Kanata’s Top 12 Pizza Joints That Had Us ‘Yeasting’ for More

pizza-joints-kanata-ottawa

Let me tell you, I’ve stumbled upon a heart-wrenching revelation: not all pizzas are created equal. Some, in fact, dare I say, are the culinary equivalent of expecting a text back but getting left on “read”—and that sucks!

So, here I stand (or sit, because, let’s be real, I’m probably lounging with a slice in one hand) as Kanata’s self-proclaimed pizza pundit. And I’m going to share with you the best pizza joints in Kanata that kept ruining my diet—yep, they’re that irresistible!

Gabriel Pizza on Stonehaven Drive is basically a local legend. Seriously, talk to anyone around Kanata, and they’ve got a favourite pizza from Gabriel’s.

Their menu’s huge—they’ve got everything from classic pepperoni to fancy gourmet toppings. And let’s not skirt around their specialty pizzas: the Gabriel Deluxe, Texas Bold-Em, and the Fajita are the real MVPs.

Pro tip:

Next time you’re craving some of Gabriel’s Pizza, consider leveling up your pizza game with their gift cards. Not only do these gift cards make perfect presents, but stocking up on a few for yourself isn’t a bad idea either.
