1600 32 St, Vernon, BC V1T 2J1, Canada
We are a local pizzeria in Vernon BC that has been locally owned and operated for over 40 years. We sell pizzas, pastas, ice cream, candy, pop and much more. Don't forget our delicious chicken wings, ribs and appetizers. We feature a menu that has all the classic pizzas that you know and love, but also has some creative recipes like the Dill Pickle Pizza.
Ordered 2 medium pizzas, was told to come pick up in 35 minutes, arrived a few minutes early and was told that the pizza was just being put in the oven and would be another 20 minutes. Was told if we waited in the car the pizza would be brought out to us. 25 minutes later still no pizza, I went in to check and was told pizza just came out of the oven and he proceeds to hand me 2 pizzas that were sitting on the counter. When we got home pizza was doughy undercooked and barely warm. Seems pizza was taken out of the oven too early and left on the counter instead of being brought to our car as promised. We have been customers of Jim’s on many occasions but this time and the time before we have been left very disappointed.
I got the most beautiful speech about how this pizza will change my life and honestly, this pizza place always slaps. 10/10 every time. The service is always magic and so is the quality. Our friends adore you guys and come all the way from Kelowna just for your pizza, too. ❤️
Jim's is not where you go for atmosphere - unless you love a family run, team work business that pumps out amazing pizza with fresh ingredients and lots of smiles! There's a reason Jim's has year after year won awards of recognition. It's their pizza! Best in Vernon, by far.
BEST GLUTEN FREE PIZZA IN CANADA! Compliments to the chef and team. Thank you.
Pizza is best in town, too bad the guy at the front can't keep things straight. Had too many waits half an hour or more over what I was told. Tonight someone else got my two large pizzas and I was offered two mediums and $20 bucks off. Sorry pal, I got a family of six to feed, that's why I placed an order for large pizzas. Spend less time focusing on your whole long spiel, everyone is just polite to you and can't actually stand it. Focus on getting things right instead.
Takes WAY TO LONG to get your pizza. I would love to give a higher review cause it’s the most decent pizza in Vernon but twice now we have been told ready in 1hr and when we show up we stand around for 30-40 minutes. We called at 6:15 and left finally at 8pm with our pizza. Just be honest with your customers with an accurate wait time and people won’t be so upset..
Epic. As a first time customer Jim's is without a doubt the best pizza I've had in a long time. If you're not familiar I recommend ordering well in advance it's a busy place and for good reason.
I was in Vernon for couple days and tried few pizza locations and this was definitely the best pizza I had in Vernon. I'm not sure the name of the slice that I tried, but it was recommended by the staff but it was like a spicy Hawaiian.. delicious. Staff is wonderful and the fast talkin' inspirational staff member is a hoot!! Great place, great pizza.
Best !!! Pizza in Vernon !!!
We ordered online for a pizza pick up. The auto response said it would be ready at 6:11pm. It is now 7pm and I have been waiting in my car for 50 mins. This is so unacceptable! Too often this happens. We will not be returning anytime soon.
Pizza was mediocre for the price. Odd that this is the best pizza joint in Vernon.
Our pizza was so good my wife ate the crust.
You wont get the typical pizza taste...Blah. You will LOVE their pizzas. The Philly Cheesesteak is amazing
Wow best place to stop for a slice of real pizza. Taste and quality is like no other! Highly recommend stopping in :) super friendly staff also
I like the by slice option and think the pizza is very flavourful lots cheese fresh toppings and friendly service
Classic Jims pizza. Always hits the spot
Did they change their gluten free crust?? A year ago I left this review, I m not often in Vernon but I ve had amazing pizza from them a few times since. Tonight I was disappointed. The crust was a let down. Service and toppings were still great just sad cause I really loved their gluten free crust. This is one of the best gluten free pizza crusts I have ever had. I do feel like they are a bit toppings heavy, but how can one possibly complain about that. Have had their pizza on three different occasions and every time I ve been impressed. Love that they offer double cut!! Highly recommend my gluten free friends. Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free
2 hour wait for a pizza... absolute joke of a establishment. kept stringing us along saying 10 more minutes 10 more minutes. do not support this joke of a pizza joint
They have the best staff ever!! Very friendly & professional.
