I've had Cranky Pat's a few times now... Always only partaking in the buffet.
If you order off the menu, it can be VERY pricey... the all you can eat buffet is a pretty good deal though, for right around $10 for the buffet and a soft drink.
The pizza is usually very good. I'm not a hug fan of the sauce though. and I have a love / hate relationship w/ the thin crust. I love the taste of the wood fired thin crust, but it's never very filling.
the pizza usually is quite greasy, so depending on how you enjoy your pizza, that could make or break it for you. I for one, love a great greasy pizza. :)
Overall though, I'm a big fan of Cranky Pat's. And will continue to go there, as I only work a short distance away...
Yelpers Beware!
If I could give this place 0 stars, I absolutely would. I completely regret my decision to trust Cranky Pat's Yelp reviews, this was hands-down the WORST pizza I've ever had in my life, and the biggest waste of $25 ever.
My first indications to leave should have been when we walked in and the entire place was empty and there were at least five flies buzzing around everywhere. My boyfriend and I came in and ordered one of the specialty pizzas, a vegetarian option with spinach and feta cheese along with some other vegetables. We asked the waitress to substitute mushrooms for the olives, because of personal preference. Â Although we were the only ones in the restaurant, the pizza took nearly 30 minutes to arrive at our table.
Once it did, I unbelievably disappointed.
- I don't know whether to attribute it to the sauce or the pizza dough (or both), but the pizza was incredibly salty.
- The pizza was literally a soggy mess. We couldn't even pick up the slices because the bottom was just plain wet.
- The mushroom substitution was ridiculous - the cook in the back smothered the thing in mushrooms, and we could barely find a single bit of spinach, feta, or anything else.
To top it all off, the waitress charged us for each individual ingredient on the pizza because we asked for mushrooms in place of olives. There was no indication of this substitution policy on the menu, and she didn't bother mentioning this when we asked for the substitution.
I e-mailed my situation to the owner, Jason, and he made it clear that Cranky Pat's has no respect for their customers. This place does not deserve your business and will only leave you with regret - don't waste your time or your money.
