VESUVIO Italian Restaurant Clitheroe in Ribble Valley

Just finished eating my food and what a treat it was. Food came 15 mins early and was piping hot, also tasted excellent!

Placed an order on just eat at 6.11pm I ordered 1 pepperoni pizza and a portion of cheesy chips. The food arrived at 7.50pm, The pizza was soggy and stone cold, definitely not stone baked. The chips were also stone cold and they came with chilli and cheese on ? I didn’t order chilli. The chips were rock hard and tasted pre cooked. Maybe look at changing the oil. Funny thing was I rang up at 7.45 to find out where the food was and no one had a clue what was going on, the girl on the phone said “yes your Hawaiian pizza with all the toppings is on the way” 👀 I’ve Just moved to the area and thought I’d try it for the first time. Well….. never again, straight in the bin. Madness !!!

Best pizza I’ve EVER HAD! Homemade Italian pizza with gorgeous toppings. 10/10

Enjoyed the food and atmosphere very much 👌

Long time since I’ve had a pizza from here.. now I remember why.. god knows what it was.. just a sloppy mess.. it was absolutely vile.. definitely worth NOT going

Hands down the best pizza in the Ribble Valley 🍕

Kebab wasn't great, I ordered garlic sauce but it was only mayo and very small salad, keep away totally waste of the money

Called in last minute for some pizzas, food was excellent, good service and friendly. Will go again.

The pizzas do tend to take a while to arrive (at least 1.5 hours after ordering usually) but less so if you get your order in early. However, the pizzas are always tasty and authentic Italian.

Ordered a carbonara for delivery. Turned up, very sticky, tastes just like cream and couldn't find any bacon at all. Rang up to explain and it's impossible and i am wrong. Wont be going there again

Please do not use this takeaway. It is appalling. It was our anniversary, so we splashed out on starters and mains. They gave us a wrong part order but refused point blank to change it. The garlic bread was like sawdust, and the chicken kebab was all salad, with a couple of chunks of very dry chicken. All of our food was cold. very expensive mistake. Would not use it again.

Very unfortunate but my first and only experience will be my last, missed 2 items from my delivery order, one of the pizzas was very underdone and please start actually using decent prawns! Those things you put on the pizzas really can't be classed as prawns. Very poor food. What turned up anyway

The worst takeaway I have ever had! The chicken wrap with some grungy salad thrown in a naan bread with battered chicken that looked and tasted like a cold, uncooked, battered crabstick! Cold soggy chips, the pizza (that looked cheese less) was awful and cold. There were 2 not one 2! Long hairs in the kebab! I called Vesuvio and spoke to the manager who responded with ‘we will do better next time’!! The man is a joke! So we were left hungry as the food was not edible, with no refund! So we ordered a curry instead! AVOID AT ALL Costs!!

I was working nearby and we got full catering but I had to go here a couple of times. The pizza is outstanding. I had the 'Spicy Anna'. Great food and service. I will be back.

V good pizza and the Arancino was the best!

Waited 90mins for food & it arrived cold. First time using this place, we will stick to romeros.

Ordered a cheese and tomato pizza with garlic bread. Didn't realise I would get a cheeseless and tomato pizza. Apparently the cheese melts completely!!! Wasn't happy to rectify when taken back straight away. Least to say we won't be returning, very disappointed.

Excellent take away freindly staff

Very good pizza cooked by Italian people. Reliable and quick

One of the nicest takeaway pizzas I've had, very authentic.

They tell you on the phone the card machine is broken can only take cash, then you go in and the card machine working fine. 🤔

Really disappointed with the order, food took just over an hour to arrive and was barely cooked upon arrival. The pizza and kebab dough was raw and required cooking by ourselves.

Got a mixed kebab had 3 pieces of chicken on and the donner was shockingly disgusting and cold would not recommend

Having waited 2 hours for our food which was stone cold and one lasagne missing from our order only to be told that they were too busy to replace the missing item. Very poor all round

Reasonably priced food and drink. Pastas were good and plenty. There was a singer on when we were there which added to the atmosphere. Lovely and quick service.

