We moved to Smith Center a little over a year ago after having lived in the Kansas City area for…read moreyears. One of the things we love about our small town is the quaint atmosphere and the friendliness of the residents. The first time we walked into Center Fire Pizza, Mark and Susan were behind the counter and treated us like we were loyal customers. Small town "diners" don't typically have the fancy food, but looking at the board with the list of pizzas, it was obvious this wasn't a typical small town pizza place. Along with the traditional favorites, they also offer Margherita pizza, chicken/artichoke/pesto pizza among others, to surprise the sleepy small town taste buds like ours! While we waited for our order, Mark spent time telling us their story and talked about the brick oven. It was a TREAT to know their background and how they decided to open the doors on Main Street. The REAL treat came when we tasted Susan's salads and Mark's pizza, however. The salad is made to order and is fresh. Susan doesn't use iceberg. Her house salad is full of the good stuff. And, oh, the pizza. The dough is light and the crust crisps perfectly. Mark doesn't skimp on the toppings and it is oven to table, delivered by the creator himself. We HIGHLY recommend Center Fire Pizza. Coming from a larger metropolitan area, we would rank it as some of the best pizza we have ever had. And don't miss out on getting to know the owners and their story. That's part of the experience and one not to miss.

They do make a variety of bakery items that all looked yummy. The Chocolate chip cookies were good and fresh, ate those on the spot. Along with a sourdough sandwich bread baked two hours ago that was so soft and fresh. It had great consistency and was perfect to tear off a piece and eat it plain. It was a nice town to stop and walk to stretch your legs while road tripping.

It's almost like cartoon pizza the way it stretches when you pull a slice, but the best thing about it is how well it's bonded to everything else. It doesn't slide off leaving you with a sad floppy piece of dough. Everything we tried was just amazing. The cheese sticks, the strawberry kolaches and cinnamon rolls, I don't know how they do it but they do everything incredibly right. The service was also very friendly and welcoming. We were helped by Justin who stood out because he was so helpful and kind at helping us decide. Honestly, this place is definitely worth the trip and I know we'll be going again.

When we went inside and saw that they sold food, we asked them if they had a menu and they pointed to a white board. Me and my son wanted pizza, the daughter wanted a cheeseburger and my wife wanted the chicken fried steak meal. We ordered and paid then waited out on the patio. As we waited I was thinking "Great, we just paid gourmet pizza prices for some frozen Totino's cardboard pizza." I was so wrong! The pizzas here are delicious, homemade and huge. The boy and I ended up taking half of the pizza home with us, as did my wife with her chicken fried steak that she said was some of the best she ever had. Lovewell Marina and Grill is a neat hidden gem that's a must if you're at Lovewell State Park.
