What isn't to love about Pie Pushers? Good pizza, great sides, the wings are bomb, the eggplant fries are incredible, fun beer and local. Do I wish they delivered a little further into Durham? Yes--maybe they can use DoorDash or something to help us Souther Durhmites out :) read more

Excellent slice options. Good beer selection. Pretty fast service. Good location. Of course good quality pizza. Also had the Fried sprouts with bama sauce, EXCELLENT! Cuban slice was great. They also have a brunch menu. Good for kids by day. read more

This is hands-down the best pizza I have ever had since moving here in 1999. Barb's Margherita pizza was so delicious, and the half pie is very filling. The appetizers are also phenomenal - make sure to try the Brussels sprouts. Everyone was friendly, and the booths and tables are big and comfortable. Excellent place!! read more

Got a pie Togo on a Thursday evening. It wasn't very busy yet as it was only 5pm, but they were very quick! I didn't even have a chance to finish a full beer before my pie was ready. Got the Nirvana, it was delicious! Cooked to perfection with a generous amount of toppings. They did not skimp on anything. Little pricey, but I came in with that expectation so it wasn't a turn off. Will definitely be back! read more

I ordered a margherita pizza for delivery. The workers were really nice and the pizza came fast, but it was the worst margherita pizza I've ever had. It was smothered in olive oil, in addition to the grease from the cheese. You couldn't even hold up the slice without everything sliding off. It could also have used a little more salt. read more

Pie Pushers - Way too greasy! - Pizza Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

Pie Pushers is an institution in Durham. From a food truck to a shop to a slice during a baseball game- Pie Pushers never disappoints! Check them out at the farmers marker for a breakfast slice! read more

Pie Pushers - Whether it's the food truck, stand alone shop, or a slice from inside the Durham Bulls Stadium, I'm never disappointed! - Pizza Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

OMG once you try this pizza you might forget there is a dominos or papa johns!! The pizza is fresh, hot, and delicious. I love the fried brussel sprouts as well!! read more

Unfortunately our pesto pizza was not worth how expensive it was. It was rather dry (would prefer more pesto sauce) and then we had to pay for small sides of marinara sauce...but the pizza was already so expensive so that was a bummer. The other pizza did look tastier so maybe it was just the pesto pizza. read more

Only tried for take-out pizza as it is close by and can be ready fairly fast. To my surprise, the pizza was really yummy without being overly salty which is a common issue in restaurant food. I ordered the topping of Canadian bacon with pineapple. So Yummy! :-) The biggest pleasant surprise are the crispy (deep fried) eggplant fries and the Madrona salad. Both are deliciou!! salad tasted super fresh and so flavorful. I am putting this place on top of my pizza place from now on.. Looking forward to come back to try other items on the menu..:-) read more

I had Pie Pusher for the 1st time last night. All the expectations people said to me was it was one of the good pies in Durham. Had it at Cameron Indoor Stadium and it was THE WORST PIZZA in HISTORY. You guys should be ashamed to serve that at Duke Basketball games. I had a pepperoni and it was hard and taste like CARDBOARD!!! Straight CARDBOARD PIZZA. I was so mad at myself that I even ate it and gave you guys a chance. Cameron Indoor should bring back Dominos Pizza because they blow you guys out of the water. You guys obviously don't care about your product and just glad you were able to serve at Duke. You got lazy and don't show you care for your pizza. It's all about money to you and not the pizza. Money Pushers definitely not Pie Pushers. You should see how garage your pizza is at Duke games instead of counting your profit. You guys sure did pull a fast one on Duke University to let you sell Cardboard Pizzas Duke doesn't need pizza like that. You obviously made the pizza at your restaurant and transit over to Cameron and let it sit in a pathetic hot box. You guys probably have a good product at the restaurant, but you guys don't know how to transit it over to the basketball games. Advice - stick to the restaurant gig and get out of Cameron Indoor. The good People of Duke pay good money to watch the greatest basketball team on hardwood, and they didn't come to the game to be sick to their stomachs and eat carboa read more

