Three Pizza Places in Calgary You Need to Try

Cheese pulls and all

Now that we’ve covered the top places to get pizza in Edmonton, it’s Calgary’s turn! There are plenty of fantastic options to get your ‘za fix in YYC but these ones stand out from the crowd for their own unique reasons. There is one thing that makes them all similar—they all start the pizza process with a base made of Life’s Simple Ingredient, wheat! The pizza crust is just as important as the toppings, and these places take that seriously to create delicious pies for all tastes. Check out the list below and try them all!

Pulcinella

For authentic Napoletana pizza, Pulcinella is the place to be. This Kensington Italian spot uses authentic ingredients to craft pizza that’ll impress you and your friends. Pulcinella’s philosophy can be summed up in this quote: “In Naples, a good time means good food with good friends and good conversation. Hopefully, your friends are up to the conversation part. We’ve got the rest covered.” Treat yourself to a Tartufo Pizza Bianca – with fontina cheese, parmigiano, shaved black truffles and topped with an egg yolk, this is a delicious gourmet pie.

Nick’s Steakhouse & Pizza

Thick crust lovers will be satisfied at Nick’s Steakhouse & Pizza, that’s for sure! All pizzas include Nick’s homemade pizza sauce and dough and a secret blend of cheeses. As a YYC Pizza Week Winner in 2019, the Diavolo is a must-try. It features Calabrese pepperoni, Spolumbo’s sausage, red and green onions, chili peppers, cheese and sweet and spicy sauce. Order online or visit their northwest location!

 

Nikos Pizza

Get your phone out to record that cheese pull when you order from Nikos! Calgary’s top spot for Greek pizza and salads, Nikos definitely doesn’t skimp on the toppings. Try a classic cheese or spice it up with a premium pizza like the Zeus Chicken with baby spinach, tomatoes and feta. You can also choose to build your own pizza with your favourite toppings!
