Good pizza, but NOT Neopolitan. Talk about SELLING OUT :(
I've had some great pies at Pizza Bob's, but am very disappointed after seeing the new sign front claiming this is Neopolitan pizza.
ARGH, WTF?!??!?! This is most certainty NOT Neopolitan pizza! Furthermore, why would the owners want to SELL OUT and jump on this silly trendy Neopolitan bandwagon, when they have a relatively unique pie that can stand on it's own without having to put some trendy BS label on it? (and I say *relatively* unique, because this pizza is esentially a Tom's House of Pizza clone).
Owners, WTF are you thinking? your reputation has been severely downgraded IMO. BOOO! -

OK most of the reviews sofar are generally correct.
The pizza here is actually pretty good, overloaded with toppings, and thincrust style. GO up to the counter and serve yourself, neighborhood pub feeling, etc. All this is accurate.
The thing everybody forgot to mention, is that this place is WAY OVER PRICED!! Like I mean to the point of being obscene! If I go there for a jug of your AGD and want a bite in my head Im thinking I gotta leave to go eat somewhere when Im IN a place that serves food!! Hahah!
Pizza Bob, please do something to lower your costs on stuff so you can lower your food prices man (pizza especially!!). If you ever want to get the odd NEW customer who also comes back and stop the ship from sinking, you gotta do it ok? Also, PLEASE cancel the Karaoke good grief it sucked in 1994 so by now its a dead dead dead horse as a form of entertainment, seriously. And if you hire a band, please overlook the Bill Dowey over rated generic stuff.
And bring your own wine with no corkage fee? Huh? IS this your hangout joint or a business!! LMAO!! -

Just finished the "porkey pig pie" that was one of the finest pizza's I have ever had! Recent upgrades to signage and the big flat screen LCD are nice. Great lunch spot!

I went for take out pizza, mainly because on the sign they advertised some organic ingredients. It's a very thin crust, with quality ingredients and I found the pizza very flavorful and delish.
Might not be enough for those with hearty appetites-they only have two sizes, the largest pizza being 12 inch. If I was a drinker bringing your own wine would be a bonus. -

I call this 'grown-up' pizza. Nice thin crust, nice goat mozz (and just the right amount!! - i hate those places overload your pizza with greasy cheese), good, fresh toppings and good selection. If you're doing take-out though, be aware the 'large' salads are not that large. We had to add to ours with things we had in the crisper at home. Still, we fed 6 hungry people on 3 large pies and 2 salads. And we were all pretty satisfied. I like this over chain pizza places anyday!

Rob & I recently came here because we heard Pizza Bob's accepts Calgary Dollars, which is good because we collect those. So when we first walked in (my first time) I was expecting a high-end Pizzeria, but was startled to see it's more like a 'friendly neighbourhood pub'. To order, one must first look at their menu, then walk up to the counter and order that way, then sit down and wait. Oh, and if I remember, they gave us our drink glasses and there's a soda machine in the lobby for us to do it ourselves. Ask first if you want to refill it though.
We each got our own small pizza. I forgot what he had, but I enjoyed a delicious thin-crust garlic & chicken pizza.
I also noticed there was an air of community in there, like everyone knew each other :)Listed in: Alternative

There are two really important things to note about this place:
-There is Karaoke
-You can bring your own wine for no corkage fee
Put two and two together with the right crowd, and there's really no way you can go wrong.
I think the pizza is great, and the staff are always friendly. In the past they've catered to special diets in my group including doing vegan pizza. They have a wonderful, so-bad-it's-good website, featuring a horror-scene-pizza photo, a "non-alcoholic beverages" link that lists only alcohol, a very shaky home video, and text like "luscious Pineapple" and "pizza pizza pizza pizza pizza" that I can only imagine being written after a really good night.
I wouldn't recommend taking your Mom or a date here (and if you must, don't suggest she order the "Porkie Pie"), but with a good group and an unpretentious attitude, this place is a blast. -

The first time I passed this place, I thought to myself, "Man, I'll never eat in that craphole." Boy, oh boy was I ever mistaken. My bassist lived just up the street from Bob's and would come here often.
Not long ago, he convinced me to give the place a go. I was blown away. I've never seen a pizzeria that offers so much. Pizza and other items are on the menu, but they're also fully licensed and Bob's offers a nice quiet atmosphere to grab a cheap pint of draught beer.
What's really weird, is that the place is a music venue as well. While Angus and I ate our pizza and sipped pints, these old dudes plugged a few instruments into some small amps on the west wall of the joint and started ripping some impromptu blues.
Truthfully, I found myself at home here. The staff are considerate and kind and got it right every time I went in after. I've never had a problem with this fine establishment and I don't think I ever will. -

No. Don't do it.
Overloaded toppings that come off when you pick up a slice and an overly baked, dry thin crust with NO chew that resembles a water cracker in looks and taste. Pizza Bob's has made me worry for Calgarians...is there no good pizza in town? -

I had heard really good things about the pie at Pizza Bob's, however I was underwhelmed. While having a creative selection of special pies, I found our pizza to be rather bland. We ordered the The Chicken Garlic supreme, the pizza was topped with chicken, pepper, and roasted garlic. However the sauce had little flavor and the garlic didn't add any flavor. I don't think I will be back.
