Best overall pick
Padrone's Pizza of Ada
Ada – College District • Lively College‑Town Pizzeria • Local Favorite For Loaded Pies
Big, topping‑heavy pies and a friendly small‑town feel make this the first stop for many McGuffey locals heading to Ada.
Padrone's leans into generous toppings, gooey cheese, and crust that stays just crisp enough under the load, which is exactly what you want after a long day or a game at Ohio Northern. It’s casual, quick, and used to feeding big groups, so calling in a stack of large specialty pizzas is never a problem. If you’re only making one pizza run from McGuffey, this is the safest bet to please everyone at the table.

Best for variety
East of Chicago Pizza (Ada)
Ada – Main Drag • Regional Chain With Build‑Your‑Own Options • Best For Mixed Groups And Picky Eaters
East of Chicago in Ada offers multiple crusts, sauces, and toppings, making it easy to keep both traditional and adventurous pizza fans happy.
This is the place to go when your group can’t agree on what to order: deep‑dish, thin, and pan crusts sit alongside white sauce, barbecue bases, and all the usual toppings. Sides like breadsticks, wings, and salads fill out the spread, so you can turn a quick pickup into a full family meal. It’s close enough to McGuffey for an easy carry‑out run and reliable enough to put on regular rotation.

Best for late‑night delivery feel
Domino's Pizza – Kenton
Kenton – East Side • National Delivery Chain • Go‑To For Fast, Predictable Pizza

When convenience matters more than atmosphere, Domino's is the obvious choice from the Kenton side of the county. The menu covers everything from classic pepperoni to specialty pies, plus wings, sandwiches, and desserts for a one‑stop order. It’s especially handy for busy weeknights or game days when you want something familiar that will show up hot and on time.
04
Best for dine‑in nostalgia
Pizza Hut – Kenton
Kenton – Downtown Corridor • Family‑Friendly Pizza Restaurant • Best For Sit‑Down Family Meals
Pizza Hut in Kenton delivers that classic pan‑pizza comfort, with a family‑oriented dining room that’s made for lingering over a shared pie.
If you grew up on pan pizza and red‑roof Pizza Huts, the Kenton location hits all the right nostalgic notes. Thick, buttery crust and crowd‑pleasing toppings make it easy to split a couple of larges and keep everyone at the table satisfied. It’s a solid choice when you’d rather sit down for a meal than rush back home with a takeout box.

Best budget pick
Little Caesars Pizza – Kenton
Kenton – By The Highway • Grab‑And‑Go Carryout Spot • Best For Tight Budgets And Big Groups
Little Caesars in Kenton is all about value, with hot‑and‑ready pizzas that make last‑minute group meals painless.
For feeding a bunch of kids after practice or covering a casual movie night, it’s hard to beat the price and simplicity here. You can walk in, grab a couple of pepperoni or cheese pies without a wait, and still have room in the budget for crazy bread and sauce. It’s not fancy, but it’s exactly what you need when quantity and cost matter more than anything else.
