Best overall pick
Capuano's Pizza House
Pataskala • Brick-Oven Italian Pizzeria • Local Favorite
Classic brick-oven pies and hearty Italian dishes make Capuano's the go-to pizza night choice near Beechwood Trails.
Just a short drive south into Pataskala, Capuano's is the kind of family-run spot people recommend without thinking twice. The crust has a slight chew with a crisp edge, toppings are generous, and the sauce leans savory rather than sweet. It’s equally solid for carryout on a busy evening or a sit-down meal when you want pizza plus pasta or a salad.

Classic Ohio-style pick
Massey's Pizza
Pataskala Broad Street Corridor • Thin-Crust Ohio-Style Pizzeria • Best For Game Nights
A longtime central Ohio name, Massey's brings cracker-thin crust and edge-to-edge toppings to the Pataskala side of Beechwood Trails.
Massey's is where you go when you want that classic Columbus-style experience: thin crust cut into squares, plenty of pepperoni curl, and cheese right to the edge. The Pataskala location is close enough for a quick pickup run from Beechwood Trails, especially on game days. Large pies and shareable sides make it easy to feed a crowd without overthinking the order.

Small-town Main Street gem
Plaza Pizza Johnstown
Downtown Johnstown • Old-School Takeout Pizzeria • Best For Carryout
A short drive north, Plaza Pizza in downtown Johnstown turns out consistently satisfying, no-frills pies that travel well back to Beechwood Trails.
Plaza Pizza feels like the classic small-town shop: simple menu, friendly counter service, and pizza that tastes exactly how you hope it will. The crust is sturdy enough to handle extra toppings, which makes their loaded specialty pies a smart choice for takeout. It’s an easy option when you’re already headed through Johnstown or want a change of pace from the Pataskala standbys.
04
Reliable chain favorite
Donatos Pizza Granville
Granville Broadway Area • Thin-Crust Regional Chain • Best For Big Groups
This nearby Donatos location serves the familiar thin-crust, edge-to-edge style that’s ideal for feeding a crowd from Beechwood Trails.
The Granville Donatos offers all the hits locals know: thin crust, lots of topping choices, and predictable quality from visit to visit. It’s convenient when you need several large pizzas for a team gathering, birthday, or last-minute get-together. Online ordering and clear combo deals take most of the decision-making out of pizza night.
05
Wood-fired destination
Elliot's Wood Fired Kitchen & Tap
New Albany Main Street • Wood-Fired Sit-Down Spot • Best Dine-In Experience
For a night out rather than just takeout, Elliot's offers blistered, wood-fired pies and a full tap list within an easy drive of Beechwood Trails.
Elliot's leans more restaurant than corner pizza shop, with a comfortable dining room and a menu that goes beyond pizza while still treating it as the main event. The wood-fired crust has a bit of char and chew, and seasonal topping combinations keep things interesting. It’s a good pick when you want to make pizza part of an evening out instead of eating around the kitchen island.
