What a great, out of the way place to have some delicious pizza! We had never been, but so glad we stopped in! Tianna was our server and made suggestions as this was our first time here. We started out with a soda list that included a blonde root beer for me and a Shirley Temple soda for my wife. After we got them, my wife was not a fan of her soda, but Tianna got a replacement of a regular root beer that was a much better choice. The manager came by to make sure the new one was to our liking and also offered more suggestions the next time we came in. We shared a Abruzzese pizza which was delicious. Along with regular dough, they offer gluten free and cauliflower crusts. The inside of the restaurant is small but feels comfortable with booths. Tables and bar seating. We ended our meal with a chocolate budino which was the perfect ending. (Sorry, no pic as it was gone too fast!) In a world with too many chain restaurants with average menus, Blue Highway stands out as a road less taken and it truly did make all the difference! read more

in My first two Visits I have learned that service is friendly but not very quick. I was expecting a chance to get pizza by the slice but have to get the whole pizza. So I'm gonna have to go back to try the pizza. I did have a very pleasant salad. read more

We stopped by early in the day to ask if we can have the Patriots on the TV and they said show up and we'll put it on the TV. We came back later ordered a bruschetta which I didn't get a picture of and it was delicious and we ordered a fresh tomato bacon and garlic pizza and it ROCKED!. We also had a cannoli to share. Prices are good and the service is top-notch. If we lived in the area, we would come here at least once a week super super great food super atmosphere and the staff is phenomenal. they had a sangria special, but I didn't get one but all the people around me I could hear him say how great it was. If you're not sure change your mind come here eat pizza and have fun. read more

Blue Highway has wonderful food! We've been enjoying their wonderful food since the opened. They use great ingredients and it shows. They also treat their employees well, I'm told. read more

This is a great place for pizza. We got a build-your-own hand-tossed pizza. The crust was crispy, the sauce was very good, and the pepperoni were the nice and crispy minis. The service was great and we had no complaints. We will go there again when we are in the area. read more

As soon as you step into Blue Highway you get a vibe of a local hot spot but unlike some places they embrace the non-resident and regulars with the same cheerful attitude. We went for a build your own pizza and we were not disappointed. We ordered extra mushrooms, baked garlic and roasted peppers. Our pizza arrived with enough mushrooms to make these two mushroom addicts happy. Since we had been running all day we were starved and staved off our near demise with cheesy bread while we waited. Nothing disappointed.. read more

Amazing pizza, Sicilian style deep dish was not notch. A bit small inside (like 9/10 tables) but any wait is worth it. There is some outdoor seating but can't attest to how comfortable it is. read more

Nothing fancy here, nice casual place for lunch. If you can sit outside, do. Inside is dark and kinda dingy. I got a Caesar salad, super simple just a paper plate of romaine, shaved parm, croutons and somewhat watered down dressing for $15 which seemed kinda high. Friend got a pizza (meatball?), crust had a nice crunch on it. I'd say 3.5 stars so rounding up read more

No reason to come back over other places. We came here for lunch with family. Very small restaurant, not many tables, but cozy atmosphere. Our waitress was friendly and kind. However our food took ages to come out. The place wasn't packed and for just a few sandwiches and one small pizza and salad we waited about an hour. Not of this takes more than a few minutes to make. The prices are absurd. Very expensive for a pizza place and not worth the money. They serve your food on paper plates with plastic silverware. With how expensive the food is, that is ridiculous. The food was fine. Nothing great, nothing bad. Very high priced for what you get. The only thing making this 3 instead of 2 stars is because the food is fine. read more

Stopped in for a quick bite after visiting Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park and was pleasantly surprised. We ordered the hand-tossed Carne pizza, and it absolutely stole the show. The beer selection was fairly average, but the pizza more than made up for it -- flavorful, filling, and cooked perfectly. The side of jalapeños added the perfect kick and really brought everything together. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area. read more

Blue Highway Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Micanopy, Florida