Says they close at 10 o clock, but whenever you called them at 9 PM, they ll be closing and they can t serve you. I don t know why they don t change their hours on Google or they should say on Google. Staff leaves at 10 PM or wants to leave at 10 PM Lola s
When Jims pizza place opened more than 40 years ago, the pizza is still as delicious as the day Jims opened!! The variety and selection have changed very little. They have gluten-free crust and ice cream sundays, plus soda drinks, but not wheelchair friendly. Only outside seating. When I say delicious, I mean, Jims pizza is one of the best tasting pizzas in Vernon! You will find Jims at the top of hospital Hill. Yummm!
Jim s is my favourite pizza in Vernon. By FAR. The crust is excellent, never gets soggy, and is well seasoned. Their sauce is amazing. The toppings are all fresh and high quality. The atmosphere gets 5 stars for the wonderful Magnetic Miracles dude. Best pizza in Vernon, and I ve tried them all! Highlights include the Hawaiian, the shrimp and the hot honey Newyorker. It s super easy to customize those into the perfect lasagne is great, too! Vegetarian options: The veg options here are awesome. There is also a gluten free crust. Parking: There are only 3 spots, but people are in and out quickly and we ve never had a problem. Plenty of street parking as well
Plenty of room for improvement but this place is still at the top of its game. The pizzas are amazingly tasty! Parking: Parking lot is small and has limited spaces. I recommend ordering before pickup and showing up on time for your order.
Best pizza in town
Jim s pizza is the best option for pizza. I can almost guarantee that even someone who hates pizza will fall in love with this pizza. The crust is crunchy and delicious. It has the perfect amount of cheese and the toppings are incredible. The employees are very friendly and give recommendations! When I first tried Jim s, my soul exited my body and gave a high five to God himself. Anybody who lives on planet earth, even aliens need to visit this place. I am all in for the intergalactic brothers
Wonderful old fashioned pizza.
Love the ice cream as much as the pizza now
As long as youre okay to wait up to two hours for Pizza, you will not find a friendlier group and the pizza is made with absolute love. For me , worth the wait!
Shawn is the best
Best pizza in the Okanagan!
Friendly people but low quality ingredients and they made 2 errors on our order. Im from NY and the quality of the pizza ingredients, especially the cheese, was very low. +2 for service. -2 for low quality ingredients, -1 for messing up two things on the order (although he did offer to fix it). Update: A reply to the owners response... I recommend that you check with your cheese supplier, they might be ripping you off. I only get a sinus headache when low quality ingredients are used. I got a sinus headache after eating at Jims. This is why I say check the cheese quality and check with your supplier. Try a different source for your cheese and compare.
The best pizza in town as well as some amazing service.
Sean was excellent in person, definitely a character exuding passion for what he has created. The Super Sunday Special S mores pizza did not disappoint to round out our culinary experience, overall everything absolutely delicious.
Jims is some of the best pizza in town (if not the best) and the staff are always so friendly. Make sure to call ahead because they get pretty busy and sometimes there is a wait.
Was a deliver u do not sure on the atmosphere. The last on the phone. Was very helpful but over the pizza was a bit of a miss. I eat a lot of pizza from a lot of different place. The crust was a little to use bar not much for the extra sauce I asked for. Overall I would give it 6.5 out of 10
The GUY haha always has something weird and funny to say and the pizzas incredible. I moved to Summerland from Armstrong and Ill stop there everytime I happen to go through Vernon
Always delicious and ready
As it says its the best pizza in vernon. Im from kelowna myself but we travel to vernon quite alot for day trips. Both my gf and I agree that this is the best pizza out of all kelowna also. They are not cheap with toppings which is great to see cuz these days everyone is getting with everything not these guys. Great pizza. They sell pizza by the slice and there huge pieces so if ur ever in the area definitely try it out
Amazing pizza and service! First time visiting and will be back
Best Pizza in town served by high energy staff. The weekly special was Dill Pickle which was magnificent. Highly recommended. Parking: Lots of free parking. Ive never had a problem finding parking. Wheelchair accessibility: Easy in and out for wheelchair accessibility.
