The Best Pizza In Chicago Is At Pie Hole

Everyone likes something different. Ask 100 people is Chicago what their favorite pizza is and you would probably get 100 different answers! There is lots of great pizza in this town - I happen to really like PIE HOLE, in Boystown at 737 W. Roscoe. And I really like their clever marketing! The owner has created catchy phrases like "Where else can you get a large sausage at 2am?" and "From our hole to yours" and "Damn good toppings - and pretty good bottomings!"
BOI Magazine says, "Going home after the bars unsatisfied? Not to worry, there's another hole ready and waiting. How about a place with as many tasty tops as delectable bottoms? Where you can grab a tossed salad and a warm pie all to yourself or to share! No, I'm not referring to local bathhouse, change it up a bit, try Pie Hole. It's the trendy Boystown pizza den we all know and love with a new owner and new tricks up it's sleeve.
Steps from the Halsted strip and open till the wee hours of 3am on weekdays, 6am on weekends, Pie Hole's my no fuss choice after a long night of rejection. What kind of deliciousness would I be crying into the evening of my food review? I'd start off with a piece of the Picatta Pie, slathered in white alfredo sauce, chicken, capers, and artichoke hearts. It's amazing how fast you can slam down one of their huge flavorful slices when you haven't been laid in months. I'd follow up the dainty dish with a little kick of red pesto, spicy Italian sausage, pepper jack cheese, banana peppers, and carmelized onions complements of Pie Hole's "fire in the hole" pizza. How much more could I have possibly ate, you ask? I'm in the business of eating my feelings and I had a sweet to satisfy. I had no problem cramming a little sugar in the hole with serving of the fruity booty pizza piemmmhey, don't judge!"
So what makes this pizza so different? Owner Doug Brandt says, "First off, the dough is made from a special recipe exclusive to Pie Hole and our sauce doesn't come from a can, it's made and cooked here in the kitchen. We really do strive to use the highest quality and freshest ingredients."
What I like is the fact you can create your own custom slices! (*not available during peak times, sorry). And the staff is always fun and friendly. Plus Doug does a great job of blending humor and fun with pizza. Tuesdays you can have your pizza delivered by drag queen! and Wednesdays are "all you can shove in your hole" for $9.99!
