Wow. Bloody delicious! I feel bad for expecting something mediocre, because as soon as my order arrived and I opened the boxes I could see the attention to detail and generous ingredients on both pizzas. I’ll confess, I am bit of a cynic… so when I saw such a high rating for a reasonably-priced independent pizza place in Walton… 125 reviews, all of them glowing reviews! I was a bit puzzled to be honest. It’s an independent pizza joint in Walton… Being from London originally, independent pizza places are glorified fried chicken shops, and most of their items are cooked from frozen, when it comes to the big players, they are no better. Our Pizza Hut back in North London didn’t use enough pizza sauce and it’s pizza are bone dry, our local Domino’s would often send undercooked pizzas out and their toppings were slimy and wouldn’t taste fresh - then I made the move to Frinton which has almost nothing to offer in way of take-away. I took a punt and ordered from Family Pizza Walton, first calling them up to check if they would delivery to Frinton (extremely friendly and warm) and to my delight they did delivery to the isolated little graveyard that is Frinton! Their pizzas arrived very quickly, piping hot, the dough is soft fluffy, yet thin enough to feel like an authentic Italian pizza, they’ve struck the perfect balance for the depth of their base - not cakey or too deep, but still a little softness and not too thin. The dough they use has to be homemade, as the crust (which is usually very dry from the big chain pizza take-aways) remained soft long after the pizza cooled and there was a lovely golden coating to it, a slight crunch and soft inside. I usually avoid crusts, but on this occasion it was a pleasure to eat them all. A satisfying amount of sauce on our BBQ sauce option, could of appreciated a smidge more tomato pizza sauce on our standard pizza sauce base option. But both pizza were sensational, honestly. They put a generous amount of cheese on both pizzas without being greasy, generous chunks of onions, olives, it all feels very home-made and not something they bring in frozen - such attention to detail, very well presented. I am so bloody impressed to be honest, just when I was starting to feel a bit down with how little is on offer here in Frinton. I hope this wonderful Walton business continues to do well for years and years to come and their standards stay the same - they clearly take a lot of pride in what they provide. Whoever is constructing the pizzas and preparing the dough clearly has passion for food. One last thing that made me very happy - They have an array of ice cream options, dare I say, better stocked than our local Sainsburys here in Frinton. I’ve only been in Frinton for 15 months. I feel a bit isolated and sometimes I feel like I miss London and all it had to offer, discovering this brilliant pizza joint has really made me feel happier. On the few occasions that my friends have come up and visited me, I always feel a bit embarrassed because there’s not really much I can offer them in way of takeaways and movie night food… so now I’m really looking forward to the next time my friends visit and we have a night in. I’ll be ordering pizzas again from this wonderful business. Thank you again for an excellent experience. I’m so used to being let down by the poor standards in London it’s great to see such genuine passion in a pizza restaurant - makes me proud to have moved here. Long Live Family Pizza Walton! ??????

This pizza was incredible. We stumbled across it and what a find. The dough is made fresh on site and you can personalise your pizzas however you like. Prices are super reasonable and it beats any chain pizza I’ve had. Thanks guys :)

Last time I used this company was last summer during a family get-together. We ran out of coals for the BBQ so ordered a bunch of pizzas instead. They were delivered late and were without doubt the worst pizzas I've ever had - luke warm, paper thin with barely any toppings. Absolute waste of money and will never use this company again. Its a shame because they used to be much better.

Worst pizza ever! Crust was paper thin and topping non existent. When we complained, we were given replacements that were just as bad. Pizza so bad even the gulls wouldn’t eat it. Do yourself a favour, grab a cheap frozen pizza from Aldi, it will be far better than this rubbish.

Staying in a hotel rental for a few days & ordered some food online and requested a delivery. Easy to use website and a very prompt service. All the food we ordered was delicious especially the pizzas. My only criticism was the roll used for the chicken burger. The burger itself was excellent but the roll was too big for the size of the meat portion and the bread used not that great. But this was a small blip and I would still recommend this eatery to others.
