Greensboro, North Carolina, is at no shortage of fantastic pizza places. Whether you’re looking for the perfect gameday pizza to share with your friends or you want a real oven-fired traditional pie, Greensboro has you covered. The next time your pizza craving calls, head to any of these excellent pizza places around town:
-
Sticks & Stones
The pies that come out of Sticks & Stones’ clay oven are dangerous. If you’re trying to limit your pizza intake, we suggest staying away from this restaurant, as its interesting selection will make you want to come back for more. If you’re feeling adventurous, try the Mockingbirdsing with walnut pesto, roasted chicken, fennel, and gorgonzola. The specialty pizza menu is filled with similarly curated options, but you can also build your own if you know exactly what you want. Start your pizza dinner off right with an order of the Silver Bullets sweet potato wedges with chili-tomato dipping sauce.
-
Cugino Forno
Cugino Forno is one of the Greensboro area’s highest-rated pizzerias, and for good reason. The traditional Italian pizzas this restaurant serves are made with real, fresh dough hand-crafted every morning and topped with imported Italian ingredients to give you one of the most authentic pizza experience you’ll find on this side of the Atlantic. For a true taste of the old country, order the Pizza Napoletana or the Margerita D.O.P. during your first visit.
-
NY Pizza Bar & Grill
When you just want a New York-style pizza to make a good night a great one, head to NY Pizza over on Battleground. Order a tried-and-true NY Favorite with fresh garlic, mozzarella, diced tomato, red onion, and rosemary, or get adventurous with the buffalo chicken pizza. If someone in your party isn’t feeling pizza, NY PIzza also offers great calzones, strombolis, wraps, and sandwiches.
-
Slices by Tony
If you’re trying to find a great deal on delicious pizza that will fill up your whole family, order your favorite from Slices by Tony near the UNC-Greensboro campus. You can order by the slice at this fun pizzeria or go all-in on a whole pie. Tony’s specialty options include everything from their Mona Lisa Pizza with goat cheese, eggplant, and zucchini to their Mac & Cheese Pizza. The menu here is massive, full of Sicilian-style, gluten-free, specialty, and build-your-own pizzas, as well as plenty of appetizers to choose from.

Brixx Wood Fired Pizza
Brixx is the perfect place to spend an hour or two with friends enjoying a pizza and a couple of craft beers. Go basic with the pepperoni-and-mushroom Americo or opt for the unforgettable Sweet Thai Chicken pizza with chicken tossed in sweet chili sauce, goat cheese, and roasted red peppers. The relaxed atmosphere Brixx offers makes it a great space to unwind after a long week.
These are just a few of the great pizza places you’ll find in our corner of North Carolina. Get experimental or go with a classic — finding the pizza that suits your mood in Greensboro is easy to do with so many options to choose from.
