Peter Piper Pizza

You had to have grown up eating this pizza, like me and all of my family, to love Peter Piper more than anyone else. Our family will drive an hour to eat some Peter Piper. Glad they have one only 20 minutes from us now. We have many birthday celebrations here, the kids love it. They have one practically on every corner in El Paso Tx, it’s a tradition there!

Went here for my nephews BD party. Not impressed.
PROS: The service was pretty good, the people working there were generally nice. Also, compared to Chuck e cheese, the overall volume of the arcade/​constant announcements was much quieter. The arcade/​play area was cut off from the dining area with a glass partition, which cut down the overall volume tremendously. It wasn’t crowded at all. We went on a Saturday at noon, and the restaurant seating was only 20% capacity. Maybe an indication that they won’t be in business much longer.
CONS: Not that my expectations were high, but the pizza was pretty lousy. Cicis quality, but Giordanos prices. We spent $ 31 on a small pizza and a salad. Also, I’m not a greenie-​two-​shoes, but their business model seems really irresponsible to distribute cheap paper plates, paper cups, plastic salad container, and plastic utensils without a reusable alternative. It’s extremely wasteful. Also, as stated in previous reviews, the arcade tokens verge on price gouging. And the game options are limited.
If you’re going to have a kid’s BD party, there plenty of better options.

The millennial’s version of Chuck E. Cheese, except you don’t have cheesy games & prizes, loud music, and that stupid, fugly mouse. Instead, Peter Piper Pizza has even better games for the kiddos to play with (interactive sporting games, + video games) that even the parents can get involved in. And get this– the food is actually pretty good here! No running to the nearest CVS for a bottle of Pepto Bismal afterwards. Nope, not in here!
And if you just want to stop in for pizza, prices are fairly reasonable for a pretty good product. During the weekdays, there is a buffet available (Monday-​Friday, until 2:00 PM). If you want to split a pie like I did (New York three cheese pepperoni deep dish with 8 slices) along with one salad and a fountain drink, you’ll still be paying less than $ 20 (mine came to $ 18 & change).
If you have trouble finding Peter Piper Pizza, look for the triple-​decker golf range (Top Golf) off of SH-​121. Peter Piper is directly in front of it. And if you still have trouble locating it with or without a GPS, then you need to get a new eyeglasses prescription.

Nostalgia.
I’m giving 4 stars for nostalgia. Peter Piper restaurants are all over the Arizona valley and I grew up eating their cheap pizza as a kid. It reminds me of home now. It’s a bit of a drive from where we live in NE Fort Worth, but we package the visit with a trip to IKEA or that brand new Nebraska Furniture Mart mega-​store (holy ^$@& that place is insane) — both of which are really close. There’s also a Top Golf in the same plaza as the PPP.
I prefer the original crust and usually go with the «werx» minus mushrooms. Wife likes their sausage pizza and daughter will eat anything– she just wants tokens to play some games! The food is cheap, the place is clean, and there are other destinations nearby to make a day of it. If you are a pizza snob, then keep looking. This is not the best pizza– crust is the frozen kind that is thawed and baked. But, to me, it brings back so many memories.

For a pizza restaurant with a game room we had an exceptionally good time. The pizza is so much better than other similar restaurants i.e. chuck e cheese. The game room and restaurant in general were clean and all games seemed to be in working order. We will definitely be returning!

Second visit was pretty much pathetic. They had no clean plates so we had to eat off of paper plates. I ordered a special, and the crust was WAY overdone and super hard. So I just ate the toppings. Based on THIS visit, I would never come back.

This is a great family place. The food is awesome and the prices are even better. This place beat any of the other chains hands down.

A place that doesn’t want to promote violence, yet has violent video games such as «Time Crisis 4» and «Aliens Armageddon» should allow sporting events such as WWE wrestling to be showed on their TVs when their customers request it instead of being rude, and giving attitude to a wrestling fan. Wrestling is a world renown sport which should be held to the same standards as a UFC match, or Basketball game. Oh, and their pizza was very undercooked, and lacked any true flavor. CiCi’s would be a better option.

