Old-school favorite
Chester’s Pizza
Sharonville • No-Frills Neighborhood Pizza Shop • Best For Carryout Classics
A Sharonville staple known for crispy-edged pies and a loyal following that stretches well beyond the neighborhood.
Chester’s is the kind of old-school pizzeria where the recipe and the regulars haven’t changed much in decades. The crust runs on the thinner side, the toppings are generous, and everything leans salty, cheesy, and satisfying in that classic Midwest way. Call ahead for takeout on busy nights and you’ll be in and out with a hot box in minutes.
03
Lockland standby
Angilo’s Pizza – Lockland
Lockland • Hole-In-The-Wall Pizzeria And Hoagie Shop • Budget-Friendly Option
A down-to-earth spot for thin, square-cut pies and hefty hoagies just across the tracks from Lincoln Heights.
Angilo’s in Lockland feels like a throwback, and that’s exactly its charm: simple pies, good prices, and portions that take care of lunch the next day. The square-cut pizzas are ideal for sharing, and the hoagies are a solid play if you’re feeding a hungry crew. It’s an easy weeknight pickup when you want something close, quick, and reliably satisfying.
04
Big-slice destination
Adriatico’s New York Style Pizza
Clifton Near Uc Campus • Hearty New York–Style Pizzeria • Best For Sharing With A Crowd
Famous for oversized, garlicky-crust pies that turn any pizza night into an event.
A short drive down I-75 brings you to Adriatico’s, a longtime Clifton favorite with serious student-town energy. The pizzas are hefty, with a chewy, flavorful crust and toppings piled on thicker than most chains dare. Order one of the massive specialty pies for game day or gatherings and you’ll feed a crowd without breaking the bank.
05
Gourmet pie night
Dewey’s Pizza – Kenwood
Kenwood / Kenwood Towne Centre • Modern Craft-Pizza Restaurant • Best For Craft Toppings And Draft Beer
A polished but relaxed spot for inventive pies, crisp salads, and a solid beer list after a run to Kenwood.
Dewey’s in Kenwood is a smart pick when you want something a step up from takeout without going fully white-tablecloth. The menu leans creative—think pesto, fig, or seasonal veggies alongside the usual pepperoni—and the salads are good enough to order on purpose. Pair a specialty pie with a local draft and you’ve got an easy date night or friends’ meetup within a quick drive of Lincoln Heights.