We stopped upstairs for a late dinner about 9pm, the dining room was about half full, the guy behind the counter was quite rude and visibly upset. The atmosphere was cool and our pizzas came out quickly from a very kind server. The poutine was absolutely amazing, however the pizza was really just blah. Not a lot of flavor, kind of hard to chew, just not my favorite. Would try other items on the menu if I returned. read more

It took me longer than it should have to check out the new Pie Pushers restaurant. I've had their food truck multiple times and I am happy they opened a brick and mortar location. It's located right above the Pinhook and it is a cool looking spot. You order from the counter and the food will be brought to your table. There is also a bar area to chill at. Pie Pushers has good pizza, I don't rave about it but it has never disappointed me either. The wings I've tried once and I was less impressed by, I can't recommend them. The fried brussel sprouts appetizer is fantastic though. An important thing to note is that Pie Pushers is open til 2 on weekends, giving a great late-night option if you are looking for 1am bite of pizza. They also deliver which I was not aware of it! Always happy to have more delivery options. I saw a menu for a Saturday brunch, so you will be seeing an update from me once I get a chance to try that out. read more

I'm new to town and on a mission to find good pizza. I give PP 2 states because I see some opportunities to give it 5 someday. All the good stuff (location, ambiance, beer selection) was squashed by two things- poor service and soggy pizza. The counter guy could care less about being there. When I asked if I could get a slice of cheese with jalapeños added, he said 'we don't do that kind of thing'. 'What thing?' I asked. 'Add items to slices' Well, I didn't realize that a slice of cheese was a work of art not to be ruined so I let it go. Not much else here qualified to be considered average customer service. I ordered a Queen Anne and a slice with Brussels. The toppings were great, but the middle crust of each was so soggy it fell off the slice. I'm ready to give this place another shot. Maybe I will sit and eat at the bar, have a pint and get to k ow their story. It was Monday, after all. read more

Pie pushers discriminates against the disabled. They don't care about making their food accessible to people with mobility and motor skill problems and those who cannot drink without straws. Their answers was just carry tons of straws with you. Making it impossible for my autistic son to eat a meal there. read more

As a New York transplant who appreciates a good quick slice and doesn't need anything fancy, Pie Pushers is great at satisfying my pizza cravings. Their regular cheese or pepperoni is solid but their more creative slices get interesting too. The crust is super thin, almost cracker-like, so probably not for you if you're into a thicker pie. read more

As a transplanted New Yorker I am always in a quest to find good pizza. I wanted to like this place. The decor is real neat as you go up the stairs. I got a regular slice and a pepperoni slice. The cheese slice was unremarkable. Bland and bereft of any flavor. I know some Digiorno frozen pizzas that have a more pronounced flavor. The pepperoni slice didn't fare any better. The only thing that had flavor was the pepperoni. Sorry, that's going to be a NO from me... read more

Yes! Yes! Yes!!!! When you've been to a restaurant twice In One week...ummmm so freakin good. Hot huge slices. A large pie fed 4 of us but if I could make one request??? Make bigger pies!!!! read more

Based on literally 0 vegan options. The crust isn't even vegan so a cheeseless pizza isn't even good. Ugh.

Slices are HUGE! Wait time for to-go is no wait! Can't go wrong there! Side salad is actually pretty large! Amazing atmosphere inside if you have time to sit and enjoy. Staff is super friendly! read more

Already was a fan of their food truck....And now I'm a fan of their restaurant...Love the seating style and the lighted signs definitely give it even more of a cool factor......And of course the prices are very reasonable...The brick and mortar location will be on my list of stops to eat as well... read more