Awesome
I order five or six times a month, same pizza every time and always order a light bake. 60% of the time they get it right, other times its either an over baked pizza all together, or like today my pizza was maybe half cooked, as if they expected me to put it in the oven myself. which I did.. two pieces at a time and my tiny toaster oven. its frustrating because you pay first.. you dont get to see your pizza till they hand it to you after you pay. Im going to have to ask to look at it from now on before I pay. Ive had some other pizzas in town and the crust tastes pre-made frozen.. so at least here I get 60% chance of a good pizza. anywhere else it would be 100% no to my liking. its a bit pricier here and I accept that but when the pizza comes not cooked it makes me want my money back. when I phoned about the overcooked pizza I got no comment at all.. not a oh were sorry or how can we make it up to you so I wont even bother phoning about this pizza. its just time for a frank review ps I would have taken a picture but my mobility is so bad that I would have had to spend 10 minutes going to get my phone and struggling back to the door to get the picture before putting the pizza in the oven. my tiny oven didnt cook it very well. I thought it was done but now I just feel sick June 27\ another overbake, this time on only the spinach lovers half. its like it was cooked as a separate pizza and then added to the box after the fact. dry and crusty and dark and all the pieces were separated from each other as if theyve been handled one by one and put in the box. who wants that?
Hell yeah
Thank you for always be so kind and awesome and making the best pizza EVER!!
Awesome
A bit cold and dried up slice...must have been old..its hard to keep slices perfect..
Friendly little pizza place. Friendly staff, great pizza including gluten free. No inside tables but a large well cared for patio with picnic tables. They sell whole pizzas and single slices. Both are great! Decent parking lot but may not be wheelchair accessible, stairs into the restaurant on one side. Other side may be. Over all my favourite pizza place in Vernon.
Awesome place, good staff.
Consistently great pizza. Im always so excited to order. Current faves Zorba and chicken Bacon ranch
Pizza was great as always Keep going back Food
Excellent pizza, goid single slice prices for a very large slice of pizza. Fast friendly service.
Best Pizza in whole Okanagan
We are from Alberta,and the meat, Hawaii, pepperoni,we ordered was Dee --lish!
No.
We stayed in Vernon twice abd bought Jims pizza both times. Great pizza its not greasy ,real tasty slice! Food
Awesome pizza wings delicious delivery fast friendly esp Shawn happy guy always....foods hot great prices.
Awesome pizza and friendly staff
Ordered a Pizza, confirmed order over the phone,waited 3 hrs nothing no pizza, no call, never had a problem before, guess i wont be enjoying a pizza tonight!!
Best pizza in Vernon
Fast service! Fair prices ! Generous toppings ! Excellent pizza! Tried both the meat lovers and the tropical heat Food
Always delicious
The absolute best pizza I have ever had in my life.
Best meat lovers in town, ice cream is great too Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crust. Food : 5/5 |
Had to wait 20 extra minutes for one pizza, great flavor and atmosphere through.
Service is always great! Pizza is outstanding. Food
I dont know, I remember Jims place when it was downtown and it was good pizza. I went there the other day and wanted a couple slices, I was charged $10.50 for a couple of average slices that was sitting under the heat lamp for who knows how long. The crust was dry the cheese was crunchy it wasnt fresh. If youre going to sell your pizza that has been sitting under the heat lamp and you want to get rid of it, at least knock it down to half price. Dont treat people like garbage disposals at our expense.
Fun and friendly staff, great pizza! Ignore the naysayers, I had to experience it myself to form a opinion and Im glad I did! Thanks for the fantastic Zas! Food
Always so good,we had the large pepperoni/mushroom pizza/thin crust, sauce awesome,cheese tasty, you have to pick up pizza to listen to the wisdom of fellow @the till,you will see what he says interesting!!!
