I first started eating here around September, and every order has gotten better and better. The new owners are doing amazing, and do really make the best pizza in lancaster (the best pizza I’ve ever had from anywhere arguably!). You can get even better pizzas than big brands like dominoes for half the price, and I really will not order from anywhere else again❤️ Their new pastas are a lovely addition to an already loved menu. I’ve previously had the carbonara while dining in and it was irresistible. Here’s tonight’s delivery! If you haven’t tried it already, do it!

Came by as usual in the New Year with my partner when we saw the restaurant had reopened after the Christmas period. We came for our weekly halloumi and pizza date at the Sun Pizza to see a redecorated restaurant. The place feels a lot more cosy and the minimal look suits the place a lot more. The prints and lighting is really cool and modern and the atmosphere is so much better than the darkness and graffiti before. New menu is great, we tried their new pastas: the pesto and carbone are delicious, we chose gnocchi and penne as our pasta with the sauces. Can't wait to come back and try the other pasta options and new pizzas. Staff were lovely as always. Really recommend this place especially since they now do cocktails!

Walked by this place the other day and realised that they had re-decorated as previously it had been a dark and dingy place, but now seemed more modern and attractive. I got a Diavola pizza, which had Italian sausage, nduja and their chilli honey. It was amazing and the most unique pizza I've had in Lancaster. Would definitely go back, especially for their happy hour which I've heard they're renowned for!!

We came to Sun Pizza with Uni friends about 2 yrs ago. Always good pizzas, good wine list, nice atmosphere and run by Italians. Called in last week to collect a takeaway. Atmosphere completely destroyed by tasteless redecoration and strip tube lighting. Friendly staff but should have taken advice on creating a restaurant atmosphere. Pizza okish but would never go there to eat in - shame !

This place was decent a few years ago. I think they changed owners. Tried it again for the first time in a while. It was completely inedible. Quite simply the worst pizza I've had in Lancaster. It was even worse than pizza made by my 4 year old daughter using a frozen crust from Saintsburys, which included a healthy dose of 4 year old snots. Truly appalling. Save yourself and go to Aquila (I promise I'm not affiliated with them in any way. They just make actually good pizza)

Ordered a takeaway and after 2 hours it finally turned up but one of the pizzas was missing. Rang the restaurant and he said I can have a refund. I told him I wanted the pizza as I had waited already over 2 hours. The person on the phone told me it would be made as a priority and sent on the next delivery. Rang again after over 3 hours was told he had basically forgot and would make it now. I told him to just give me a refund but now having to jump through hoops to get this off Uber. Terrible service and the food I did receive was very salty.

Visited with my wife a couple of nights back, had a really nice meal in a really pleasant, laid back little restaraunt .Obviously the place is still in its infancy and think I they are still waiting for an alcohol license, the Sun Inn isn't far for a pre meal pint though! ( I don't think they do coffee either yet?)Having said that courgettes in batter to start with and a very nice calzone for the main course were very tasty.Lancaster has quite a few restaraunts for a' smallish' town (especially Italians) but the really attentive friendly staff, decent prices and character of the place will certainly encourage me to go again.

Alleluia ! Sun Pizza has re-opened, not only for takeaway but also as a restaurant.Two young guys have taken over the business and having visited one night last week, I can guarantee it will (once again) become a regular eating place for us. Nothing is too much trouble, whatever toppings you want they can usually accommodate. For the next couple of weeks you need to take your own alcohol until their Licence comes through but overall, we are so pleased the restaurant has re-opened and the standard of food is so good.Just try,……you won’t regret it !!

Just had a takeaway from here ordered through Lancaster eats. The food arrived early and the pizza was obviously freshly made and properly stone baked.Also very good value for money; for £10 I got a very sizeable Margarita pizza, which tasted amazing, and a side of chips. The pizza was so nice my partner has decided he wants it for his birthday in April, even if covid means we have to get it as a takeawayI have also eaten here in the restaurant too in the times before covid restrictions and that was also a lovely experience, staff are very friendly and they do an amazing deal for parties of 6 or more (I think) for bottomless pizza! They continue to bring pizzas until you ask them to stop, it’s brilliant!Overall their staff and pizzas are nothing short of fantastic and I look forward to ordering again!

We love the Sun pizza and have eaten here many times plus taken advantage of their home delivery service, we are quite fussy about quality and we can say this restaurant does the best pizza in town.The staff are friendly and efficient so we would not hesitate to recommend it. Its tucked away down a quiet sidestreet in the city centre so if you are not local find the Sun pub on Church street then go down Sun street at the side. You will find Sun pizza at the bottom on the right.

The pasta came with a tub of parmesan which was a nice touch. Portion of pasta was generous , the sauce was very creamy and tasty. There was a lot of fish in the pasta , they dont scrimp.

