This LaRosa's outpost is the default choice when someone in Finneytown says they are ordering pizza.

Classic local favorite
Krimmer Italianette Pizzeria
North College Hill On West Galbraith Road • Old-School Square-Cut Parlor • Best For Loaded Toppings
A no-frills, old-school joint where square-cut pies come piled high with toppings and carry a devoted neighborhood following.
Just down Galbraith from Finneytown, Italianette feels like the kind of place that has been feeding the neighborhood for generations. The crust is sturdy but not thick, built to handle generous layers of cheese, sausage, and veggies without getting soggy. It is the spot to try a classic deluxe or all-meat pizza when you want something hearty and unapologetically old school.

Old-school carryout pick
Angilo's Pizza Mt. Healthy
Mt. Healthy On Hamilton Avenue • Thin-Crust Parlor With Hoagies • Best For Weeknight Carryout
A retro Cincinnati chain location turning out cracker-thin, edge-to-edge pizzas and messy, satisfying hoagies.
A short hop up Hamilton Avenue from Finneytown, Angilo's feels frozen in time in the best way. The crust is thin and crisp, the cheese browns right to the edge, and there is a pleasant hit of spice in the sauce and pepperoni. Pair a large pie with a couple of their hefty hoagies and you have an easy, affordable weeknight spread that tastes like pure Cincinnati nostalgia.

Best for craft toppings
Dewey's Pizza Kenwood
Kenwood Shopping Corridor • Modern Craft Pizzeria • Destination For Foodies
A polished northside favorite where creative topping combos and a good beer list reward the short drive from Finneytown.
When you want something beyond pepperoni and cheese, Dewey's is worth the trip over to Kenwood. The open kitchen, rotating seasonal specials, and well-balanced signature pies make it a step up from typical chain fare. It is a great choice before or after a shopping run, especially if you like pairing your pizza with a local draft and a big mixed greens salad.

Heaviest-hitting pies
Adriatico's New York Style Pizza
Clifton Near The Uc Campus • Hearty New York And Sicilian Slice Shop • Late-Night Classic
A campus legend known for massive, cheesy pies and thick Sicilian squares that can easily feed a hungry Finneytown crew.
Adriatico's sits a bit farther from Finneytown, but plenty of locals make the drive when they want a serious, shareable pizza. The New York style pies are big, foldable, and loaded with cheese, while the famed thick-crust Sicilian squares come out bubbling and almost decadently heavy. It is ideal for feeding a crowd after a game, a concert, or a night out in Clifton.
