Head on over to Ferrymead this weekend for the first taste of Pizza Republic.

Pizza Republic is launching this week featuring a wicked pizza menu, with all the traditional hits and a whole range of creative new additions.

Owner Mike (AKA The Big Cheese), who started in hospo as an 18-year old wine waiter on the West Coast, has spent over a decade working a pizza joint in Ferrymead. There are a ton of things worth making your way to Pizza Republic for, like happy hours on Thursdays and Fridays, Family Fiesta deals on Sundays and What Up Wednesdays.

For competitive folk, the highlight of the new menu might just be 'The Big Cheesy', a collosal 75cm pizza that comes in Beef & BBQ, Margherita and Pepperoni. If that's not worth getting your mates together for, you're too hard to cheese.
