Great Italian restaurant for this part of Thailand, and honestly a really solid restaurant just in general! After spending weeks having mostly Thai food, it was a really nice break to come here and try some pizza and other Italian dishes.
We tried coming the day before and got here 30 minutes before they opened (not really checking the time on Google) and I could see the cooks prepping dough in the kitchen, so I could tell they made all their menu items fresh - not just microwaved and prepared days in advance! Always a comforting thing to see them making food items fresh! 😊
When we finally came for dinner the next day, we ordered the Hawaiian pizza, garlic bread as well as the tomato/basil/mozzarella salad! All were great choices and I would recommend to anyone! There were many great pizza choices on the menu; the pizza is quite thin and a bit crunchier than your standard pizza, but it still tasted good and I honestly liked it a lot! Maybe more like a flatbread than a pizza! As for the garlic bread, they had homemade garlic butter they put on the bread - REALLY good and exactly like something I’d get back home. Very garlicky and exactly what I was hoping for! Finally, the tomato/basil/mozarella salad was excellent. Another thing that ended up being exactly like I was hoping!
You’ll be hard-pressed to find anywhere else in Kanchanaburi that gives you this good of food at this price - there’s one Thai restaurant a little up the road that you could argue is on par (Kin Khao Lam)…but then again, that’s Thai, and this is pizza! So if you’re in the mood for pizza and other Italian food, check out...
Read moreVisiting Kanchanaburi with the kids, and they wanted pizza. Bells had good reviews on Google. Parked up next door and walked towards Bells, only to be told by a scummy Thai guy that we couldn't park there (after making sure we weren't going in his place). After finding somewhere else to park, we finally arrived in Bells. Went to sit down and a passing farang pointed down at my feet. Thinking I'd dropped money, I looked down. Nothing. Confused, I looked up at the guy. "Shoes!" It seems this guy was the owner and he wanted me to take my shoes off and leave them outside. When I said that I didn't want to, I was asked to sit at a table outside, on the busy road. Exit one family.
This pizza place is in a farang ghetto, surrounded by "bars" and weed vendors and this guy is concerned about my shoes! Get real fella! Apart from my two kids, who are half Thai, there wasn't a brown face in the restaurant. Not that the Thais eat with their shoes off. We just had a glorious trip down through Thailand's western mountains and the central plains; not a white face in sight and every restaurant/eatery we visited, the Thais had their shoes on. I've been coming to Thailand for alnost 40 years and I cannot remember bring asked to take my shoes off in a restaurant before.
Can't wait to leave tomorrow. Last visited Kanchanaburi 30 years ago and its decline has been...
Read moreI have been to this restaurant several times over the years, and it’s very popular with Farang, maybe because they offer pizza and pasta dishes, they also offer Thai food. Their location is also great, right on the high street near all the bars etc. However this time the food seems to have gone downhill. The vegetarian pizza I had was greasy looking, burnt around the outside and there were only 7 very small slices of mushroom, maybe one small whole mushroom, and the mushroom was not even fresh it was a canned mushroom, this is really not good for 230 THB. The salad I had was absolutely drenched in balsamic vinegar, just too much. On a brighter front the cheesecake was delicious and highly recommended. Service was great and everything arrived speedily and the young lady was friendly...
