Ordered online, went to pick up and doors were locked at 5pm, employees visibly inside but nobody came to the door.

yea, its ok, nothing too spectacular, but then again, it wasnt a hot pile either. So, if youve never been, its food fast assembly line prepped pizza, you can get anything (almost) on it and then you pay. i liked the beverage selection, not just coke, some local stuff too. very reasonable when it came to price, about 7 bucks for lunch, but i am, well not per se, still hungry, but something isnt satiated. i went with the lunch crowd, so i might go back based on popularity, but solo isnt a top priority. 6.1 if you are keeping track. read more

priority is given to online orders, walk in customers are supposed to wait until there is a break in continuous online orders. It can take over an hour to get a pizza. If this is your policy then it should be clearly indicated. Otherwise you should have some employees serving in-store customers. It is not normal that all ( four and more) employees are serving online orders snd refuse to serve in-store customers. I have not seen anything like that in any other location. read more

I have been a fan since they opened. Since COVID, I began using their excellent app to order online and pick-up. Despite inflationary price hikes, it is still a great value and vegan friendly. read more

As far as pizza in the Storrs area goes, this is by far the best. It's thin crust, and you truly get to customize your pizza to exactly how you'd like it. They cook it in a wood fired oven too, which is a definite plus. The sauce could probably be a little better, but overall there's not much to complain about. The ingredients are fresh and there's a ton of options to customize your pizza. I love the pesto drizzle - you can have it added on when the pizza is done cooking, and it is truly a game changer. This particular location has good service and I always enjoy my meal when I come here, so it's def a good pick when you're craving some thin crust pizza. read more

Blaze Pizza - Red vine pizza - Salad Near Me - Storrs, Connecticut

Its a college spot catering to the students so the selections not going to blow u away but it's pretty damn good and pretty speedy u say what u want they dress it up throw it in the brick oven within 3 to 5 minutes ur enjoying ur personal sized pizza or bread sticks I like it read more

TRIED TO order but I had a question first.... How many inches are their large pizzas.?? But some recording of a jackass on the phone doesn't even give you a chance of speaking to anyone. he ACTUALLY says you can be placed on hold but no one will ever answer your call. Un fricking believable. read more

I love this place. You can choose a signature pizza or build your own. For $8.15, you can get your own personal pizza with unlimited toppings. No need to pay surcharges for specialty items here; add artichokes, roasted red peppers, roasted garlic cloves, kalamata olives, and lots of other tasty veggies at no additional charge. Vegans and lactose intolerant folks, they carry shredded Daiya - it's in a covered container, and when I've ordered it, the staff member have always asked if I want them to change their gloves. They really do try to cater to all dietary needs/wants, and I believe they have gluten-free crust available for a small upcharge. While the concept is similar to a Moe's or Chipotle, Blaze's execution is smoother and more professional. They take your name down at the beginning of your order and will use it when referring to you. None of the awkward "Are they talking to me? Is that my taco?" here! Lines can be long when UConn's in session. read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Storrs, Connecticut

We just tried blaze pizza in Storrs for the first time. We paid over $40 for 2 " large " pizzas. They were gross. My husband had a BONE on his piece! The toppings were ordered but barely there. I always thought that there was no such thing as bad pizza- I was wrong. Better off with frozen read more

I wanted to like this place. They made the order wrong and offered no apology, instead they gave us attitude. So it was not fast at all. Pizza here was so boring. We were disappointed. read more

I'm not even that big of a pizza fan but I loveeeee Blaze! You get to customize your pizza and get unlimited toppings. No side eyes when you ask for extra (I'm looking at you chipotle ) and no extra cost!! I think they've recently slightly increased their price but at long as it stays under $10, I'm good The spicy red saucy, ovalini cheese, and grilled chicken are to die for! Now that the semester is over, the wait is incredibly shorter. I live in Hartford but it's so worth the drive read more

This is a decent little stop for grub. It is relatively fast and you will get pizza. However, it always tends to be filled with rowdy college kids, especially at the ungodly hours (dare I say after midnight). Occasionally, this busyness can affect my orders and on more than one occasion my name has been misspelled, or multiple toppings were forgotten... It can be disappointing. But the taste is satisfying enough by my buds of the taste variety! - Dee read more

Pizza is very good, fresh and many options price range very reasonable for the quality

