Pizza and college are pretty much synonymous, who could imagine one without the other? Whether you’re ordering takeout to the library or grabbing a late-night slice after a night out, these are some of the best places around Pitt to satisfy your pizza cravings.
Sorrento’s Pizza Roma
233 Atwood St.

Located right in the heart of Oakland, this campus favorite is a classic weekend meeting place– and it’s easy to see why. Their super-cheesy thin crust pizza is well worth the line, which goes out the door on busy weekends. Here is a link to their website.

Mon-Weds 11AM – 2AM
Thurs-Sat 11AM – 3 AM
Sun 11AM – 11PM
This place can be found on the same block as Sorrento’s– Pitt student’s love to take sides on which is better. Antoon’s has a much smaller venue, but pizzas are often hot and ready for take out once you walk in the door. You can find Antoon’s here on Yelp.

A convenient sit-down location right off of Forbes Ave, only a five-minute walk from campus. These thin crust pizzas are fired in a brick oven, and feature a few fun twists on the old classic — try the “flying buffalo” or the “smashed potato pizza”. Here is their website.
