Ordered the House Works and the Halifax BBQ chicken. Absolutely delicious pizza for a great price and the wait time was on par with other pizza places which is impressive because this pizza is way better.

Oh my! What a wonderful surprise! I popped in to pick up a pizza "or something" on the way home. I've driven by Uncle Buck's many times, but I do not live in the area. I was completely taken back when I walked in the door, in a good way! There was so much going on. A huge sub counter. A pizza section and a funky ice cream section like I've never seen before! So many different kinds of milkshakes and similar ice cream things. Can't wait to try fizzy milkshakes! The restaurant is "subtly" split in two, with the famous Tanner Deli and the ice cream products on one side, and the well Respected Uncle Buck's Pizza products on the other. Lots of comfy seating! So much on the menu to choose from. I ordered a pizza. Donair pizza with pineapple and extra sauce. The pizza was really good, it did not come with donair sauce on the bottom of the pizza, but you could ask for it drizzled on top if you like. Two containers of donair sauce came standard and I ordered an extra one. (Please don't "judge" on the pineapple :-) The pizza was ready quickly. There were many customers in the store, coming and going. Lots of staff members serving. Even though the staff were busy, at least three staff members asked me if they could help in any way. The staff were honest and genuine and seemed to be very concerned about helping me pick up something that I would really like. The staff were a mixture of ages and in some way resembles a large family as they were so positive in their interactions with each other. This may be true of many pizza places for sure, but this restaurant seems to have something special and different going on. Having worked in the pizza business as a younger person, I could see the wise choices that the owners made in organization, product choices and quality! Tanner's subs for our next meal, and fizzy shakes all summer, for sure!

Tonight was busy (Friday of a holiday weekend)! But the staff were so great to me while I waited in my car, that they accidentally over charged for roasted red peppers (sadly they don’t have that there) and came out to ask if that’s okay. As a result, they gave us some cookies and they were really good, too! Thanks Uncle Bucks!