Stopped at the new Pie Pushers brick and mortar location before DPAC for a quick bite. I have been a fan of the food truck for a long time and the menu is generally similar. You can order by the slice, half pie, or full pie. The menu is obviously expanded from the food truck, but some of my favorites weren't on the menu. I always liked that Pie Pushers would create some crazy combinations and the menu felt somewhat toned down. The do offer salads, wings and a few other sides as well and several beers as well. My biggest complaint was that it is not handicap friendly. I brought my Mom who has bad knees and there was no avoiding the massive flight of stairs to get up there. Overall, it's a great place for a quick bite that's not going to break the bank downtown. Also, there's the late night window option which I am sure will come in handy one of these days as downtown Durham needs more late night options. read more

Pie Pushers - Small but cozy. - Pizza Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

See all

Great crispy crust no frills and they make pizza so don't expect to cool off on this top floor establishment. The wedge was good could be amazing with some bacon crumbles but everyone is different and still excellent with the balsamic drizzle. Didn't get to try any of their fun pizzas but the table across from us had a pie that smelled heavenly. read more

Great food and people. This is a must try if you are around here. The Bfast pizza is amazing. read more

Pie Pushers - This place is the shizzzzz. Bfast pizza at its best. Great food and people. Must try if you are around here. - Pizza Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

This is probably my favorite pizza spot. Parking is annoying and sometimes a long wait time is required but it is all worth it. I appreciate the creativity in the daily specials and the variety of toppings that they use. Customer service is always nice and they have different specials during the week and on certain holidays. read more

Having recently moved to the area I was excited about giving Pie Pushers a try. I ordered Sicilian cheese pizza slice for $4.50 & a glass of red wine. Total $13.00 I'm Sicilian, lived in Buffalo & can make a mean pizza! The crust is way too thick with a minimal amount of a nice sauce. In my mind this is more of a open face pizza sub! Very disappointed. Will return to try the wings & compare them with The Anchor Bar or better yet Duffs! Have to wonder about the blue cheese...next time! Cute place & clean restrooms. read more

The pizza was awesome! I am super picky about my my crust and this had just the right bite. It was popular but not packed on a Friday night, maybe because of its upstairs location. Parking is pretty easy in the deck behind it, but if you don't know the area it can be easy to miss this gem. My daughter loves the Pie Pushers truck, but I don't like eating pizza standing up. I am so happy there is a sit down restaurant. The place is modern, new and clean, with helpful staff. The pizza came out fast too. read more

We frequent the truck by Ponysaurus a few sundays a month. The pizza is great, the sides (Brussels sprouts, eggplant fries etc) are amazing. Casual atmosphere - nice place to chill. read more

Pie Pushers - Yum - Pizza Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

Durham-based food truck pizza that's just *so* Durham...a little out of the ordinary but lacking no luster. There's quite the selection of pizza joints in the Triangle. What sets Pie Pushers apart? Their "Durham-style" hand-tossed thin crust and eclectic seasonal toppings focused on supporting local farmers and artisans. I visited the Main Street location just above Pinhook. Immediately you'll notice that the owners Mike and Becky Hacker have a love and passion for Durham, and they captured that essence perfectly at this location. I ordered a slice of pizza with asparagus, sweet corn, and goat cheese. Each ingredient complimented the other in such a surprisingly fun - and delicious - way. I also enjoyed the dry rub wings, which were pretty good...but I'd stick with the pizza next time. I couldn't get enough of the creative ingredients, slightly crunchy yet fluffy crust, and cheesy goodness on my big slice of heaven. Really, the slices of pie are ginormous making this a great bang for the buck. You can also order an entire pizza and a cold beer. I haven't tried (but hope to!) their Saturday brunch from 9-2. I can only imagine what yumminess they whip up fresh from the market! read more

Pie Pushers - Seasonal ingredients = surprising & fun flavors! - Pizza Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

Great food!!! Delicious combo...the Local Brat is a flavor bomb of savory and tartness with the mustard...pretty reasonable. It was under $20.00 for two slices and two beers... I'd recommend if you want a local low key causal pizza joint that pushes the boundaries of foodie flavors! read more

