“ Ever wondered if there’s an Avril Lavigne Museum in Canada? Well, La Pizzeria is that place!!! Marina and Bill are the super kind and awesome owners of this nice cozy pizza place that is home to Avril Lavigne’s favourite pizza: Pepperoni, Mushroom and Olives! They have numerous pictures and posters of Avril Lavigne, many of them signed by her! There’s even a chair signed by Avril claiming that it’s her chair I was on my way to Toronto that I passed through Napanee, Avril’s hometown, to grab a bite and that’s how I discovered this place. Marina is tremendously kind; she told me some stories about Avril that’s not known to the general public. So I’m one of the privileged ones now Their pizza is quite decent and their price is very good. Make sure you pop in here if you’re travelling on 401 ”

“ pizza was really good but they seem to be moving away from the whole avril thing, maybe because new owners? anyways the pizza was very good and i would visit again if i was ever in the area. the place is very humid though so beware ”
“ We came by to grab a pizza and ordered a medium with four toppings. Others in the restaurant were eating a Greek salad and the garlic bread with cheese. It looked so good. While we waited for our pizza to be made, someone else came in and ordered three sub sandwiches. All of the toppings looked so fresh. When our pizza arrived, it was piping hot and delicious! There was a lot of cheese and the pizza was cooked perfectly. The service was attentive and friendly. The decor could definitely use some freshening up, but everything was very clean. Ample parking out front and nearby. ”
“ Such a kind new gentleman, new owner is very kind. Food was great! ”
“ The food was delicious. I love the customer service! The main guy was very nice and polite, always was open to small talk. I appreciate the service thank you so much! ”
“ So tasty and felt fairly light on the belly!! Ordered the house special and it was fantastic! The crust was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the cheese was very generously added and the sauce? Not too sweet, lots of flavour and not overpowering. The folks working tonight seemed sweet and I love that they use the traditional dough-ball method instead of those little plastic tables! My first time ordering with them definitely won't be my last!! ”
