Whether you're ordering dinner for the family, feeding a crowd, or just craving a late-night slice, pizza is always a great choice. At Pizza 2 Go, we've been serving fresh, handcrafted pizza to the Invermere community, and we've heard just about every pizza question there is.
We've put together this guide to answer some of the most common questions our customers ask, from choosing the right size, to storing leftovers and what our most popular pizza's are.
What Is the Most Popular Pizza?
Everyone has their favourite, but if there's one pizza that stands above the rest at our restaurant right now, it's the Canadian Rockies.
Loaded with flavour and packed with salami, mushrooms, our signature cheese blend, pepperoni, and bacon, it's become our signature pizza and the one we recommend most often to customers.
That said, you can never go wrong with the classics. Cheese, Pepperoni, and Hawaiian continue to be some of our best-selling pizzas year after year.
Sometimes simple really is best.
What Size Pizza to Order?
Every pizza we make is cut into 8 slices, regardless of size. The difference is how large each slice is.
Our pizza sizes include:
8" Personal Pizza – Perfect for one person.
11" Pizza – Great for one to two people.
14" Pizza – Usually enough for about three to four people, depending on everyone's appetite.
16" Pizza – Ideal for four or more people or for anyone wanting leftovers.
If you're feeding four adults with average appetites, we'd typically recommend a 16-inch pizza, or two smaller pizzas if you'd like more variety.
How Long Does Pizza Stay Fresh?
Fresh pizza is always best enjoyed the day it's made, but leftovers can still taste fantastic. Whether you've picked up dinner from us at Pizza 2 Go, or we delivered it to you, properly storing your leftovers means you can enjoy them again the next day.
Whether you're saving a few slices after a family dinner in Invermere, enjoying lunch at Lake Windermere, or relaxing after a weekend getaway in the Columbia Valley, leftovers can make an easy lunch or snack when stored correctly.
If refrigerated in an airtight container or wrapped well, pizza will generally stay fresh for 3 to 4 days.
Be sure to refrigerate leftover pizza within two hours after it's been served to keep it tasting its best.
If you're ordering delivery from Pizza 2 Go, you can also rest easy knowing we transport every order in insulated delivery bags to help keep your pizza hot and fresh from our oven to your door. Our goal is for every pizza to arrive tasting just as delicious as when it left the restaurant.
Is Cold Pizza Safe to Eat?
Cold pizza has been the subject of debate for years, but the good news is that yes, it's generally safe to eat—as long as it has been stored properly. If your leftover pizza was refrigerated within about two hours and has been kept cold, it's perfectly fine to enjoy straight from the fridge for up to 3–4 days. In fact, many pizza lovers swear that cold pizza tastes just as good, if not better, the next day!
However, if pizza has been left sitting at room temperature for more than two hours (or one hour on a very hot day), it's best to play it safe and throw it out.
Can Pizza Be Frozen?
Absolutely!
Pizza freezes surprisingly well. Wrap individual slices or the whole pizza tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then place it into a freezer bag or airtight container.
Frozen pizza is best enjoyed within 1 to 2 months for the best flavour and texture, although it remains safe to eat longer if continuously frozen.
What's The Best Way to Reheat Pizza?
There are several ways to reheat pizza, but some definitely work better than others.
Oven
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 8–10 minutes until the crust is crispy and the cheese is bubbling again.
Air Fryer
Heat at 350°F for 3–5 minutes. This is one of the quickest ways to get crispy crust.
Frying Pan
Place the slice in a non-stick pan over medium heat for a few minutes. Add a few drops of water to the pan (not on the pizza) and cover with a lid. The crust crisps while the cheese melts beautifully.
Microwave
The microwave works if you're in a hurry, but it tends to make the crust softer. Heating for 30–60 seconds usually does the trick.
Frying Pan With Steam (The Secret Method)
If you've never tried reheating pizza in a frying pan, you might be surprised by how well it works. Many pizza lovers consider this the best way to reheat leftover pizza.
Place your slice in a non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat and let the crust crisp up for about 2–3 minutes. Once the bottom starts to become crispy, add 1–2 teaspoons of water to the empty side of the pan—being careful not to pour it directly onto the pizza. Immediately cover the pan with a lid.
The water quickly turns into steam, gently reheating the toppings and melting the cheese while the pan keeps the crust nice and crispy. After another 2–3 minutes, your pizza will taste remarkably close to fresh from the oven.
It's a simple trick, but one that's become a favourite among pizza enthusiasts because it brings back both the crispy crust and gooey cheese without drying out the slice.
What Cheese Do You Use?
We use a special premium pizza cheese blend chosen specifically for its flavour, stretch, and the perfect golden finish in the oven and we like to think its part of the reason that makes our pizza unique.
While every pizzeria has its own approach, we've spent time selecting a cheese that melts evenly, delivers rich flavour, and complements every pizza on our menu.
It's one of the little details that helps make every bite delicious, and our pizza delicious.