I was very excited to try this pizza (mainly because of the interesting combinations and ingredients offered). I was a bit disappointed with the options we had. I was under the impression that you could customize slices and you can only customize half pies. This proved for a very expensive outing for pizza. I will say that the brussel sprouts were delicious! The sauce was barely on the pizza and there was so much mozzarella. I think the winner was my dad's dan'szza. ingredients were fresh, just not in awesome proportions according to my specific pizza-desire. maybe it'll be perfect for most :) read more

PIE PUSHERS. The food is so good, the people that work there are so great. They actually saved my butt and catered my wedding less than two weeks before the date. Guests RAVED about the pizza, even the naysayers who thought pizza was too casual. People told me it was the best wedding food they ever had. Their salads and dips are top notch too. read more

Pie Pushers is my favorite pizza in Durham, especially the combo of mushrooms, goat cheese, and roasted garlic on a red pie. They contacted me after a misunderstanding about delivery right away and I feel bad that I overlooked updating my review at the time, which I'm correcting now. Their food is really great and I've liked everything I've gotten from there. And they exhibited good prompt customer service when I had my issue with delivery, which they gave a understandable explanation for. read more

Nice local pizza shop. It is easy to miss as it is a second floor location. They also have a yummy pizza truck. That is worth visiting as well. The shop has ample seating and a nice bright location with its windows. read more

Don't believe the hype! This place offered curbside to go which was great however the food was a MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT. I ordered a slice of pepperoni pizza and two orders of dry rub wings. The pizza which was eaten in the car was LUKE WARM. The cheese was not even melted completely, with barely any sauce. If I wanted cheese bread I could have went to little cesars which would have tasted better at a more reasonable price. The Wings do not taste how they look! I came here for the wings based on reviews however I was let down. The wings had no flavor, and the quality of chicken was very fatty. The ranch saved the day , thank god for hidden valley. My partner ordered a side of curry sauce which was 1.00 extra for a small dipping sauce container. The curry sauce was not good at all. Overall the price point and the flavor/food quality do not align. I did not arrive right before closing so there was no reason I should have received Luke warm pizza and tasteless wings. I would never return to this place again even if the food was free. Tip to the chef, if you are going to re-warm pizza make sure it is fully heated before serving to paying customers! Do yourself a favor and save your time and money. Parking is horrible and food is not worth the effort. read more

Pie Pushers - Bland tasting wings - Pizza Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

Always satisifies, friendly staff. Avoid the construction worker rush during the weekday.

I've had pie pushers a few times and it's always delicious. One day during Covid, I went to pick up an order and noticed something was wrong. I let them know and they were so awesome about it. they made a new pie and let us keep the old pie and even gave us delicious brownies- definitely try the brownies! read more

Yummy! I tried their pizza (food truck) and was pleasantly surprised by the price (very reasonable) and the quality of the ingredients. I would recommend. I would like to try the brick and mortar location based on my experience with the food truck! read more

On 04.25.2019, I entered Pie Pushers with another person for dinner. From the start, we were spoken to rudely with eye-rolls at the register. After paying for a whole pizza, we ate with interruption and nasty behavior by staff who grabbed a plate out of my hand as my fork and plate had food on it. The other person I was with had to tell the staff that I was still eating. We didn't notice anyone else like this being treated in the restaurant and were clearly targeted because we were Black. As an lgbtq Black customer, I was appalled that after paying people continually kept clearing our table while we were eating and talking in addition to grabbing food from me as I was eating without me asking or saying it was okay. It ruined the entire meal and the restaurant staff honed in on us. It's not an atmosphere for Black people nor other non-white people. Do not shop at this restaurant. Very aggressive, racist, and scary. read more

I have been here a few times and the pizza has been Great, as a returning customer today however the service was less than sub-par,from the cashier to the servers. There were also other customers in the restaurant complaining about their orders and the staff has been less than accommodating. I'm giving three stars because despite the poor service today the food is still undeniably good, especially for a quick lunch break. read more
