135 Ochterloney St, Dartmouth, NS B2Y 1C9, Canada
Went to the Hungry Hut for the first time on Oct.11th for the pizza and garlic fingers, and WOW it was awesome one of the best pizza's we ever had. Went again tonight for the donair and was not disappointed, the best donair I ever had. The staff are awesome and super friendly and the menu is fairly priced. This place is highly recommended and at the top of my list.
Stopped in looking for a delicious donair dinner and the hungry hut delivered! The large donair is indeed LARGE, and in no way did the hungry hut skimp on any ingredients. The meat was extremely flavourful, plenty, and cooked to perfection, in perfect ratio with all other ingredients. Bonus points for being very fairly priced, worth every cent. The staff were lovely to talk to, very friendly and polite. I would 100% add the hungry hut to your list if you’re looking for a new go to donair spot. Overall amazing taste and experience!
You'd better be hungry when you order from here beautiful donaire "she's a meaty" and just the right amount of love goes into it and what would you expect from the loving family that own it. Mad love and much respect for caring like you do. The neighbor
Went here twice this weekend after being suggested to me by a teacher and they are amazing! Right off the bat you can tell it's family run just off the atmosphere and the way they almost treat you like family. I had the donair plate the first time , and a double cheeseburger with bacon, fries and a side order of gravy. Both times the food was fantastic. Best tasting food I've had in a long time. And most of all they do not skimp on ingredients! That donair plate was LOADED! And I'm definitely full after this meal! The last two times I was in Dartmouth I searched "hidden gems" in hopes of finding a place like this place and I'm glad to have gotten to meet this family of smart, caring hard working individuals. And have tried their mouth watering food! This place is certainly a hidden gem and each one of the staff members makes it shine. I'm excited to go there to try a sub or a pizza next time im in Dartmouth 😁
Awesome service ✨ Have tried a few donairs, but this one is the best so far 👌 highly recommended 👍 Poutine was good but a little salty for my liking.
Super friendly people!! I ordered the Donair with cheese, I think it's my favourite in Halifax/Dartmouth now. It was super good! And not crazy messy like most donairs. My favorite before I tried this was Tony's Donair. But hungry hut prepare theirs with much more care, and it shows. That is why this is now my favorite Donair. Thank you
Good pizza and friendly staff. Donair sauce could be a touch sweeter for my liking but otherwise excellent.
The food here is absolutely fabulous. This is a family owned business and customers are treated like family. You will never leave hungry, for sure! Delivery is available on a cash only basis, but phone them to make sure they deliver in your area. They have a great variety of food, as seen in one of my photos. They're my favorite place for both ordering from home and also eating in. I highly recommend Hungry Hut.
Amazing place, definitely recommend to everyone, the quality and quantity are on point, it cannot get better than this Vegetarian options: Yes!
Super cordial staff. Loved the place. 10/10. Would recommend.
Food
Friendly staff, delicious food. I felt like I was a regular customer on my first visit.
Dedicated customers loose respect
My first expérience in this restaurant , The pizza was very delicious , the staff are super friendly , im definately coming back again
Lovely Family Owned Business. Great Place to stop for a Donair or Sub.
Great food. Excellent donairs. The owners are the kind of people you want to hug
Great place for local pizza, lot of variety, ready fast. Staff are very friendly and always remember you.
Always so friendly, fast, and delicious. Best donairs around.
Ive been going to The Hut for over 15 years. Their food is delicious and they have the best donair meat in the city, in my opinion.
Great place, friendly service and great pizza. My first time there and my pizza was amazing.
Original post 2019: Sam and family are possibly THE friendliest business owners Ive ever encountered in HRM. My friend mentioned them to me years ago when he was a regular, where they knew his voice from just the phone. Since I moved to Dartmouth three years ago, I obviously had to try it. Tried the pizza sub, the panzerotti/ponzo/calzone and a Cape Breton combination (although to them its just a three-topping pizza). Lol All tasty and Id get again! The pizza has a generous amount of cheese, which is important to me. Want to try other things on their menu soon. Have been back many times with my friend and todays visit (Valentines Day 2024), tried the Hawaiian. Loaded with thinly shaved ham, some good chunks of pineapple, lots of cheese - overall very tasty.