First stop at Mansfield before anything else including friends at UConn? Blazeeee. Yes pizza over friends. Now think Subway, but instead sandwiches...Pizza. Now think Subway's $5 foot longs...but instead $8 14inch custom made to your liking pizzas. Say what!!? Came in for the grand opening when the custom pizzas were free. It was hectic that day and the workers were stressed out, lined up everywhere like little pizza minions but were still very friendly and patient with us, especially me. You will see why. Pizza crust was pre-made and shapen on a pan. All it needed was toppings. I asked for a lot of toppings 1 sauce, 1 cheese, 1 meat, ALMOST ALL of their ~15 veggie toppings (due to long fast moving line) and I was already drooling on the sneeze guard over my masterpiece. My pizza was placed into the oven and in 180 seconds it was done. They identified me as the owner and then they sliced up into 8 pieces, drizzled pesto at my request, boxed it up and sent me on my merry way. Pizza slices were sagging from my overload of toppings but I was happy with the flavors I was getting from the toppings. I recommend for those who are not shy with pizza toppings to get as much as you can. More bang for your buck. Mind I remind you $8 $8 $8 for a pizza!!! This pizza was just as good as one you get at a higher end restaurant --which might not let you custom make it AND still charge you more; 14 inches is sometimes a medium at restaurants and charge you $13 or so bucks. Did I mention? Blaze is completely college budget friendly and pizza is like an 8th wonder of the world to college students? Grateful for this addition to the campus. read more

Blaze Pizza was everything I expected and more - I'm glad I don't live near one, because if I did, I would probably come here every day!! While there are plenty of options for dinner around UConn, Blaze satisfies three crucial requirements for a pizza chain in a college town. First of all, it's speedy. The line moves pretty quickly, since the workers are efficient in piling on the ingredients. Once the pizza is in the oven, it takes around 5 minutes to be toasted into crisp perfection. Second, the varieties are endless. I ordered the Green Stripe and my boyfriend ordered the Meat Lover - and hundreds of combinations you can customize yourself. For my Green Stripe pizza, I requested a spicy tomato base, and along with the already-included toppings, I chose red opinion, bell peppers, jalapeño, spinach, and pineapple. That's the beauty of Blaze - extra toppings are zero charge, so feel free to mix and match to your heart's content! The spicy tomato sauce was not spicy at all, a little tangy. My boyfriend's Meat Lover's pizza had a nice smoky essence to it. Finally, it definitely feels healthier and "cleaner" than your average take-out pizza. There are plenty of vegetable toppings, even if your chosen pizza doesn't come with many vegetables. My Green Stripe pizza came with a heaping mound of arugula on top and the most delectable pesto dressing that gave it a wonderful aroma. The crust is quite thin, so you don't feel as guilty inhaling a whole pizza yourself :) We came on a Friday night at around 5:30, and at that point the restaurant was probably half-filled. Once we finished eating, however, the line had grown really long and people were having a hard time finding places to sit! So I absolutely recommend coming earlier - you won't regret it! read more

This place is the bomb! Perfect for college students and young people, located in the booming area of UConn storrs. This one has been gaining a lot of traction since its opening. What: Its essentially subway for pizza. Wait in the line until you're at the counter and then go down walk down the line while choosing sauces, meats, toppings, pay. Grab your pizza and sit down or get it to go. Price: very affordable. Customized pizza with unlimited toppings is around $8. Signature pre-designed pizzas are a dollar cheaper. Go for the customized one! Just go nuts with the toppings! What can go wrong? If it doesn't taste good, well you "made" it! I have been here 2-3 times and have loved all my creations each time. Cool info: they also have an app. Sometimes there may be promo codes like BOGO ($8 for two pizzas!) or free drink! Only concern is sometimes line would be long if I'm there at a bad time. And the line doesn't necessary move fast. Did you know? They bake the number plate with the pizza. Interesting huh. read more

My first time at a Blaze. I have to say it was more of a starter flame than a blaze. While the basic concept is good, a build your own pizza a la chipotle, the lack of a choice of dough really dampens the enthusiasm. There's absolutely no reason they can't have a whole wheat dough! Every other similar concept has a whole wheat and usually a gluten free option. The finished product was decent, certainly worth the $8 or so paid and perfect for the college crowd it serves in this location. It took way too long for them to serve the pizza and it wasn't as hot as it should've been. read more

A wee bit pricy, but delicious and quick service. I love that there's GF options. Lots of options as well as the option to make your own.