We came here for a birthday party. This was our first experience with this type of place. I’ve always heard things of similar places and never wanted to take my toddler before. My daughter is 2.5 and had a blast here. There wasn’t much for her to do at her age. The climbing steps up to the slide in the small climb area were just a little too far apart for her to do it by herself, so I had to help her up that each time. There were a couple cars to ride or the mini carousel, which she enjoyed. There wasn’t much else for a 2.5 year old. That didn’t stop her from having fun and running around like a crazy girl though!
Most if her little rides were 2 tokens. At $ 5 for 20 tokens, I didn’t feel ripped off spending $ 5 on her rides. I don’t know about the other game prices. I almost did the photo booth, but that did seem pricey.
I saw employees cleaning the rides/​games. I’m sure they were not sterile, but I didn’t notice any sliminess to the games, so that was nice. I REALLY REALLY wanted antibacterial stations throughout the place, but didn’t see one. It could be wipes or just the liquid. That is my hope and suggestion! As we were leaving, I looked everywhere wanting that to disinfect my toddler and was disappointed to not see that. The back area smelled a bit, but it was more of a game exhaust smell. It was kinda weird, so we just avoided that area. They were big kid games anyway.
The pizza was alright. Nothing gourmet, but I wasn’t expecting crazy awesome pizza. Better than I expected actually!
On the birthday party front, I don’t think I would do a party here for my little girl. We were so busy controlling our kids, helping them do stuff, holding the coins, etc that the parents couldn’t hold done a conversation. It was just loud mass chaos. That is nothing against this place. It’s just the atmosphere of a kid play joint. It was chaos and we couldn’t even hear when presents were being opened or cake was being cut, etc.
Lastly, one the security front. I wish there was some security like at Kid Mania. Wrist bands, hand stamp number, or something checked at the door out. With the chaos, kids running everywhere, and how loud it is. Even my well behaved mamma’s girl ran around like a hooligan and got past me without me keeping exact track of where she was. I remember thinking that it would be easy for someone to grab my girl when I lost track of her and walk out the door with her, especially if she knew the person. Not that I was concerned or a worrying type of parent. Just an observation. I would have liked to see a checkin/​checkout person giving and checking kid/​parent numbers to ensure kids leave with the right person.
I am not thinking I’m excited to go back and I won’t have a party here. I enjoy a quieter home party where parents can chat. But, I’m sure we will be back for other parties. When my daughter is older there will be more to play with.

First off, new business although most of the bugs are worked out. Facility is always clean. Some think it is like other establishments and offer an all day buffet, it does not. Game room is great for smaller kids, some say Gatti Town is better (but Gatti Town is closed). So if you have small kids, or wanna play some skeet ball yourself it is good for that. Food is always hot, plenty of TV’s party room area and some spots off to the side for a little more «quiet.» Did I mention they sell beer for those who like beer with their pizza? Food is good, cheesy bread a favorite with my daughter. Would an «all day» buffet make a difference, this business is geared to have a place where you can hold a party for your child away from home, with your own party host/​hostess. So for what it is I am a fan!!! And about once a week or every ten days, I hit the buffet for lunch. Give it a try.

In the area, last minute decision to take the kids to eat. Pretty pricey but food is better than other similar place. I would take my kids here again

Had a great time at this location. Food was great! Loved their 5 meat supreme pizza. The only bad thing in my opinion was the gameroom. A little too small especially after visiting their location in Dallas. There are no bumper cars at this location in The Colony which that was disappointing. My kids were so excited to go for the bumper cars since we had gone to a bday party at the other location and this one doesn’t have it. Other than that everything was great! The restaurant was super clean and food was great! My husband and I get to relax while the kids can go play in a air condition place!

Some of the negative views may have been based on early experiences when staff were still training. Don’t expect other people to babysit your kids, a quiet setting, a huge arcade or gourmet food and you’ll Do just fine.
We didn’t have any issues with the sauce (with two picky eaters — one who isn’t a big fan of pizza). In fact, it was better than expected. I can’t touch the food at ChuckECheese. Besides the atmosphere not fit for eating, that stuff tastes like cheap frozen cardboard. PPP was a little greasy for my preference but after a little blotting, it tasted good. The mandarin salad was a nice option; the lettuce was crisp and the serving was sufficient.
The gaming area isn’t huge but it was perfect for a 7 and 8.5 year old. I didn’t see any kids complaining (except when it was time to leave). If you want an adult size arcade, go to Dave and Busters. I saw staff constantly cleaning the area and all of the games worked perfectly.
The prices are comparable to average arcade unless you’re living in 1983.
Customer service was polite and consistent, nothing to brag about but no one was rude.
My biggest concern in places like this is cleanliness. At similar establishments I don’t even sit down because of greasy paw marks everywhere. PPP was clean and didn’t smell. I didn’t feel like I needed to shower in Lysol after leaving.
Remember, this is a kids/​family place. Our experience was pleasant enough that we’ll be going back. The kids enjoyed themselves and the adults weren’t grossed out so it was a win.

