Homeslice isn’t reinventing the wheel. It’s a simple spot with all the makings of a great pizza joint, and an even better place to hang with friends. But what makes Homeslice (as well as its sister restaurant, Happy Camper) such a crowd pleaser is the atmosphere - these guys know how to create an impressive space. At Homeslice, that space involves an excellent patio, comfortable couches and tables big enough for large groups, and catchy signs like “Be Awesome” or “I could give up pizza, but I’m not a quitter.”
There are a ton of pizza options, including the option to make your own. There are enough appetizers like bread sticks or jalapeño poppers to get things rolling. And there are some salads too, because even though ordering salad at a pizza restaurant is stupid, it’ll help justify everything else you’re about to eat.
In a town that likes to argue about pizza, nobody is arguing over Homeslice. It’s not divisive like deep dish or thin crust - Homeslice is just regular, quality pizza, served in a great space.
Where would be without pizza? Who knows, but that’s why we’re glad places like Homeslice make it so we never have to find out.
