They never answer the phone. You can call 3-4 times at different times of the day/ night and nothing. Use to place Togo orders and pick up on my way home but really don't understand having a phone if no one answers. Pizza is great if ya get it or are able to order read more

We love this pub! It's clean, well decorated, and adorable! They serve pizza and tacos and they're SO good that's all you will want to eat anyway. ‍ The beer is cold, so sit back and enjoy yourself! read more

Been coming to this spot for several years when we make the drive to Holland. This place is a must stop! Pizza is delicious, beer is cold, and the staff are amazing! Can't wait for my next trip back. read more

The pizza here is just about the best in town. I've never had any problems with The pizza service or the price. What to pay for and this is definitely worth the money read more

Sorry Skiles. Never again. Your pizza is good, but the service is terrible. Two times in a row we were seated and ignored for 15-20 minutes. Our server never asked if we wanted a drink. I had to go to the bar myself to get two waters. I won't even call again for a pizza takeout because no one will answer the phone. Adios. read more

We had the most relaxing time in this pub! I love the service, the low key vibe, and we took our pizza home. It was delicious! I think I'll go back tomorrow! read more

A classic bar style pizza that is very good (not my style) with good crunch and good taste. I wasn't a fan of the crust personally, it's not your typical style pizza crust but that may be due to the "bar style" that the pizza resembles. Crunch 8:10 Taste 8/10 Flop 1/10 Crust 2/10 Undercarriage 4/10 Again the crust was really big for me, it was hard and tough and personally hurt my teeth a little bit to bite into which lowered the score a lot for me! That's the review! https://onebite.app/restaurant/skiles-tavern-holland-mi-3b55bc5b/review/aa29c145-5e6f-47ea-bdcd-0960e62e5a4d read more

Skiles Tavern - A classic bar style pizza 6.9/10 - Pizza Near Me - Holland, Michigan

Yes. 5 stars. They are a long time Holland staple. The staff is always hustling and slinging pizzas and drinks as fast as they can and they have a great attitude. I don't want to call this place diver but that's the best explanation. They are no frills. They have a decent selection of beer and seltzers. Their pizza is thin crust and crunchy and several options for toppings. They have a couple things that are not pizza. Their loaded nachos have a bunch of toppings including olives and mushrooms. I suggest getting their large pizza and having leftovers. Can't go wrong. read more

Wow, is this place terrible. The pizza is tolerable, but way too expensive and super basic. Look at our picture and see if you can spot the itty bitty bits of onion or green pepper for which we paid 1.25 each. It's like they took a teaspoon of frozen onion and pepper mix from Meijer and tossed it on. It wasn't cute nearly all the way through, making eating it a pain. The fact that it was quite greasy and served on a cardboard circle made it impossible to cut with the utensils provided, so we had to grease up our hands to tear it apart. It was so poorly cut, it wouldn't tear along the cut lines. The service was lousy. We walked in on a Friday afternoon to an empty dining room, and no one greeted us. Eventually someone noticed us, but didn't bother to say hi. We were seated probably more than 15 minutes before someone finally came by to ask what we wanted to drink. Our waitress was audible in the next room complaining about a customer from some other time. Real charmer, she was. She brought our receipt and read the amount to us. Didn't show it to us. Was this her way of saying, "I'm done with my shift, so if I just tell you your amount, hopefully you'll pay immediately and I can leave." The food took another 15-20 minutes to come out -- it was a single pizza. The pepperoni and sausage (which tasted like store-bought breakfast sausage, the sort of flavor you've never had on a pizza) were in OK proportions, but the onion and pepper were, as noted above, pathetic. There are no napkins at the tables. They gave us teeny tiny paper plates for the food. I despise this place. It is so incredibly poorly done that I can't believe it's still in business. In fact, when we showed up -- as noted above -- the dining room was empty. On a sunny Friday summer afternoon, when Holland was quite busy, and other establishments had plenty of traffic. I think I know why. The locals know better than to come here. This is some of the worst money I've ever spent. What a terrible ending to an otherwise decent day in Holland. Do not come here. Hopefully this place dies a swift death. For all our sakes. I'm attaching a picture, but reluctantly, because somehow it makes the pizza look "pretty good". It's not. read more