My previous favourite local pizza takeaway had gone downhill, so I gave Vesuvio another try today. Based on this visit, I will be coming back. Good quality, home made pizza, made fast and good value.

Well it’s finally happened. All good places do go through this. It turns terrible. There’s a clear ingredient swap from quality to cheap. The marinara tastes canned and the cheese isn’t good. I understand there’s inflation, and cost of living but be honest with people. First few years it was the best in town but the slip likely due to a change of owners?

ordered a special kebab, the dough was that thick it was like a blanket, very undercooked, filling just like a tinned chicken and mushroom... hubby had supposedly braised steak in a tomato sauce, cheap meat tinned tomato sauce.. first order, and the last.. I can make better at home

Brilliant Italian style thin crust take away pizza from a wood fired oven. Really friendly helpful service. Pizzas every bit as good as the ones we had earlier this year in Tuscany. Nice garlic bread too though it goes cold quite quickly. Mixed sauteed Mediterranean veg was a tasty accompaniment. Would def go back.

no amount of munchies will persuade me to order a £10 tin of heinz spaghetti from here again. next time i'll just stick to eating out my cat's litter tray

Wow best Garlic Bread & Pizza we have had for a long time😀

Really really disappointed. The overcooked pasta was drowning in badly cooked tomato sauce, bad quality ingredients. Starters were ok, but not enough to save this review.

Unfortunatly with rising prices quality go down... really sorry to say that because its was my favourite pizzeria.

Order didn’t turn up . Vesuvio insisted it had attempted delivery despite us being in the front room would not refund! Will not be ordering from them again!

Ordered from here a few times and unfortunately I find it very hit and miss. A few times we have had pizza where the dough has been very thick, Chewy and slightly undercooked 🤔 I've had to put it in the oven to crisp up which you shouldn't have to do with a takeaway. Have messaged but never had a response.

First timers at Vesuvio... By far the best Pizzas in town...by a long shot and the Pasta dish was sublime.. these guys are clearly using good quality fresh ingredients. I'd recommend everyone to give this place a go....they will not disappoint.

2 hours to deliver and when it arrived was cold

Best pizzas ever with quick service

Fantastic pizza. Looking forward to trying their extensive menu in the future.

First time ordering from these guys. Really good. On par with pizzas from Naples. Delivery driver very polite too. Thank you.

Eaten here twice recently and I’m really impressed. Firstly they have the most creative pizza menu in town in both name and ingredients and everything is super fresh. The chips they serve are the best tasting french fries I’ve had in the uk too.

Bought a vast amount of food via the website. Given a time of 20 minutes to collect. Got there 20 minutes later, it was done?! Very quick. Surprising considering it was six different dishes.

Disappointed that the telephone order wasn't fulfilled correctly with a few missing items one being a child's nugget meal , when pointed out over telephone very lacklustre response from staff and no attempt made to apologise or send order out with a delivery driver except with a 2 hour wait Girl on telephone seemed to spend more time chatting to get friend who was in front of takeaway rather than taking orders correctly

Had pizzas from here twice now excellent both times, as good as pizzas had in Italy !!

Pizza very good. A shame staff have been rude on the telephone tonight calling my daughter "questa" and insistingthey don t deliver to our post code area despite having delivered twice before.

Very disappointed this time! We ordered a mixed kebab, calzone and chips as an end of January treat, the kebab was stone cold and calzone was lukewarm, chips were too salty. Food barely touched,

Absolutely amazing food. Staff lovely too. Pasta dishes are delicious!

NOT SUITABLE FOR VEGETARIANS OR VEGANS. Not Authentic. Owner Was very rude when I complained about the quality all he said we are very busy. Also Not suitable for vegetarians or vegans as owner admitted there will always be cross contamination with meat products. They cannot make authentic Italian pizza to save their life. Spend your money somewhere else. Avoid like the plague.

