109 Regina Ave, Thunder Bay, ON P7B 5B4, Canada
The pizza was good, the lady who helped us was nice. I think it was a little over priced, but then again what isn't now days?
It's actually been a few years since I had their pizza, but let me tell you, the pizza was so awful, it could be used as a tourist attraction or a YouTube food reviewer video idea, there's no way another pizza place could do worst. For what it's worth hopefully things have changed over the years.
We had lunch there today and it was great! The pizza was delicious but the staff were even better! They definitely know how to treat the customers. Extremely friendly and even have time to visit. We were looking for pizza for lunch and so glad we chose Frankies. There were a couple negative reviews posted but we are glad that didn’t deter us. I would choose this place over any chain pizza because of the atmosphere and pizza!!! Keep up the great job!!
Stopped going there because of the staff. Oh well LOTS of other good pizza places. No loss customers are a dime a dozen right!
I’m mostly disappointed because I had my expectations set based on the first picture that came up under the business profile, which was of a completely different style of pizza than they serve here. If I had looked closer, I would have seen the other pictures and known better, but I made a rushed decision based on that first image and really regretted it. The pizza here has a very thick crust with a crunchy better and bready middle. There was very very little sauce. The price was affordable, the staff was very friendly and my order was ready quickly. If you like the style of pizza they serve here it’s a great option, I just don’t like it and wish that picture was not included on the businesses Google profile.
Got 11 lbs of wings for brunch, ate them one by one without breaking eye contact with the small framed manager who drives a big truck. Finished them all. They needed to wheel me outa there when I was done. 10/10
I needed a quick bite before leaving town. I grabbed three different slices from Franki's and enjoyed all three. The slices he gives you are bigger than my head, and i have a huge noggin by the way. I think I bit off more than I could chew with today's three slice venture. Fresh ingredients and friendly staff. I look forward to tasting one of their freshly cooked pizzas after trying the ready made slices. Wheelchair accessible parking and entrance.
We asked a staff member at the hotel to recommend a pizza place. She said Franki's was "super awesome". Well, the pizza was very good. Nice medium crust, tasty sauce, generous amount of cheese and toppings. They promised to deliver it within an hour but it arrived in 30 minutes. Recommended.
Will be back for another slice
Pizza through on a conveyor ? Seriously wrong. And the chicken wings were way under cooked.
Always good. Consistent and friendly
Came late, they still made the best pizza ever! Let us sit down and eat, customer service never dwindled even a bit. Nothing but smiles and professionalism. 5 stars on literally everything. Vash and Luca thank you sooooo much
Found this gem by accident. It was so good, now Ill make sure to stop by that pizzeria everytime i drive by thunderbay
Best pizza in town!!!!
Wonderful, welcoming place with fantastic food.
The pizza is always superb
Wheelchair accessibility: Couple of spots close by Food
Excellent service
Had the two house special deal tonight. Meat and Frankies.. excellent, just excellent. My favourite pizza by far in the city
Honestly didnt live up to what everyone had been saying about the place. Service wasnt great - watched a few people come in after waiting for more than 15 minutes to be told wait for another 7 because its still in the oven (but they had actually forgotten to put the pizzas in the oven). At the end of it all there wasnt a garbage bin to throw out my empty pizza box, and judging my the look of the fellow I gave it to it was not okay?
Debit machine wasnt working so I could not place my order. Come home to find out the debit machine actually did charge me after all. Went back and not only did I not get a refund I didnt get any food. So Im out 25$ and they lost a life time customer over it. Saying they dont have the money on their end as they stand and stare at a screen less cash register.....how do you even know you didnt get my money? Because my bank statement sure says you have it? Next time issue refund and you wont lose a life time customer who lives just down the road over 25$. Now I have to wait a week for the bank to refund me....
Tasty pizza, took 10 minutes longer than expected.
I swear the sauce was rotten the pizza tasted fowl and it left a stench in my cabin I rented I really hope for this business this was just a bad day and they forgot to switch out the tomato sauce for the pizza 0/10 .btw I have 2 growing boys here and they couldn t get past 1 piece 2 large pizzas for 55$ down the tube
A few years ago I had good experiences with Franki s. The pizza was decent and the service was friendly. That has not been the case over the last year. One time I ordered a pizza for pick up and I was given the time that it would be ready, but when I arrived they had no record of my order and therefore no pizza had been made. With a strict time schedule and family waiting at home, this was a big deal. Most recently, when I tried to order, no one answered my call. I called several times. Confirming that I had used the correct number each time. I like to support local businesses over national chains, but it will no longer be Franki s.
