Pizza is always a great choice, whether you prefer thick crust or thin and crispy. Springfield, Missouri, has a variety of pizzerias—some long-established, others new to the scene—all dedicated to serving up delicious pies that keep us coming back for more! Let’s explore a few of the best pizza spots in Springfield!
The Big Slice
The name says it all, you can get quite possibly the biggest slice of pizza in the 417! What I love about going to The Big Slice is that you can either order a whole pizza or order by the slice. Plus, they have so many other great items that you can order with your pizza, such as pepperoni pinwheels, garlic knots, fried ravioli or even mozzarella sticks. Not in the mood for a slice of pizza? The Big Slice has options! You can also order wings, a stromboli or a tasty cheese-filled calzone.

Pizza House
Pizza House has been a Springfield staple since 1958. Serving that famous thin and crispy pizza pie that people know and enjoy. You can order 9” and 13” pizzas that are served sliced into perfect little squares! On a day when I am super hungry, I can put back one of those 13” pizzas and one of their tasty house salads like nobody’s business. A restaurant with a great atmosphere and friendly staff, there is no wonder Pizza House has been serving Springfield for almost 70 years!

Garbo’s Pizzeria
When you are on the hunt for St. Louis-inspired pizza, then Garbo’s has got your back. They have been serving some delicious thin and crispy pizza since 1990. What makes Garbo’s stand out amongst the rest is they use Provel cheese! It’s a mix of cheddar, Swiss, and provolone and elevates their pizza to the next level. But do not forget that you must make sure to order the Garbo’s famous house salad. It has Canadian bacon, bacon crumbles, mushrooms, red onions, black olives and their house-made dressing topped with Provel cheese. This salad can be a meal all by itself I love it that much!

McSalty’s Pizza Café
As a kid growing up in the Springfield area, one of the places we would always visit was McSalty’s Pizza. They have been serving up excellent pizza for 43 years in Springfield. The iconic restaurant location on Battlefield Road is famous for the Bear Pie, a mix of Canadian bacon and veggies, and the Fools Gold pizza that’s loaded with mozzarella, cheddar, and provolone cheese.

I was introduced to Neighborhood Pizza Café by some friends a few years ago. Walking in the restaurant and seeing all their awards from winning the pizza bowl let you know you’re in for some good food! My favorite pizza from their menu has got to be the Luau! It has BBQ sauce, garlic, chicken, bacon, Canadian bacon, five kinds of cheese, pineapple chunks and mandarin oranges on top. Finish it with a drizzle of BBQ sauce, and you are in pizza heaven. They also have a full menu of salads, pasta, sandwiches, calzones, and even nachos. You will never leave hungry when visiting Neighborhood Pizza Café!

As soon as you approach Adriano’s, the irresistible aroma of fresh pizza fills the air. Adriano’s hand-stretches their dough and bakes it in 900-degree ovens, serving up mouthwatering pies for Springfield’s pizza lovers. Try the Margherita, topped with San Marzano tomato sauce, parmesan, and basil—simple yet full of flavor. If you like it spicy, go for the spicy pepperoni, loaded with jalapenos and a drizzle of hot honey. Don’t forget dessert! Their Nutella pizza is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth.

One 2 Five Taproom
Take a little trip out towards Rogersville and you will find the One 2 Five Taproom serving some piping hot pizza. Each pizza is cracker crust thin, yet still pliable so that you can fold it like a New York slice. If you love a good veggie pizza, then you must order the Mother B. It is topped with pesto, olive oil, mozzarella, goat cheese, artichoke hearts, portobella mushrooms, fresh spinach and pickled red onions. Flavor is king at One 2 Five Taproom, so belly up to a table, order some beverages and enjoy some great pizza.
