We are visiting the area and chose a quick dinner option! They delivered quickly and directly to our hotel room which was great with having a young child and dogs in hand. We ordered the Thursday special 16” two topping (cheese/pepp) pizza and 2 liter for $19, added 16” BBQ chicken, and small order of cheese bread. Pizzas were thin crust style. We did not like the crust, it was not our tasting. The toppings of the BBQ chicken pizza was ample and tasty. The small order of cheese bread was like a small loaf of bread with cheese melted on it. Thanks for a quick meal!

It might look like a 1980s Pizza Hut, but it doesn’t taste like a 1980s Pizza Hut. Trust me that’s a good thing.

I’ve been a fairly regular customer here with very good experiences, along with what I think is the best pizza in Whitehall. I would definitely highly recommend/suggest Big John’s, especially for tourists that like a thin crust style pizza, subs, etc. Keep up the great work guys & gals. I’ll definitely continue to be a customer.

Burned our wings and wouldn’t bring my sick mom a new order of them. They charge too much and their food sucks! Don’t bother with ordering in or out. They are terrible and terrible cooks! They charge a five dollar delivery fee and you still have to tip the driver. That’s at least 8 bucks right there before you even start ordering food. Awful, awful, all around!

Delicious pizza. Tried 2 recipes and both were excellent. One of the best super thin pizzas I’ve ever had.

Wanted to support a local business so I decided to order here. Unfortunately we are extremely disappointed. Spent a lot of money to get a tiny pizza, in which was very thin, and crunchy like a cracker, with minimal toppings. Got a “large” salad and it came in a personal size container. Super bummed to of spent 30$ on this meal and are on the way to get a 5$ hot n ready.

Ordered a pizza ahead of time, came in and got our drinks, just put in our straws and the pizza came out piping hot and ready to be devoured. The two of us were able to polish off all but three pieces. Nice experience for a local company, apparently been running since 1970! Will be back for more for sure!

I had the monster sub minus the sausage patty on it. I love doing their lunch special it’s a good price with plenty of food. Wish they were open Monday-Friday is the only thing.