Food was great. Had it delivered was on time and ordered online. I recommend this place

You really can't go wrong with $8 make your own pizzas. The pizza crust is made right in front of you on a pan. The customer service is tremendous. They take down your name and refer to your name the whole way through, even if it is a different person down the line. Their first question is if you have been to blaze before, if not, they walk you through the entire process.. no matter how long the line is! It is a great concept. My first time at blaze I was a rookie and got a signature pizza, red vine pizza, which don't get me wrong, was delicious, but I now know to make my own pizza for just $7.95!!! There is different sauces you can choose from, different cheeses, toppings, meats etc ... you can build the craziest type of pizza to your liking. The toppings are unlimited for only $7.95!!!! I have also gotten the greek salad, which was very delicious. The pizza was great. No complaints here. A WHOLE PIZZA FOR $8!! I could only eat half the pizza...perfect for college students, am I right? and it is open late night! I also recommend the smores treats... very good. Overall, great experiences, great customer service, and VERY affordable. Plan on coming back! read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Storrs, Connecticut

Always love going here when I'm at UConn! The reward system is pretty simple and has good options to redeem when you earn enough flames (which happens pretty quickly when school is in session.) You can never go wrong with the BYO -- so many options and all delicious combinations. The workers are always super friendly and accommodating to requests, whether it's for allergies or adding all of the toppings. read more

I don't understand this place. Or why it is popular. I mean, it's inexpensive. But that's the end of upside. I had a meeting here. It was loud and offered a poor venue for conversing with one another. Both pizzas were charred. The non-burnt parts tasted like frozen pizzas. How does this place have so many five star ratings? It's a mystery. read more

This is a fun place to go. We almost always get take out because of the noise level and the crowd when UConn is in session. For a very reasonable price, you get to build your own personal pizza with choice of dozens of toppings. The staff is very friendly and responsive. You can order a "standard" pizza, but it's a lot more fun to customize. ("Could you please put some extra gorgonzola on that? Maybe some bannana peppers and roasted garlic.") I'm usually not a fan of pizza with chicken, but their BBQ chicken gorgonzola is a great place to start creating. Try it and have fun! read more

Pizza is close to a religion here in New England. People get very very territorial about their chosen pizza joint, almost universally a hyper local establishment. So when we heard a California based pizza place was coming to UConn, eyes rolled. What do Californians know about pizza? Based on Blaze, they know a lot. Blaze is amazing pizza. You can order a set pie, or totally customize one. We had the gluten free crust (I know, but it was DELICIOUS- thin and chewy with a slight twang) with the spicy red sauce (perfectly spiced- not too much, not too little) with Italian sausage, red onions and roasted red peppers. This pizza was ready lightning fast, a nice char on the crust, and BURSTING with flavors. And the price is super reasonable. Particularly given the quality of ingredients. read more

I love Blaze, never had a bad experience here. Line is usually long but it moves fast, I go back and forth between a make your own with lots of cheese, bacon and olives, and their white top pizza. Their blood orange lemonade is sooooooo good, usually this is the one drink that runs so if you're lucky enough to have a full container when you visit take advantage! Food is always fresh and I love not having to share my pizza (pizzas are personal sized). Go during the summer and the line is shorter due to school break! read more

One of the girls accused me of inebriating even though I was not. She created a scene and started screaming at everyone in the whole entire line. one of the other employees handed me a "free 11 inch pizza" coupon saying he knew that she overreacted and that she knew she was loud usually. I cannot believe she interacted like that and I am severely disrespected by Blaze Pziza right now. read more

Love the build your own pizza option that you get to pick all the toppings for your pizza. I am all about everything grabbing the pesto sauce with the white cream sauce drizzled on the pizza and pesto on the crust. I'll get the fresh mozzarella with ricotta. I usually get the Italian sausage, bacon and other meats before finally topping it off with spinach, roasted garlic and onions. The wait isn't that bad during the rush hours as they are quick to get people served and the pizzas in the oven. We usually grab a seat to enjoy our warm and crunchy pizza before exploring more of the Storrs area. read more

I don't know if Blaze was the first company to invent the idea of a subway style pizza place but it is GENIUS and DELICIOUS. I'll travel the 30 minutes just to get pizza from here although when I was a student at UCONN, this was easy to get to. I still go here whenever I'm craving pizza, you just cannot go wrong!!! read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Storrs, Connecticut

Very informative & accommodating for a dairy allergy in the family. Glove change, utensil change, even brought out fresh sauce from the back just in case there was cross-contamination in the container already on the line. With their wide open setting, we were able to see them do the things other establishments promise but don't follow through on. Great Job... read more

Great pizza even with cauliflower crust. Great staff. Using credit card always gives trouble but takes Apple Pay. Toppings are gracious. Drinks are usually not cold enough as they do need to improve drink stocking or the refrigeration for the drinks. Parking is an issue but if you can parallel park you will be fine. Overall dang awesome option for healthy pizza eating read more

