One word Bellisimo! By far the most delicious pizza place I have been to. I am normally disappointed at pizza shops for their lack of quality service. By I was shocked at the excellent quality of pizzas and service at a very reasonable price.

Approximate cost: $15

I love the Pizza Caffe @ UQ. Pizzas are so so so tasty and fresh! It can get pretty busy in peak eating times so be prepared to wait for your food.... but trust me, it's worth it!

The pizzas are very tasty here! They are cheap for uni students which is great but the food is still of high quality. The menu is extensive so if you are craving a particular pizza they tend to have it. The wait is generally a bit long, but the end product is worth it. I keep coming back, one of my favourite places to dine on campus.

Approximate cost: $10-15 a pizza

A great place to grab pizza from. The menu is rather unique (pizzas are listed by letters of the alphabet) and the choices make it tough to decide what to order - but that's a good thing!

I try to get eat there whenever I'm in the area and in the mood for a good pizza, not a cardboard one.

Quite good pizza here. Located on the UQ campus but open to the public. A good range of choices and the toppings are of good quality i.e. not can ham like you get at chain stores and not as oily. Prices are a tad high but if you want cheap then go to a chain store and have spam on your pizza instead. $14 to the public, with UQ staff $13 and UQ students $12. I noticed last week they are currently running $10 happy hour specials for students during early afternoon and for staff after hours. Good for when I'm are working late :-)

Approximate cost: $14

I love the varying menu at the Pizza Cafe. They have a large menu, a different pizza for each letter of the alphabet in fact (they are labelled A-Z), which makes it both very difficult to decide which pizza you and very easy to order it! They offer a discount when you show your UQ student card which is very handy and at $12 for most pizza,s which are large, it is great value for money. I would definitely recommend the Pizza Cafe. Quick service too!

Approximate cost: $12

Love the Schonell Pizza cafe, service is pretty quick and the pizzas are fresh and arent over loaded with toppings. They have a different pizza for each letter of the alphabet, eg. P = potato & M = Mushroom. Definitely worth a try. They also service thick italian style hot chocs - perfect for the rainy months.

The pizzas are usually quite good quality at the Pizza Cafe though they can be a little pricey. The Pizza Cafe is a good spot for catching up at UQ.

Great pizza, toppings tasted great. Although there was a very long line and wait afterwards. The crust is abit too thin for my liking but I know plenty of people who disagree, guess I just prefer more dough! Good atmosphere around the area but not enough places to sit unfortunately. This doesnt seem to be too much of a problem because the university has alot of grassy areas to sit and eat. Overall not a bad place to go for a feed.

Great place to catch up with friends and eat out. On uni-days it is a good place to grab a bite to eat, pizzas are a little on the pricy side but so is all the food at Uni

Simply put these are great pizzas. Certainly not your usual fair. The thin bases and interesting topping combinations make for a great pizza experience.

The pizza here is amazing. Really fresh and interesting toppings. However there can be bit of a wait sometimes just due to the place's popularity.

Great pizza with a thin and crispy dough. Present your student or staff ID, and you will get a discount. Refer to the menu. It tells you what you can expect from unfamiliar names.

Discovered this place whilst at uni. The pizza here is great and if you come on Sunday, they are just $10 each. Love the thin base and creative toppings. Would recommend getting a mixed pizza (2 slices from four different pizzas).

Approximate cost: $10

Great gourmet pizza at great student prices.

I don't see how you could go wrong here. The pizzas are better than other gourmet pizza places, and yet cost about half the price. Huge range too.

Sure, comparatively the prices are higher than what the cafeteria charges for the daily mystery schlop on a bed of pasta or rice, but compared to pizza of the same quality off campus, this place is a winner.

It is worth it to make a trip to this place when looking for pizza regardless of whether you go to uni or not.

I'm a fairly critical of food, and careful about what I say when recommending places. But I am willing to say this place has the best pizzas in brisbane for now.

Approximate cost: $12

I am no longer a uni student and will therefore miss frequenting the Schonell Pizza Cafe. They offer pizzas for every letter of the alphabet that taste delicious. They are good valuable for money and great to share with friends.

Anyone who's been a student at UQ has tried out the pizza cafe. The pizzas are great but can be a little pricey for the struggling student. There is heaps of variety and a few original pizzas and they are all delicious, as are the calzones. I continue to visit even now after I've graduated

The pizzas here are fantastic - real pizzas, not just the generic stuff chain stores pump out. The flavours are unique and the ingredients are individual. They also do a fantastic Italian Hot chocolate and it's so cheap for everyone, especially students. Service however is a bit impersonal because it is so busy.

The Pizza Cafe is the best place to get fed on campus at the University of Queensland in St Lucia. They have a great variety of gourmet pizzas which are reasonably priced. They serve alcohol too! :)

A casual alfresco eat with some friends, and some awesome pizzas. The service is pretty relaxed too, but that's not really a negative, that's just the sort of place that it is.

Conveniently located in the uni. Delicious gourmet pizzas (and a large selection A-Z!). Has indoor and outdoor dining, and their Italian hot chocolate is quite divine as well. They also service the Red Room (the uni bar downstairs).

Have been here a few times - service is slow at peak times (as expected) but staff are generally as friendly as you would expect from a pizza shop (most seem to be uni students). Great value for money and a large menu ensures everyone can find something they like. You can eat in or take away (and enjoy in the parklands).

Easily the best pizza in Brisbane! The Pizza Caffe is run by the UQ student union and I guess was initially started aimed at Uni students. It has quickly gained quite a reputation for their inventive pizzas with names that pay tribute to famous Italian directors, stars and films. Great pizzas, terrific prices... just a shame that the Schonell movie theatre isn't still open as well.

Approximate cost: $13.50