Excellent pizza and pasta. Ordered as a treat for the family. The pizza are traditional Italian so not heavy on cheese which we like. Very tasty. Pasta dishes are great quality and my boys really enjoyed them, especially the carbonara. The only reason I didn’t give 5* is the chips were a little disappointing. We prefer homemade and they were crinkle cut oven chips. That being said, we will definitely be returning and the service was great, the delivery man was lovely and it arrived earlier than expected, which was welcomed having hungry boys. Highly recommended and will be trying more from the menu.

This is a hidden gem and perfect for small and large groups alike. The prices are reasonable although I would question their drink prices. The waitress/waiters could be a little more assertive as to table settings and taking orders but they were certainly friendly. We decided to do the 'all you can eat pizza' which was great as you got different pizza every time, although the wait in between each one was inconsistent and could be improved. The pizza is amazing, thin crust, cooked to perfection with a range of toppings, that you can't really find anywhere else in Lancaster.I will certainly be back again, and telling friends to try too!

Tucked away down a side street, opposite the Sun Cafe, I was surprised by the number of Lancaster residents who'd never been to Sun Pizza. Having visited a couple of times now, I thought it worth scribbling out a quick review.Sun pizza is minimally decorated, cozy little pizzeria that's clean and sedate. It kind of feels a bit like a 'more countryside' pizza express, which is possibly a strange thing to say, given the origins of Lancaster's pizza Margherita (apparently started by a relative of the Pizza Express owner). The kitchen pass is an arms length away from diners, shuttling the pizzas across from the kitchen in good order.Service was fast, if a little quirky.Two pizzas were ordered between us; a special (aubergine and smoked cheese) and a bianca Carbonara (Mozzarella, pancetta, egg and parmesan cheese), along with olives, bread and bruschetta. Quality of the pizzas was excellent. Lovely fresh, thin crisp bases and a great balance of toppings. Starters were decent, though unnecessary, as we ended up leaving two slices each of the two pizzas. I'd not tried a bianca (white) pizza before, but it'll definitely be something I look for again.Price of the pizzas is very reasonable (around £8.50), especially when you consider the quality. They only offer 11" as a size, but as mentioned above, this was more than enough for both of us, who arrived pretty starving. I noted, only once we were seated that they offer a 'happy hour' with some pizzas £5.75 each from 17:30pm to 18:30pm (tues to friday), which would be excellent value.If you're feeling particularly gluttonous, they also offer unlimited pizza for £11.50 per person. Apparently the pizza selection you get is at the chef's choice. It's something I'd definitely give a go with a few mates, if I had an evening spare and wanted to have a few drinks and power through pizzas.If you like thin and crisp, what I'd always referred to as 'traditional' pizzas then I'd definitely recommend a visit to Sun Pizza. If you prefer your pizzas deep pan or dripping with cheese, like a Pizza Hut or Dominoes, then it might not quite to your taste, but I'd heartily suggest giving it a go.

Really loved this place. The pizzas were great - like other reviewers say, very thin, huge and with lots of flavour. Prices were very competitive and service was excellent. I loved the decor - framed graffiti art, soft jazz in the background and an unpretentious setting made me feel like I was in a New York pizzeria! Even though it is small and it was busy we could chat easily and it wasn't rowdy at all. Drinks (bottled water) were expensive but they are in restaurants. Only two pudding choices but I felt that was okay as the focus is really on the pizzas. Highly recommended.

We ate at this restaurant midweek in the evening. It was comfortably busy. The food was really very good and the waiting staff were friendly and very helpful. We sat by the window and were not cramped by other tables being too close. The food was cooked to order which takes a bit longer than some other restaurants but it was worth every minute. It was delicious and we couldn't fault it. The wine was very good too and not expensive for a reasonable quaffable bottle of red.We will eat here again when we next go to Lancaster.

The Sun Pizza is owned by the same people as the Sun Cafe (directly across the street)We visted mid-week, so the place was a tad quiet, but we guess it gets busy at other times.We visited in a group of 4 friends.The service is very good, and the drinks came quickly (we recommend the cider!)We all ordered starters - which were very niceThe pizzas were stone baked and seemed to be very traditional and authentic Italian.We all enjoyed our meals - and felt it was well worth the money (which wasnt expensive either)Well worth a visit - but try the Sun Cafe too!

This is a great little spot for pizza lovers. All authentic pizza, freshly made dough and cooked to perfection. Thin bases, Italian tomato sauce and all the classic toppings. They even do gluten free pizza.!Happy hour at the moment through the week 1730-1830 eat most pizza and a couple of pasta dishes for £5! A group of 4 adults and 2 children ate for £37.50 with drinks. Warning don't go if you like thick stodgy, uncooked pizza with mountains of toppings! Freshly prepared, authentic pizza with a thin perfectly cooked crust bubbled in the oven here... The only possible thing missing here would be a wood fired oven.

Lovely food and atmosphere. I came to lancaster on business so just wanted a quiet place to grab a pizza. Food came quickly and was very reasonable in price. Would visit again!

We've started going to the Sun pizza as our go-to quick meal out in Lancaster - great thin pizzas with lovely ingredients and a nice atmosphere. It's often fairly quiet but I've no idea why as it is such good value - most pizzas are under a tenner.They even do free delivery!Love it and will definitely go back many times.