Really good food! Only thing is that the place is usually packed (at least the 3 times i've been there). The wait in line can take up to 15-20 minutes (on a bad day), but once your up at the front, it goes by very fast and your pizza is made so quickly. I love how you watch your pizza being made so you know that it is truly exactly what you asked for. Delicious food for a great price. read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Storrs, Connecticut

Another one of those fast "we'll make your food to your customized specs while you watch" places a la Subway or Chipotle, but with pizza. I like it because I can get my daughter a plain cheese pizza and get myself something more interesting, and we can both be eating within 7 minutes. The crust is on the thin side, which is better for my health. And both the amount and quality of their offered toppings are decent--try the spicy sauce. If you don't want to create your own, they've got a menu with a few pre-designed pizzas to select from, and tweak if you'd like. They have beer (and wine, I think) for on site consumption, and a few lemonade and agua fresca selections. The only negative I can see is that it can get crowded, with a line wrapping around the room. You can order a pizza ahead of time to try to beat the line, but they won't put it into the oven until you arrive. You might as well just go in; the line usually moves pretty fast. Also it can be noisy, but that's what you get from a place 3 minutes from a university, right? read more

My friends brought me here last week and I loved the whole concept of a pizza bar picking my toppings. I got mushrooms and zucchini with vegan cheese (which surprisingly was really good). The service was great and the whole place was clean. I will definitely be back! read more

Blaze Pizza - Salad Near Me - Storrs, Connecticut

Best personal pan pizza in the area. You get to make your own pizza from the crust to the toppings. They even have gluten free crust... amazing! Remember to get the pesto sauce drizzle on your pizza. It was right across from where I was working. I only had 30 minutes for lunch so I didn't think I would have time, but the pizza came ou t really quick. I didn't think I could eat the whole thing but I ended up eating easy and only leaving one slice. Sooooo good. read more

Worst experience ever. We came in at about 11:30 and the sauce and topping bins were extremely messy and spilling over into each other. They had few protein options and were completely out of chicken and did not apologize or offer me another option. Then they failed to mention that the 2-topping deal only came with fountain drinks and charged me for my Pellegrino without telling me. Horrible experience and management should be ashamed of themselves. read more

If I can give this place NO stars I would. I will NOT support the Blaze franchise after my experience. My friends and I decided to go to Blaze for some pizza which we clearly found out was a mistake. Not only was the pizza poorly made the staff racial profiled my friends. While I was getting ready to pay for me and my friend's pizza, Alina, proceeded to tell me that I couldn't pay for my friends "Veg Out" pizza. I was confused about why because we were just having a good time in the facility. There was a line close to the door and I was shocked that she was actually turning down business. She proceeded to tell me that it was "because I saw her juuling." As I told my friend to tell her why she was being denied Alina insisted that it was because she was juuling. She was not juuling, she was just holding the juul like every other college person. We proceeded to ask a question on why the sale was being denied. Alina walked out of the store and got the cops involved and had two police officers and one state trooper come into the store. We were beyond belief. We continued to explain to the cops what happened and they too did not understand what grounds she stood on to deny the sale. The cops asked Alina to accept the payment for the pizza and she told them that "it was already in the trash." The cops told her to make my friend a new pizza because she did not do anything wrong. Another coworker said that she did not see anything happen. This was completely out of context and did not need police supervision. After about 1/2 hour we got the pizza. Alina never apologized for her wrongdoing. This was completely out of hand. I will never support Blaze Pizza again. She had NO authority to pull what she did. I am very disappointed and hope this is resolved. I cannot believe the process my friend needed to go through to get a pizza that she was willing to pay for. Embarrassing her in front a packed restaurant is completely unacceptable and getting the cops involved speaks highly to her character. The cops (yes, multiple cops) were on our side and we eventually got our pizza that wasn't even that good. read more

Absolutely terrible customer service. Found a blonde hair in my pizza that was obviously not mine and staff would not do anything to resolve it or even make me a new pizza. Don't come here if your looking for sanitary conditions and a good pizza. This place sucks!!!! read more

This is my favorite pizza at the moment. Ordering is simple: one size, three price options (1-topping, 2-topping, or build-your-own). The ingredients are top quality, and baking takes only a couple minutes. They're perfectly sized. It's also the only pizza place around that I know of with a solid vegan option. My favorite pie is the BBQ chicken pizza, add bacon, hold the banana peppers, with garlic pesto brushed onto the crust edge. My wife builds her own with vegan cheese and lots of veggies - she absolutely loves it! Only downside to this location is that it can be cold when dining in, so bring a jacket. I suspect they have to keep the fans running on high to offset the open oven behind the counter. read more
