Pizza Monster: What started out as a backyard hobby turned into something wonderful for all of us to enjoy. This new pizza joint is located in the Inner Harbour at 213 Montreal Street. Pizza Monster serves wood-fired pizza with incredible flavour. The chewy dough and perfectly placed toppings are truly a work of art. They have 8 different signature options, and you won’t need anything else. Recommendations: Pineapple (yes, we said it) and Salami. So. Good!
