“ This was honestly the best pizza I've had outside Italy. Fresh and authentic base with great quality ingredients on top, which you can see being prepared via the glass counter. The staff are friendly and the smells inside the restaurant are incredible as they cook their delicious food. We had the Hawaiian pizza with added garlic and chilli and sheeps livers, with a side of fries. Everything we ate was fresh and tasty and I can't wait to come back. ”

“ Earlier this year, we moved and were thrilled to discover Franco’s right on our doorstep. Deciding to dine in, we were blown away by their incredible food, which is also available for takeaway. As a self-proclaimed tomato garlic bread expert, theirs was phenomenal—a true standout! The BBQ chicken wings were delightfully crispy with a perfectly tangy sauce. The pizzas were equally impressive, generously topped without skimping on quality. My personal favorite, the ‘La Corte’ with chicken instead of pork, is now a staple order. Highly recommend!

“ The best pizza I have ever had! Much better even then in proper Italy! Love to go there. The place is very cosy. Friendly professional staff. Very romantic place with pure Italian decoration. Great proces for high quality food served. The one thing I am missing there is an Italian music in background. Overall 10!!!! I am there every time we are celebrating. ”

“ My Italian Leyland pizza experience In the heart of Leyland, there's a gem of Italian culinary culture known as Franco's Italian Pizza which I must give credit too. This traditional pizza haven continues to impress myself and his patrons, and for good reason. From the moment you step inside, you're taken to an atmosphere of authentic Italian hospitality. With Mr. Franco himself overseeing the action, the restaurant is a testament to his unwavering dedication and passion for delivering a true taste of Italy. Visual Spectacle and Unmatched Quality as we watched. Watching the chefs at Franco's (in clear view) create each pizza and meal is an experience in itself. They work tirelessly with fresh, high-quality ingredients and meticulous skill to prepare the perfect pizza and most delicious menu offerings. You witness the pizza dough being expertly kneaded, stretched, and topped with a variety of fresh toppings before it's popped into the Italian oven. As the dough crisps and the cheese bubbles, you can almost taste and smell the magic happening in front of your eyes and nose. Generous Hospitality One of the highlights of dining at Franco's is the thoughtful hospitality that patrons receive. Mr. Franco is known for his warm generosity, often offering a complimentary cheese garlic bread to accompany the main meal. It's the perfect appetizer to whet your appetite while you wait for your pizza. After the savoury course, the selection of traditional Italian gelato provides a sweet, refreshing conclusion to any meal. Passion and Perseverance Mr. Franco's dedication is nothing short of inspirational. Despite having only one leg, (i'm sure he won't mind me mentioning this) he personally ensures with energy that every pizza leaving the kitchen meets his very high standards. This determination is not just a testament to his strength but also to his unwavering commitment to quality to each and every customer. As I sat there and watched my meal being prepared you can see that every pizza and dish reflects his love for traditional Italian cuisine, and every bit of his food tells a story of passion and perseverance. Well here's my conclusion. 5* Franco's Italian Pizza stands out as one of the finest Italian pizza restaurants in Leyland, bringing the essence of Italy to the local community. Whether you dine in or opt for their reliable delivery service, you'll find an unmatched level of authenticity and quality. The restaurant's warm ambiance, the chefs' skills, and Mr. Franco's dedication create an extraordinary taste experience for families and individuals alike. Thank you Mr Franco, you are a perfect example of consistent dedication, and in my house, we love your food for sure. (Especially on a Friday night) Thank you ”

“ After hearing positive reviews about Franco's I decided to book a table for a works party. Not really realising that the seating area is pretty small and having booked a table for 17 l was a little apprehensive about where we would all sit and how the staff would cope with such a large group in a small space. The staff were absolutely amazing and on form with everything. Even right down to last minute changes with people dropping out and others joining, they took it all in their stride. The food was beautiful, freshly cooked full of flavour and all came out together. Thank you for accommodating us you guys were all amazing. I would highly recommend Francos for a meal out. 5 service and food. ”

“ I cannot speak highly enough of this place, I love it and been several times. I feel like I’m in Italy, love the open kitchen and everyone is exchanging conversations with each other some in Italian it’s just wonderful, and to top it off you have the owners Angela and Franco and believe you me they don’t come better than them two. See you again soon. Thank you to you all. ”