Skiles Tavern - Can YOU find the onion and green pepper in this picture? Would you pay a buck twenty-five for those bits? - Pizza Near Me - Holland, Michigan

Excellent pizza great prices and the best service in town. Spotless dining room and friendly staff

living in Chicago my whole life we've always enjoy good local pizza. This place really hit. The spot service was wonderful. The pizza was excellent. The pricing was affordable. I'm gonna become a regular. read more

Great staff, decent pizza & prices. Closest thing you'll get to a regular bar in Holland!

I can't rate the food or atmosphere, but I did find the service to be disappointing. I love pizza but I try to eat healthy, so for many years I have only been eating it rountinely 3 times per year and it's something I really look forward to . I eat it twice a year during summer vacations at Morro's in Saukatuck, who to me has the best pizza in the area, but are closed during the winter season. The 3rd time is always at Jets on Holloween, as we always have family and friends over to celebrate this Holiday. This year for Holloween, we decided to try a new pizza and decided on Skiles. I called them on my work lunch break to place the order, to be picked up at 5 by family on their way to my house. I was told by the person who answered the phone, that I was calling too early and that I couldn't call until 4:30 to place the order. I asked her if that was enought time to get the 3 pizza's ready by 5 and she said that maybe I should call at 4:15. I thought it was strange that I couldn't place the order, but I got out of work early, rushed home so I could place the order. For 30 minutes I called (close to 50 times), and the phone was either busy or someone answered it and hung up on me multile times. At 4:45 I gave up but was now in a panic trying to figure out what to do when guests were going to be at my house in 15 min. I ultimately called Jets and we were eating at 5:15. The whole experience was very stressful and disappointing for someone who is a planner and organized, I guess it's best to stick with what works. Skiles could have gained a new customer, but they lost that opportunity as I will never order from or vist this establishment. read more

WORST service ever !!! We walked in at 12:30, one person at the bar, one table of four in the dining area. Two people behind the bar, one was "bitching" about another employee to the other person. No one turned to greet us. Continued conversation for another 5 minutes then they both walked away-one completely left and the other one walked to the other side of the bar turned and looked at us without saying a word !!!! No wonder no one was in there !!! Will never go back !! read more

Best pizza in west MI. Great bar setup & atmosphere. No complaints ever when going here.

The lady behind the bar on the first day of Tulip Festival was obviously frazzled and pissed off that she had to work. She was scooping ice out of the bin with a glass container repeatedly and slamming them down on the bar in front of us. When the glass inevitably broke, she just picked one piece of glass out of the ice and kept scooping ice with the next glass. When we told the gentleman behind the bar, he decided to get pissed AT US! So you apparently don't care about health and safety, and resent it when people complain. It's not your customers fault you're understaffed and frustrated. read more

The pizza is good and unique flat pizza. You will be surprised how much pizza you can eat. The service is slow and the beer is usually skunky but this location is a classic dive bar pizza and worth it. This is one of our favorite pizza's when people come to visit. It's actually fun to be there and amusing. The servers are grouchy but don't take it personal. I recommend this place if you can handle the paper plates experience. read more

I had the Skiles special while on a walking food tour in Holland. The crust on the pizza was absolutely delicious, and while the toppings were good, they weren't my favorite. However, I think that might be an ordering fault of my own! I'm not a huge fan of sausage and pepperoni. The inside of the building looks like a classic pizza joint that you'd eat with your family. It has been around for over 70 years and it's a real staple of the community. The owner is super nice and always willing to tell you stories about the history of the restaurant. If you're in Holland and looking for a toasty pizza and a warm place to sit this is a great option. read more

