Pizza is a religious institution in New York City, and everyone has their own gospel. From the $1 slice that saves a late night to the mom-and-pop spots locals swear by, every New Yorker has their own opinions on the best shops in town.

To add to the noise, we’re giving you a small taste of our founder’s ever-growing favorites. Download Pike to explore his complete guide and find every slice he’s deemed worthy.

Brooklyn Pizza Market

This spot is open until 3am. Do we need to say anymore?

📍269 Smith St, Brooklyn, NY

Joe & Pat’s Pizzeria & Restaurant

If you’re willing to make the trip out to Staten Island, you simply have to stop by the original location. Otherwise, there’s a branch in Manhattan.

📍1758 Victory Blvd, Staten Island, NY or 168 1st Ave, New York, NY

L&B Spumoni Gardens

It’s Sicilian square pizza at an old-style Italian counter.

Village Square Pizza

Find a location in the East Village, West Village, Upper East Side, Midtown, or Upper West Side.

📍 147 Avenue A, New York, NY

Delizia 92

A neighborhood staple on the UES since 1988. There’s a reason it’s stuck around for nearly four decades.

📍 1762 Second Avenue, New York, NY
