Beggars Pizza

When we want a pizza outside of Ed and Joe’s, Beggars is next in line for a very good pizza. Their salad is also very good. The cheese put on this pizza could bring your cholesterol level up and away but it is delish. The pizza is not as thin as some of the other pizza’s that we have had but the taste of this pizza is very good.

My review is based solely upon their pizza. They serve the best thin crust pie in the Chicago area.

Just what I was looking for. Great pizza, they definitely don’t skimp on the cheese! Garlic cheese bread was also delightful. Staff was very pleasant. Will definitely come back when in the Chicago area.

After a yen for a chicken pizza led me to the TRAVESTY that is Wooden Paddle Pizza a few weeks ago, I figured I’d give ANOTHER neighborhood spot a shot. Couldn’t be happier that I did. Pretty generous toppings on a decent crust, what more could you ask for? Even the teenyboppers behind he counter were polite and professional (good pizza makes EVERYTHING seem better, doesn’t it?).

Wow! I wish they had Beggars Pizza in the NW surburbs. We stopped by to get a large cheese pizza while in the area. I love this pizza. It has lots of flavor and it is very cheesy. Yum! The large size pizza was a little smaller than expected, but it is excellent! Come north and sponsor the Cubbies too! :P

On the way to the Jimmy Buffett concert we decided to stop for a pizza and we’re glad we stopped here. To start off the place was spotlessly clean… a terrific first impression, secondly we were greeted by Jackie with a big smile and a welcome. Soon we had our drinks and mozzarella sticks… everything was great with the exception of the Mecum car auction being shown on a TV not viewable from our table. What happened next was Super Jackie sprang into action and had the manager change the channel to accommodate my request. It only got better from there… the pizza was excellent… service was great and even signed up for their rewards program to boot. We will gladly return!

Not good. Stopped in for a slice for lunch 30 minutes after they opened and I swear they heated up old pizza from last night. It’s the only thing that can explain why pizza that was only put out 20 minutes ago was dried out and tasteless. Do yourself a favor… If you’re in the mood for Beggar’s, get it from another location.

Pizza was better than expected. Went in to try the deep dish slices but got there after 3 pm and apparently 3 pm is the end of single deep dish slices. Traveling alone so didn’t need a small pizza to myself. Opted for the thin crust sausage slice. Very good flavors. Good amount of cheese and sausage topping. I would love to go back one day to try the deep dish.

Wow!!! Amazing unbelievable phenomenal superior are a few adjective to describe this awesome place!!! My wife and 2 boys just got hear from NorCal. Having never had Chicago style pizza/​pie excellent excellent product

Always love a Beggars Pizza whether we order one or I stop in for a quick slice.

So I walk in to pick up a pizza and find myself talking to some high school kids that work there. Apparently Rick and Sandy just broke up because Sandy cheated on Rick with Matt. I wasn’t ready for all this gossip so I stepped outside for a breath of fresh air while still waiting for my pizza.
I walk in the second time and Rick gave me my pizza and told me to have a great day! Although the gossip was lame and the kids suck that work here. The pizza was ok… I like pizza hut better!!! Staff is all stuck up and think they are big dawgs or something.
Although I don’t like this place its convenient since I live at the super 8 motel next door.
Go for the gossip not the food.

Delicious pizza… ridiculously HIGH price. $ 31 for ONE family sized pizza… crazy…only order on payday!!! :-)

Being from Phoenix, we don’t usually do deep dish or Chicago thin crust. I have to say, Beggar’s was one of the best I’ve had in both categories. It’s also a great place to relax and watch the Hawks while having a cold beer from their nice selection of brews. I will go back if I’m ever in the area.

Beggars more like cheggars there is way to much salt on my pizz not enough spicy ranch dressing and the side dip tasted like my great grandpas face it’s disgusting then I saw this guy in there that smelled like a hobo rubbed on him then he pooped his pants! EW! Then the worst part was at the counter was my step dad garret! EWW!

Excellent pizza, wings not so much. Seating decent for the location. Loyal to the community and accommodating for teams.

We Lay it on THICK! — - — Their tag-​line says it all.
Beggars is one of my favorite thing crust pizza options because they simply pile on the toppings. Most places try to skimp out on the topping to save money but not at Beggars.
I’ve never actually eaten here so I can’t speak to their atmosphere, but I can tell you that their pizza is awesome!

For some reason, the pizza made at this location doesn’t compare to the plethora of pizzas that my family has gotten from the OF location, but it’s still lives up to the Beggar’s name.

My husband and I have been fans of Beggar’s thin crust and gluten free pizza for a long time now. Last month we hired them to cater a large party for us. We received so many compliments on the food! It was a huge hit. We ordered over $ 700 in food: lasagnas, baked most, garlic bread, sausage, Italian beef, and family size pizzas. The portions were bigger than advertised and they even gave us a lot of extra garlic bread for free. The order was delivered on time and very hot, and the delivery guy helped us set up. (They don’t charge for set up, and delivery is only $ 3 no matter how huge the order!). I have zero complaints about this location. Thanks again– you guys made our party a huge hit!!!

I’m not 100% sure this is 5 stars all the time. It was 5 stars for me though. We ordered a sausage, garlic, spinach and extra mushroom thin crust the other night. It was amazing! I can’t believe I have never been to this location. This is definitely one of my main pizza places now. They put so much cheese on it. Love it.
They get extra points for being friendly when I walked in to pick up. We ordered it really late and I actually didn’t even get there until a few minutes after closing time. The staff was still really nice and helpful.

I have a Beggars Pizza near me in Alsip that I usually order pizza from. This location is near my work, so of course, the boyfriend and I decided to go here for lunch. I’d heard from coworkers that they have a lunch buffet and thought we’d find some vegetarian options since we do not eat meat.
I was wrong about that. They had a half pizza of cheese up there and we’d probably have fought each for the whole half to ourselves. So we sat and just ordered a pizza of our own. I should add the buffet was really, really small.
But so we got a thin crust (I was on lunch and didn’t have time to wait for deep dish) with giardiniera and mushrooms. The waitress said it’d take less time because they weren’t busy. But it took almost exactly 30 minutes.
Oh well, we ate fast and asked for boxes and the check while we were still eating. The waitress took 15 minutes to bring the check over, so we were a little annoyed about our experience. Overall the pizza was good and we’d probably avoid here for lunch time (unless we order in advance).
