I chose one star for the atmosphere review due to the high heat inside the store. The 115 degree heat index outside is cooler than the inside. I feel really sorry for those who work there and have to endure the heat in order to make sure we the customers have exceptionally yummy food in our bellies.

Ordered pizza at 5:09pm for delivery. Said approximate delivery time was 45 minutes. I waited until 6:18pm and called. Was told that it was out with the driver and should be delivered any minute. At 6:38pm I called again and was told it was out with the driver. When I told the woman on the phone that that is what she told me 20 minutes earlier, she replied with that wasn’t me. Then told me they have 5 deliveries to my area and that the driver just left 20 minutes ago and then corrected herself and said the driver left 10 minutes ago. Pizza was finally delivered at 7pm and was completely cold, not even a hint of warm to it.

I contacted Northern Lights for catering for an event for about 20 people. I received an email with special pricing and the staff walked me through everything on the phone. They helped me figure out how much to order and suggested popular combinations. Delivery was on time and everything was fabulous. I would definitely recommend NLP to anyone!

I love northern lights pizza! Even when busy and short staffed the pizza is quick, hot, and delicious. The lady at the counter even noticed our meal qualified for a deal I missed and made it right when I picked up the pizza. Northern Lights has been part of my life for over 20 years and this location is great.
