The is the Cork City forum.

I know that. There's a Novecento in Fermoy on McCurtain st (according to justeat.ie), I was on McCurtain st. (in Cork city) earlier and didn't see the new pizzaria, so just wondering where it is.

Couple of doors down from where cash converters used to be.

Nice one! I'll pop in tomorrow so for a Diavola!

Yeah best real pizza in town. Heard they will be doing pasta dishes there too and you can sit down and eat there

We used to live on Douglas St when it opened and for a short while we were almost the only people going there.It was good to see they took off as their pizzas are the best in town.

Tried Novocento Friday for the first time. Very nice indeed. Between that and La Tana as the number one for me.

I would recommend Pompei pizza in the Franciscan Well on thursday and friday nights and Gino's on Winthrop st has picked up again also.

They are on Barrack Street, I actually prefer La Tana to Novecento but they are obviously both delicious. Best two pizza places in Cork for sure. Try one of La Tana's rice balls if you're ordering one of their pizzas, so tasty! They are on Just Eat as well.

Arancini,they are indeed yummy.
Who's running La Tana these days as the owner passed away there a few months back.

Taste of Italy in Blackrock are nice too!! Loads of good pizza spots around.

Pompeii are excellent.

As is Sober Lane, their pizzas are definitely as good as Novecento or any of the others in town!

From.what I remember it's only a few euro extra, like 2 euro I think

sporina

isn't La Tana on Douglas street?

I never get to try these pizza's as I do not live near these streets and I do not like cold pizza.. IMO pizza has to be eaten almost straight out of the oven,.. and you cannot sit in any of these places either… well.. not really,..

La Tana is on Barack street.

The only other pizza place on Douglas street is Heaven Pizza on the corner of douglas street and summerhill south.

There's a Novecento on douglas St near Fionnbarra's pub.
Its small but you can eat inside there.
I believe there was an arrangement with La Tana on Barrick St that you could eat the pizza in the wine bar across the road from it if you bought a drink there.

Novecento are robbing bastards for a pizza, Apache is a tenner for any size pizza or domino's and four star etc do deals. **** paying 20 euros or over for a pizza..madness.

20 euro??

The most ive ever paid in there is ~14/15 euro.

And the quality is miles ahead of the likes of four star.

Well worth any minor price differences, You get what you pay for and all that

For a 16" pizza there 20 euro plus for a half decent one in novacento. Like i said ya get a 16" inch for a tenner in apache and ya get deals in dominos, four star, mizzoni etc. Madness in this day and age paying 20 yo yo's for a bit of dough and toppings.

pwurple

12 of their 22 large pizzas are over 20 euro. They are pricey alright.

The Scratcher

Four Star, Dominos and Apache are manky. If you're worried about forking out for a decent meal just go to Aldi and pick up those carlos pizzas for 3 euro way better than any of those.

They will do just fine, i cant justify paying over 20 euros for a pizza these days..no bother back in 05/06. Ive eaten out of novacento and their 16" pizzas dont warrant over 20 euros. And since when is a pizza a decent meal, if i want to pay over 20 euros for grub ill go and sit myself down in a restaurant and eat a "decent" meal.

Dermighty

Had a pizza in Novecento, looked great but was completely tasteless. There wasn't even a taste of grease or salt from it!

well good point on decent meal bit. It's a hangover treat and at that I'd only have a pizza max once a month.

Tried it out yesterday and I thought the pizza was delicious.

i think i wll try La Tana before Novecento

Kold

La Tana >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Novecento

I love pizza, going to have to give this place a go!!

Whatever about 4 star, which I quite like, the other 2 are awful Dominoes is processed to the extreme and is just plain. I reckon filled with MSG as well given the manky feeling afterwards.

Apache is just bloody disgusting. Its €10 for a reason.

La Tana is actually quite cheap as well to add to its pluses!!!

rob316

La Tana is just top notch, regularly go there, wouldn't buy pizza from anywhere else. Arrachino is lovely and there chips are as good as anywhere. Sound lads in there too. HMMM 12" Verace and chips with cajun mayo! Its cheap too, and the lads offer a loyalty card every 6th pizza is free.

and Ive tried Novecento, its very good but all a bit too pricey, La Tana has a better balance of value and quality.

Shenshen

I'll have to try La Tana, this is the first time I heard about that.
I was over the moon when I discovered Novecentos a while back, the first decent pizza place I've found since coming to Ireland.
I've tried Dominos, 4 Star, Apache, Pizza Hut and others, and how people can pay any money at all and then even eat the stuff is utterly and totally beyond me. They are disgusting beyond words.

Dermighty

In my experience Sober Lane > any other pizza in the city.

i shared a pizza from sober lane once and i sat in me like a tonne of lead..wayyyy to heavy for me…

La Tana is the business. Big fan of theirs. Delivery to Tom Barrys is a big win Don't know Novecento so well.

And mentioning Apache/Dominos/Four Star in the same breath as these proper pizzerias is just plain madness.

sporina

la tana deliver to tom's? no way…

in saying all this, i rarely ever get a pizza delivered.. a pizza has to be eaten almost just out of the oven..

i would go pick it up..

what do other's think?

Southern Germany, close enough to Italy for day trips... with pizza lunches in Venice

I would agree, it doesn't keep warm very long, and re-heated... well, it'll be edible, but that's about the best can be said.

Pizza D'Italia on the Grandparade arent bad and very cheap if people are so worried about the price of pizza..
