The Morgantown Pizza Tour

23 Pizzerias Reviewed Slice by Slice

I’m ordering the same pie at each stop: half-cheese, half pepperoni, mushroom, and onion. This combo gives me a taste of each signature sauce, melt, and topping quality. This tour will highlight the best crusts, toppings, sauces, and of course, ranch dressing.

My top 3 are listed in order of my favorites so far, with the #1 spot being blank until I can rank a true winner at the end of the year! The rest of the pizzerias are generally listed. Since I’ve lived in Morgantown, WV, I’ve visited many before, but most are new to me. If I have eaten at a location but not ordered the regulation half-cheese / half pepperoni, mushroom, and onion order, I will review and place as-is for the sake of timing, but will revisit.

*Note - there is a secondary list underneath this one of places I still need to visit. Those will be added to the list as I taste test.

nonno carlo margarita pizza

#2. Nonno Carlo

1016 Suncrest Town Center Dr,
Morgantown, WV 26505

  • Crust: brick-fired

    Marinara: everything DOP

    Toppings: fresh af, house-mozz

    Ranch: you don’t get that here

  • It’s something about a simple sauce that the fresh mozzarella and basil melt into, folded between a brick oven-fired, bready crust. Gotta eat it fresh, though.

Crab Rangoon Specialty Pizza

#3. Homegrown Pizza

3429 Earl L Core Rd,
Morgantown, WV 26508

  • Crust: too uniform? a perfect circle

    Marinara: haven’t tried it yet lol

    Toppings: unique and generous

    Ranch: did not order as a side

  • I remember getting a regular pizza with the rangoon special in 2019 when I first moved here. I never got a non-special pizza from Homegrown since. This is marked to try again!

spent grain pizza at screech owl brewing

Screech Owl

2323 Ralph Livengood Rd,
Bruceton Mills, WV 26525

  • Crust: made from spent beer grain!

    Marinara: smothered in cheese

    Toppings: better be a cheese lover

    Ranch: did not order as a side

  • I love the people, I love the place, I love the story, I love their pizza (and the beer).

Picasso Pizza

1370 University Ave
Morgantown, WV 26505

  • Crust: thin, crispy, classically dusted with cornmeal

    Marinara: classic red sauce

    Toppings: underneath the cheese!

    Ranch: between Picasso and 2G Bros, top 2 - will get one with every pie!

  • Good pizza, albeit a little pricey for the college-town location. Toppings are delicious and sauces, dips and breads are all homemade.

cAFE oLIVERIO

200 Fort Pierpont Dr Ste 112,
Morgantown, WV 26508

  • Crust: extra, extra thin

    Marinara: overshadowed by cheese

    Toppings: great pepperoni fr

    Ranch: no ranch, can get alfredo, though

  • If you want thin crust and brick-fired, this is it. I think a couple more minutes in the oven would do it justice, there are heavy of toppings to hold up!

pizzas from pies and pints morgantown

Pies and PInts

1002 Suncrest Town Centre Dr,
Morgantown, WV 26505

  • Crust: strong and holds toppings well

    Marinara: haven’t tried a normal pie

    Toppings: quality and tasty

    Ranch: you don’t get that here

  • I have heard from multiple sources that you’ll get super uneven toppings when you order at the Morgantown locations. When I anonymously order, I can say the same.

pizza from 2g bros in morgantown

2G Brothers Pizza

23 Cheat Landing
Morgantown, WV 26508

  • Crust: thin crust

    Marinara: on the sweeter side, good

    Toppings: decent

    Ranch: outstanding flavor!

  • Nice consistency for a thin crust, not soggy even after travel. This is a place you order from for a big party that needs a bunch of pizzas in bulk.

pizza from colasantes morgantown

Colasante’s

416 Fairmont Rd,
Morgantown, WV 26501

  • Crust: floppy under the toppings

    Marinara: classic style

    Toppings: piled high

    Ranch: House-made, but too watery

  • Cheese side was better. Less is more, here. Both times I went, I felt like the crust needed more time in the oven before they topped it with everything. A larger pie might have better results.

BEST RANCH ON THE SIDE:
