If you're in the scenic town of Pictou, Nova Scotia, Acropole Pizza should be on your must-visit list. Located conveniently on Church Street, this pizza restaurant has garnered a dedicated following, partly due to its fresh ingredients and flavorful offerings. Customer reviews reflect a mix of high praise and some recent criticism. Many, like Brandon Mackenzie, have fond memories spanning years, craving the delicious pizza and donair that Acropole is known for. Leigh Sheppard's experience stands out, highlighting exceptional service with a touch of kindness when her delivery included extra donair sauce, and her rave about the 'woks pizza' showcases their commitment to quality.
However, not all feedback has been glowing. Some patrons, like Peggy M, have pointed to inconsistencies in the quality, mentioning recent pizzas that were overly greasy. Still, the enthusiasm from other customers, such as BJ Robinson, who discovered the joy of a donair for the first time, reflects the restaurant's potential for delight. With its popularity and dedicated customer base, Acropole Pizza embodies the essence of comfort food, making it a significant pit stop for those exploring the region's culinary scene.

Had this back in August 2022. Was a short walk from the Boardwalk. Reasonably priced and loved the pizza so much! We are from north ontario and it’s been 9 years since I had this last time and I have been craving it since. Donair was great also. We will definitely be back next time we make the 22 hour drive!

We were only in the area for one night staying at a spot some distance from the restaurant. These guys delivered it to us and threw in some extra donair sauce! I tried to tip but the driver wouldn’t take it saying not to worry. The pizza was phenomenal. These guys cut no corners using fresh ingredients. We ate a woks pizza. It was incredible!

Used to be the best pizza. The last 2 pizzas I had from here were horrible. All I tasted was grease and salt. I order pepperoni and bacon from other pizza places and it is great. But all the pizza here is too greasy now. Bigger place, horrible food? Hope they fix this, I have always been a fan of acropole. May have to change this.

I’ve lived in Nova Scotia ten years now and had never tried a donair. I do not have an adventurous palate. A friend arrived from the US and my hubs spent the day driving us around Pictou County trying different Maritime foods and sampling several beaches. I’m 62 and have never ever tasted anything as delicious as the Acropole Donair. I’ve been drooling for another for over a week now.....

We took out the meat pizza, it was great! We ordered on-site, and waited about 15 minutes. This is a popular place for good reason.

A good friend of mine, and a local Pictou boy to be noted said you will never have a pizza as good as a Pictou county pizza. Well he is so correct. What a flavour and that brown sauce!!! I’ll be back!

They delivered, hot and fresh within 40 minutes. Even though it was out of their way. Pizza was delicious, donair's were amazing!!! Highly recommended

Always a must stop when visiting Pictou. I love getting a slice and parking by the water and enjoying the sunset with my piece of pizza. My only wish would be that they were open a bit longer for a late night snack!