Ordered a large Hawaiian pizza with black olives on it. My wife was eating and then almost broke a tooth because they put an olive pit on it. She could have choked on it !! I called and all they can say is they dont know how that would happen . So too bad. We will give you $10 off your next order.. hahaha. Ya I dont think so and will never order from there again. Becareful on what you order. They might have a surprise in it. The old girl that has been there for over 30 years should retire. Very rude !!!!! Customer service she does not know !!!
The pizza was delicious and the staff were so accommodating. They delivered all the way to sparkling hill, even up to the room. The pizza arrived earlier than they estimated and was still hot. Outstanding service and amazing pizza.
Honestly the best pizza in bc ,hot,tasty ,nicely garnish and incredible services. Well worth the stop that you wont regret prove me wrong....if you can
Great lunch and dinner option.
What happened to the pizza. Jim s used to be the go to but I am not sure why they have now switched ingredients like the cheese and now the pizza is the same as Top Choice pizza. Very disappointed. Now I have to try a new place. Sad
Great !
Great pizza, will go again.
Delicious & filling pizza, great service, limited seating.
I give it a three star for atmosphere as I haven t spent any time in the restaurant nor on the patio, I ve always taken the pie to go. As for service and food as per usual Second to None!! Exceptional, thank you Jim s for always having a good ole pan style pizza for the family to munch on. Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchairs are welcomed with ease.
After asking twice for a gluten free crust for a person who is celiac, they gave a regular pizza. Never get gluten free pizzas from them and always double check if you do!
Consistently great pizza
Me and the wife love coming here. Even though its almost 45 minute drive, it is totally worth it. Drive from Kelowna Just to eat this delicious pizza. Recommended for everybody to come, check it out.
Great guy great pizza and great poetry
Went around 4 pm earlier in the week. Ordered a slice that was in the window and was told it was reserved for a staff member then kinda just stood there awkwardly. Heard okay things but didnt get to try sadly!
Ordered takeout the other day ceaser salad and greek salad. the greek salad sauce was literly dripping out from container .opened container there was so much greek dressing on salad it was way way to much and it was spillng out. The salad wasnt very good as it was soaked in the sauce so most went n garbage. I dont get it ceaser salad dressing on the side but not the greek??? .my son called there Shawn credited $15.00 on next order Dont think we will order from there again but thank you Shawn for at least giving a credit.
Everytime I drive thru Vernon this is a must stop!!!!!
Best pizza in Vernon! Great service
Best pizza I ve ever had! Service is so fast and really high quality food!
Me and my husband love Jim s place so much! We tried their new hot honey pizza and it was amazing!
Delicious, highly recommend this place!
I love this place! The pizza is definitely the best in vernon
The go to guy here is Shawn! He is very accommodating, very knowledgeable and very friendly. Food is always great at this store. Ask Shawn for recommendations and you wont regret them. Kudos! Keep it up!
Excellent pizza
Awesome. Love that girl Asha. Great girl. Keep up the great work. Keep smiling
Pizza middle of the road but wow on their bbq ribs and lasagna
Best pizza in town if you havent already been here then you most definitely gotta go eat here
Excellent pizza. Place your order with time, they are busy because everybody wants to get their pizza.
The best pizza in town including all the staff. Never had a problem
Excellent service, excellent pizza. They deliver to sparkling hill for a fee but well worth it
Love the food and the people who work there! Asia is cooool and so are the others. I love this place.
Super interesting menu options. The extreme Veggie was phenomenal and loved the heat in the buffalo chicken. Going again when I am in Vernon.
The pizza was delicious and the ladies working the front were super friendly however, she handed me the machine with a $2 tip already inputted. I didn t notice until after I paid and she thanked me for the tip. The money isn t the problem, it s the fact that she tipped herself on her behalf.
Decent service and quality ingredients. I have become accustomed to pizza in Ontario which is prepared very differently to BC. It was a thicker crust and the toppings were covered by thick mozzarella. Flavour was good but it was a much heavier meal than we anticipated. I don t recommend the cinnamon sticks. Dry ribs were good.