Nice friendly owner and excellent service to customers.
Family owned business - my #1 go to for take out. The staff are all family and some of my favourite people. Great portions and fresh.
My favorite place for donair...I love this family . They are the most friendly people youll ever meet and the food is great..
Very nice people, with super tasty donairs
Great donairs and pizza. The staff are super kind.
We ordered to eat in but owners stated they would prefer if we didnt???? Not sure why as there were tables available. Food was good but not great. Not sure if I would go back.
Great place, great food, friendly people
This place has the best food and the best prices in town. The people who work there are really nice too and friendly. I had the best pizza pocket in town and my husband had a donair that he says was awesome.
Good donairs, friendly people
always awesome, I go their so often they know me and my family by name and what we order love them, always friendly and have quality food. best donaor in town.
Best Donair Ive ever had and a super friendly owner
Always satisfied. Good pizza and donair, nice family.
Best Donairs in Dartmouth!! Ive yet to find a better Donair in Dartmouth, if you havent tried Hungry Hut, youre missing out! Food
Best large donairs around, a little hidden gem and they have great deals too, I love their deep fried pepperoni too! Awesome staff!!
Hungry Hut has been a staple in the Dartmouth community for as long as I can remember. The food is amazing, especially the donair pockets (my fave), but the service is really what makes this place special. My partner and I both used to come here as kids and Hana always lets us know how sweet it is that she sees us together now. Everyone is always positive, smiling and happy to see you, whether its been a day, a week or a year you can always count on the Family of Hungry Hut to accept you and welcome you home. We love Hungry Hut, from the mozzarella sticks, roast beef subs, donairs, all the way to the pizza, garlic fingers and deep fried pepperoni, theres nothing on their menu that they dont make perfectly. Support local and you wont be disappointed, become part of the Hungry Hut family
Great food, even better people. The kind of family run business that form the backbone of Downtown Dartmouth.
Not great for building customer loyalty when theyre closed during hours they claim to be open. Sunday 4pm nobody home.
Vegetarian options: Fresh veggies. Made the difference. Food
It says its open on google but its 4:42 pm and the place looks pretty desolate, has it shut down?
Hours of operation are wrong. No hours posted in the store, they must just wing it
One of the best pizza shops around with the one of the best donairs
Best pizza place in Dartmouth. Best customer service in Dartmouth. All these bad reviews saying the hours of operation are wrong is because they had a death in the family and were closed for over 3 months. Please dont judge this gem of a pizza place based off those reviews! They have updated their hours and you can find that on their website. Ive been going to Hungry Hut for over 15 years and you wont find many places as passionate as them! Ive tried nearly every item on their menu and they do everything good. But I highly recommend their Donairs!
Best hamburger ever! Pizza here is awesome.
BEST DONAIRS AROUND! Sam and Hannah are always a pleasure to chat with too!
Ill be back! family enjoyed me bringing your donairs across provinces! they approve
Amazing donairs!
Best donairs in the city. Super friendly people too! Google has asked me if anything has changed and to update this review, so: Still the best donairs in the city. Super friendly people too!
First tried this spot last night, donair was freaking awesome! Shout outs to Sam, Bud, and papa John. Very nice family
Family run, excellent food! Well be back!
Amazing people and delicious food.
The staff are amazing. Friendly, inviting and professional. Pizza is excellent. Good price. A secret place to try.
Best pizza ever!! Not only incredible food, but the staff is so great and friendly. It s always a joy to pick up our pizza!
My favourite spot in the HRM for donairs!! Delicious and the flavour is the best! This is a small family owned business and when you walk in you feel like family. Literally Hannah, Sam or Ma will ask you how you ve been doing and remember your face and what you ve told them. I can t recommend them enough. It s a beautiful thing when delicious food is paired with people with big hearts. Covid has hit hard and we re so glad you re here Hungry Hut crew! Much love! Keep being your wonderful selves!
Great food great people. Its always a treat chatting while picking up my food.
Best pizza around! Theyre a family run business , Ive been going here since I was a kid and they never ever disappoint. Some of the kindest people I know, who just happen to make the best pizza around. Fast, friendly & quality service - if you havent had a chance to check them out please go do so !
