What people say, in short
Pizza Hacker draws recommendations for its sourdough-style crust, with one diner singling out the margherita. A regular describes it as a place where they can often walk in and sit down, rather than establishing a seating guarantee. Price increases and small, thin pies are recurring caveats, especially for family takeaway. Another regular still likes the pizza but says the crust does not match the particularly chewy style they were seeking.
