Bacon cheeseburger pizza is delicious. Owner was extremely friendly and provided us with great service.

Some of the best pizza you can find. From the Shamrock Special, to ham & pineapple, and pepperoni...through the years we've tried them all!
The Paytons
Their crust is amazing and their pepperoni is to die for. Their mac n cheese pizza is also awesome.

The Shamrock has been a favorite for many years. It's home made pizzas and friendly atmosphere have made it a Southend landmark.
