01
Best overall pick
Eagles Pizza
New Albany Village Center • Old-School Family Pizzeria • Classic Local Favorite
A New Albany institution turning out hearty, no-nonsense pies in the heart of the village.
Eagles Pizza is the kind of place where locals grew up on Friday-night pies and still come back with their own kids. The crust leans classic Midwest—sturdy, a little chewy, and built to handle generous toppings. It’s especially good for casual family dinners or big carryout orders when you want comfortingly familiar pizza done right.
02
Most playful atmosphere
Mellow Mushroom
Market Street District • Funky Craft-Pizza Bar • Best For Groups And Beer Lovers
Colorful, quirky, and serious about stone-baked pizzas with creative topping combos.
Mellow Mushroom brings a lively, almost retro vibe to Market Street, with murals, a full bar, and a menu built around shareable pies. The dough has a distinctly chewy, flavorful crust that stands up to toppings like pesto, feta, and specialty sausage. It’s a strong choice when you want pizza plus a good beer list and room for a group to settle in.
03
Best food-hall slice
Zero's Pizza
Central College Corridor • Modern Food-Hall Slice Counter • Great For Quick Slices And Variety
A punchy, New York–inspired slice shop tucked inside a busy local food hall.
Zero's Pizza operates out of Bubbly Food Hall, making it easy to pair your slice with drinks or sides from neighboring vendors. The slices are bold and flavorful, with a thinner, foldable crust and toppings that skew a little more adventurous than the old standbys. It’s ideal for a quick lunch, an informal date night, or mixed groups who all want something different.
04
Best for Detroit-style cravings
Jet's Pizza
Fodor Road Retail Strip • Carryout And Delivery Chain • Top Pick For Fast Delivery Night
Reliable Detroit-style squares with crispy edges and plenty of cheese, ready for takeout or delivery.
Jet's on Fodor Road is a go-to when you want that thick, airy crust and caramelized cheese edge you only get from a proper Detroit-style pan. The menu runs from classic pepperoni to customizable deep-dish builds, plus wings and subs for a full game-day spread. It’s all about convenience and consistency, especially if you’re feeding a crowd without leaving the house.
05
Best for specialty pies
Brenz Pizza Co.
Hampsted Village Area • Casual Gourmet Pizzeria • Best For Inventive Specialty Pies
Thoughtful, topping-forward pizzas with a from-scratch feel and plenty of build-your-own options.
Brenz Pizza Co. caters to diners who like their pizza a bit more chef-driven, with sauces, cheeses, and toppings that go beyond the basics. You’ll find white pies, chicken-centric combinations, and plenty of fresh vegetables that still feel indulgent rather than overly ‘healthy.’ It’s a smart pick when you want something a little more interesting than a standard pepperoni but still crave that familiar pizza-night comfort.
