At least it's shaped like pizza Pretty disappointing considering it was listed as #5 best pizza in Australia. For one the service wasn't the best. I... read more had a 10% off receipt that led me to John's in the first place from the campground I was staying at by falsely advertising as 5th best in the country.

Garlic bread was also good.

One bit of advice: if you don’t have to dine in, then take the food to where you stay as their drinks prices are a bit high.

They also do half and half if one pizza is enough, but you want to try two toppings. Otherwise get one of each, as these pizzas tasted great as warmed up leftover. read less

What’s the fuss? Lots of “since the new owners” apologies... I love pizza, and was looking forward to “the best pizza in Australia” but left very disappointed.

Firstly - pizza... read more was so-so... flavours were good, but the base was so disappointing that I actually walked over to check that they weren’t frozen!

Secondly - service.... whilst the waitress who served us was very nice and pleasant, immediately after I paid I remembered that our hotel entitled us to a 10% discount. I asked (immediately after paying) if I could get this discount and was told that I couldn’t because the transaction had gone through. I also asked if I could have a free coffee instead (discount would have been $11.90), but was told that they wouldn’t do that. The explanation given was that “lots has changed since the new owners”.

Hard for me to be disappointed with a pizza place, but I’ll be happy to get home to my local. read less

One of the main is mixed grill!

Two of the girls shared this dish and after they tasted the lamb, they find out the meat was already gone bad, tasted horrible and smelled stain!

We ask for help ,a girl who called AMY,she claimed that she is the person who take in charge of the kitchen that night ,she was extremely rude and didn't even apologise once to us!

She said we can either get 10% off of the mixed grill dish or give us a bottle of soft drink.

We get the drink, then we found out the pork in the set was gone bad as well!We asked Her again,AMY was so rude she said I can give you the refund you can still eat the meal or she will feed the dog after !

Excuse me!Is that the appropriate attitude that a chef should have ?

She gave us $28 dollars refund!Very rude!

I have never seen anyone like her,we tried to negotiate with her, she was so aggressive!

We spent 2 days back to Adelaide!
