Shame on me for not reviewing this place the first time around! Perhaps it was because it was just for an app and not the spectacular pizza! Hubby and I sat at the bar and the kind bartender was patient with us out-of-staters as we navigated the menu. After ordering a red sauce pepperoni and onion pizza, we reveled in the charm of this local staple. Outdoor seating and take out were available, and people started to fill the space as normal dinner hours rolled around. When the pizza came out and we dove in, I was immediately struck by seeing all of the herbs sprinkled on TOP of the pizza, and (this is a compliment) when I tasted the crust, I was transported to a nostalgic taste of the Pizza Hut bread sticks of the 80's...you know...when they came with the personal pan pizza you had to READ for. SO. GOOD. read more

My friend and I got the meat lovers pizza for takeout and it was so good! It had sausage, pepperoni, and ground beef on it and I liked the thick crust. The guy was really nice. You can also dine in. Yummy pizza! read more

Crozet Pizza is consistently better than the Buddhist Bar location. It's disappointing that they too don't have garlic knots. The pizza dough is light and crispy, with lots of cheese, and flavorful sauce. The mozzarella sticks were a bit carnival-tasting, in the sense that they have that fried hard exterior, which also tasted very oily. The spot itself is a bit small with limited seating. Wish they had significant outdoor space but the food quality is definitely worth it. They do appear to be quite busy often as online ordering and even calling in can be a limiting often. read more

Not noticeable in the pics but they DO have patio seating out back that allows dogs. Pizza was really good. If you're familiar with Dave Portnoy pizza ratings, I'd give it a 7.1 and my husband gave it a 6.8. They do have an option to get it well done, it doesn't necessarily need that unless you like it really crispy, if so I'd suggest ordering well done. read more

Came here after visiting a winery in the area. This town doesn't have too many places to sit down and eat so I thought we would give it a try! It was middle of day on the weekend and this place was quite busy!! Bar was full of locals. Casual kinda restaurant. I remember hearing that this is the "best pizza in the world", which is a pretty crazy statement in general, but I came in with an open mind. I got a pie to split with partner. Half "the special" half "no sprout about it", and i would say both were pretty average. Pizza was good for someone hungry after a day of hiking or drinking at a winery on an empty stomach. But definitely won't make a trip for the food here. read more

Crozet Pizza - Half "No Sprout about it" and half "the special" - Pizza Near Me - Crozet, Virginia

3.6 stars! You people are stupid! This is some of the best pizza I have ever ate. The crust is a 10, toppings are perfect not too much and the exact amount of cheese I like so it doesn't destroy your stomach but is still cheesey. The atmosphere is amazing! Rock and roll playing! Family and kids freindly. When I saw the picture of J Rod on the wall I knew I had found a slice of Heaven. I would rather eat Crozet Pizza than Michelles in Naples. There I said it....3.6 stars really? Crazy people. read more

We have eaten here the last few times we have been in the area & have not been disappointed at all. Good food, but the pizza is outstanding. Will continue to be our first food stop from here on. read more

Great pizza. TV wasn't working so couldn't watch the game (March Madness). Service was good.

We enjoyed really good gluten-free pizza at this neighborhood gem. I don't know if I would agree with the "world's best" claim, but it was delicious. They also had a great selection of salads and beverages. I would stop in again the next time I'm in the area. read more

If you're looking for a great local pizza spot, Crozet Pizza is definitely worth checking out! They offer an impressive variety of pizzas, catering to all tastes from hearty meat lovers' options to flavorful vegetarian choices. Plus, they have gluten-free crusts, so everyone can enjoy a slice. One standout for me was their Salad Pizza -- a unique twist where you get any of their fresh salads placed on top of their perfectly made pizza crust. It's a refreshing and delicious choice. I also tried their Free Bird Calzone, which was a real treat. The chicken, peppers, and cheese were wrapped up in a homemade crust that had just the right thickness--not too heavy, like some calzones can be. The balance of flavors was spot on, and the crust was perfectly crispy. A great local pizza option to grab between winery and brewery visits or to go between hikes! The service was quick and it was a solid casual pizza joint vibe, straight forward with plastic menus and wooden booths plus a nice bar with football playing. read more