Not sure if it s only me but I ve had the pep slice from the counter, I think it s Brooklyn style, and both times they just killed my stomach. Had 1 today to see if it ll happen again and yup stuck on toilet.
My favourite pizza place in town, they have the bet panzerottis. They always have great service. Went there again tonight to grab dinner and the young man behind thr counter was amazingly kind, polite and fast. ****Super sad edit**** we havent been to Frankis since February of 2022 because of poor customer service from Sebastian. I see my review reaches a lot of people and the spirit is still there but I refuse to go there anymore. In Feb of 2022 I called in our usual order. Went to pick it up and there was an issue, Sebastian told me I ordered a pizza and not a panzerotti. We only ordered panzis but ok I didnt have time to wait the 15 mins for a new one. So I asked formy money back. Sebastian felt it was necessary to explain to me that I ordered wrong, fixated on it. I didnt care I needed my refund so I can go grab something for all these kids before their event. Sebastian continued to tell me I ordered wrong. I was trying to explain it didnt matter I just needed the refund I was now going to be late. Sebastian then tells me hes not giving me my money back. Super cute. Other people come in and he starts acting like Im out of control. It was a real shame. Im sure they dont miss my business but Ill be honest - they dont deserve the benefit of my great review. Sorry Franki.
Visited Frankis for the first time today. Everyone was friendly and polite, and our pizza was out in what seemed like no time. The pizza was fresh and delicious. Chain restaurants cant touch the taste and quality of a freshly made pizza. I will definitely be returning on my next trip into town.
Had food delivered it was hot, tasted excellent and the delivery was exceptionally great. Keep up The great work. Thank you Food : 5/5
The staff were nice. The food was ok.
Food was great, a cute little Pizzeria with friendly staff and fresh pizza we watch come out of the oven ! Staff informed us it had been opened for almost 22 years.
Great place for a stop during a days drive! Very warm welcome and staff, vegetarian option possible and pizza ready in 5 minutes! We really recommend this place if you want to eat good pizza in addition to benefiting from a great customer experience <3
Absolutely love Frankies!!
Best pizza in Thunder Bay. Worth every cent. Thank you Frank. Food : 5/5
Fantastic staff, great pizza, and very reasonable prices. Highly recommended
Love the doe Franki
Decent.
Pizza is good but need to work on the service part abit
Only pizza in town that I dont need dip or hot sauce to enhance the flavour. Great pizza. Pep and cheese is best
Best pizza place ever!
The 2 young men working didnt wanna work. Would never go back not even for a free pizza.
Fast inexpensive, great staff, local, best pizza in Thunder Bay.... need I say more?
Love ur chef salads
Nothing special, got a vegetable and cheese pizza it tasted like any other pizza place.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent. Plan to visit again.
Franks is awesome. Everytime I come back to town I make sure to stop by and get there walking special. Two HUGE slices of pizza and a pop for $8.00 The pizza tastes great and it seems like theres always a fresh pizza coming out of the oven. Dont pass on this place, its a must try.
Best Pizza and Wings in town. Love this place!
It was a super clean place! The service was good and the prices were a bit high but still not exorbitant. The pizza was cut terribly, the base was basically chopped tomatoes and hot sauce. It was too acidic and the seasoning was bland. The only redeeming thing about the place is the people but the menu and the portion control needs to be at a better standard.
Been going since I was 10. Im 25 now and still brag to my friends all over the world about a large pep from franks. From delivery to pickup, Im always left with 100% customer satisfaction and great service. 10/10 will be a customer for life.
BIG delicious SLICES, perfect for a quick affordable meal before returning to the road
Good deal for 2 slices and a pop , friendly and the pizza is fantastic
Pizza with an authentic pizzaria flavor, panzerotti are awesome and courteous staff.
Local pizza place with their own style of traditional
Your typical average pizza place tried it a few times wasnt really impressed
Wings are not edible and very slimey
Excellent service and yummy pizza
Awesomely delicious pizza . Highly recommended .
Great pizza, I bought two slices they were huge and excellent tasting. They had a good selection of by the slice for lunch and of course full menu as well.
