I am from Mt. Healthy. This is better than Angelo's, and I don't take that lightly. This may be the best pizza in the entire world.

Always a great pizza! Sauce is sweet, but not too sweet. Toppings are plentiful & the pizza (though greasy), has lots of flavor! Quick service & a Middletown favorite! read more

Great pizza at a very reasonable price. The small pizza is actually big enough for two people to share.

This food is beyond amazing. We got a large pizza and I think it weighed 20 pounds. Very fresh and hot. Also did two deluxe steak subs and a meatball sub. All were very delicious no complaints here. Would definitely recommend. My order was ready when they said it would be asks the staff was friendly and helpful. This is a nice place but no sit down eating- just carryout and delivery and they are also well stocked on beverages- pop and beer etc. I'm going back for sure. read more

Great pizza! Excellent cauliflower crust for those that are gluten sensitive or want something with a little less carbs! I love the cheese on top for something different. I grew up eating this with my great grandma (nana) she always ordered this when we got pizza with her. A Middletown tradition! read more

Old school pizza joint, my wife's hometown favorite and it has since become one of my favorite's also,,outstanding always

Review from 2021 Nice people but a couple of things Service: They are very friendly. Taste: Somewhat bland Appearance: Very neat looking pizza. No oil slime anywhere and the box was in tact. Issue: Midwest pizzas never have enough sauce. I ordered extra and that pizza was still dry as ever. Also, the pizza itself smelled bad. It smelled like a high school boys locker room. Not sure why. It was a pep, bacon pizza, nothing fancy, but the aroma was so unappetizing. The pizza was okay but it was such a turn off that I've never went back. Honestly, a hot pocket is the best pizza you'll get in Middletown. Joking aside, Rapid fired is the winner for pizza in Mid-town. read more

This is, by far, the best pizza in town. They have cauliflower crust for pizza, which is good for those of us who are gluten-sensitive. It's delicious. Some places with similar offerings just can't figure out how to cook the cauliflower crust properly. Shaddocks has. The steak sandwiches are also amazing! read more

Service is good known them for a long time. It's kind of a run down spot tho with long waiting for pizza. Pizza has heavy amounts of sauce too so I recommend light sauce. read more

Great pizza! They are fast and the pizza is delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful. I hadn't been to Shaddock's in several decades and I was so impressed that I've had their pizza two days in a row. Five stars, hands down! read more

They have the best mushroom subs in the tristate. Smiley!!! Mighteenice read more

Ordered X-Large pepperoni pizza and requested the pepperoni be put ON TOP of the cheese... 7 pepperoni! Must be why they put the pepperoni UNDER the cheese... thanks for the cheese pizza read more

Original Pizza with great taste. Love their green olives they have on the pizza. A hometown favorite..

This was my first try with this pizza and it was delicious. The Friday special is a XL pepperoni pizza. I didn't realize that the cheese covered the pepperoni at first glance but it's there hiding under all that wonderful thick cheese! We had some wings with the pizza of course and they were pretty good. Staff are super friendly. Nice that you can grab some cold beverages there to enjoy with the pizza. read more

We were in town visiting family and wanted to try some local pizza. We ordered 3 17" pizzas on a Friday evening. One pepperoni, one Special Deluxe, and one with pepperoni, banana peppers and onions. Our experience was very average. To start there was no menu online so we had to call to get a menu which they texted to us. We've included it here. We ordered the pizza and were able to pickup in 30 minutes. The pizzas were very heavy and looked pretty good (we forgot a picture!). Lots of cheese covering the toppings but the crust wasn't really visible. The crust was pretty flavorless in the places it wasn't burnt. The toppings were good but the crust majorly needs improved! Probably wouldn't buy from here again but I've also had worse. read more

Been going here 20+yrs....4 topping pizza..$12.95 great price. Went in about a month ago, was $19.95...said prices went up..yet same menu was up...still up. I haven't been bk and will never go bk. Bait n switch.....pretty sad. read more

This is one of the favorites from my youth, my teens, my early adulthood and my middle-age. It's been great for years and heres to many more! Last time I had it, I farted for ages. read more

It's sad to say this is probably the only mom and pop pizza joint in Middletown. The pizza is quite horrible, too much cheese and little flavor. I'm still surprised people actually decided to spend there well earned money at this disgrace of a pizza restaurant. read more

First time trying this place. Very good! This place doesn't skimp on the toppings. Edge to edge with sauce, cheese, and topping. Took the family and sat outside at the picnic table. Hoagies were very juicy and cheesy. We will be back for sure read more

Extremely rude customer service. They now have followed the big chain companies and added a easy bake pizza oven belt? Not sure what to call it. So dirty in there , leave door open and pizza being rolled out 2 feet from the rude lady taking your money. Money hungry! Should probably put money into keeping bugs out‍ read more

If you are anywhere near here or want to make a trip for some great food this is a must have! I will be back over and over.