My husband and I picked up takeout the other day with our little girls. We were waiting for it and our girls were playing inside and outside--those working were so kind and patient with them. The pizza was SO good too! Well definitely be back, the atmosphere was great
Ill give them 5 stars even though there was a discrepancy between the online price and what they wanted to charge me. After a bit of frustrating back and forth, I got the pizza at the online price. I asked for a thin crust and it was crispy and tasty. I created my own vegetarian and it was really good! I like that they offer a plant based protein topping. I dont get pizza often and have been really disappointed in what Ive gotten within the last 2 years. I would definitely get this pizza again. Very tasty, not messy. I love that the toppings go right to the edge.
Had a great experience with Jims! Ordered a pizza and the cinnamon sticks and it was hot and tasted delicious!
My favourite place in Vernon! Great dips and great pizza
Great pizza and awesome ice cream
Just amazing
First impressions were good, its a small area for ordering or pickup but staff are very friendly and there are picnic tables outside to do a sit down. They sell pizza by the slice so you can try different varieties. Ample space for parking. You must try their pizza as the sauce, crust and toppings will not disappoint!
Thank you Jims Pizza our pizza and chicken wings were epic. Long day at the Comiccon such an excellent dinner
Best pizza in Vernon
Super good veggie pizza slice. Friendly staff.
Hands down the best pizza in town! Just plan for your pizza to be about 15 minutes late and you will never be disappointed! Oh and did I mention, the man at the front till has some of the most epic alliteration rolls anyone will ever hear. Food
Fantastic atmosphere and excellent customer service! The pizza is amazing!
Looking for a quick, tasty dinner, we found Jim s Place on Google! The good reviews are absolutely justified! The pizza tasted great and had plenty of toppings. In addition, every pizza is also gluten-free!!!! Jim s Space is highly recommended Dietary restrictions: Almost all dishes are also available gluten-free!
Great service, delivered warm. We got the gluten free vegetarian and it tasted amazing.
Had an issue but the owner contacted me and rectified the situation. That was awesome customer service!
Great pizza, pricey though. But it all is these days.
We were looking for something to eat in the evening and decided on Jims Place Pizza based on the reviews, as they said they also had gluten-free pizzas. We were surprised with a large, very tasty pizza with lots of toppings and also that all pizzas can be baked gluten-free. Highly recommended. Dietary restrictions: gluten free, gluten free, celiac
Delicious!!!! Its so yummy and they have by the slice. Their ice cream sundaes are also super! Vegetarian options: They had 2 vegetarian pizza options in the pizza by the slice, which is rare
Extra friendly and efficient staff. Very good pizza
Try the dill pickle pizza
The Greek one is so delish!!
What an awesome place, great pie and an unforgettable experience. Cheers guys.
Excellent pizza, big and tasty slices for a very reasonable price
Staff was full of smiles the pizza special super yummy and outdoor seating dog friendly.
Tasty tantalizing triangles to titillate your tastebuds on Tuesdays
Great pizza ! Nice pan style crust . Freash toppings. Will be back for sure ! Food
Great pizza I stop in every time I pass through vernon
Well we got the lasagna, at first I was confused about there being meat balls in it but Jims has taught me a value lesson to not question the professionals.
Great food best pizza in vernon by far
Best pizza I have ever had! My go to pizza place! With super friendly staff, and a great atmosphere along with AMAZING pizza? Why would I go elsewhere especially why not support local!?
Waited 1 hour for some thin kinda floppy pizza. Crust was good. Way to expensive, older lady working was rude when I enquired after an hour wait. Thin, and gave me heartburn. Goid ice cream NOT WORTH THE WAIT
We love Jims Place Pizza! Gourmet pizza with very generous toppings and super friendly staff!
Cheese on the top of your topings ..on a pizza is just wrong.
Gluten free was fantastic
Great pizzas
Best pizza ever! Love this place
So tastey! Nice little shop, friendly staff, great food, good sized portions nice little eating areas outside. I enjoyed Jims pizza.
Pizza as it should be made!! Get in my belly!!!!
Large selection of pizzas, sides, drinks and desserts! So many ice creams I was shocked (pleasantly). Decent prices and nice set up. Good for takeout but there is outdoor seating that would have been nice if we had more time. The flavour of the pizza sauce was exceptional, a lovely herb balance. Then all rounded out with amazing service from everyone there. Cheerful, happy to help, and some good laughs. Great time all around and a perfect place to stop by some good food.
