Roost - Stockport

Ordered a take out to be collected with firehouse chips, collected got home no such chips in the bag so I rang up and was told I hadn’t ordered them at all by a terse young female who then said I could come and collect but would have to pay extra as hadn’t charged as I had not ordered checked with the kids who heard me on the phone who would not not hold back in telling me if I hadn’t ordered them

We continue to come here for family meetups as the location is perfect for us. Was disappointed after our last visit as the pizza was overcooked and took a while to come. It was quite busy when we got there on late Saturday afternoon and surprised the pizzas still took 30 mins to arrive after ordering! However, they were perfectly cooked, very tasty toppings and really good lovely doughy edges. I know most people wouldn't complain about food taking a while to come as they're happy sitting at the table talking. But when you book it makes it clear you have the table for 1.5 hours. We wouldn't have had the time for a starter, main and dessert even if we wanted to due to the time the food takes to come. (Luckily their pizzas are so filling there's no room for anything else! Amazing quality pizzas but it would be nice to be told in advance that the food will take a while to come (the best thing normally about pizza places is how quick food is served as they don't take long to cook Will still be back for the great pizza. (The staff are all great as well

This is the place I chose to meet up with family who are nearby as I've always enjoyed the pizzas here. We did have a good meal but again the pizzas were overcooked. The restaurant wasn't busy when we arrived at 5pm on Saturday, and there were 2 people working on pizzas. So not sure why they were overcooked, or why it took over 25 mins from ordering for the food to arrive? The service was good, and most of the pizza did taste really good. Bit of a shame they've gone away from the neopolitan style thick puffy edges they used to do (pre-pandemic) but the pizzas here still are very good. I've said this recently in my previous review but hopefully the overcooked pizza is a temporary thing, and I'll be back again next time I meet up with my family.

Not been for a while but came on Saturday early evening for a meal. Wasn't too busy while we were there and the service was good as always. I had the chicken chorizo and honey pizza. As always the dough was very good although I'd say that the pizza was overcooked and could have done with a minute less in the oven (the base was very very hard and crispy, and the edges were not as puffy soft as on previous visits). My wife had the chicken tenders with fries (upgraded to the roast loaded fries). The chicken tenders were very good. The chicken on my pizza as well as the chicken on top of the fries was quite dry and we expected better from a place that has a lot of chicken on the menu. I would choose the goats cheese and chorizo pizza next time as I've had that before and it was really good. And no point paying more for a pizza that has chicken on if it's going to be dry. We will come back again and I hope that the pizza isn't as well cooked next time. Hopefully it was just a one off. I recognise that there's a fine line between perfectly cooked and over cooked when it comes to pizza ovens, but the chef should be on top of it. Thanks for a good meal overall.

Another amazing meal in from Roost take out tonight. It’s a lovely little place that also offers the menu on a home delivery for those nights you want the meal but don’t want to go out. Pizzas and chicken are absolutely fantastic. Delivery staff always great too. Highly recommend visiting or ordering in! Easy to get a table in the week day evenings but would definitely book for Friday evenings and weekends. Thanks guys for another great meal