Visited twice in May both times on Friday night. Wonderful thin, perfectly cooked pizzas with not the usual shop bought in tomato topping and fresh cheese. Service is great from very relaxed staff. Whole place has a very chilled and casual atmosphere. Excellent.

We went here because we knew there was a gluten-free option. We all agreed that these were the best pizzas we'd had in Lancaster! The bases are so good!!!!!Thank you Sun Pizza!

Been here a few times, most recently with a large group. Staff were very accommodating and keen to help with dietary requirements and the food was exceptional. Would definitely recommend.

The place is pretty small but clean. The pizza is ok, the cook is a nice guy. They can host big dinners with large groups.

Honestly, the title says it all. There's not much more to add, one of the best pizzas we've ever eaten and without the fuss and the chaos that certain larger pizza chain restaurants sometimes have. A must for a visit to Lancaster !

11 of us descending of the Sun Pizza on Friday evening (we had pre-booked). I had read the reviews on Tripadvisor prior to arriving so I must admit i was feeling a little apprehensive about this but I need not have worried at all. As soon as we arrived we were shown immediately to our table. I have visited here before when it was Bistro 26 and I always found it to be a really strange atmosphere and not very inviting decor but that has certainly all changed. The decor was really warm and inviting and it was lovely and toasty and warm inside so i didnt need to wear that extra cardigan i had brought from reading previous reviews. The young waitress came over to our table with menus and showed us where the drinks section was and proceeded to explain about the beers that were available and took our drinks order. She then explained about the menu and how we could order the "Giro" (I think that was how it was spelt!) Each customer who wanted to partake in this paid £10 each and it was literally "all you could eat pizza" until you asked them to stop or there was pizza slices left on the table. All 11 of us decided to go with this - also stating that there were 4 vegetarians in the group and we were informed that wasnt a problem. The poor young chef behind the counter looked a little worried!!! The drinks were brought to our table and not long after the first pizzas arrived - 4 x 11" pizzas in total, two vegetarian and two meat. We devoured them and not long after another 4 arrived. We had about 18 pizzas in total delivered to the table until we all said to stop. Every single one of those pizzas were absolutely delicious - good quality toppings, some fantastic combinations and plenty of it and the crusts were to die for - not your usual "Iceland" pizzas but proper Italian style pizzas which are traditionally made with a very thin crust. Proper pizzas not frozen supermarket pizza!!!! Every single one of our group of 11 commented about how good the food was, how refreshing to be able to have all the different toppings on the pizzas rather than having to pick one (and I dont think any of the pizza toppings were replicated - every single one of the 18 pizzas were slightly different) and how attentive the staff were without being in your face. It was certainly a briliant idea to have the "all you can eat pizza" with all the different toppings as you didnt feel get the same taste over and over again with each slice. I will most definately be going back there and was telling everyone at work about how good it was. Well done to the young chef who kept going with all those pizzas - especially when another group of about 10 blokes arrived!!!!! Absolutely brilliant place - well done

This place serves the dry way pizza dough with practically nothing on it ! The most tasteless pizzas ever - Iceland do better pizzas - and the service is haphazard and amateur. How can they serve this rubbish and get away with it under the guise of authenticity Italians would be appalled!

More of a pizza specialist than a restaurant, the starters are very simple, the quality is in the pizzas themselves. Thin crust, fresh and brilliant toppings, good value. Great place for a pizza meal. Agree about the chill, I've been quite a few times and it is cold when there's a frost outside.

2nd time here ..1st visit was ok, nice staff, nice pizza but spoiled by being bit chilly in restaurant...last night when we ate there early (6ish) it was actually cold inside despite radiators being on...you shouldn't have to wear a coat in a restaurant in order to be warm enough. As it was we were both wearing fleeces & still both chilled. Extra heaters please! Nice young waitress so I didn't want to make a fuss at time but resent paying for un enjoyed meal (due to temperature..food was fine)..may go again in heat of summer

Great selection of pizzas and all available on a gluten free base. I had parma ham and rocket with Parmesan shavings. Only small selection off starters but the stuffed mushrooms were delicious too.

Just pizzas, but what a wide range to choose from. Best pizzas in Lancaster. limited range of drinks, good service. Run by the same people who have the Sun Café.

Aside from the waiter not appearing to be able to communicate with the chef's, and the substations for the drinks we ordered being far from adequate. All the pizzas tasted the same?! They didn't appear to know what was going on and they didn't have 30% of the products advertised on their menu.Advice: If your not ready to open don't open. Just generally be organised, as there is nothing worse than paying for something when even the staff have no idea what's going on, the advice was terrible.

Stumbled across this whilst waiting for a trip to the theatre. Even though they were fully booked, they did manage to squeeze us in (2 adults 2 children) servers were very friendly, food was amazing and dessert was tremendous. Next visit to Lancaster and we will definitely be booking this fabulous little restaurant.
