HELL Pizza's Harewood branch sits at 322 Harewood Rd in Christchurch, serving the north-west of the city as the local outlet of a pizza brand with a look you won't mistake for anyone else's. True to the name, HELL Pizza trades with a wink and a raised eyebrow: its branding leans happily into the macabre, with eyeballs, scythes, coffins, skeletal hands and a pizza-skull motif running through everything the company puts out. Underneath the theatrics, it is a neighbourhood pizza store — a place to get a hot pizza in the Harewood suburb.
The brand behind the store has a trans-Tasman footprint, operating dedicated websites for New Zealand (hellpizza.nz) and Australia (hellpizza.au) alongside its international home at hellpizza.com. The Harewood store trades under that same name and look, giving Christchurch locals a familiar brand close to home.
Menu details, current opening hours and branch contact information are best confirmed through HELL Pizza's official channels, as this listing draws on the brand's general content rather than a store-by-store snapshot. What you can count on is the premise: pizza for the people of Harewood, served with the brand's unmistakable dark humour.
On Harewood Road in Christchurch's north-west, the Harewood branch of HELL Pizza gives this quiet corner of the city its local outlet of a pizza brand that takes its name very seriously indeed. The store sits at 322 Harewood Rd in the suburb of Harewood, a straightforward stop for anyone in the neighbourhood after a hot pizza. And while the brand's look might raise an eyebrow at first — skulls, scythes and coffins feature prominently — the premise underneath the theatrics is a familiar one: a neighbourhood pizza store making pizza for the people around it.
HELL Pizza does not do subtle. The brand's website greets visitors with a parade of macabre motifs — a staring eyeball, a scythe, a coffin, a skeletal hand and, fittingly for a pizzeria, a skull nested inside a pizza. The company's skull icon and shadowy logo complete the effect. It is a visual identity built entirely around the brand's name, and it runs through everything HELL puts out into the world.
The tone is best read as playful rather than grim. This is a company that has clearly enjoyed leaning into its hellish theme, turning what could be a throwaway gimmick into a coherent, memorable style. For first-time visitors, that means the in-store and online experience comes with a steady dose of dark humour — but the product at the centre of it all is simply pizza.
HELL Pizza is a New Zealand story first. The company runs its main site at hellpizza.nz, and alongside it a dedicated Australian site at hellpizza.au, with hellpizza.com tying the two together. That structure tells you the brand has grown well beyond a single store, with a presence on both sides of the Tasman.
For the Harewood store, that means being part of a larger network: the local branch trades under the same name, the same look and the same overall identity as its sister stores across New Zealand and Australia. What stays local is the service — a Christchurch team making and handing over pizza to the people of Harewood and the surrounding suburbs.
At its heart, a visit to HELL Pizza Harewood is a visit to a pizza store. You choose your pizza, the team makes it, and you head off with dinner under your arm. The specifics — the full menu, the flavour line-up and any extras — live on the brand's official site, where the current New Zealand menu is published and kept up to date.
Because menus evolve and store details change, this listing draws on the brand's general content rather than a branch-by-branch snapshot. That makes the official HELL Pizza New Zealand website the most reliable place to confirm exactly what the Harewood kitchen is turning out today.
The store's address is 322 Harewood Rd, Harewood, Christchurch — easy to find for anyone in the north-west of the city. Opening hours, a direct phone line and the current menu for this particular branch are not published on the page this listing is built from, so it is worth confirming those details through HELL Pizza's official channels before you set out. Store hours in particular can vary from one branch to the next, and a quick check beforehand saves a wasted trip.
There are plenty of pizza options in Christchurch, but few brands commit to a personality the way HELL does. The Harewood store brings that personality to this slice of the city, pairing the brand's unmistakable imagery with the straightforward appeal of pizza done for the neighbourhood. Whether you are a long-time fan of the brand's style or simply new to the area and scoping out your local pizza options, the Harewood branch is where the two meet — a familiar product, delivered under a skull.