Doesnt get any better than this
Great food, and such friendly staff. The Donair pizza is amazing, and the poutine is soo good.
Every time the food is awesome, the service is even better.
Tasty pizza and veggie wrap... 5 Star food!!!
Good pizza good people
Fantastic family run and very personable. Food is always fresh and delicious, my go to donair plate shop.
Amazing service, friendly family feel. My family loves the food. Especially the pizza and Donair. Best hamburger my son ever had!
Everytime i call theres always something with this place why they cant deliver any food summer or winter it dont matter and food is alright but i would not order from this place
Nice tasty fresh food but the wait time was a little long
great place to order food from, my personal favorite place for donairs in the city
From delicious donair meat to cheezy crispy crusted pizza, panzarotti cooked to perfection and fresh crisp salad. I cannot say enough amazing things about this place. From the first visit mear days after moving to HRM we have been treated like family and have always felt welcome. The customer service is leagues above any other pizza joint we have been to across Canada. After doing our diligence and trying a few other locations in the area we have repeatedly come back here for our late night cravings, days were not up to cooking or simply just craving a well built pie. The portions are always generous. Perhaps some time I will get a chance to take a few glamor shots of the food before it is devoured, but dont hold your breath.
Very good food for very reasonable prices
Best donair meat in town 100%
Great food, staff really friendly
The first time you go there for the Donair and their pizza. And after you go back to the family. Good food and incredible people.
Great food great people
I went into go get a wrap and everything was normal. They were just talking and then one of the employees start cussing a bit and I don t mind it too much because I m used to cussing but then once the woman starts making my rap, she touches it without any gloves on and touches everything with any gloves, but she proceeds to put gloves on when she touches the money, but not the food, I would recommend asking for them to put on gloves before they make you food. There was also blood around the tables. I m not sure if it s old and it does need some cleaning.
Love the donair plate. Great service by a very nice family.
Delicious donair meat-- the best in town + the friendliest service ever. What more could you ask for? Extremely fair prices and always made to feel welcome. A must try-- you will return.
Amazing food amazing people
Enjoying some Hungry Hut Donairs in Quebec on this stormy day. A little taste of home when home is so far away Thanks
Great local pizza place!
Great pizza shop! Friendly staff. Looking forward to going back.
Best Donair in town, you will be a customer for life if you try them!
Very good food coming out of here.
The food was alright. My son says he really enjoyed his cheeseburger, I had a chicken burger. It could have used more lettuce and cheese and maybe a house sauce if that was a thing at Hungry Hut. The fries were piping hot (10/10/ but were incredibly. . bland. Nice big pile of fries went with our burgers. Thanks for serving us Hungry Hut
Their donair tastes amazing. I am usually stuck between their donair or the donair bubba sub. The sub bun is super soft and it made to perfection. The pizza is also really great they load on the cheese. The family that owns the establishment are very welcoming and down to earth people. They want to get to know each customer who walks in that door and that s what keeps me coming back.
Amazing menu, prices are great. They have big portions and super friendly.
I go to hungry Hut all the time & get their pizza & it is fantastic, the prices are super reasonable. I also love their donairs ( just like everyone else in this review section). I had my mom come visit me from Ontario & she had never had east coast donair before, I had to take her here & she said it was the best shes ever had the family running it is so kind & friendly, I bring all my friends & family here cause I know theyll get nothing but the best! Thanks guys!
Fantastic food at odd hours, staff was friendly, everything was made to order. Would love to see more places like this. Cant recommend a visit to any visitors to the area highly enough, has some of the best donair and burgers and the prices are low.
Top notch service and hands down some of the BEST donair garlic fingers in Halifax no contest, dont even bother trying. You have to give them a call and ask Sam to make you his shaved donair meat garlic fingers with extra cheese and a side of sauce. I challenge your tastebuds to find a better single serving for 12 bucks elsewhere. I dare you
Great family run establishment, best donairs ever. Just as good as my first time many years putting in natural gas in front of the store.
Great food
Probably the best Donair I have ever eaten !!!
Best donairs and pizza in Dartmouth, and the staff are the friendliest people around. Great prices and great service!
