My wife and I truly enjoyed our visit to this spirited pizza joint in Ludlow. The staff were clearly happy to be there and greeted us enthusiastically. We ordered two small pizzas. Both were quite tasty. Lots of toppings to choose from. The patio where we ate was shady and overlooked an interesting shopping area. The indoor dining area was fun as well--complete with throwback video games and a table with chairlift seats. Will be sure to visit again the next time I'm in town! read more

Inconsistent website hours. Doesn't answer phones when their websites says that they are open

Great pizza, great family owned business, quick pizza making with fresh ingredients. Great variety of options for toppings. Quaint Sitting area with lift chairs!! read more

Don't give the ovens a break and tell me I have to wait a half hour while my party is starving.

Freaking phenomenal! 10/10 service, pizza came out in less than 5 minutes piping hot with perfect crust! The atmosphere was the best part, my wife and I felt like Shaggy and Scooby Doo stumbling by chance into one of the coolest places ever! The grooviest music and old decor all the way around made it a perfect dinner. read more

Went at 6 pm on a Saturday night in Late Feb. and they were so busy that they had a two wait for takeout. We would up getting half priced expired pizzas from the freezer and they were really good. Go early!! read more

Food is great! amazing customer service very kind workers. really awesome looking spot, only a few points in my book away from a 5, the chairs are not to most comfortable, the pool table (as expected) was not free and that it. the food was very filling, for four of us we took a small pizza and 2 calzones all were great but we took about a calzone and most of the pizza home for the day after. the place flat out looks cool, tons of funny posters and a MOTORCYCLE on the top floor! great place would recommend to all.(pizza is made in an awesome fire stone oven) i would've given it even a 4.5/5. read more

I would not recommend stopping here. It's a very small establishment with barely any seating and on top of that you need to seat yourself. In addition, to order any food, you have to order it at the counter, so you're pretty much doing all of the work. The actual pizza itself did come out fast but it was super greasy and wasn't good quality. read more

After a great day of skiing at Okemo I wanted to grab a quick bite for dinner and pizza sounded good so I figured I would give Goodman's America Pie a chance since it is just down the road from the entrance to Okemo. Located in a small cluster of shops you find a cool funky shop making wood fired pizza. The inside is weird and playful in the good way; when you walk in the order counter is a colorful van and there is all kinds of interesting decor. The seating area has a pool table and a couple of the tables have converted skilift chairs. The menu is pizzas and some salads; as is my usual approach I like to get a cheese pizza as this is the best way to try a pizza. I ordered a large cheese by phone and they said it would be about 15 minutes. When I got to the shop they let me know that it would be a bit longer since they had to double an order in front of me. The pizza making operation has one guy stretching the dough, another topping the pizza and a third manning the wood fired oven which can only handle a couple of pizzas at a time. The good news is that since this is a thin crust and a very hot oven the actual cook time is short. When the pizza came out it filled the box and the pizza is not quite a perfect circle. There are a number of slightly charred parts, the cheese is fully cooked and there are large pieces of tomato around the outer edge. The slices are great, a bit soft and floppy in the middle, crisper outside and the outer crust is crisp like a cracker. The cheese is tangy and just a bit greasy while the sauce is mild and sweet with the tomato hunks adding flavor and texture. Overall one of the best pizzas I have had since they use high quality ingredients, cook the pizza expertly and aren't afraid to be a bit quirky. I would highly recommend Goodman's American Pizza, but it may not be for everyone. They are making an idiosyncratic pizza that is not really mainstream, but is delicious and really well done. If you are in the area give them a try. read more

Absolutely the best pizza anywhere around Okemo!! We have been coming to Goodman's for years now and it is as consistent and spectacular as ever! We always do take out but every time we have been there, the cashiers and the pizza makers are so personable and engaging. We were a little early tonight but they asked us if we wanted a beer and talk to us the entire time. The pool table beckoned but the guys were too awesome to leave. We had cheese, pepperoni and the Diablo pizzas. So amazing and tasty on every level. read more

Came here due to the reviews and it was literally on my way to Woodstock. Ordered the 12" pizza with half maple bacon and half rip curl, which are the top popular pizzas. The maple bacon was fantastic!!! It was more spicy than I expected. The rip curl was good but if they added some seasoning, it would take it up one level. Maple bacon: 5/5 Rip curl: 4/5 read more

