Mackay Pizza — Restaurant in Brampton

Hello fellow foodies today I bring you another fabulous review for you pizza loving fans out there!! Mackay Pizza & Subs have been voted by a few food journalist and critics as one of the top 3 pizza joints in Brampton.  They are located in the north part of central Brampton on Bovaird and Hwy 10 in the same commercial plaza directly across from Rona. They are famous or at least well known in Brampton for their big slices and huge they are!! , great tasting pizza, and of course their Jamaican filled patties a unique twist to this Jamaican food.  They seem to have some great reviews for the most part so I decided to stop in and grab a few slices, pepperoni, Hawaiian and their so called famous filled pattie. Pepperoni slice 5/5 First to say that it was a  large slice does not do it justice its huge compared to your average slice you get anywhere else , as you see from  my pictures I even put a  tape measure next  to it so you  all pizza fans can actually gauge the real size  . The pizza bread is soft, well cooked, in-between a thin crust and normal crust in thickness and just loaded with fresh tasting topping. I  mean they didn’t miss an  inch that didn’t  have quality pepperoni on  it , The sauce was perfect non-acidic tasted like a homemade sauce  just amazing. The pizza was slightly greasy but that’s how I like my pizzas well-cooked but on the greasy side not dry. Overall just great! Great pizza!  My new go to place or pizza from this day on! Hawaiian slice 5/5 Again same as above just loaded with pineapple on every inch and pepperoni, really nice tasting fresh pineapple everything about it was bang on! I mean it just doesn’t get any better than this for a Hawaiian pizza! Fabulous pizza, a must try if you’re in Brampton. Jamaican stuffed pattie 2/5  I was looking forward most  to trying this one yet it was biggest disappointment. I don’t understand how this pattie has gotten some great reviews, It is not horrible by any means its edible, but would I ever order order it again? Hell no! No way ever! Period!, The issue is it really lacks refinement and there is just way to much going on as far as flavors and toppings all at once that don’t combine well. Imagine a  hot pattie stuffed with cold veggies it’s just a weird combo and the mayo just does not work what so ever ,  sometimes simple is better and Jamaican patties are fabulous as is, plain as they come.  The lettuce and tomatoes and mayo over powers the meat inside pattie to the point were you cannot taste meet at all. It’s like you’re eating a veggie pattie you can’t taste anything else. And the cold American cheese that it’s not even warmed or melted is just horrible, just a bad idea, the fillings they add just doesn’t work together. It tasted more like a veggie pita definitely not a Jamaican pattie by any means .Maybe kids like this thing, but I found it a total disaster, not for me. However guys and gals their pizza is top  notch and worth giving it a try ,you won’t regret it and if your adventures try  their pattie you  might have a better opinion of it then I did. Service 5/5 friendly fast no complaints food was ready in less than 5 minutes.  And the prices are just so reasonable and actually cheap two slices and a pattie all for $10 and change plus tax you can’t...

Tried out this place base on the review it received on the iinbrampton website. Went there in the middle of the week, around 7pm. There was a steady stream of traffic - mostly people getting takeout. I ordered a slice of pepperoni pizza, a can of pop, and a jamaican patty with lettuce, cheese and mayo. Cost was only $8 or so, which I felt was a very good price for the amount of food! The pizza was good (considering it was just a slice, so who knows how fresh it was), the crust was thin and crispy on the edge, which is how I like it. The pepperoni were a little bit bland, but not at all greasy, which was a plus. The jamaican patty, though, was unimpressive. I was expecting more, since they were "McKay's special patties", but it literally tasted like patty king frozen jamaican patties that you can buy in any grocery store, which they sliced open to add some shredded lettuce, a strip of cheese (like the kind the sub shops use), and a glob of mayo. I would not order the patty again. I WOULD however go there again for pizza, but next time I will get a fresh pizza made to order, rather than a slice. All in all, 4 stars. Loses 1 star for the patty, and also for the fact that they let their phone ring and ring (lots of orders come in on the phone), with the ringer set to LOUD, while the employees were just standing around. It was annoying to...

This place has gone down hill went to pick up a pizza tonight at 730pm it was burnt and the old man who makes the pizza with grey hair said it’s my fault for not asking for it to be undercooked he poked my pizza several times with his unsanitary knife and then closes the box and gave it back to me causing a scene taking my complaint personal. This was very disrespectful and 0 customer service will never go back after the way he addressed the situation. He also admitted in our conversation that one side was cooked more due to it being vegetarian and said I shouldn’t get half and half pizzas then. After saying this I said I don’t have the knowledge to know this and next time the staff needs to advise this when I order as I originally said as going to get 2 pizzas anyways. He said that I never tried it so I can’t make a complaint yet stood there defending the pizza with his life, very embarrassing. Save your money 32$ for a large pizza go to PIZZA PIZZA atleast they’ll remake your pizza IF they BURN IT! Without poking it first then forcing you to take it home …...
