Tubby's Pizza
South Marion, Off State Route 309 • Old-School Carryout Pizzeria • Local Favorite

Sansotta's Fresh Italian
Downtown Marion, Near Main Street • Family Italian Restaurant With Pizza • Best For Lingering Dinners
Hand-tossed pizzas served alongside pastas, salads, and wines in a relaxed dining room.
Sansotta’s is where you go when you want pizza but also want a proper meal out instead of a quick pickup.

Hearty, topping-loaded pies
Payne's Pizza & More
East Marion, Along Mount Vernon Avenue • Casual Pizza And Subs Joint • Best For Big Appetites
Big, filling pizzas and a wide menu of subs, wings, and comfort-food sides.
Payne’s leans into hearty, generously topped pizzas that feel built for sharing with a hungry crew. Crusts are sturdy enough to handle extra cheese, meat, and veggie combinations without getting soggy. With plenty of other options on the menu, it works well when your group can’t agree on just pizza and wants subs or wings in the mix.

Reliable chain option

Customizable crowd-pleaser
Marco's Pizza

Chewy, flavorful crust and lots of options for customizing pizzas, subs, and cheesy sides.
Marco’s is a go-to for weeknight takeout when you’re not looking for an outing, just a solid pizza. The dough has a bit more chew than most chains, and the specialty pies make it easy to order something different without overthinking it. If you’re driving back toward LaRue through Marion, it’s an easy stop to grab dinner on the way home.