I grew up going to a Peter Piper Pizza in my hometown and guess I expected too much going here. The only thing that we enjoyed here was that it was new and not crowded.
Something that the other reviewers didn’t stress is how small the play area is. The eating area is huge, but the play area is a little bigger than one you would find at a Cici’s Pizza. I echo the other reviewers in that the pizza is nothing special, games are expensive (the games don’t last long), tickets are scarce, and prizes are horrible. Sad but I don’t even see this place competing with Gatti Town, Chuck E Cheese, etc.
In this area I would prefer Dave & Busters or Gatti Town…

This place is clean and new, and my experience wasn’t awful, but it wasn’t great either. I stopped by to get some pizza for myself. I ordered the California Veggie pizza, but they made a Chicago by accident. I asked them to please remake it, and they did; I also requested a free salad since I had to wait so long. They gave me the free salad. The pizza was okay, and the salad was a salad. I don’t plan on returning.

Went to Peter Pipers with my 4 month old baby. When I asked for a hot bowl of water to warm up my son’s bottle, they gave me a small cup with luke warm water. When I asked if I could get a bigger cup and hotter water, all they could get was like warm water. Finally, after my baby was crying his face off we got a manager to help. I don’t recommend anyone with a baby to visit Peter Pipers. This place doesn’t understand what happens went baby’s drink cold milk.

Went to the new PPP (next to Top Golf) on Thursday at 5:00 for the first time.
Lots of room to spread out and they have a bunch of TV’s to keep the attention of the adults.
Pizza was Ok. Don’t go in expecting too much, this is a pizza place for kids.
Ordered a Supreme for the Adults and a pepperoni for the kids. Toppings were plentiful and seemed fresh. The pizza’s had a good crust (we had thin and hand tossed) but the sauce was definitely a little funky. Someone else mentioned in a review that they thought the sauce tasted like spaghetti-O’s and we thought the exact same thing.
Since it is brand new, it didn’t have that «Dirty Socks» smell that some of the PPP and Chuck E Cheese joints around town have so that was a plus.
The biggest issue that this place has is that no one seemed at all happy to be here. Not hateful or anything, just indifferent to us.
Took the kid at the register forever to get our order correct and never told us we could have ordered a «family pack» and received a bunch of tokens for the same price. I think he was in training, but the employees that were helping him never even made eye contact with us.
Bottom line– If I’m going to drop a hundy on frozen Pizza and tokens, at least try to act friendly or smile at the kids. Games are expensive, tickets are scarce, and the prizes are straight out of the dollar store.
Don’t expect Tony to say «Come on over to Peter Piper Pizza» no one said a word to us.

Very chuck e cheese like without the characters. I would rate well below Gattitown. Not a buffet except at lunch. Game area is pretty small. My 5-​yr old’s coins were stolen after he set them down for 2 minutes and management didn’t address even after we told them. Would’ve been very easy to give us the 10 tokens he lost versus losing a customer. Tickets don’t go very far compared to others. Probably won’t be back although it is very close to my house.

I REALLY wanted to like this place because it’s close to my neighborhood, but I have to say– it was a major fail! The pizza was not very good– sauce was very thin and therefore toppings all slid off immediately! The games cost multiple coins, so you burn through them quickly. At the prize counter, the selection is small, and the prizes are horrible– you don’t get very much unless you somehow have thousands of tickets! They cleared off our table as soon as we walked over to play games, which was odd. Also– there are no safety measures in place like those at Chuck E. Cheese– such as stamping hands, etc. Overall– I would definitely recommend Chuck E Cheese or Gatti Town over this place. Better food, better value, better management, etc.

My family and I went and checked out Peter PIper Pizza this evening… Overall, I’d vote that it was «okay.» Honestly, the pizza seemed a little overpriced for what you got. The most disappointing thing was the sauce on the pizza. It totally tasted like sauce that came from a spaghetti o’s can. My 14 month old loved it!
This place is definitely a kid/​family friendly atmosphere which I really appreciated! They have a neat little arcade section and a fun looking play place for young kids. I really wish I could say that I loved this place, but I just can’t get passed the sauce…
