I was pleasantly surprised by the freshness of the salad and pizza bar. They offered at least 6 different types of standard pizza options and 3 dessert pizzas. The crust and sauce was ok. The blueberry dessert pizza was a hit! There is a lot of cross contamination between veggie and meat pizzas because as the pizza slices get taken they mix the pizza down on to shared plates. If you are reading this management or owner may I suggest having a vegetarian area on the bar and some possible signage. The salad bar was above my expectations. Lots of fresh options. I loved the beets and garbanzo beans. If I was in the area I'd come back. read more

Downtown Pizza - The pizza buffet - Pizza Near Me - Murphy, North Carolina

Friendly staff. Quite a few tables to sit at. And there is an arcade in the back with recent games. Even a couple of party rooms. Small buffet but that's probably all you need for this area. Salad bar had an array of toppings, but I found it kind of meh. The star is the pizza. Breadsticks have a good garlicky flavor and the pizza crust had a good chew. Dessert pizza was on point as well. Being in downtown, parking is a little bearish. So you might have trouble finding a close spot. read more

Downtown Pizza - Just dang good pizza - Pizza Near Me - Murphy, North Carolina

I came here while charging the car at the DC fast charger nearby--mostly because it was close and the family was hungry. But wow, I was not expecting such a great experience! I told the staff right when we walked in, "I can't eat tomatoes." Without missing a beat, they said, "We can work with that," and immediately started making three different pizzas without tomato sauce--just for me. All three were fantastic. Great crust, great toppings, full of flavor even without the usual red sauce. The buffet setup was solid, service was genuinely kind, and the place gave off strong college pizza joint vibes (in the best way). Casual, welcoming, and full of regulars. Excellent pizza. Excellent service. If you're in Murphy and need a slice--especially if you've got dietary quirks--don't miss this place. read more

Great variety of pizza types and flavors, also a wide-ranging salad bar. Even dessert pizzas!

Downtown Pizza is definitely a kid's atmosphere. But we adults enjoy it too. The food here is always good and fresh. We will go often to have a quick dinner and a good salad. Several kind of pizza always hot and ready. Worth the trip. read more

We decided to try this place out for lunch the other day. Found it on YELP as we were going through town. Very basic exterior and interior no frills. That is not a bad thing at all, you are paying for all the bells and whistles. Order the buffet for both of us. The pizza was very good and they have a salad bar as well. It was reasonably priced for the choices you got. One of the people behind the counter told us if there was something you want that we don't have up they will make it. We will be back again the next time we are in the area. Give it a try if you are in the area. read more

We ordered a few pizzas for take-out. This place is located in the heart of downtown Murphy, so we enjoyed walking around while we waited for our pies. read more

Downtown Pizza - Exploring downtown Murphy while waiting for a pizzas. Great location. - Pizza Near Me - Murphy, North Carolina

I'm sadly convinced the only reason people come here is because it's an all you can eat buffet. Over the years we've brought our kids here and really tried to give it a go - but I kid you not - every time I eat here I have raging bowel issues the next day. Every. Time. Over a period of YEARS. I just can't. Maybe it's the water, maybe it's the pizza - maybe it's my body - but I just can't eat here. read more

On a recent visit, we brought the family here for some pizza & it was the first time I had been in years. They have remodeled since my last visit and it looks much cleaner and open now. The pizza was kept stocked on the buffet and their breadsticks are still my favorite! read more

Food is amazing it's always a first choice for a fast lunch, but if your looking for somewhere for a party I would not recommend here you have to buy their pizza and drinks from them and can't even bring your own drinks which if you have a kid you understand how much a birthday can cost. Which overall they were very rude about. But if you're looking for a fast lunch or dinner and good place for kids! read more

Ordered take out. Took forever. But understandable. Its a very busy place. Very doughy crust. Fresh vegetables. Pretty good overall.

Wonderful pizza buffet! Extremely cheap, great salad bar, arcade in the back for kids. The pizza was being put out in a rotation of different toppings, but cheese and pepperoni were always present, and it was all excellent quality! Also the dessert pizzas were awesome! I'm usually a cherry guy, but the apple pie was my favorite this time. read more

Pizzas and service are great. Place is always clean. The game room is pretty cool and lots to do.

This is a must whenever my kids and I visit my parents in Murphy, NC...and here's three reasons why: 1. Pizza buffet + YUMMY salad buffet. 2. An game room in the back with ticketing and prizes. 3. I've never seen them with less than a 100 Health Department rating. It's not gourmet pizza but it is good pizza and they will cook to order if you ask. Their dessert pizzas are really good. And, the salad bar is always fresh and cold and clean. But, this is Styrofoam plates and plastic cups kind of hometown eatery is what I'm saying! We've yet to be disappointed by Downtown Pizza Co. The price is right and the staff is friendly...even when my kids take 10 minutes trying to decide how to spend their 30 tickets on an eraser tip LOL! Put this one your list of places to eat at while in Murphy. read more

Good pizza, Great desserts, Good salad bar. It qualifies for the GGG Award. The dessert pizza's are the best awaywhere. I LIKE THE chocolate chip, and the cherry but the cinnamon and the apple are good also. read more

First time visit and was excellent. Lots of choices as it's something like a buffet that has 4-6 different kinds of pizza., including dessert options I think the prices were fair and will be back. read more

Another favorite of ours whenever we visit Murphy! Yes it's a buffet so it's not gourmet but we're not looking for gourmet. We're looking for a classic hometown eatery. Every time we visit this awesome little town of Murphy, NC, we make sure to stop in for a meal at Downtown Pizza Co. If they don't have the kind of pizza you want on their bar, let them know and they'll whip one right up for you. The salad bar is well maintained and the pizza is fresh. Their dessert pizza is awesome. The chocolate chip is my favorite but they also have a cinnamon apple and another kind that I don't eat because it's not the chocolate chip We've yet to be disappointed when leaving there. The price is right and the staff is friendly! The inside is clean and updated. Put this on your list of places to eat at while in Murphy. read more

Good quality pizza they just don't put out enough to accommodate the number of people and for some reason the place smells like urine like the dining area however the bathrooms smell clean so not sure what's up with that. If it wasn't for the smell 4.5 stars all day. read more

Go if you have kids that want to play video games. Like a CiCi pizza if Ci Ci had games. Needs a good cleaning.