Came here for the Buffalo Bills Game tonight and the back bar is know to be a bills bar as soon as I walked in I could tell. Arrived and walked to the back bar and as soon as I sat down a guy grabbed up all the remotes, I assumed the was a manager or owner, come to find out he was a customer like me. He also brought is own Marshall boom box blue tooth speaker. That he started playing prior to the game. It was so loud you couldn't talk to the person next to you. Once the game started he controlled the TVs and his speaker when half time came on you couldn't even hear the commentary and every commercial it was a load sound blasting your ear drums. I love Crozet Pizza and the bills however I'm not sure I'll be back to watch a game here. food was great as was the service. read more

We visited this past Saturday. Note: The hours on Yelp do not match with what's on the door. Yelp says 11:30am open time, but in fact they don't open now till 12:00pm. We got there right when they opened and the place filled up quickly after we were seated. The place has charm. Service was good. This is definitely a local favorite based on the folks that rolled in after us. Lots of young families. The pizzas are really good, but pricey. A couple can safely split one pizza. We made the mistake of ordering two. Two pizzas and two beers (with tax and tip) put us at 75 bucks, which is on the high side. Next time we will split one. read more

Terrible service. Parents food brought 40 minutes before the kids. It was cold. Just bad.

Great pizza and speedy service. We were in the area on Saturday and stopped in midday (between lunch and dinner). Ordered 2 large pizzas knowing we'd have leftovers between the 3 of us. First pizza was out in maybe 15 minutes and second one less than 10 minutes after that. Both were plenty hot with good ingredients and very flavorful. Will definitely be back for more of their delicious pizzas. read more

I've been here several times, although this latest one was simply for take out. But I'll give this the highest praise I can: I brought my native NYC parents here, and they thought the pizza was legit. You can't get any better than that. Although patrons won't likely get a sit down experience for a while, I can attest that those were good. The only drawback is they were always busy! But hey- that also means they are good, right? read more

I went I payed $55.00 for a burger and fries and 3 beers. The beer is way overpriced. I could go to about any other restaurant and saved around $15.00 less. You got me. If you don't want people to drink then don't have a bar. I am done with Crozet Pizza! read more

Overpriced and lackluster pizza. I'm sad that Crozet Pizza did not hold up to my fond memories of it from when I lived in the area. The two of us each ordered one 12" pie- a Pacifica and a Feisty Italian. The positive is that the crust is still wonderfully crisp on the bottom yet still has that fluffy texture on the inside. The downside was that the red sauce was completely tasteless, and the cheese wasn't much better. The toppings on the Pacifica did not add flavor to the pizza. I was bummed that our waitress entered a Special instead of a Feisty Italian into the computer, so when the pizzas were brought out, the incorrect pizza had to be taken back and was 15 minutes before the correct one came back. I shared my pizza with my friend in the meantime, but he essentially watched me eat mine and then vice versa. When I got the bill I realized that the prices on their website are outdated- I paid $23 for the Pacifica (website says $20 as of 10/22/22) and $24 for the "Special". TLDR: $23 for a 12" mediocre pizza and below average service. Ouch. read more

Damn it. It's like they don't even try anymore. It's been a while since the Mrs. said "sure" when I suggest dinner here. She tossed in the towel shortly after COVID. Everyone struggled then, I get it, but it's been over four years now. So whenever the opportunity arises to go by myself, I jump at it. Not anymore. I've been a loyal fan since the early days, taking visitors and uninitiated locals since the early 90's, before iPhones, Facebook, or the fatal expansions. The 'best pizza in the world' review by National Geographic still carries weight with me. And yet, I left disappointed, once again. Basically, my small pepperoni pie was cheese on a tortilla. No crusty bubbles, too much cheese, and an undercarriage that was a soggy mess. I'm sorry, but a frozen DiGiorno's at Teeter will bring twice the joy at half the price. But, if you insist on a fresh pie, try Sal's one block down the road. It's old school, less expensive and always consistent read more

Crozet Pizza - You can tell immediately it was going to disappoint - Pizza Near Me - Crozet, Virginia

Visited the area for the day on 2/16 with my husband. This was our starting point because of our affinity for a REALLY good pizza. I've read multiple accolades for Crozet Pizza in food and wine magazine and my interest was piqued. Unassuming in a mini "strip mall" made of old plank wood, you'd just as soon drive by as stop. But the menu of specialty pizzas and locally sourced libations should make you not only stop, but pull up the emergency brake! The interior is all wood: boarded walls, floors and furniture all have a rich chestnut finish. The place looked immaculate; the restrooms were well stocked and clean. The furniture looked well maintained: no damages to the wood were visible and nothing squeaked. The seats are not padded so I don't know how long I could linger. There is also no wine list despite being in one of the best vinicultural areas in Virginia. But those were my only "complaints" if you could even call it that. You are seated and immediately given menus, thick cardboard plates and silverware. Drinks are served in plastic disposable cups. I presume this cuts down on staffing a dishwasher and broken dishes; I just hope things are recycled as much as possible! Their "house wine" is whiskey (they even state that on their menu-see pic) and they have a beautiful selection. They also offer several local beers that many folks seemed to be enjoying. We were hitting a couple wineries so we did not partake in alcohol this time. My husband is a HUGE fan of tea and he loved their fresh brew of unsweetened tea: strong but not over brewed. Lauren was our server today and she was warm, attentive and friendly without being intrusive. Drinks stayed full and we wanted for nothing. She is a keeper!! We wanted the soft pretzel sticks and beer cheese to start but were told they were being taken off the menu along with the jalapeño popper. Bummer. We found this quite strange despite the "Crozet Pourhouse" extension next door. We ordered the special pizza of the day "Great Balls of Fire": homemade hand tossed crust with house tomato sauce layered with shredded mozzarella and sliced buffalo mozzarella, topped with thinly sliced meatballs, julienned red peppers and a generous topping of basil chiffonade. I don't care for peppers so we asked for them to only be on half the pie. The kitchen complied perfectly! First bite was crazy hot, melty, meaty and fantastic. The pizza was heavy with toppings but had the perfect thin crust (think NJ/NY style) with crisp edges and just the right amount of char (they "warn" you on the menu that char could occur because of their cooking method: bring it on! I could only handle two slices; my husband ate three and the rest were boxed and taken home. The most delicious souvenir! It was a long drive for us but the scenery and pizza were SO worth it! We even told Lauren that we're are NJ natives but have been living in VA for over twenty years. We are devout pizza connoisseurs and Thai was the BEST pizza we've EVER had in the Commonwealth! Lauren seemed genuinely pleased and even bragged a bit about the accolade: National Geographic named Crozet Pizza best in the nation and Food Network has visited (I think I saw a pizza on the menu named for the network!) Summary: Crozet Pizza is a MUST STOP AND EAT when you're near C'ville. Wineries and breweries abound! We just told some friends of ours visiting from Virginia Beach last night just how fantastic this place is; we are now planning a camping trip centered on the pies! Please go, enjoy and tip well. Ask for Lauren though everyone seemed super friendly and attentive! read more

Mediocre, slow service. Loud, noisy bar without much going for it. At one point this place was considered legendary in its quality for local pizza. I've never had that experience, unfortunately. Pizza is maybe a step above a place like Fabios or another local delivery chain. Maybe a step below Mellow Mushrooms. But I wouldn't compare it to the great Charlottesville Pizza places (of which I consider Dr. Hos the king). Generally it was disappointing with dry crust. Though I like the idea of a "Salad Pizza". I noticed there was a general lack of attention to running food to tables. A lot of food sat in windows rather long time. Sometimes more than 5 minutes on a busy Friday night. While staff did other, seemingly lower priority tasks. If you run a restaurant - get food to those tables! Also, it just took a while for our waiter to get to us, to get our check, and check on us. Fairly mediocre service in general. read more

Amazing pizza. Right up there with the best. There was a little too much flour under the base of the pizza that became soggy. The flies around the tables were a nuisance but other than that a great experience. Good service. read more

Take out only. Recently went for dinner with the family and it was so cold inside that we had to keep our winter coats on. Service was fine and the pizza was very good. When the bill came there was an added 2 or 3% fee for "recycling" (they use disposable plates/cups in the dining room). Not a huge amount, but these add on fees popping up everywhere are just getting old. Just increase the prices a bit, don't tack it on as a surprise at the end. Would recommend them for take out. read more

Great pizza! This place could be a 5-star establishment based on the pizza alone. But the attitude of the staff is poor at best and the mixed drinks suck. When I walked in, the kitchen staff glared at me as if they didn't want to see another customer. The servers were extremely rude and openly scolded guests. They were unable to split our tab unless it was 50/50, and God forbid if you ask any of the wait staff for anything. There was always some kind of sarcastic come back and the environment was very rushed. I ordered a margarita and ask for extra tequila because my friend's margarita tasted like there was no tequila in it. I got the same sweet sugar water, despite paying for the extra shot of tequila. I recommend this place as 'take out' only. read more