Great food.
Love the food and services too
Authentic people making authentic food.
The family that runs this place is top notch and definately add to the experience. The quality of food is great and consistent. Whether you go today or three weeks or three months from now its the same consistent good food. Favorite pizza place in HRM.
Good pizza but the people are fake.
I went in and asked for a burger and they put a frozen burger patty from Costco on a flat top and said here you go enjoy.... if i wanted a frozen burger from Costco i could go to costco
Nice family run the place. Food is ok.
Has always been a favorite spot for donair since High school
Fast delivery, friendly staff and Best pizza in the city!
Great food in downtown Dartmouth hidden gem in our city
Amazing family and even better food
Best pizza Ive ever eaten
Just ordered a bacon double cheeseburger and it s one of the best I ve ever had. Super friendly staff as well. Great establishment.
Best donair pizza on the Dark Side - love the family vibe, and they are always happy to see new and repeat customers. The people are as warm as the pizzas they make! Order here, its a good buy!
Absolutely above and beyond service. Will remember your name and order, true people who love the community and their food just as much.
beautiful man that makes a beautiful fish n chips
Great food and friendly vibes. Ate here 3 times over the past few weeks and been happy as can be every time. They are run by a very friendly and thoughtful family, who always ask how your doing with a smile on their faces. They are also very quick and efficient, from my 3 times they were exact with the estimate they gave me (20mins on average). Food: the pizza was really good, especially with the side of cooked pepperoni (not spicy at all so anyone can handle it) Wings were exactly how i like them (i i asked for well done with sauce on the side) cheese sticks hit the spot, and ceaser wraps were decent with real fresh bacon and chicken but i feel needed more sauce. The only negative thing id say about this place is it almost looks like an old run down corner store from the outside. Weve passed by it multiple times in the past not knowing what it was. Definitely dont judge this book by its cover.
I love the Hungry Hut - in fact it is our Friday night pizza spot. We always get the large pizza special with 4 toppings - good bang for your buck. Their crust is incredible and good amount of toppings. It is consistently good too! We like our pizza well done so I usually ask for that. The family is super friendly - over the phone and in person - lovely folks. We will continue to support this great family business in downtown Dartmouth! I cant speak for the rest of the menu as I havent tried it but the pizza is delicious. Keep up the great pizza-making and business Hungry Hut! :)
I had the donair with cheese, it was delicious First time there and the staff was super friendly. Being new to the area, they welcomed me. A great homey feeling. Definitely will go back.
I have ordered so much food from there. I miss them already and I have only been moved out of Dartmouth one day.
Best food in the maritimes, you will never find a better Donair anywhere but here..
Amazing food, family business, great and personable service
Great staff and great food , I recommend this place to everyone
Staff is very friendly and the food is always good.
Hands down the rudest service ive ever gotten. Im very disappointed about it since I was always a fan of this place. The manager is a complete idiot and I hope they find new staff
Best donairs in the city.
Amazing donair & customer service
Best pizza in town and the staff has treated us like family since we started coming. Family run, and will take the time to really get to know you. Would reccomend 10/10.
Awesome people. Awesome food. Everytime.
Best pizza in town and great staff
I can honestly say best pizza Ive ever had!!.....I can promise you wont be disappointed
Great family business
Great home made fast food/pizza place! Love their burgers, pizza, and garlic fingers.
Best pizza,donair etc in the city,been coming here for years they get to know your name and treat you like family Great Family
Always a great time in here. The service is second to none the people are delightful. They have been serving me for over 20 years between this location and the old school Toulanys store on Prince Albert. Definitely my go to place whenever Im on town. I would recommend this place to anyone.
Such hospitable people, immaculate place and great value.
This place has great delivery, service, and pizza. Absolutely wonderful people and excellent food and great portions. A family-run Pizza/Burger type place.
The sauce is unique! It was a nice change :)
Best donairs in the city hands down staff are wonderful and its always a great trip there
The pizza and garlic fingers there are so delicious I could eat it almost everyday!
Favorite Donairs in the city, and the best staff you could ever find! Love all of their food!