Best part about Shaddocks? You can get your pizza hot and your beer cold. This is by far the best craft beer selection around! We were excited to see some of our favorites like Rhinegiest and 3 Floyds stocked here! While the pizza is nothing to write home about, it is certainly a Middletown institution and tradition that dates back to when my parents were kids- good memories all around! read more

Years ago, I've been told that this place made fantastic pizza. My husband grew up here in Middletown and we came back for some family business and he ordered a pizza for us for dinner and went and picked it up. I'm not sure when or why pizza places decided to cut their pizza into squares, but please stop it! It's a pizza... Cut it into slices like a pizza. The toppings were all under the cheese. All of it would've been quite tasty except for one thing: the crust. Cardboard and flavorless. Just horrible. Husband was disappointed and I was too. Never again. read more

Lots of cheese. Sauce is savory not sweet. The crust is very crunchy. Do not expect dominos or papa johns when you order from here. We love this place. There is no other place in town like it. They do only take cash but knowing that it's no problem. They also have a big selection of chips and booze. Perfect for a one stop before the big game. read more

Great local pizza...loads of cheese. We often order the Italian dinner salad. Always freshly made, no brown leaves or preservatives. Hoagies are oven baked and fresh. They have a drive thru you can pick up your order which is nice! read more

Shaddock's Pizza is the most unassuming little hole-in-the-wall that you'll ever encounter, but for those in the know, it's easily one of the best sources for delicious pizza in the Middletown area. Always heavily loaded with cheese and toppings, these pizzas are a bit pricier than the average pizza chain, but well-worth every penny. The hoagies and pizza burgers are family favorites as well. If you're ready to try something different from the typical $10 pizza deals, you owe it to yourself to give Shaddock's a try. Your results may vary, but for us, their pizza is tough to beat. read more

I hadn't eaten here in a long time. I'm glad we decided to order dinner from them tonight. The pizza is just as good as I remembered it. We'll definitely be ordering more often. read more

Fabulous pizza and steak sandwiches that never disappoint!!! Always hot, always perfectly cooked! Has been a favorite for a long time! You simply must try!!! read more

I would give zero stars if I could. Ordered 4 subs and Garlic bread and it cost almost $60. The food was so disgusting no one could even eat it-our dog wouldn't even eat the food-and when we called to tell them the food was horrible, they wouldn't even let us talk; just kept saying their food is excellent and nothing was wrong with it. We didn't want a refund, we were just telling them that they needed to work on it. The woman who answered the phone was incredibly rude, wouldn't let me finish a sentence, and kept repeating how everyone loves their food, so the problem was us. Their garlic bread is a soggy bun with garlic salt, the "steak" sub was made out of some unidentifiable chunk of meat-not even beef-and the sauce was awful beyond description. Their Italian sub is a ham and pickle loaf sandwich. If you want to spend $60 on dinner, order from Cousin Vinny's, because the food is actually good. Will never order from this place, again. And just so everyone knows, their food is so "good" that they knew exactly who we were, because we were the only order they had. read more

If you like cheese, give this place a try! Had their pizza for the first time yesterday. It put me in a happy place! FYI, they only take cash! read more

Seriously the best pizza in the area (Middletown, Butler County) - It has the same recipe and taste since I ate there as a kid. They arent stingy with the cheese and toppings like most pizza joints. The hoagies and sandwiches are great too. It is carryout only, no dine in. But the price and quality make it worth the drive there. I walked out with a large deluxe and a medium cheese for $26. Cant beat that. They use to do cash only but now they take checks too. I think it has always been a family owned business. Give it a whirl! read more

Sadly Shaddock's legacy has come to a screeching halt, it's over! Walked in to pick up my eagerly anticipated order and the historic ovens were gone replaced by some amateur easy bake oven, really! I inquired about what happened and the new girl could care less. And the food told the story; worst Shaddocks I've ever had after 40 years, couldn't finish what they called a pizza and it was my last. The end. read more

I have lived in MIddletown off and on for 30 years, but I had never been to Shaddocks Pizza. A friend told me that they have the best sandwiches in the Universe. I ordered their famous steak sandwich and a Italian sub. Both of the sandwiches were the best I've ever tasted. The famous steak sandwich was outstanding. It had a nice thick cut of beef, they piled on the cheese and placed just the right amount of pizza sauce, onions and mushrooms on the freshly baked hoagie bread. Go check this place out. It's just a hole in the wall, but its the best in town. read more

I love Shaddocks pizza. My family loves when I bring it home. You get a lot great tasting pizza for the money. And they don't skimp on the cheese either. But they only take cash which is why I gave them four stars. If you want good pizza, go to to ATM and go to Shaddocks. :) read more

This is a family favorite. Definitely not a cookie-cutter pizza. Great long time staff, always perfect pizza, my father loves this place.

Best pizza and pizza burgers in town. I highly recommend the deluxe pizza burgers. One of the few things I miss about living in Middletown.

Shaddocks has the Best Pizza around. They are very generous with toppings and crispy but not hard crust. Their Steak sandwiches and pizza burgers are delicious as well. read more

Best Pizza! Have been eating Shaddock's pizza since 1972. I don't live in Middletown anymore, but make a special side trip to Shaddock's if I get within 50 miles. Have even been known to have them freeze a dozen or so for me to take home. The pizza has always been cut into squares with the toppings underneath a mountain of cheese. The deluxe is the absolute best! read more

Our favorite gooey, cheesy, home style pizza! They cut their pizza into squares, pile on sauce and toppings, then load it with tons of cheese. They're always fast and have a good selection of chips, drinks, etc. read more

The reason for only 3 stars is because of an employee at Shaddock's. While the pizza and steak hoagie were phenomenal, this employee's actions ruined the experience. At this time, Shaddock's is drive thru only. I pulled up and was behind 3 boys on bicycles. Their ages ranged from ~9 - 15. They ordered chips and drinks. The lady had an attitude with them from the start, and when she brought the order, she didn't have the youngest boy's chips. She said he didn't order them when I could clearly hear him order them from inside my car. Then, for no reason, told him to come back when he "grew up". The kids started to ride away and she stepped halfway out the door and in a very ghetto manner said "What? What's up??" like she wanted a confrontation with them. To their credit, they just rode away. There is absolutely no reason to treat anyone like that! And to be a service employee and act like that? She should be fired. I saw the boys after I left and let them know she was out of line and they did nothing wrong. That employee was just looking for trouble. Makes me question whether I want to give them anymore of my business when they have employees who don't treat people with respect. read more