Goodman's American Pie - Pizza Near Me - Ludlow, Vermont

We are from NJ, originally Delco PA. We know our pizza. That being said, this must actually be the one and only good pizza place in VT! I prefer a little more sauce, but the crust was very thin, very good, cooked perfectly. I don't think the crust could handle any more sauce. Staff was friendly and attentive and prices were reasonable they have outdoor seating in the back overlooking a creek if you want to eat with a nice serene view. My daughter got the Caesar salad with chicken and it was also wonderful. She ate the whole thing and helped me eat my pie. Very limited indoor seating so if you go in the colder months you might want to do takeout. In nice weather they have plenty of seating on the front porch area in addition to the indoor dining area. read more

Pizza made just the way I like it, crispy. Their Luau pizza with pineapple and ham is the BEST EVER! It is topped with a smoky sauce that sets off the flavors perfectly. YUM. We ordered in advance and the pizza was ready on time. We then ate in house. Plenty of seating-- we chose the gondola seats for fun. Excellent friendly service too. Will be back many times. read more

This place is great. Negative ratings are just whiny people. Great pizza. Normal people. Plenty of room to sit and some cool games for kiddos read more

Sooooo good! What a hidden gem of a stop - It's set back. Was recommended by a good friend and so glad we poked on in. Wood fired pizza that was so delicious. Was two 12" pies, Clint's luau and the Rip Curl. We had two canned pilsners, that were also really good from a local brewery. This will definitely be a regular stop on our yearly trip to Ludlow. Thanks Goodman's, we'll be back! read more

This local place was one of few places open on a Monday and I'm so glad they were. Yelp was correct with their review. The pizza was so my style (NY) and I loved the every bite. Not much seating but we sat at a table. I'll definitely be back and I'll Will also do take out. read more

When you walk in, you should be greeted. If it's super busy, I get it. But after 15 mins of looking at the pizza makers and the meth dude who only wants to talk about his job and the shitty drive and everything else wrong w the world, u should be greeted or at least be asked why you're there staring at the people making pizzas . But when new customers walk in, nobody notices. The issue here is rural Vermont...no one wants to work hard or at all When you're cutting a pizza in the box, you shouldn't be yelling. When you yell you spray saliva And who wants that all over their pies? Maybe new yawkas. No one learns respect and customer service. Why? Cuz no one owns the place. And they just don't care. The pizza has gotten slowly worse too. But again in rural Vermont what other chose do you have. None. Which is how these places stay open. read more

Cool atmosphere and friendly staff. Had a long wait, but it was fine. Pizza was good, I liked their dough, made for a nice crispy wood fired touch! Has an alternative, skier vibe there! read more

Interesting tidbit: We actually tried to order a pizza on a Saturday evening but couldn't because they said they were so booked with orders that they couldn't take anymore for the night. I never heard of that at a pizza place, but we ended up trying again the next day. We ordered two of the small pizzas: Artic Cluck and the Diablo Chicken. Both were fantastic! The Artic Cluck tasted so fresh and each bite was a balance mouthful of tomato, basil and chicken. The Diablo Chicken was my favorite out of the two just because I loved the heat. Also very well balanced pie but the flavors together were just addicting. Both pizzas even tasted good cold. I am for sure going to come back to this place the next time I'm in town. read more

Ordered the Diablo and a plain cheese. The tomato sauce was amazing. The Diablo was the perfect level of spice, definitely not burn your face off. It's worth trying! The vibes in this place are great, not to mention it was very clean. Staff was friendly too. This was true wood fired pizza, might just have to swing by here again next year read more

Pizza had really good flavor, and i love thin crust, but I felt like the bottoms of the pizza could have been a little crispier. We got 3 pizzas and all three were thin, but doughy (maybe a tiny bit underdone in the center?) Staff was really nice, location is really small. During the busy time of day, trying to get a table gave me anxiety since there was no one really organizing who got say next. It was like a group of people going in and out staring you down to see if you leave your spot.... read more

Delicious pizza, wonderful service, and all around great experience. Their wood-fired pizza's reminded me of Chicago! So yummy! read more

My nephew and nieces were in search of a delicious slice of good ol' wood fired pizza after an exhausting day of terrorizing the slopes, and boy did Goodman's American Pie satisfy my fixed necessities. The atmosphere and music made me feel right at home, grooving and moving like the fellas and I back in the 80s. The maple bacon and outlaw pies were absolutely spectacular, a round of applause to the young pups spinning the dough and spreading the sauce. The only issue was ordering online the second time and waiting two hours just to have to pick up the dang cheesy pie. Do you know what happens when a 6 year old is hungry and can't eat for 2 hours? I had 911 on standby nephew! Otherwise, a great addition to the cozy town of Ludlow. Vermont. read more

