crispy, could not have asked for anything more. Will be back!

Went for restaurant week the deals were better on house was quiet when we got there had a wait for the vegan option but all in all good

On the way to the museum we went in to eat something, the place is small with some places to eat at the counter. We ordered a pizza and some bread with cheese and garlic. They were delicious and the price was acceptable.

My girlfriend and I were out for a date night dinner. We thought we’d try some authentic Chicago style pizza (where the cheese is under the sauce). We were greeted by the most friendly staff you could ask for! They were so helpful with allergies and anything we asked! Alas! Our pizza came, but it was evidently pre cooked and heated up for service. The hot honey and ranch dipping sauce was amazing. However the pizzas were a slight let down, compared to social media advertising. The sweet potato fries were cooked to perfection. The waffle truffle fries however, lacked in some flavour. Overall, we had a positive experience, although the food was presented well, flavours weren’t so prominent.

Probably the best pizza I have ever had, we had a selection of 4 different slices, along with the truffle and Parmesan waffle fries and they were all equally great but I would say the Clancy wiggum was my favourite. Staff were extremely friendly and were really helpful which made for a great experience.

The slices were great and our favourite was the bada bing. Never tried Detroit style pizza before so not sure how authentic it is- the pizza's base was similar to that of a focaccia. We went towards the end of the day so the slices were reheated, perhaps fresher ones would have been a lot better or if you go when there's no fresh pies being made perhaps ordering a full pie will be better? The slices were saucy enough so did not really need any additional sauce, the marinara sauce they came with was an amazing combo. We got the candied jalapeno mayo and it was more candy than jalapeno. I think more sour/spicy sauces on the menu cut through the richness of the pizza and complement the slices better. Think it's a great and convenient lunch spot!

Service 10/10 so friendly! Food was amazing and really good portion sizes, with delicious toppings Super reasonably priced for what we got! Can’t wait to try different options :)

Fantastic pizza and lovely staff

Every time I go, I'm pleased that I did. Great red top square pizza with seasoned waffle fries

Amazing pizza, definitely recommend. I got the red top and my partner got the bada bing and we shared the garlic bread. They were all unreal, and the garlic sauce is to die for too. They were cooked fresh and were a reasonable price for the quality. Service was good and the inside is small but nice and modern. We went at 12:30 on a Thursday and it was pretty quiet so we managed to get a seat.

Really nice original pizzas, great variety of options and ingredients. The restaurant is located in city centre next to other pubs, restaurants and shops. The staff is very professional. 100% recommended

The vegan pizza "Lulu the cow" was just heavenly 😍 I can't wait to try more!

Great Detroit style pizzas. The flavours are amazing, and some of the best pizzas I've had for a long time. Staff were friendly and welcoming. It's worth noting that this is a small place with limited oven space, so good things come to those who wait. Also, seating is stools around the edge of the small but busy counter. Don't let this put you off, though, as the food is top-notch.

Amazing pizza, tasted absolutely incredible and one of the best things I've ever tasted. Shared a whole one between two adults and two children with some sides. Worked out great value. Would definitely come again.

Great tasting Detroit-style pizza. Delicious and generously topped pies with crispy, caramelised, cheesy edges. We tried the Bada Bing which was great if you like some chilli heat and the Clancy Wiggum, both really flavourful. I would certainly recommend a visit

Ordering online was easy, though I wish there were more options. When I arrived, unfortunately there was a technical error which prevented the restauranteur receiving the order, so unfortunately I had to wait 10 minutes to receive my order. However, they offered a free drink and prompt service to make up for it. The pizza had a good coating of spices and garlic, and meaty pepperoni, with the ricotta cheese being an interesting touch. The bread had a crispy base with a soft middle. The red sauce is a little too thick for my liking and I would like more mozzarella for more stringy cheese.

Best pizza of my life. Honestly will be chasing the high of this forever. It’s made it to my off menu lineup.

So good i had to take bite before taking a picture 😂 Premier League this place

This is legit the best pizza we have had in a long time. The crunch of the crust, the quality of the toppings… incredible. So incredibly filling and a must-try for anyone who is curious about Detroit-style pizza.

Visited for lunch the day after the bank holiday weekend. Opened for me and my wife despite having limited food left on the menu. Pizza was amazing, only place I’ve eaten that tastes like proper USA pizza pie. Ingredients were so fresh and tasty. Will definitely be back.

First time trying this establishment. Staff were lovely and really helpful, with plenty of menus so you can take your time and ponder without feeling pressured. There is an awesome selection of food and drink available. The I terror is lovely and it is in a prime location, would highly recommend to anyone to give it ago.

First time trying Square and it didn’t disappoint. Me and my mate opted to share a half and half pie and it was one of the tastiest things i’ve ate. You get 3 slices each on the sharer pies which is more than enough as the slices are really filling. The food did take a little while to come out but it was busy to be fair to them. I will agree with a previous review and say although it’s a cool little place, it’s not the comfiest place to sit and eat so i’d probably take out next time.

If I had to choose my last meal on earth it would be the veg-a-squarian full pie, never tasted anything like it, definitely the best pizza I’ve ever had and some of the best food I’ve ever had🤍

Best pizza I’ve ever had by far. The food was literally amazing and service was fab. If you’ve never tried it you NEED to go! Thank you to Toby and Amy the chef who looked after us. 10/10 - we’ll be back!

I visited here for dining in yesterday and the food was absolutely incredible. The pizza was fantastic and such good value for money. I would 100% return but not to dine in as it's too uncomfortable. I did not like the seating arrangements. The stools are very uncomfortable and there isn't much space to sit. However, staff were super friendly despite how busy it was and there were constant takeaways and delivery drivers.

Best deep dish pizza in town, I had a vegan slice and seriously couldn’t tell it was vegan! Amazing, fries were 10/10

Absolutely fantastic pizza place. The food was excellent and the staff really friendly. Can't recommend them highly enough.

The food here was phenomenal, we had the chicky chicky parm parm pizza, pep talk and the garlic slices. we also tried their cookie which tasted beautiful. The staff members who served us was lovely and he was very friendly and explained everything to us. the only problem we had was with the cleanliness. we were the first to arrive before opening so i suspect the place wasn’t cleaned properly before hand, i have included some photos of the bathroom and the table.

Absolutely incredible. Had the pesto monthly special and it was so delicious. Especially the hot honey. Fries were decent, but like not really the main attraction for me. Pizza was so filling didn't really need them but still nice.

Visited during restaurant week in January with my partner and thoroughly enjoyed our pizza. We both generally prefer a thin crust pizza, but Square pizzas are on a whole different level for deep dish! The dough is thick but light, toppings are flavoursome and the crispy cheese around the edges, for me, is the best part. Perfect for dunking in the excellent selection of dips. The staff were super friendly and while the food took about 25 mins or so to arrive, it was worth the wait. Will be going back!

Fully recommend - staff extremely friendly and pizza is lush. Pep Talk + Hot Honey sauce = winner.
