We've always enjoyed our visits to Square Pizza. Right on Independence Square. Good vibe, friendly staff, and a nice mix of booth and table seating for groups. It's been about a year since our last stop and was a good option after visiting the Harry S. Truman Museum & Library nearby. We ordered a small beef pizza and garlic knots. While the garlic knots were tasty, the portion (3 pieces) felt a little small for an appetizer. The pizza was good, not quite as put-together as we've had before, but still cheesy and satisfying. Pro tip: grab a side of their sauce for dipping, they go heavy on the cheese. Love that they offer both a soda fountain and bottled soda, and as always, the staff was friendly. We will be back! read more

Square Pizza - Cheese burger pizza - Pizza Near Me - Independence, Missouri

We were near Independence Square and stopped at Square Pizza for a late lunch. It was warmer and more humid inside than expected on a hot summer day. The a/c definitely needed to be adjusted. The menu had a lot of good options and we settled on cheese bread, a small Chicken Alfredo pizza, a small Square House Supreme, and a pepperoni calzone. The cheese bread was quite good, but the accompanying marinara needed some seasoning. The pizzas overall were fine. I liked the crust and they definitely were not skimpy on the cheese. On the Alfredo, the sauce lacked punch and the cubed chicken similarly didn't have much flavor. The Supreme had fresh toppings, but again the sauce was just okay. Full disclosure, I am the only one in our group who had this opinion. My daughter who ordered the calzone really enjoyed it. My husband and another daughter really liked the pizza and would definitely go back. But I am a sauce enthusiast and was underwhelmed. Service was...mostly quiet. The guy who brought the cheese bread to our table was polite. The guy who brought the pizzas was mute. We were kind of amused by his stony silence. My daughter swears she heard the faintest "You're welcome" after she thanked him but I think she imagined it. Hey, not everyone is a people person. read more

Service is welcoming. Will answer any questions you may have. Last time we meet family there. They have a room for a large crowd. I didn't get anything to eat there, as they were unable to accommodate for a plant based diet. Hopefully they bring in some vegan options soon. read more

Worst pizza I have had in a while. Hawaiian. Six thin slices of not really Canadian bacon, about half the pineapple that should have been, soggy crust, and way too much cheese. Maybe just a bad night for these guys but I won't be back. read more

We are visiting from Oregon for 6 months and we have eaten here 3 times already. Friendly staff, great accommodations and really good pizza. The crust is just the way I like it. A good crust but chewy and holds up to the toppings with good flavor. read more

Pizza is my favorite and we have it quite often. First time trying the Square Pizza and will definitely go again. We ordered the Buffalo Chicken and it was delicious! Ingredients tasted fresh. Love the soft crust, it has a very good flavor. And I like that it's a little different than the rest of the Pizza places around. read more

Always my favorite. They have gluten free pizza, I don't have a gluten allergy but it helps keep my blood sugars lower. But even the regular pizza crust doesn't raise my blood sugar as I'm a Type 1 Diabetic. The toppings, atmosphere, and people are all wonderful as well. Love it! read more

Great tasting pizza, one of the best in town! The staff was quick and friendly and washed down nicely with one of the local made Polly Pop, which they sell cold in house. read more

This place has pretty good pizza, but to me it seemed way overpriced. A couple of years ago I went in with a group of friends and we bought a Hawaiian pizza to share. My cost, although I only had one slice, was $8! Then, about a year later, a ordered a small gluten-free pizza with mushrooms and anchovies for carryout, and my cost was over $26! It was very tiny, too. Way too tiny to justify that price. I see now that you can order online, and their menu adds $5.00 to the small price for a 10" gluten-free crust. But their prices are still really high, even for non-gluten. Their small Supreme is $12.99, and their large Supreme is $20.99. That's a lot to ask for a pizza whose only special feature is that it's baked in a square pan. Like most places located on Independence Square, the Web menu says this one is only open from 11:30-8:00 Tues-Sun. However, they now offer chicken wings at 10 for $9.59, corn nuggets for $4.59, and cheese curds for $3.99. They also offer calzones and salads, along with a couple of the usual bread-based desserts. It'll probably take something special to bring me back, though, although I might consider it based on the corn nuggets and the cheese curds. read more

Best pizza ever nice and thick lots of toppings a lrg will feed a family it's so big my adult kids really enjoy picking up for family events

Square pizza has my vote for the best calzone in KC. Located on the square in Independence they have made to order calzones with a crispy crust and stuffed full of great ingredients. My favorite is beef, Canadian bacon, onions and mushroom. The kids love the square cheese pizzas. There is also a room for birthday parties if you want something that taste better than the usual kids pizza party. read more

When you walk in for the first time you feel like you are going back in time 30 years. If you are familiar with the Independence square then you will already know what to expect. It fits the old decor of the area. We ordered two small pizzas. They are larger than a personal pan, but not much bigger. For 2 small pizzas, bbq and chicken alfredo, and water to drink we paid $29. Definately pricier than some other places. The pizza isn't bad. Their crust seems freshly made and you can smell the yeast in the dough. The toppings were good, but on the bbq pizza the bacon was completely burnt. The chicken alfredo had cubed chicken, mushrooms, spinach and artichoke. It was good, but not as good as places like MOD. When I'm wanting pizza I will probably go elsewhere. If I happen to be on the square already, I would stop in occasionally. read more

Square Pizza is still top notch. I went there for a birthday party last night. The pizza ranks up there with other local establishments. I mean day-um. The service was great. But, they moved us from the main room (as we were eating our pizza) to the party room,and I thought the moving around was sloppy. I still like Square Pizza, still pay with cash there, and enjoy it. I bought a large pepperoni, and iced tea. I enjoy their pizza, but for some reason I can't get my family to eat there. It's really good. And the price is excellent. read more

Really high quality pizza and nice guys running it. I got the cauliflower crust and Greek salad. I also loved the local old-fashioned soda. Thank you! read more

If you like pizza (which I certainly do), but you want to try something just a little different; then I recommend you try this place. Not only do they have options you can't find elsewhere but also there is just something different about the way they cook them in those square pans. read more

Good pizza! I've only been there a couple times but it's one of my favorite pizza places so far. Quick service as well.