Blue Highway is easily one of my favorite spots to grab a bite in the area. Their menu always offers something exciting, especially with their rotating featured items -- like the Pizza Maria (sliced balsamic-marinated lamb, herb-roasted tomatoes, scampi butter, Fontina, mozzarella, Parmesan rosemary aioli, and parsley) and the Roasted Beet & Carrot Salad (spring mix, roasted beets, roasted carrots, feta, and honey mustard dressing). The lamb on the Pizza Maria is packed with flavor and pairs beautifully with the other ingredients. I'm really hoping this one sticks around, because I'd happily order it again (and again). The Roasted Beet & Carrot Salad was fresh and delicious. I swapped the honey mustard dressing for balsamic vinaigrette, and the combination of the vinaigrette, roasted beets, and feta worked perfectly. No visit to Blue Highway is complete for me without finishing off with one of their cannolis -- the shells are always crisp, and the filling is some of the best I've had. Since I live nearby, I often order ahead and pick up from their convenient pizza window. My food is usually ready right on time, and even if there's a short wait, it's never too long. If you're dining in, they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor patio is covered and equipped with fans for comfort, while the cozy indoor space showcases local art, which adds to the welcoming atmosphere. Parking can get a little tight during peak hours, but much of the lot turnover is from pickup orders, so it usually moves pretty quickly. read more

Wow! This was our first stop after a 5 hour roadtrip, but I believe that even if we hadn't been starving after a long drive, this pizza would have been just as delicious regardless. We ordered the Abruzzese and the Funghi- "two of our best pies" according to our server- but I'm sure anything ordered from their menu would be top-notch and high-quality. Their crust was exceptionally crunchy and the flavors of each pizza were on point. Service was also really wonderful. Lately my husband and I have been striking out when it comes to dining out & trying to enjoy a nice meal, but this place is worth it! read more

I was riding home after a full day on the road down in the Leesburg area, and having just come through the Ocala National Forest I was getting pretty hungry. Home was up in Gainesville, but as I was passing through Micanopy I realized I hadn't been to Blue Highway Pizza in a long while, and it was time to fix that. The place really hasn't changed much over the years. It still has that "locals" feel to it that I love, and it is a place that, were it closer to home for me, I would be frequenting a lot more often. Home being on the North side of Gainesville makes it a bit of a trek for me unfortunately. I chose to sit at the bar this time around... no need to take up a four-top when it is just myself. Went through the menu after getting my water, and picked out a lovely looking meat lovers type of pizza. Really, for me though this place has all of the right things going for it... good food, a good vibe from the people working there, and just an all-around solid atmosphere to eat in. I need to go there more often, and will so long as my travels take me into the area at the right times. read more

Food was amazing ! Service was awesome ! The ambiance wasn't bad but not a lot of people !

Nice place to visit! The Pepperoni and mushroom Sicillian pizza was off the charts delicious .The crust was perfect with a deep dish thickness that was crispy more than spongy and the ingredients were top shelf fresh and delicious. The service was great and the atmosphere was pleasant Quirky outdoor restroom was cute read more

Blue Highway Pizzeria I'm from NJ/NY, so I'm very picky about pizza--and to make it more complicated, I can't eat cheese anymore. But Blue Highway absolutely nailed it. I had their veggie vegan pizza and it was hands down the BEST I've ever had. The crust was perfectly crisp, the toppings were super fresh, and the flavor was incredible. They clearly care about quality and it shows in every bite. If you're in the area, this place is a must stop. Whether you're vegan, dairy-free, or just a pizza lover, you'll be glad you came. PS: I wish I took a pic but we ate it so fast!!! read more

This place was recommended by a guy in an antique store. We decided to give it a try. I had an excellent salad and the other three in our group enjoyed the pizza. They all said it was excellent! The service was great. We will definitely be back. read more

The hand tossed pizza was fantastic! Also had a roast beef panini that was delicious. Highly recommended.