I think this is the best pizza in all of Canada I cant wait to get back there for another pie
Pizza dough was under cooked. Pizza was sliced in a hurry, some pieces massive some merely slivers. Overcharged me $2.00 too. Staff was friendly though.
Staff is friendly and helpful. prices are reasonable and the Pizzas are good
DELICIOUS!!! Super friendly service, and amazing pricing
Love there pizza
Usually really good pizza. Had a few slices lately and been super dry/ not enough sauce. Needs to be fresh slices. Usually good pizza i will be trying again soon. Hopefully they start throwing out pizzas if sitting to long Lack of sauce
Unfortunately my Mother ordered a pizza and was met with someone who clearly does not like his job. She found the menu online, not their own site as it is defunct, but some other random site. This menu listed salads so of course ordering one would make sense right? Well not according to the guy taking the order, he informed her he had been there for 8 years and they have not had salads since. Well perhaps if you had a current menu on the internet people wouldnt ask for stuff you dont have, not rocket science. Also she asked for help with toppings and again she was met with the same attitude. Hey Franki s it may be a good idea to have someone on the phone taking orders who has customers service skills and can deal with all sorts of people including the elderly. Ordering a pizza shouldnt be an upsetting experience as it was for her. Nice one, you have lost a customer.
Better than the national chains Its local. Its good. And I dont have to cook.
Absolutely delicious. Extremely polite and friendly staff.
Best pizza in town
Franki is the man. Try the chicken Alfredo pizza.
Usually we have a great pizza from Franki s, but today when we ordered extra cheese we actually got less than a regular serving of cheese. I guess they pocketed the $6 we paid for the extra cheese. Maybe they needed the money to cover their covid expenses!!!
Best pizza in thunder bay Kids and I did a pizza-off 1st Frankies 2nd New York subway 3rd place golden bakery 4th pizza pizza(extra cheese) 5th place pizza hut Honorable mentions Boston pizza Eat local pizza
My goto place for great pizza and friendly service.
Fast service for a fair price.
Great food and environment! Love it
Also super nice staff, pizza is very good, think it may be the best in town
Top quality pizza from top quality people
One of the best slices in town
Tasty pizza. Lots of cheese and meat.
Great gluten free crust. Best tasting pizza in Canada. Frankis topping is delicious and generous, make your transcanada trip worth it and stop at Frankis Pizzeria
expensive, not that great
Used to be good pizza but one of my friends who used to work their not too long ago said one of the new hires can t make the pizzas right and messes them up. Also the past few times I ve ordered from them it s been different and not cooked evenly/properly so that s why I m lowering my review. Unfortunately I think they might be going downhill and I find that very sad as they used to be my favourite pizza place. Unfortunately it isn t anymore.
Terrible, probably the worst pizza i ever had. Never delivered the Dips we ordered and charged me $75 for a medium pizza, a small pizza and 1lbs of wings, thats $35 a pizza, shocking and shameful. Absolutely terrible and would not call here again under no circumstances. Sadly im being forced to give this place 1 star and not less.
Best pizza in town.
Excellent service, amazing pizza!!
Its my favourite pizza in Thunder bay!
Good pizza, friendly group of people
Deliciousness. As always. Thank you!
Always the best!!!!
Pretty good pizza. I wish they had a larger variety of multiple pizza, however the most they have for deals are two, so it gets expensive for a large family that needs to buy four at a time.
The pizza is amazing and service wass great. Recomend to anyone in the area
Awesome customer service, favorite place in Thunder Bay to stop in for slices of pizza on the go
Great food
great pizza
Best pizza in town
Always on time. Great pizza including gluten free.
Best pizza pies in town.
Good pizza, one of my favorites in thunder bay.
I like triangles.
Great pizza
An experience certainly not to be repeated. Very narrow external space, so much so that it prevents smooth passage between one table and another. Almost poor table service, poor food quality and excessive quantities of seasoning in both sandwiches and pizzas. I strongly advise against those who want to spend a pleasant evening in company.
Really wanted a good pizza and that is just what we got! Small restaurant the seems mostly for takeout (few tables inside). Pizza was tasty and enough for supper for 2 people, and left overs for lunch the next day. (This pizza is not as good as others when served cold after being in the fridge overnight)
Local pizza spot. Kind of small inside but, the make a killer pizza. The crust is just the right thickness and the amount of toppings is perfect! And they are delicious. The only issue I had was the oil had accumulated in the bottom of my pizza box by the time I had picked it up, and it led to one of the boxes kind of ripping open when I get home. Thankfully none of the pizza fell!
