Speedy Pizza

I used to LOVE Speedys Pizza… that is until I placed a TO-​GO order. I ordered a Stromboli to go and had my husband pick it up. On arriving home I divided the stromboli into 3 sections and served one section to my three year old daughter. While she was eating I sliced myself a section and ate a bite or 2 at the counter while fixing drinks. I then went to the table and joined my daughter who was chowing down. I tore open the stromboli to add my marinara sauce and to my horror. there was a HUGE COCKROACH cooked into the cheese! I screamed which brought my husband running to the kitchen. He immediately took the remainder of the stromboli away from my daughter (who of course began to cry). He shoved it all back into the box and took it back to Speedys where he was told, «I’m sorry but sometimes this happens.» My husband then had to request his money back rather than the manager offering to give it back. Needless to say I have not been back and I did report them to the local health department. Be careful if you run across anything crunchy while eating here!!!

Has a calzone and cheese fries. Not good at all. Fries were soggy and the cheese was ½ melted and greasy. Calzone was «ok» but very plain. Seriously over priced for the portion size. I really had high hopes for them seeing as they are the only mom and pop pizza shop in sylva.

Great food… we had the ranchero pizza medium size… the crust was perfect and they don’t cheat you on chicken like a pizza chain would. We got a pitcher of beer and it was BIG. In Florida you get a baby pitcher with a thing that «helps keep it cold» this easily holds twice as much. The wait staff where very nice. It took us 10 minutes to be addressed but they where very busy! Bill was under $ 30!

This pizza place has been in the business for many years! Their Greek pizza was amazing! Also I would recommend getting the salads beforehand! The Pizzas come out fresh and hot! Definitely recommend this place for pizza in Sylva!

This place Is FABULOUS! My husband has been coming here for 40 years! BEST pizza, great service & food! It’s casual … NC casual not fancy. Just right!!!

Most recently my daughter and I went for lunch. They have one of the best pizzas ever. The crust is the best part, with many different choices of toppings and specialty pies. And they have an awesome 6 dollar lunch special.

We were looking for a local place to have lunch and were directed here. Great pizza — I had the go green but switched the banana peppers for goat cheese — tasted great. Others in our party had more traditional pizzas & they were great too.

My husband and i frequent this establishment for lunch. Food is very good, service is good most days. My only complaint would be the new payment system. They come to your table and use machine for credit payments watching over you doing tip. I just don’t care for that. So we now pay in cash only. That would be my only complaint

Went for dinner tonight while vacationing in Sylva. It was absolutely wonderful! We had a pizza with pepperoni, ground beef, artchoke hearts and goat cheese. Yum! I am picky about pizza sauce and their’s is some of, if not the, best I have had. The crust was super light and crspy, too. It was made perfect by the Heizelmännchen Orange Blossom IPA — most likely the best beer I have ever had.

Always always amazing! The pizza is perfect with a nice crisp crust. The only complaint I have ever had is it is small and can mean waiting for a table on busy nights. Honestly they could have 50 tables and still be packed. The eggplant sub is another favorite of mine. BBQ chicken pizza is heaven. This is where a lot of locals go to eat frequently for a reason.

The pizza was really really good however it took a very very long time. They also seemed to be short staffed, two servers for the whole place at lunch was not enough. Our server was nice when she had a chance to see us.

This place was AWESOME! Food was great, also they are pet friendly. We had our two pitbulls with us and the staff let us have them on the outdoor patio and was super accommodating! Service was great and fast, definitely a pace to check out when in town…

Love this place, very laid back and casual. Great place to unwind after work or to take your family. I enjoy having a drink and eating their green pizza. Owner is very friendly and runs his place well.

As a 3^rd year WCU student, this is one of my favorite places around! The pizza is always good, the service is friendly and consistent, and the prices are very reasonable. I recommend the Greek pizza or a calzone (they are massive!!).

Came upon this great little Main Street pizzaria-​pub restaurant back in 2003 when visiting Western Carolina University. Now, we make sure to stop here for pizza anytime we are driving through the Great Smoky Mountains of western NC! Pizza is delicious, love to pair it with an ice cold Bud Light after a long road trip from NY/​NJ to the mountains of NC. Coming from NY/​NJ, I am always seeking out awesome pizza where ever I’m traveling, and this place totally does it! Highly recommend! Enjoy!

Excellent service, cold beer and great food! What more could you ask for? Don’t !! Just go to Speedy’s pizza!

I am a college student at Western Carolina University, and if you’ve lived here you know there isn’t much better to eat around here than fast food. Speedys makes awesome pizza and it’s a breath of fresh air next to dominos or Pizza Hut. It’s $ 9 for a pitcher of yuengling if that gives you an idea of their price range. I highly recommend the large calzone (it’s the size of your upper body) – and even at $ 12 + 1.25 per topping, a $ 17 calzone is still a great deal trust me… it’s enough for three.

We stopped here for a quick pizza on our way back from Nantahala National Forest. We just needed something tiny and quick to hold us until our engagement dinner that night in Asheville. Fired up Unilocal,found this cute little place, and routed our GPS there. We got a small Deluxe pizza — onions, peppers, mushrooms and pepperoni. It took a reasonable amount of time for the pizza to be ready. The pizza was delicious and the crust was very soft. Since we were not dining in, I can’t comment on the service, but the service here definitely lacked a smile. We were not even asked if we wanted drinks while we waited, nor did they give us napkins with our pizza. But considering it’s a take-​out order, I wouldn’t hold it against them. The bathrooms were clean. Prices were great too.
I can guarantee so much that next time if we are in this area, we will definitely eat at Speedy’s again.

The bomb! I want this pizza everyday. What kind??? Any kind with a cold glass of the brew ha ha will do.
Get the Hawaiian pizza or whatever is on the menu as a special.
Sit outside with a baby and look at the paper mill across the street. Or don’t because you are devouring a fatty slice of the best pizza this side of the smokies.

We stop here after every Nantahala rafting trip, and it’s delicious! The cheese bread and pizza are our favorites. They have a good selection of beer for being a smaller place — Bell’s Two Hearted, Oberon, Nantahala Brewing, Sierra Nevada, etc. — and the service is excellent. There are a few tables at the bar and a handful in the dining room. They also have outdoor picnic table seating that’s covered.
