DunnEnzies Pizza Downtown Kelowna
🍕 DunnEnzies Pizza Downtown is equal parts pizza joint, neighbourhood pub and wonderfully scruffy Kelowna music venue.
The original Ellis Street location has built a loyal following around enormous slices and creative pizzas like Pesto Pollo, Tony Beets, Donair, Butter Chicken and the pickle-loaded Pickle Rick, with plenty of customers still calling it their favourite pizza in town years after discovering it. But pizza is only half the personality here. Live punk, metal, indie and local bands regularly take over the room, skate culture runs through the place, and a full bar keeps things going long after dinner. Right in the heart of downtown and an easy walk from the Cultural District and Okanagan Lake, DunnEnzies is the kind of unapologetically quirky local hangout that could only really belong on Ellis Street.
