We live in a nearby town, and drive to Sylva for Speedy's pizza. Great crust, sauce, and we love the local atmosphere!

Pizza craving was fulfilled greatly with a wonderful pepperoni pizza for Grandma and grandson. I ordered the manicotti and meatball side which was well presented. Great service and clean.

We used to have to drive to Waynesville to eat here, but now there's one in Sylva! Get there early because it fills up quickly! Same great taste and menu!
