Sub Rosa Pizza

Sub Rosa Pizza has established itself as one of Glasgow's most celebrated pizza destinations, consistently earning exceptional praise for its spot on pizzas, top-quality ingredients, and genuine care from the owner. The pizzeria has been described as hidden pizza Mecca of the South Side, best of Neapolitan pizza with a dash New Haven, and easily one of the best pizzas ever had, with reviewers consistently awarding it high ratings and expressing their eagerness to return.

The food at Sub Rosa receives outstanding reviews, with pizzas consistently described as spot on, absolutely delivered, superb, easily one of the best pizzas ever had, and featuring crisp, chewy base, top-quality toppings, and bold flavours that actually live up to the hype. The Detroit white base pizza is described as superb and easily one of the best pizzas ever had, and the chicken is described as a game changer. The quality of ingredients is described as really shows, and the tender beef is cut into Korean bite sized strips, with the crust described as cooked perfectly. The food quality is such that reviewers note it's good to see someone doing something a bit different in Glasgow, and the pizza is described as 0 flop. However, there have been some concerns raised about consistency, with one reviewer noting chewy pizza dough, not much fluff in the crust so ended up feeling leathery, and the cheese topping just ended up making it look and taste like your average Glasgow pizza, though they noted the good tang to the tomato base and that the crust was cooked perfectly.

Delivery service receives mixed feedback, with one reviewer noting it arrived earlier than expected, piping hot, and with a free dip thrown in for good measure, while another reviewer noted a 1 1/2 hour delivery time meant this was a much anticipated pizza, and it was OK but worth the wait...no, suggesting delivery times may vary.

The owner, Dom, receives specific commendations for genuinely caring, with reviewers noting there's real pride in what they're doing here, and it shows not just in the food, but in how they treat their customers. Reviewers note Sub Rosa isn't just turning out great pizza, they're building something special, demonstrating the owner's commitment and passion.

The pizzeria's location is noted as a pain to find as there's no signs anywhere, and it's hidden in an industrial estate, though reviewers provide helpful directions for finding it.

Value perception varies, with reviewers noting the pizza is great, but at £14 for the base + £2/topping it quickly becomes quite expensive for what is, at the end of the day, a pizza. One reviewer noted a pizza with 2 toppings and a garlic dip came to just under £40 delivered (though they had a 20% discount which brought it down closer to £30). However, reviewers note that although it's expensive, you realise why as soon as you take a bite, the quality of the ingredients really shows, suggesting that while prices are high, the quality justifies it for those willing to pay.

For visitors to Glasgow, Sub Rosa has become a destination that many feel is essential to experience, with reviewers describing it as the hidden pizza Mecca of the South Side and expressing their certainty to return. The pizzeria's ability to deliver spot on pizzas, top-quality ingredients, and genuine care has earned it enthusiastic recommendations. Whether you're seeking easily one of the best pizzas ever had, best of Neapolitan pizza with a dash New Haven, or simply something a bit different in Glasgow, Sub Rosa consistently delivers experiences that reviewers describe as spot on, superb, and highly recommend. The combination of quality food, top-quality ingredients, genuine care, and something different makes it a standout establishment, though guests should be aware that pricing is on the higher side and the location can be difficult to find.