Tasty pizza. I ordered takeout from Crozet Pizza on a Saturday night. They were busy, so it took about 10 minutes longer than the order confirmation promised for me to receive my food. I ordered the No Sprout About It pizza and 8 buffalo wings. The wings were not particularly spicy, but they were fairly moist and paired well with ranch as expected. The pizza was a delicious balance of flavors even though the "hot" honey was not spicy by any stretch of the imagination. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and will likely order from Crozet Pizza again. read more

So sad. Have been here 10 years in Crozet. This is now one of the last places you should go. It was the best in town. Now. Horrible. Go to pro renata or Far Downers. For Pizza go to Sals. So disappointing. read more

Crozet Pizza is easily on my top five pizza spots of all time. Everything from the restaurant itself to the food, gives off homey vibes making each bite just that much more enjoyable.

I really enjoy the pizza here!! We order the Medium Pepperoni Pizza and the Medium Italian Sausage Pizza with Red Bell Peppers. It's super tasty, and I really like the crust here! Seems like a cute place (we've only ordered to-go though), but will update my review if we ever eat in! read more

I admit, I was a little worried with the exterior photos and wondered if it would be good. It was! The pizzas were very good (4 types) and I had the Mediterranean salad which was quite good. I sampled a pizza with buffalo chicken and jalapeño, and enjoyed. My friends and family loved their Hawaiian, pepperoni and supreme-style pizzas too. The restaurant was cozy, popular place it seems, and service was pretty good. This is a halfway point for our friends and family, so we will definitely be back. read more

What the Charlottesville is lacking in Mexican, BBQ and Chinese food, it makes up for in pizza. This place ranks right below Dr. Hos, Christian's, Fabio's and Vocelli's. This is the one area that Charlottesville is strong and has not disappointed at all. Great thin crust pizza, with a flavorful crust and cooked perfectly. The only thing I did not love was the sauce. Too much of some flavor, but I am not sure of which. This is definitely the priciest around, but that is to be expected in Crozet. read more

Excellent pizza and service! We stopped in after going through the Blue Ridge Gunnel nearby and had this place on our must go list! It certainly didn't disappoint! My husband and I decided to sit on the patio out back to eat and it was a beautiful day! We started with the jalapeño poppers that were served with house made ranch for dipping. The poppers came out SUPER hot and for those wondering, they are deseeded before cooking so they aren't spicy at all. They were very good. Next we shared a pizza with mushrooms, banana peppers, and pepperoni. We also added fresh mozzarella to our pizza so it was extra cheesy! We never have room for dessert after pizza so not this time, and we even had pizza to bring home! A must eat if in Crozet! read more

We came here to get a dine in pizza as we recently moved to a house very close to this restaurant. We sat down and were trying to figure out the pizza menu (on-line only but it said not to order so it was a bit confusing). The table was very noisy and we asked to move and were told we could not. We were deciding what to do and the server came up and said we had to order or leave ( the restaurant wasn't very busy and we had only been there a few minutes). She never did explain the menu so I assume they only want locals here. We should have left but my son wanted to eat here as his friend thought it was great as he grew up close by. We ordered a pizza to go and had to wait standing up for 20 minutes as they didn't want anyone sitting down. I told a person who appeared to be a boss that we were thrown out of the dining area because we didn't want the loud table. She told us the tables were only for eat in customers. They acted like we didn't exist. We all felt the staff was very rude which we had never seen in the area. I got the distinct feeling they didn't want us in their pizza store and I very much regret going in with my family. We will not go back and strongly recommend you go elsewhere. I am sure there are places that want new customers Oh ya, the pizza. It was fair but not in alignment with the price. It was undercooked and was lacking flavor. I guess this may have been a good place at one time but evidently they have no competition and feel like they can treat people poorly. read more

I've lived semi-near Crozet pizza my whole life (or at least since it opened in 1977) but had never been. I finally took the opportunity and have no regrets. I ate on their back porch where things may even be less glamorous than inside - which is not glamorous. But that's not why you go to Crozet Pizza. Their website touts several "best pizza" quotes from several important folks and organizations. How much difference can there be in pizza? TONS. We got a straightforward meat lovers, and it is hands-down the best I've ever had. Nothing fancy here. A bit of a dive in some respects. Also their hours are a bit squirrelly now. Found conflicting info on the web, and no hours posted on the building. The Thursday we ate there, they opened at 3 pm. This is not what their FB, or webpage currently say is their opening time. read more