Really good selection of pizza and each type cooked perfectly! I would highly recommend!
Great pizza on a stop on our way through. Our server had a fun alliteration and a great sense of humour when I tried. I was only an alliteration amateur, obviously .which should have been apparent.
They sell pizza by the slice and the selection is good
Filling, quality pizza! Incredible staff.
Jim s is the greatest pizza in the history of pizza . We like it so much, we re naming our children after him all of of them . Maybe even the dog
Excellent food
Best pizza!!!!!!
Ordered pizza it was under cooked I recommend to cook ur pizzas a lil longer from now on smfh
Just fantastic pizza, absolutely loaded with toppings and always made fresh.
Jims place is awesome the food always tastes great the service is amazing and well priced . Best pizza I have had after a long day at the lake they also have it by the slice with lots of options to choose from . Best locally owned shop in town give it a try if your looking for something tasty . Parking: More about the parking lol you can park a semi no problem . They are right on the main HW and there is a back alley also tones of side parking on both ends of the shop .
Updated to add: Gave Jims another try tonight (and we also tried them for pickup a couple weeks ago) and it really was awesome. Both times. Thanks, Jims! You restored my faith in the best local pizza joint in town. What a terrible disappointment. Have waited a long time to try Jims. We ordered delivery tonight, bacon cheeseburger pizza to coldstream. It was absolutely terrible. I hope the establishment sees this because I feel like they will know right away the pizza I am talking about. They knew exactly what that was when they boxed it up and sent it for delivery. Heard so many good things, it was my first time ordering from them. Definitely wont order again. This was SO overcooked and dry, it was like a gas station pizza. I dont know why anyone raves about this place. That was an embarrassment to serve to my guest. Awful pizza. Do not believe the hype. Not worth the money AT ALL. What a waste of money.
Jims place is always fantastic. Ive fallen in love with the dill pickle pizza. A little weird and very delicious. Service is always awesome, even when they have multiple people waiting. Highly recommend
Amazing pizza and Joanne s made the wait so worth it first time trying but will be back for sure
This is some of the best pizza I ve ever had. I don t think you ll be disappointed. Always a little teensy bit late but it s worth it. Guy at the front is really strange with his alliteration spiel he gives you when you pay. He will say a long sentence with a bunch of M s, T s, F s, or S s depending on the day of the week. But the pizza is so good with so many options that I tolerate the ramble. It s memorable to say the least. Definitely try it out.
Best pizza in town
not my favorite pizza the taco pizza they dont know how to listen
Amazing gluten-free pizza options. Always really good service. Dietary restrictions: Really good gluten free crust. Food : 5/5 |
I ve had frozen pizzas taste better honestly. Not worth the hype and a weird interaction when collecting couldn t tell if he was joking or what.. strange.
The food is always great and the people who work there are super friendly
Best pizza in town hands down
First of all, so damn good. Have been trying to find a place that is similar to Verns pizza and this is the place. Good pizza Good people Good $ Well done!
Conveniently placed on highway in vernon so you can pop in for a delicious slice...best in vernon Friendly staff always nice and free slice on your birthday Vegetarian options: They have it
Best pizza in the Okanagan!
At this moment I have no idea what the pizza will taste like. I ordered 1 hour 20 minutes before pick up time and now waiting an additional 20 minutes. I can help you from being overwhelmed and stop ordering from this place all together. As the last thing I want to do after working 10 hrs is to sit in their parking lot.
Increadible sauce with great toppings and a mediocre crust
Pizza is better when you order a whole pie. Last couple times the ready made slices were you old. The Greek salad is amazing and Ceasars salad is the best in town.
Insanely busy pizza place and for good reason. Pizzas are delicious!!! Only outdoor seating available as the place is tiny. They sell pizza buy the slice and cold pizza as well!!! Super cool idea to save wasting day old by the slice.
Always awesome
Best pizza in vernon, possibly the okanagan.
Great pizza!
