What's the grub like, then?
Mmmmmm i'v been there a few times and i think it is gorgeous!!

Very varied and lots to choose from as long as u like italian. And i do!

What did you drink?
I like lager i'm afraid (not excitin!), which isnt any diff from anywhere else but i believe it does have fancy cocktails if u want em.

And the vibe?
Nice, chilled out and has like private bays for couples or large open bits for... not couples!

Anything else you'd like to say?
I think this is fab if you like italian foodstuffs, but best to get there early.

Value for money?
I dont think its too bad to be honest, considering how much food you get. Then again i never pay ;-)

We’ve just got back from Bitz & Pizza – it is the Bank Holiday Monday after Christmas/New Year but I don’t really think that’s a great excuse for having to turn people away from 7:15pm for having run out of everything!! Our drinks at the bar whilst waiting for a table turned out to be free because though we asked, the bar staff never actually put them on our tab. My cream-based cocktail (with milk because they’d run out of cream) was very nice though, so that was a bonus!! The starters of potato skins were lovely, but had no red onion with them as stated in the menu. The main course was where things went wrong! I had a vegetarian Calzone ordered specifically without mushrooms (which I can’t eat). It came, not only with mushrooms (and not a great deal else) but also a piece of mince in the tomato sauce that came with it. I still feel quite nauseous that it made it’s way into my dinner after me not eating meat for 12 years, and it is reason enough not to go back. On the flip side, the staff were very friendly and my husband enjoyed his meal (although found his chicken, garlic, and mushroom calzone quite sickly for some reason), and the price wasn’t too bad (£37 for the 2 of us with 2 rounds of drinks [not including the ones before the meal which we never did pay for![) All in all, it wasn’t great, but I have been once in the past and that was OK.

Very, very dissapointing! I have been to bitz n pizza once before with friends & it was very nice. But this time it wasn't so good. Myself & my girlfriend (Alex) went on a tuesday night and it was fairly quiet, there were about another dozen people dining, so not much atmospher, just a dvd of friends playing in the background. For starter, We shared a combo which took ages to come, and when it did, the bread balls were burnt and dry on top, the chicken wings were cold and unappetizing with what looked like a sauce just thrown on top as an after thought. Even so, i could have eaten a plate full of the jacket potatoes with cheese on. But with half of the starter inedible, it wasn't very filling for two! For a main meal i had pasta alfredo, (recommended on the menu), there was plenty of chicken and pasta in it, but it was really greasy to taste, and warm not hot. I left it hardly touched. My girlfriend had vegetable lasagne, (where were the vegetables?) She did not enjoy this either. It was Just a few layers of pasta in a small cereal bowl with an inch of melted cheese on top. All in all, it was a very bad experience & bad food all round. However, as a positive, the waiter who served us was very friendly and polite, but didn't seem to want to hear our complaints. We won't go back again, and are shocked of how different the two visits were!