Best pizza for what's in ludlow that's for sure! The owners are amazing folks! Good for any occasion

Pizza is not bad but was burnt.... I also called to place a fast pickup order and was told they are no longer doing To-go service. When arrived they told me 10 min and we will have your order ready. Go in person or you will be denied. Please focus on perfection. read more

Goodman's American Pie - Burnt Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Ludlow, Vermont

The pizza is really fantastic. A neighbor told me to try it and I love woodfired pizza, so I happily obliged. I got the vegetarian and it was packed full of flavor and baked perfectly. Not burnt, not underdone. The ingredients tasted like quality and the cheese was not overdone, just perfect amount and high quality. My only suggestion or caveat would be - I ordered a salad. They offer "Cesars" but it was really just a big pile of chopped romaine in a to go box with a side of Cesar dressed (obviously from a bottle) and a tiny container of croutons. I think they should create a salad that even slightly mimics the quality of their pizza. Or just scrape salads from the menu. The contrast between the quality o the pizza vs the lame, loveless salad impacts my overall impression of my dinner. All that being said, I will definitely be back for more pizza. read more

Great pizza. Friendly service. Second location makes it easy for pickup. Not far from the center of Ludlow. Pizza was ready when they said it would be ready read more

Pizza was delicious - we did the triple bypass, cheese, Clint's Luau, and buffalo chicken. We ordered a Caesar salad but they ran out of salad at 6pm which was pretty disappointing. Also we called at 6pm and they scheduled us to pick up our food by 8:40pm. Great pizza but crazy wait time. read more

Best pizza in town! Trust me, you can't do Ludlow without some slices from Goodmans. I say this as a pizza enthusiast from the ZA capital, New Haven. There's always something interesting to try. Friendly, fast and affordable too! read more

This place was incredible. We had a large group of kids and adults and everyone loved the atmosphere, food, and service. Got three pies (cheese, veggie, pepperoni, and two Caesar salads.) We were served quickly and the kids couldn't get enough of the pool table during the super short wait. Wish we lived closer! read more

I try to get Goodman's when I can since they always sell out. Place is smaller inside but I tend to get just takeout. Overall, great pizzas and awesome staff! read more

Superb pizza and scary fast. We didnt have time to get half done with a game of pool before first pizza arrived.

Rounding up for generous topping distribution. We called earlier in the day to schedule a later takeout order at the end of a long drive, but still ended up with a bit of wait since they were still busy at the tail end of dinner service. While I love a thin crust, woodfired scorching on one side yet also a doughy, underbaked crust left me wishing they had rotated one more time in the crowded oven. Our custom order ended up being more expensive than the pizza we got in Stowe, so their specialty pizzas are the most cost effective way to go. We'll be back at least one more time for sheer Ludlow convenience... and because that Arctic Cluck sounds too tasty to pass up. read more

Phenomenal pizza, and a great family take out option when the city is packed. Call early as they get really backed up.

Excellent pizza! We were at a wedding and this lovely couple were serving up the best pizza ever! There was no waiting and they were very friendly and welcoming. They own a restaurant in the area and if I lived there I would totally use them for a party or whatever. They were at a venue with a mobile wood fired oven. Super pleased with the food! read more

Doesn't get much better. We certainly appreciate the incredible service of ALL of the staff and can't wait for next time!! read more

Dropped in here with the kids after a fun ski day. The place was fairly busy with a constant flow of people picking up pizza. The tables are first come first grabbed. Then you go and order at the counter. Or you take the risk and order first and hope some space frees up. There are maybe 6 tables downstairs and 3 upstairs. Staff were super friendly even when busy. We were allowed to customize our pizza and on mine I was debating between 2 similar ones so the lady had one on either side for me. Sizes are 12 and 16 inch. We had one big and one small between 4 of us and it worked well but maybe if you are hungrier would need more. There are a few fun / funky decorations, and upstairs a throwback arcade section with a few games for kids. Downstairs a pool table and a couple of the dining tables have seats made from lift chairs suspending on poles. They have a bar section and a few local beers. Prices are all reasonable. read more