We are from the area but had not tried Skiles, so after some positive recommendations we finally tried it. I can't quite understand why this place has so many 5 star ratings. We ordered 1 special and one pepperoni pizza. We waited a little less than an hour and the pepperoni came out hot but just barely done while the special came out cold and well done. The crust was cracker-like at the edges and soft in the middle,overall mediocre. Toppings were scarce on the pepperoni. I wouldn't call the atmosphere super inviting, no menus except for a sign on the wall, and after telling out waiter it was our first time all we got was "I'll give you a few minutes." We really wanted to like this place but I see no reason to go back. read more

Always loved this place. Great pizza with a nostalgic feel. This is a wonderful hometown bar. Definitely makes me feel like I belong there. The people have always been inviting and warm and that is what makes the visit fun. I'm glad I could help a little during this tough time. read more

My kids ordered a pizza with HAM and BANANA PEPPERS. it wasn't busy, nor noisy. They very clearly said banana peppers. The server brought ham and pineapple. She said ' we don't offer banana peppers, so I put on pineapple. This was our first time here, the kids assumed banana peppers were offered, she should have stated we don't offer banana peppers while they were ordering. Then she changed her story after I said 'they won't eat it' and she said 'well they ordered pineapple'. And she walked away. This was Monday approximately 5:00. They very clearly did not order pineapple. No substitutes were offered, and we paid full price for a pizza they had to scrape toppings off. Very poor customer service. And both pizzas were just ok. Soggy crust, no sauce. read more

Poor service. Extremely slow service and no menus. They just expect you to know what you want. Worse yet, they bring out this insanely greasy pizza on the world's tiniest PAPER PLATES! What a complete joke. Never again. read more

I've been coming here for years but no longer. First, the service tonight was extremely rude. We understand it's difficult to find help, but the way we were treated was unacceptable and we will not be going back. I understand how hard worked and understaffed the restaurant industry is but the rudeness is totally unnecessary particularly given we approached the wait staff with respect and understanding. We waited 25 minutes for the table to be cleared, which never was, and had to get up and find a server, then go to the bar.The bartender was extremely rude and I would suggest she was not self aware but she wore a "I hate people shirt", and boy was she right. Really a bit childish but I wouldn't care if she wasn't so rude. Word of advice, before eating go in the bathroom and understand that the people making your food are "cleaning" their hands in there. read more

The "Skiles Special", absolutely freaking delicious! It was crispy, hot, a little greasy and loaded with toppings, just the way it should be in my opinion. The drinks were properly poured (not skimpy at All) and the bar tender Ron was friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend this place. The next time we come to Holland, we will come back! read more

One of the best pizza spots in Holland. Dive-Bar feel. Juke box for tunes. Order the Special and pitcher of beer (21+) and roll with it. Paper plates and extra napkins included. It can be a busy joint so be patient with the kitchen if backed up. It will be hot when it arrives. read more

The last time I personally ate there was 2013. Since then I've heard nothing but bad things, so I haven't been back. In 2013 I noticed there must had been a change in ownership or management because the pizza was absolutely terrible and there was no longer an actual menu. When I first moved to Holland in 2004 Skiles was an institution. I loved it as well. I'm not sure what happened about a decade ago and how they continue to stay in business?? read more

Wafer thin and limited selection of toppings. We have tried Skiles on numerous occasions and every time it has been pretty average. My issue is that the Pizza is so thin it's like the base is made with Phyllo pastry. Ok they are decent sized Pizzas but still you don't get a lot for your money. Also if you want to select your toppings, you have a very limited selection. So you get a very basic ultra thin pizza for the money. I've really tried to like this place since it has been around since the prehistoric age and is an institution, but I'm sorry, there are better places to eat pizza. read more

Was walking around Holland with a bunch of friends and we felt like having pizza. We called and they were able to accommodate us with 15 people! We ordered chips and salsa and a large pepperoni and a large sausage pizza. Everything was so so good. Great service! We demolished everything. I highly recommend this pizza place. You would NOT regret stopping in. read more

