    10" Works
    Adam G.

    Looking for a quick take out or delivery pizza to feed anywhere from 1-4 people? Look no further than Grandad's. I was in a pinch, out of groceries, yet too lazy to go to the grocery store. I decided to try Grandad's Pizza because they had sizes adequate for one person. Where most pizza joints may offer the traditional small, medium or large, Grandad's offers a 7", 10", 12", 14", or 16". All for reasonable prices at that. In addition to pizza, they offer wings, strombolis, salads and sandwiches. I called ahead and ordered the 'Works' which is their take on a supreme pizza -- pepperoni, sausage, onions, green peppers and mushrooms. Grandad's shares a building with Byrne's pub and they both share a parking lot. The inside isn't much -- an ordering counter, a couple of drink coolers, and a bench to sit at if you are waiting for take out. My pizza was ready before the quoted 15 minutes. I'm a huge fan of the thin crust, however found the pizza was fairly average. Not bad, but not great. Honestly, exactly what I was expecting. The crust had a nice crunch, but I felt it could have been kept in the oven a bit longer to make the toppings more crisp. That said, I would definitely order it again.

    Works Add olives
    Terrence M.

    Wellllll hellloooo Columbus!!!! Today, I ordered the 10in the Works pizza add black olives (well done). Pros: The toppings were great and the portion was on point! The price was also reasonable. Cons: There wasnt enough sauce. I would have liked to get a robust taste of the sauce!! Iffy: Im iffy on the thin crust. The flavor of the crust was unique but I cant put my finger on why. The crust had a nice crisp to it though. It was not overly crunchy or overly soft. Definitely try it if you like thin crust pizza. Overall, I was not in love with the pizza. I'm not a big thin crust pizza person and it seems that they specialize in thin crust (I guess I should have payed attention). This is not a dig on them, this is more-so my own preference.

    Large Mushroom Pizza - $13.95

    Grandad's Pizza is classic Columbus Style pizza, cut into small squares with a thin corn mealed crust, mild tomato sauce, perfectly browned cheese and toppings of your choice. It's like Donatos but cheaper and better. $13.95 will get you a large one topping pie so it's a pretty solid deal. They also have hot toasted subs and juicy sauced up wings on the menu. There's no inside seating at Grandad's but Byrne's Pub is right next door. Bring your pie in with you or order from the bartender and they'll bring it over to your table, hot, fresh and ready to eat. Grandad's has been in business for over 25 years which makes it a true Columbus Classic. You'll have a hard time finding as good a pizza as this for the price anywhere else in town. 4 Stars

    Excellent pizza and salads. We also shared a Stromboli with pepperoni and banana peppers.

    Sausage and pep
    Dey T.

    Had a short stint in grandview and took advantage of trying a new local pizza place. Boy am I glad I did!!! This pizza has a thin cracker crust, plenty of toppings and a great tasting sauce (I think I event got a hint of spice from it). Sausage was almost sweet but went great with everything else. I'm not sure if I just got there after my pizza had been sitting for a bit but because of how thin it was it had started to get soggy, even after asking for it well baked. Even so it tasted great and I was pleased. If they had done-in I would try again to see if I can get it fresh from The oven. I will definitely be back when in the area.

    Pizza!

    Delicious pizza!!! One of the best in Columbus. I wish I could eat it everyday, but I also don't want be a piggy! Oink oink.

    My friends ordered a pepperoni pizza from Granddad's for dinner, and I really liked it! It was thin and greasy in an authentic kind-of-way. Very flavorful and hard not to binge in one sitting (I think I had double what I had originally planned to eat, and wish I had a second stomach). Perfect for game day if you want an indulgent but not too "bready" pizza. I hope to get another slice sometime soon.

    Tons of pepperoni!!

    Quick and easy service. Pizza is always great. A little pricey though. It's always been my go to for a late night slice.

We…read morespent over $80 on a to-go order that included two Gina's Gem, a big cheese pizza, and a salad. The pizza arrived cold but was still edible. Unfortunately, the Gina's Gem was nothing like what was advertised. I was expecting warm, crusty bread with a roasted cheese dip on the side so you could tear pieces of bread and dip them into the cheese. Instead, the cheese had already been spread directly onto the bread and toasted together. Because of that, the bread lost the texture you would expect--it wasn't crusty or dippable at all. It ended up soft, almost soggy, and the cheese was baked onto the bread rather than being a dip. The whole appeal of the dish was supposed to be the warm bread with the roasted cheese to dip into, and that part was completely missing. Included with the bread was a hot honey that missed the mark on being "hot" and some kind of jam. These options just made everything even more soft....which should have been impossible. The salad was actually the best part of the meal - even though it was a bit spicy. I've always had good experiences here in the past, so this was a big letdown--especially for the price. I just wish the to-go version of the dish matched how it's described, or that expectations were set correctly when ordering. Unfortunately, this experience made me lose all trust in ordering from here again. I can't believe we waited until exactly 3pm (when they opened) to order this.... At the very least the pizza should have been hot.

The kind of spot where you expect a solid beer and maybe some decent bar food. What you don't expect? One of the best Detroit-style pizzas of your life hiding behind a window in the back like some carb-based speakeasy. And when I say hidden, I mean hidden. No flashy signage. No "best pizza in town" ego. Just a quiet little window cranking out square pies that deserve a standing ovation. I ordered the classic red top -- already a bold move -- and added pesto because balance matters and I like to live a little. The result? Beyond reproach. Fresh, loaded toppings. Sauce with depth. And that crust... that beautiful Detroit crust. Crispy edges with that caramelized cheese halo, but still chewy and pillowy inside. The textural contrast is what separates amateurs from legends -- and this? This was legend-level execution. Easily top 3 Detroit-style pizzas I've had. And that's not a casual statement. If you don't understand the life-altering power of true Detroit-style pizza, I regret to inform you... you have not been living. Go find the window in the back. Trust me.