Come for the pizza, stay for the donairs, come back tomorrow for the garlic fingers. Everything these guys make is delicious if youre in the mood for some pizza place fare. They oughta be teaching donair school. The meat is delicious, perfectly chewy but with a satisfying crisp. The sauce is textbook. The veggies are always fresh. The pitas are prepared awesome so you get a nice mix of cripsy and chewy - they are never a soggy mess. Portions are generous across the entire menu, including the pizza toppings and cheese on the garlic fingers. If youre not convinced already, the family working here are so genuine and friendly. You leave this place with a delicious dinner and nice feeling that youve supported some great people. Never change, hungry hut.
Excellent customer service and people.
Quiet open clean friendly staff
First time I went to Hungry Hut I was barely 12 years old. They welcomed me from day 1. Always get what you want and it tastes great. Love the staff to bits. Im 27 now and they are still the same lovely family they were 15 years ago. 6 stars.
Likely the best Donair I ve ever had!!!! If you re in the Halifax area it s a must! Family owned old school business doing it the right way. The sauce is the key to any Donair and it s outstanding here. Great service, not much more they can do better here. IMO better than KOD!
The only thing I dont like about this place is there is no debit/credit at the door... otherwise FAB!!
Great pizza and garlic fingers made by warm and friendly people! I was in town for work with my young teen aged son and they welcomed us and joked around with my boy. Food was flavorful and plentiful for a great price, and we even had lunch for the next day.
This is the best place to eat donair in Halifax and very underrated. The first thing I like about the restaurant, the atmosphere so welcoming and its family owned, doing it the old way and the service was amazing. Thanks again, go eat here!
Great tasting Pizza and amazing staff.... feels like family. I will be back!!!
Food is really good and staff are very friendly
They always greet you with a smile and the food is great!!
decent. extremely friendly
Great food and friendly and welcoming people.
Mediocre
Donair was ok, not great. Too much cold sauce. Not enough veg. & reheated meat.
very very small donair for the price of a larger please dont go there
Whats up with handling food with your bare hands? And the 5 slices of donair in a medium?
Spent a few days in Dartmouth and came here based on the reviews. The food may not be fancy, but its delicious. Felt like family while we were there; everyone was so kind and friendly. If I ever find myself back in town Ill definitely be grabbing another meal from them!
Food so good
Best food and best service always! The staff is fantastic
Pleasant surprise. Walked by a few times and was uncertain but they were well reviewed so we decided to give them a try. Garlic fingers were on point!
This place has great delivery, service, and pizza. I am always pleased with the service and food I receive here. There is parking at the back of the building, and there are few tables inside, if you want to eat inside, instead of grabbing it to go. If you are in Dartmouth, it is definitely worth your time to check out Hungry Hut!
awesome food. love the pizza and garlic fingers combo. Also the bubba sub is delicious. Staff are friendly and wonderful. take an effort to know their regulars.
Best Donairs. Nicest family
absolutely wonderful people and excellent food and great portions.
Food is ok
Cheap & delicious. Great customer service too.
Donair just right
Great food and friendly staff!
Great food. Wonderful owners. Very Friendly and appreciate all who walk through their doors.
Very tasty nice helpful staff, made me very welcome. Decent prices also.
Great service and family run makes it even better. Good prices too.
This is THE place for a pizza in Dartmouth! The nicest people on the planet running the place. Family owned and family operated! A class act from start to finish. You will not be disappointed!
Was alright
Some of the BEST food youll ever find anywhere! If only I lived in Halifax, I would happily eat there every day. 10 STARS!
My search for a local pizza spot took me to a lot of places... until I landed at The Hungry Hut. This is where my search stopped. A family run business that makes pizza, donairs, wings, burgers...etc. They are fantastic people that make fantastic food. I LOVE their pizza and their donairs. Whenever its pizza night, we order and pick up... just so we can stop by for a visit.
Ive never eaten here. Its across the street from where my parents live.
Great fast food, friendly service and they deliver. Home cut fries and Mums homemade gravy. Super pizza and donairs
Pizza was cheap. Cardboard crust and the place smelled really bad... Like an old dumpster
Amazing family-run Pizzeria. Food is always great!
Great people very friendly, treat everyone like family.