Their pizza is consistently great and service is always good. Also a good value, no where else can you get a larfe Pizza that will feed four for the price. read more

So happy I stopped in to this no frills pizza bar during my vacation to Holland. This place definitely gives off college bar vibes and I assume Hope College students frequent this place. The menu is simple and hanging on the wall. Pizza, sandwiches, and tacos thats it! My group ordered two large pizzas (one sausage/bacon, one Pep/onion) and a pitcher of beer, Miller Lite of course, but they have some craft options as well. The pizza was AMAZING. The crust was perfectly crisp and cut into tiny squares making it super easy to eat. The cheese was generously applied, but not overpowering. The true star of the pizza in my opinion was the sausage which had great flavor and worked great with the bacon and tangy pizza sauce! A fun little quirk about this place is that instead of to-go pizza boxes, you get tin foil to wrap your pizza up to take home. This was a truly delightful bar with top notch pizza, I would love to come back to drink some beers and enjoy delicious pizza. read more

VERY limited cocktail and beer selection. Was not crowded at all and it's not difficult to see why.

What a great find. We were in town for the Tulip Festival and wanted to get a bite to eat. Their menu couldn't be more simple. Pizza, taco's or sandwiches. Ima deep dish girl from the Metro Detroit area, but this pizza was very flavorful and the crust was nic lay done with the perfect crisp to the underside. You received a very generous pour. The tin ceiling added the perfect ambiance to this gem. read more

TL;DR Bad pizza, worse service, and our group was threatened because we were falsely accused of not tipping enough on our bill. Came here with my family for some pizza and beer. Bartender lets us know they're busy, and things may take a little while because they're swamped. We say we understand, we know how working in food service is. We put in our order for 3 pizzas and beer. Beer arrives, and we wait for our food. For 2 hours. Have to go back up to the bar for any refills (which also take over 15 minutes to get served at the bar). Finally, we decide to pay and ask for our pizzas to go instead. Bill is $100, we still tip 20% even though she didn't deserve it. As we are getting up to leave, one woman at the bar accuses us of only tipping $4, and the bartender corroborates her lie! Even though we have the receipt to prove otherwise! Two men from the pool table block the entrance and start threatening a fight! We throw another $20 on the bar to avoid a physical altercation and ultimately they let us leave. Will NEVER come back here again, and would highly caution anyone who is thinking about trying this place. Not only is the food and service horrible, it is downright dangerous. read more

Stopped for the first time-- waited awhile for waitress (tavern was half full). Once we placed our order watched as the person bringing out the pizza stopped at 2 other tables (of the 5- including us) before reaching us. That was the last we saw of her or our waitress. Had to go up and ask for a box (which was given to the 3 tables around us that the waitress acknowledged). We were brought a piece of tinfoil. When asked for a box the reply was that they don't give boxes unless I wanted her to go into the basement. Our bill was slammed down and both women walked away. Never came back to get payment, so paid in cash and left. Never going back to an establishment that gushes over some patrons (I didn't expect a hug like others received- but I did expect to have somebody stop back and check-in) while ignoring others. read more

We were told to "sit wherever you want" - yet where we sat was clearly a problem with the staff and we were ignored for 20 min. We went to the bar and were treated like crap there. We offered to move as it became apparent we were not in a preferred spot and they agreed that would be better for them, so we moved. Then, after waiting 15 more min, we flagged down a server and were told "I'm not ready yet." We have been here an hour and JUST ordered. Unbelievably good pizza. The absolute worst service in Holland. Order takeout. read more

Good pizza, good service, decently cheap beer, pretty good hours. Clean place. They have a pool table and quite a bit of seating. Good selection of drinks, and the service is friendly and entertaining. One of the better place holland has to offer read more

Best pizza in west Michigan! Been looking for a decent pizza parlor since I moved from Chicago and this place is like a little bit of home.