Great customer service and quality pizza!
Came into town and was planning on having a panzarotti . Ordered 2 and they both were flavourless, with minimal meats. Not the Frankis I remember. I was very disappointed
Great pizza good prices quick service
Reasonable pricing and delicious pizza! Also the dipping/dressing sizes are generous in comparison to other places Ive been.
Great meat lovers pizza
Friendly service, excellent pizza, will definitely be back.
Excellent food
The pizza is always great
Impeccable customer service, delicious pizza and packed salads. However, make sure you specify no meat on the salads if you dont want it on there and theyre happy to make it without.
Top 3 pizza place in Thunder Bay. Service is excellent, pizza is delicious. It is our go-to for take out pizza.
Its alright. poor selection of wings
Great pizza! Friendly and courteous staff. Highly recommended!
Never let down by this place! My favorite spot for pizza!
Good for
Good place to go for lunch or supper lot of different foods service is fast and friendly parking is free
Good pizza but the staff could use some better phone etiquette, even for a pizza restaurant
Pizza is good, people are friendly, and theyre always generous with their cheese!
Really enjoyed the pizza, very yummy.
I work near by. Every time I go in the staff is welcoming and the slices are always on point. Keep up the good work fellas.
Always great pizza
Good pizza. Had to wait an extra 15 mins after what they said because they forgot my order. Pizza is good though.
Excellent, was passing through Thunder Bay. Will go here again when I pass through.
Thin crust pizza is the best
Love their chicken alfredo
The pizza is very good. You can eat on site but its limited. No glass, no utensils and paper plates. We ordered the combo with a 2L of liquor so we were a little embarrassed to drink it. They were nice enough to change it for cans.
Best dam pizza and panzerotti in Tbay
Good pie.
Taste is ok, but attention to detail is not there considering how much they charge for a pizza. What I mean. Is sauce over the edge, cheese over the edge. This leads to burnt pizza while cooking. Also they dont tend to the dough that separates causing large doughy bubbles in the pizza. Basically very sloppy.
always awesome
Good pizza, ok wings
best pizza in town. hands down.
Super friendly staff, awesome food, family atmosphere
Best pizza place in town off of red river
Im so in love with their panzorottis great to dip in their sauce.
Best crust, best sauce and freshest toppings. Ive had all of the pizza in Thunder Bay and this tops them all! Amazing! Excellent customer service and they treat you with respect every time! Super fast delivery even across the city.
Food is good, but the sons owner does not listen to the order when people are placing it. How can you mistake a panzerotti and a pizza? Even worst, he refused to refund the tip when I had the order replaced? I geuss when I go there and he is there, I go elsewhere for my panzerotti.
Its delicious and fast with decent prices.
Ordered two panzarottis. They were under baked, and filled with cheap toppings like canned mushrooms and cheap deli ham. The sauce that was served on the side was just unseasoned thin tomato puree. I hope thats not what they put on their pizza.
We always get really friendly service, and great pizza.
I love their pizza!!!
Best pizza. Homemade goodness.
Best pizza in town
Did a birthday party with make your own pizza. The kids had a great time. Good pizza.
Not bad but you have no business running a pizza place if you somehow think it is a good idea to put pepperoni underneath cheese.
Some of the best pizza in town. Id sharr a photo but it was to good to stop.
Awesome by the slice
They use shaved lunch meat for toppings, and not genuine quality meats. Their cheese and sauce is great.
I eat a ton of pizza. Ive tried a lot of pizza. Local and chain pizza. I always come back to ordering Frankis pizza because they arent just local, but they make delish pizza at some of the best prices in town. Another local place on the south side of town charges something like $4.25 for a single slice of pizza. For almost that same price, $6 all in you get 2 giant slices and a pop at Frankis! My favourite pizza in town!
Good pizza, great price on the slice deal for lunch.
best pizza in town. its fresh always hot and homemade. the owner is very nice and always on site ensuring first class quality on everything he puts out. If your not happy he will fix it. My kids love it; they also eat it every Friday at school. Way better then the nationals down the street. Thunder DAD
Best Pizza Ever, not grease, all done by hand and FRIENDLY PLACE.
Very little toppings, thin crust that was burnt around the edges and made my stomach do flips
So good!!