It started out as a great pizza place years ago but since Covid the business has gone way down hill. Staff has been rude and unfriendly. Pizza usually is good but at times it's not as warm as I would like. I won't go there until things change. read more

Love the pizza here it's a great original pizza place , nothing fancy , they do have a game room as well . The grandkids love going here , happy Littles = happy mawmaw ! read more

The employees had no idea about a menus. Either take out or online. The pizza tasted spoiled. Either the ham or sauce. We try to support local and this we keep coming back but it comes down to no pride in the business equals inconsistent food. Not going back. At one time was our favorite. read more

Bad. I at first thought I had ordered a cheese pizza instead of a big island. Then I found a couple of pieces of pineapple less Canadian bacon. Not much cheese. Soggy crust. Sad sad sad a frozen toneys is much better. 20 bucks, ha my dogs liked it read more

Wow!! What a gem of a place, in the middle of no where. Visiting Truman Library/museum?... eat at the pizza shop then walk a block down to Clinton's Soda Shop for dessert (or have a "Polly's Pop" at the pizza or soda shop). Pics attached. YUM!!!! Side salad was excellent and fresh! And bonus, attached game room for the younger ones ;-) read more

Vibe is really cool in the pizza place along with the twin; however, the pizza isn't that wonderful.

Went during lunch break the place wasn't busy. Just two of us went and ordered a large pizza and two drink, total came to 34$. Pizza wasn't that great and way over priced. read more

Amazing pizza. Small business that knows pizza!!! If you are looking for something other than chain pizza make this your first stop.

What can I say? This place was just pretty dang average. And no matter what shape in which you prepare an average pizza, it's still just average. I came in for lunch and had planned on getting a slice. Once I looked at their little spinning pizza display, I realized a slice of pizza was 1/4 of one of their squares, and WAY more expensive than 1/4 of a pizza. I threw caution to the wind and ordered a whole pie, anticipating leftovers. Well, there were leftovers, but I left them there. I ordered the BBQ chicken pizza, which I know isn't the most traditional, and maybe not the most fair on which to judge a place. But if it's on their menu, what can you do? I'm sitting here trying to think of how I would describe it, and all I keep coming up with is "blah", so why elaborate? The place gets points for being local and supporting what I suspect might be a struggling (or emerging?) retail district, but if I had to face the choice between this and Pizza Hut, I honestly don't know which way I'd go. That's not a good sign. read more

Square Pizza - 3/4 of a square pizza. - Pizza Near Me - Independence, Missouri

Overall good pizza! It actually reminds me of Godfather's and some Minsky's pizza I've had. I ordered a small with three-cheese and Italian sausage on one half. I can't say it is the best pizza I've had. In my opinion, the crust was a little airy and lacked unique bold favor. I actually would have given this place 3.5 stars but thought it deserves better than "okay". * The dining room was nice and clean when I was there * Decent pizza although the crust is lacking some bold favor * Cooked wonderful with plenty of golden brown melted cheese * Love the "stringy" cheese * Unfortunately it is a far drive from Olathe, Kansas read more

I have only had a calzone from this place, but if the pizza is anything like that calzone, I'll be coming back. If you're looking for a departure from the chain-style pizza joints, give this place a try. You'll love it. Note: the decor reminds me of the J.Geils Band "Freeze Frame" album cover. Good album. read more

I like pizza. I like any pizza really, and I get excited about thin crust pizza. BUT this thin crust is soft, doughy. Can't even pick a piece up to eat it. What the... Love the flavors of the cheese and toppings, though... And the ranch! read more

Square Pizza - Lots of cheese, doughy crust. - Pizza Near Me - Independence, Missouri

Ordered to go! Super friendly staff, wings are okay they have a lot of fat less meat, but the ranch is perfect. PIZZA IS SPECTACULAR! They messed up our first pizza, it had artichoke and olives when I asked for none, made it again, they gave us BOTH right order and wrong order so sweet! Husband ate the one with olives. We will come back for $5 unlimited play on the arcade for sure. So glad we went here instead of Tim's Pizza, since Tims only takes cash. read more

I'm just really not impressed with the man who comes out to deliver the food. I'm sure he's the owner but has a really big chip on his shoulder. He is so rude and seems like he's so annoyed to talk to people. I'll definitely not be buying from here anymore. I've been told about his attitude but who cares. I'll let 10 more people know not to go there. Customer service is atrocious! read more

Square pizza was pretty F'ING good! My family and I where part of a large party. Their back room can really hold a lot of people. Our orders came out quickly and accurately. The pizza was not at all what I expected. The crust was chewy and tender. The sauce was rich and flavorful. We had the six cheese pizza. And I don't know if it really had all six cheeses but the cheeses on this pizza where delicious. My family had other varieties and everyone was happy with their square pie. This seems to be a great place to bring your family and friends. We don't make it to this part of town very often but if we are - and we are in need of a square pizza, this will be the place we go. read more

Friendly, attentive employees? Yup. Locally owned? Yes, Sir. But NO COLD BEER? That's odd for a pizza joint! (I'm not a big drinker, but DO like cold beer with my hot pizza.) My pie was perfect, but my salad was (ick) mostly iceberg. Will give this place another chance next time I'm in K.C. (I hope to have a five star visit next time.) read more
