A no-frills St. Paris staple turning out well-loaded pies that hit the spot on a weeknight.
Jim's Pizza Chalet is the place many St. Paris families have on speed dial when they want a straightforward, satisfying pie without leaving the village. Crusts lean toward the classic Ohio thin side, with a generous layer of cheese and toppings that feel more hometown than corporate. It’s an easy first choice when you want something reliable, quick, and comfortably familiar.

Set along US-36 just outside the village, Freddie's Pizzeria draws a steady mix of locals and passersby with its crowd-pleasing crust and generous toppings. It’s the kind of spot where a couple of large pepperoni-and-sausage pies can feed a team after a game without breaking the budget. If you’re willing to drive a few minutes out of town, this is an easy choice for feeding a hungry group.

Worth-the-drive pick
Sparky's Pizzeria
Urbana – Scioto Street Corridor • Classic Local Pizzeria • Worth-The-Drive Pick
Beloved Urbana institution known for its crisp-edge pies and lively, hometown atmosphere.
About 15 minutes from St. Paris, Sparky's Pizzeria in Urbana is the kind of place people recommend without thinking twice. The crust bakes up crisp around the edges, the cheese gets just the right amount of browning, and the topping combinations range from simple to fully loaded. If you’re willing to make a short drive for a more energetic dining room and a true local-pizza feel, this should be high on your list.

Best for thin-crust fans
Donatos Pizza
Urbana – East End • Ohio Thin-Crust Chain • Best For Game Nights
Cracker-thin, edge-to-edge pepperoni pies ideal for sharing during the big game.
The Urbana Donatos brings the Columbus-born chain’s signature ultra-thin, edge-to-edge style within easy reach of St. Paris.

Call ahead on busy nights, grab a couple of large pizzas, and you’re set for a living-room watch party or casual get-together.

Best delivery-heavy option
Marco's Pizza
Urbana – North Side • Delivery-Focused Chain Shop • Go-To Delivery Option
Dependable, sauce-forward pies with plenty of topping choices and late-evening delivery hours.
Marco's in Urbana is a practical pick when convenience matters just as much as the pizza itself. The crust has a soft chew, the sauce skews a bit more robust, and there are enough topping options to keep everyone at the table happy. It’s especially handy if you’re staying nearby and want an easy, no-surprises delivery dinner after a long day on the road or at the fields.
