Our favourite local takeout spot. We usually get the large lasagna and garlic bread. Everyone loves it.

We just moved to the neighborhood and thought we would try out local establishments. What an absolute delightful gentleman! It was pouring rain when I came in to pickup my pizza order. He walked me out to my vehicle with an umbrella! The pizzas were great too! Cooked perfectly and loaded with toppings! So glad we gave Papa Sam's a try! We will be ordering again! (Forgot to take pictures before we started eating!)

Classic local pizza shop. No extra frills, just fantastic pizza that’s always made on time. In my opinion, it’s the best pizza dough and there is no shortage of toppings/cheese on it. Best pizza place in Stittsville, top 3 in Ottawa

We ordered a large veggie pizza and a medium cheese pizza. The pizza was definitely loaded with plenty of cheese and the veggie pizza was the same with fresh tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, green peppers and lots of green olives. It was like I was eating a Chicago style pizza each slice was heavy and to hold all this, the crust was light airy yet thick, tasted amazing! Will try again, thanks for the great pizza!

The owner is awesome, and atmosphere is great. I love this little spot. Go sit on the porch in the shade and watch locals putter by.

Food is amazing, prices are good, and the owner is the absolute best. I had my 3 year old with me. He took her over and let her pick out any ice cream she wanted (on the house). Had her sitting up on the counter. She was just delighted. It was an overall great experience and I would recommend Papa Sams to anyone looking for a good meal and even better conversation.

A lovely little local store. Prices are fair and food is very good. I've stopped here for poutine several times. Very good vibes.

We happened to stop in on a rainy Saturday afternoon, and we are so lucky we did! Sam was so friendly and welcoming, we can’t wait to go back and visit him again. The pizza was FANTASTIC, perfectly cooked with generous, quality ingredients. His homemade garlic sauce is dangerously good. Thanks for making our day Sam!
