New York, Chicago, both places known worldwide for their pizza. But smack in the middle of both is Michigan, where the pizza more than holds its own. Detroit put the deep square pizza on the map. National pizza chains like Little Caesar’s and Domino’s both got their starts in Michigan. And tucked in cities across the state are flavor combinations that can’t be found anywhere else in the country, and that’s just the way we like it. Here, we’ve selected some of the most beloved pizzerias across the Mitten State for your drooling pleasure.
What started as an Italian immigrant-owned bar in the 1960s, has since evolved into a Lansing pizza legend, with unorthodox flavors like baked potato pizza.
If you like it HOT, we dare you to try a slice of this Bengali-inspired ghost pepper pizza. Other spicy favorites include the aptly-named spice, naga or tandoori pizzas.
If you're from the Detroit area, you're well aware of the decades-long rivalry between Buddy's and this Hazel Park establishment. Loui's is a serious contender for best Detroit-style square pizza. We'll let you decide which reigns supreme.
The secret's in the dough at T. Dub's, which gets its unique blend sent over from Maine several times a week. Pictured here, its famous Harbormaster pie.
Tossed in a wood-fire oven, this adventurous traditional Italian-style pie regularly tops any pizza lover's lists.
Now that you have a few ideas, go sample some delicious Michigan pizza. If you’ve got some favorites that we left off, please share, the more the yummier 🙂