Smart place, is the best really italian food lovely staff, thank you

Excellent pizza and kebabs. Generous portions.

5 stars for the food , its excellent The 4 stars is for the price , i think for me its a bit expensive for a pizza

Really good pizza. Much better than an average takeaway

First time experience. Order was wrong and late. The pizzas have a fancy base but cheap cheese. Wouldn't recommend.

We ordered a couple of pizzas last night, absolutely lovely, thanks very much

Fantastic quality food and service to our front door. Will use again and fully recommend.

Best pizza in clitheroe, hands down

Great takeaway, much higher quality than a normal takeaway, real pizzas cooked in a traditional oven, superb!

very good pizza and pasta. friendly and helpful staff. punctual delivery service .. recommended for all lovers of good food ...

Very good, the fried calzone, Complimenti

Sorry but the meal that I ordered today was no where near as good as other times I've ordered the bread the burger was on was hard like it had been in the microwave and the chips had been re/fried ... Sorry very disappointed

Had 2 lovely pasta dishes last night. Really good value for money, better than the Emporium.

Excellent staff, food quality great price is very good been many many times when used to work in Clitheroe always had good time

Ordered the pizza Tropicale and the Simple Garlic Bread to take away. Pizza was nice, garlic bread didn't taste anything and one bit was badly burnt. The worst for me was that the same staff preparing the pizza was then handling the money! Food safety hygiene?!?. I wouldn't recommend.

Table booked for 7.30 no food by 9.15 Walked out.

Authentic Italian food excellent

Good Pizzas, friendly staff, handy to take the kids to, warm welcome

I come here weekly and am always more than happy with the freshly oven cooked pizza. The meat pizza is amazingly good and the service is always fast as well as the employees being so friendly; would definitely recommend.

First time ordering. Thought it would be amazing authentic italilian food. Firstly my order was late without any notice. My pizza looked like my cat had been sick on it, and my wife's order was wrong. After ringing to complain about my wife's order, I was told they will make the order correct next time we order!! Not good enough!! After spending a mini fortune I wanted my order correct, they said they would send my wife's order out again but could be another 30 minutes. What a joke save your money and spend it on a cheaper pizza shop thats decent. There's plenty in clitheroe for half the price.

Cracking pizza cooked in a real wood fired oven. Next time I am in Clitheroe I'll go again.

Spicy Anna is the one. Good chips too

Ordered pizza at 10 didn't get it until midnight no cheese on pizza bread all soggy and burnt really disappointed will never use this takeaway again

Food is good, service is fast and efficient.

Very tasty and made fresh before our eyes excellent thank you

After a few beers it's fine not great or fantastic just fine 😐😐

Not bad. Pizzas could have done with a bit longer in the oven but a nice clean take away and friendly service

Fantastic pizza cooked in as impressive wood fired oven. Well run family business.

Absolutely authentic Italian - their Margherita is to die for...

Absolutley disgusted with the service, long wait and pizza was uncooked!!

Horrible customer service gave us the wrong order and refused to give us the money back and said it's not there problem hung up on us multiple times refusing to accept they messed up the order as well as this the pizza looked like it had been cut up by a child and the cheese slid right off the pizza once I picked it up

Very nice Italian Neopolitan pizza cooked in the traditional way in a wood burning pizza oven.. just great 😎

Genuine pizza cooked by genuine Italians; best of all in a real wood burning oven, taste is incredible. Just like the pizzas in Italy.

Disappointing this time - previously had enjoyed food, but was 20 mins later than stated, one was not as ordered, other was not prepared properly.

Fantastic authentic food fresh and cooked in front if you ... travel 30 mile round trip and it's worth it good quality food always tasty :)

Fantastic,forget about Pizza Hut and Dominos..my favourite is the Vincenzo..