Love this place... definitely casual and may be off-putting to those not familiar with the rustic charm of Micanopy (for example the bathrooms). The dining room is small, so if you have a large (or even small) party, you might just have to wait. And that's ok. There's certainly a lot to look at if it's a nicer day. Pizza is great and service is friendly and attentive. Some that don't appreciate the rustic charm may enjoy their Tioga location instead. Great meal. read more

Although if u order a deep dish pizza u will be waiting 40ish minutes its well worth the wait and i always get the chicken wings which are always great read more

The service is always friendly and wonderful. The ambiance is very nice. The problem is the new way food is plated and served. We have always enjoyed everything from there; however, when we stopped today and ordered a favorite, the "humchetta" it was so disappointing to see the bruschetta and white bean hummus served in cardboard cups instead of the usual little serving bowls. It changed the flavor, the plate appeal, and the whole dining experience. Sadly, we won't be back. read more

Best pizza in the world the cheese Sicilian is the best by far, most pizza joints are skimpy on the cheese but not blue hwy the put a whole lot of it on their pizza and it's great. Their service is amazing very nice workers. The vibes of the place are out of this world so festive, love this pizza joint. read more

i usually don't like pizza without red sauce but the one from here was fire and the bruschetta was good too

The pizza was great. Service was great. Off the beaten path but well worth it. Even as leftovers it was yummy.

I love this place. Awesome food, everything on the menu is great. Staff is super friendly. I always sit at the bar enjoying the food and conversations. read more

I'm never disappointed at Blue Highway and our visit first thing Monday morning was no exception. We got there as they were opening but everyone was ready to provide an exceptional experience. We knew we wanted the Blue Highway salad and a pepperoni pizza. Sophie was the perfect blend of friendliness and professionalism. I am a pizza snob and I love all of the pizzas at Blue Highway. The manager also greeted us and made us feel welcomed. I eat here every chance I can. read more

Exquisite pizza, truly lives up to its reviews. The food is delicious. The place is very clean and the prices vvery reasonable. You can tell they care about quality and customer satisfaction. Definitely the best pizza in Gainesville!!! read more

Awesome pizza. Nice chill spot to get a high quality pizza. Service is attentive and friendly- we really like this place! Wish they were still in Ocala. read more

Absolute disaster of a trip to the Micanopy version of Blue Highway. It wasn't busy when we ordered and 35 minutes after ordering I was told that our Sicilian pizza wasn't quite ready yet because the thicker crust takes longer. Five minutes later the pizza comes out and the server said, "it's a bit crispy, is that ok?" The pizza was cremated. No apology, no "would you like a soda while you wait for a replacement?". Server never refilled our drinks either. The Tioga location seems to be more modern and with better service. read more

Shout out to Kendall for great service! This place was highly recommended and the advice is correct. Great salads, great pizza. Here's a tip: if you are going to order the Sicilian pizza, which takes longer to make, order by phone ahead of time before you get to the restaurant and let them know that you'll be at the restaurant in 30 minutes. That should time it right. Otherwise it's worth the wait, just plan on an appetizer if you arrive hungry. This is a popular spot, and the people support a quality restaurant. read more

If aren't paying attention as you are heading south on US 441 from Gainesville towards Ocala, you will miss a gem of a pizzeria! Located just off the highway is an unassuming yellow building with a blue canopy. Walk in and you are greeted by an old school bar. Don't let that scare you off though. The staff is amazing and ready to serve you. Blue Highway is a staple of my mom and dad's. Dad and I were in town for something and stopped when I was down to visit over Thanksgiving. The menu is simple but has quite a few choices. The Blue Highway salad is a popular option, which is one of their go to meals. My dad has even come up with his copycat version so they can enoy the salad anytime they want! We weren't there for salads that day. We were craving pizza. I ordered a small pepperoni pizza. Blue Highway's pizza is legendary for a reason. Hot, cheesy, with firm and crispy base. Too many pizzas are flimsy and the base of the pizza gets soggy which doesn't equal great leftovers. I had leftovers for sure. My dad opted for a small pepperoni pizza as well, so I had to keep an eye on my left overs in case he or mom tried abscond with them. Yes, the pizza is that good! If you are in the Gainesville area, Micanopy is just outside of the city limits and easy to get to. I highly recommend you give it a try if you are in town! read more
