IT’S time to grab a pizza the action!

Today, Friday, February 9, is National Pizza Day - a whole day dedicated to everyone's favourite cheesy Italian treat.

The cheesy topped dough that can be eaten hot or cold is a favourite when it comes to ordering fast food.

Do you go for a traditional margherita pizza with cheese and tomato or do you like extra toppings on every slice?

Last year, as part of our Best of 2023 campaign, we searched for Wirral's Best for Pizza venue.

We were inundated with nominations and put together a shortlist of the top ten pizza places.

You voted Pizza Mamma your number one pick and owner Emre Bomboz was rightly celebrating.

Here is a reminder of the top destinations for perfect pizza in Wirral - which will you try on National Pizza Day?
