About Real Things Pizza
Getting a meal in Naramata means choosing from a short list clustered within a couple of blocks of the water, and Real Things Pizza is part of that list at 961 Robinson Avenue, the street that carries most of what passes for a commercial strip here. It is a small centre serving a bench community with no highway running through it and no wish to have one.
Pizza places differ in ways that matter once you are hungry. Some are counter and takeaway only, some seat a room, some do both, and the gap between ordering and eating stretches a long way on a busy evening. Dietary questions, whether a large order for a group can be taken on, and how far outside the village a delivery will travel are all things worth asking rather than guessing at from the roadside.
Summer changes the arithmetic here. Cyclists come off the Kettle Valley Railway grade, swimmers come up from the shore and visitors work their way along the wine roads, and all of them get hungry at roughly the same hour. A call to 250-496-4008 ahead of a group arriving, or a look at realthingspizza.com, saves a good deal of standing around. In the quieter months the rhythm of the village is different again, and phoning first is simply the sensible habit when the nearest alternative is the drive down the lakeshore road into Penticton.
