Best New Jersey Pizza Spots
Megha Patel
Hi guys! I’m starting my NJ Food Series with my one and only true love… PIZZA. I’m not going to lie when I say this, but I’ve tried an INSANE amount of pizza in my day 😉 Even though a bad NJ slice is probably a phenomenal slice for other states, I have to narrow it down to my top favorites that I frequently visit. Please keep in mind that a lot of these places are obviously catered to areas that I live in or grew up around, but the good thing is that some of these places have more than one location 😊 If you ever find yourself at one of these places based on my recommendation, please tag me in an insta story so I can see! Would love to see what you ordered and what you thought of it!!
P.S. This happens to be very situational, but right now MORE THAN EVER, these restaurants and little hole in the wall places count on us to order for delivery or pick up. So I wanted to start sharing these posts even though we can’t physically eat at the restaurants. If you are tired of cooking, definitely order/pick up from one of these spots! Let’s get started!
