Calgary's Oldest Pizzeria Since 1963
Established in 1963, Tom's House of Pizza has been a cornerstone of Calgary's dining scene for over six decades. Our commitment to quality began with founder Tom Fowler's vision of using only the highest-quality ingredients and treating customers like family. Under subsequent ownership since 1988, we've preserved these traditions while maintaining our original production facility on Macleod Trail. Our thin-crust pizzas are crafted without MSG, oils, or eggs, featuring fresh, locally sourced toppings prepared daily in-house. From our famous house-made sauces to our signature pepperoni and salami, every ingredient reflects our dedication to authenticity. We take pride in supporting local suppliers and maintaining complete transparency in our food preparation processes.Our skilled team handcrafts pizza dough, sauces, and toppings daily at our Macleod Trail warehouse, ensuring consistent quality across all our locations. Whether you're enjoying our classic menu items or newer additions, every pizza maintains the same rigorous standards set in 1963. We operate with the same care as if preparing meals for our own families, creating an environment where pizza lovers feel truly at home. Our four convenient locations continue to serve Calgary with the same passion that made us the city's oldest existing pizzeria.
