Best overall pick
Massey's Pizza Sports Bar & Wings
North Bridge Street, Chillicothe • Columbus-Style Sports-Bar Pizzeria • Best For Crisp Thin Crust
Crispy, square-cut pies and a full bar make Massey's the easy choice when you want a proper night out built around pizza.
About 15 minutes south of Andersonville, Massey's brings the classic Columbus-style thin crust to Ross County with edge-to-edge toppings and a good crunch. The dining room leans sports bar, with plenty of TVs and a beer list that fits game days or casual evenings. It’s the spot locals suggest when you want something a step up from the usual national chains without driving into a big city.
02
Most reliable chain favorite
Donatos Pizza
Central Bridge Street Strip, Chillicothe • Fast-Casual Thin-Crust Chain • Go-To For Consistent Delivery
Donatos is where people turn for consistently hot, thin-crust pizzas piled with pepperoni and easy online ordering.
Set along the busy Bridge Street corridor, Donatos is a workhorse option for Andersonville residents who want predictable, on-time delivery. The trademark thin crust and edge-to-edge toppings make it especially good for pepperoni fans and anyone feeding a crowd. It’s not fancy, but when you need a late-week shortcut for dinner, it rarely lets you down.
03
Best for families
Cardo's Pizza & Eatery
Western Chillicothe Neighborhood • Classic Hometown Pizza Parlor • Family Dinner Standby
Cardo's serves up thick, bready crusts and generous toppings in a laid-back dining room that’s easy with kids or teams.
Cardo’s has the feel of the small-town pizza joints many locals grew up with: roomy tables, friendly service, and pies built to share. The crust runs thicker and chewier than most chain spots, with plenty of cheese and old-school toppings that satisfy less adventurous eaters. It’s an easy pick after youth games, school events, or whenever you want a relaxed sit-down meal instead of another night of takeout.
04
Best for loaded toppings
Giovanni's Pizza
East Main Street, Chillicothe • Hearty Italian-American Takeout Shop • Value-Heavy Option
Giovanni's leans big on toppings and cheese, delivering filling pies that stretch a budget without feeling skimpy.
On the east side of Chillicothe, Giovanni’s is a favorite when you care more about a hefty, satisfying pizza than sleek décor. Pies come out well-loaded, with classic combos that feel more diner than designer, and the prices stay reasonable for families or roommates splitting the bill. Call-ahead carryout is the norm, making it a smart stop on the way back toward Andersonville.
05
Best for big group orders
Padrone's Pizza
South Bridge Street, Near Us‑35 • Delivery-Focused Local Chain • Carryout Hero For Parties
Padrone's turns out crowd-pleasing pies, wings, and sides that make feeding a full house surprisingly straightforward.
Just off US‑35 on the south side of Chillicothe, Padrone’s is set up for volume, which makes it a natural choice for parties, work lunches, or family gatherings. The menu covers the basics—custom pizzas, garlic bread, wings, and a few pastas—so everyone can find something without overthinking it. Order a couple of their larger pies and you can get back on the road toward Andersonville with dinner sorted.