Good pizza if you like pizza buffets! Definitely need to like kids to enjoy the experience:)

My wife and I ate here yesterday and left pleasantly full. Very laidback family style all you can eat pizza. Must be a game room in the back. I asked if they would add an Italian Sausage and Black Olive Pizza to the buffet, kind of a test of mine. The young Lady in charge smiled, nodded her head, and proceeded to add my request to the mix. Dang, it was good! Go there as soon as you can, as many times as you can. read more

My family and I got lost today, and then we found ourselves in Murphy, NC. We gave this place a shot, and we loooovvvvveeeedddd it. Great price and fun atmosphere! They even take requests for different kinds of pizza and desserts. I hope to be back soon! Maybe we will get lost on purpose this time? read more

Great pizza! Best pepperoni weve had in years! Great service! Definitely will be back!

Great salad options and pizza. All you can eat. New pizzas come out of the oven continually. Love the old fashioned arcade.

Pizzas are always spot on. The staff are awesome with customer service skills that are second to none. Great for feeding the crew and even a nice night out. read more

There are not many pizza places that I can say accommodate for allergies so when there is one I have to leave an awesome review. This place is great! They were able to offer me a gluten free option as well as a vegan option for my friend. Great place to stop in and eat. read more

It's a Thursday night and the pizza is lame, but the salad bar at least is good. The decor makes my appetite even less and I question the cleanliness of this place even more since my last review. Now the staff is helpful but the owners really need to look at a major remodel or at least a good cleaning! This the only pizza buffet in town with a large game room and space to hold multiple parties. So that's probably why they are still in business. It sounds harsh but they really need to close for a weekend and clean!! read more

See all

This is the first time I've been to Downtown Pizza Company and the pizza was outstanding. The pizza goes so fast because of the buffet therefore everything is constantly fresh. I definitely recommend going and trying their delicious pizza! read more

Friendly service, good pizza, clean atmosphere. They'll make any pizza you'd like to see added to the buffet. Extremely reasonably priced and a great, fresh alternative to any place with a drive thru. read more

With limited options in the area on our way back from rafting this joint hit the spot!

We got there right when they were opening and they had absolutely nothing prepared. When they finally started putting the pizzas out before any customers could get any the employees started taking it. Then I got to the bathrooms and there were cigarette butts all over the bathroom. I'm not usually one to complain but this place needs some work and the employees need to learn not to be so rude. read more

Service was simply awesome, salad bar was very fresh ! Pizza was simply spot on crust was very very good! Always had a new hot pizza ready ! Very much recommend for a simple but very good meal Was in town for a get -away at the Peace Valley KOA recommend them as well ! !! Thanks for a great week Matt !! read more

Not fancy, but clean and friendly. Price is good. I was the first customer today. They had 4 types of pizza out already and different ones kept being added. Salad bar was very fresh. One of the staff came and asked me if I had a favorite dessert pizza. Being it was my first visit, I said no and she said "I will surprise you". I ate 6 slices of various style pizzas!!! I couldn't stop... they were so good. Then a pumpkin dessert pizza came out. Excellent. I ate 2 slices of that! Then there was chocolate chip. I just couldn't fit any in. Prepare to eat lots of food. It's hard to resist. Lots of kids there. read more

Great pizza, fast service- it was ready to be picked up in ten min. Great crust! Would order again!

Amazing gf pizza! My family loved the pizza buffet too. Everyone was nice and friendly. Food was fresh, hot and delicious! Kid and family friendly place. My family loved the dessert pizzas too. read more

This pizza place not only is the cleanest, they serve some of the finest pizza in the tri-state area. Thier special spinach,feta cheese, sliced tomato, onion, and black olive pizza deserves a Michelin 3 star rating. The classic cheese pizza is as good or better than any Brooklyn fold-over I've ever tasted... The salad bar has more choices than one could ask for.. They also have the best unsweetened tea in North Carolina. read more

If you're in the mood for pizza, this is a great choice. The buffet has many varieties including dessert pizzza (the chocolate chip is my fave). The pizza is always fresh as the turnaround is quick from good business. The salad bar is nice and fresh also. The price is great. Yay! I'm a fan. Also, watch on Facebook because if your first name is picked for the day, you eat for free. Nice. :) read more

Really great pizza and salad bar. Downside is they get behind on making fresh pizzas when the crowds are smaller , so we only try to go when it's busy. The play space is okay, kids love it, but it's a little rundown. You can't beat the price for the buffet though. And the main restaurant has had a total much-needed makeover recently and looks great. read more

Great food and very clean. Excellent value for what you get and to our surprise they have dessert pizzas as well! They were awesome as were all the pizzas on the buffet. Many different options to choose from. Glad we decided to try this place out, we will definitely be coming back. read more

I know my pizza, and for a buffet, this place beats CiCi's, Stevie B's and Papa's Pizza by a long shot. Plenty of toppings, decent salad bar, great price and a staff that will make you any pizza you want. If you're in Murphy and don't want to spend a lot, check this place out. read more
