About the Vibe
Ace Pizza brings a playful, no-nonsense vibe to Victoria Park Village, breaking up the area's typical smugness with its casual, colorful energy. Their stonebaked 'London-style' pizza hits that sweet spot between New York crispness and Neapolitan chew, while the fried artichokes are surprisingly addictive. It's the kind of spot where you'll find sunburned couples bickering in line, gangs of friends tearing into pies, and even a few hounds curled up on the floor.

Playful pizza with serious flavor
Ace Pizza is the kind of place that makes you feel like you've stumbled onto something locals actually love rather than a tourist trap. The pizza is genuinely excellent—crispy bottom, bubbly crust, and that perfect London-style middle ground between New York and Naples. The fried artichokes are a standout too, soft inside with a satisfyingly tough exterior that keeps you coming back for more.
The atmosphere is refreshingly unpretentious. It's colorful, loud in the best way, and feels like a proper neighborhood spot where you'll see the same friendly faces week after week. The primrose and terracotta storefront pops on Lauriston Road, and inside, you'll find gangs of pals sharing pizzas and pints while dogs lounge underfoot.
It's not perfect—the service can be hit or miss during busy weekend rushes, and you'll definitely want to book ahead if you're going on a Saturday night. But for what they're doing, Ace Pizza nails it. It's become a staple in Victoria Park Village for good reason.
