Checkers Pizza — Restaurant in Terrace

So, my friend and I were making our way back home from a trip to Prince Rupert, and we decided to spend a night in Terrace. Around mid-afternoon, the both of us got pretty darn hungry, and asked a cashier in a local gift-shop if there were Chinese restaurants around town. She suggested one, but when we arrived, empty-stomachs and all, it was closed. Saddened, my friend and I drove aimlessly around the city, in desperate hope to find some damn good food sooner than later... And that's when we passed by Checker's Pizza. From inside my car, we could see inside the building. Although we both weren't even thinking about pizza the entire afternoon, we couldn't help but notice a cute delivery boy working behind the counter, and so, being boy-crazy teenagers, we pulled up into their parking lot and rushed inside. Yes, the delivery boy was ridiculously cute, and so was the inside of the building. You could see the whole kitchen, along with the magic it performs while creating each individual pizza. The whole gang that worked there was super friendly, and handed us a brochure-menu filled with a variety of pizza choices. We placed our orders, and were told to come pick them up in roughly 40 minutes. At first, my friend and I thought 40 minutes sounded like an awful long time, but the time went by faster than we expected, and both pizzas were done just before we returned. Absolutely worth the time. The pizza was fantastic; the crust was a crispy-perfection, the cheese was melted just right, and the toppings were fresh and filled with effort. I am more than glad that fate brought us to this cute, friendly, tasty, local pizza place, as I will be stopping by again in a heartbeat if I were to visit Terrace in the future. Highly recommended for anyone, because they have such a huge selection of pizza choices that suit every single person.

Thank you,...

I still remember the first time I got into Terrace after a very long day of working & driving. Decided I wanted something fairly quick but also filling. Lone behold, right across the street on Greig Avenue in Terrace was what I was looking for. First time I tried their Pizza 🍕 and it was great. Never under cooked or soggy from grabbing take out. Lots of cheese & meat for the meat lover in me. Every time I end up back in Terrace I make sure to stop in and try something else if possible. Well, as you would know it, I came in to place an order & noticed one of their cooks checking on roasted chicken wings that they actually bake. I dare you to try & find better wings in Terrace. The Honey/Hot wings were so moist and also charred nicely on the outside & they literally fall off the bone 🦴 and melt in your mouth. The Caesar salad I ordered as well, came with fresh grated Parmesan, croutons, bacon bits & the perfect amount of dressing for the amount of romaine. Super Great owners, staff & everyone that I’ve engaged with are so friendly & make you feel like you’re at one of your relatives it’s such a family friendly environment. The name of the place may be Checkers Pizza, but they have to being playing chess for how good this little hidden gem on Greig Avenue is 5/5 gold...

I had Checkers pizza last night for the very first time. I was not disappointed. It was so good. Plenty of toppings, and no shortage on cheese…. And I love cheese. The owner was very kind and friendly. He talked with me while my second pizza was being made (even though he was busy), answering my questions, teaching me how their dough and cheese are made, as well their wings and how to save when placing an order if I need lots of pizza or just the right amount. The pizza dough was amazing, and still the next day. I even loved that I could eat the end crust. So much flavour. As for the wings… this pizza place does it correct. It’s worth the wait for the wings here. Cooked all the way through and amazingly the perfect amount of sauce. I’m drooling just thinking of it. Very clean place, easy to find, good parking, very friendly staff and owner. I’m definitely making this my #1 pizza place from now on. I would have photos but the pizzas and wings have already...
