35 Best Pizza Restaurants near Essex Junction

“Stepping out from behind the bar, Zach filled his role as our Server to perfection. Friendly, informed, attentive and polite, our first dinning experience at Bramble was fantastic! Friends had recommended we add Bramble to our list of options and we're so glad we did. Food was excellent, wine and spirits offered interesting options... Pistols and Pesos was killer! We'll definitely be back. Thanks Zach and the whole team at Bramble for a nice dining experience....something we need more of in the area“

“I ordered 2 medium pepperoni pizzas. I’ve NEVER got a basic pepperoni pizza with this much pepperoni! It was a beautiful thing to see not one BUT two pizzas cooked to perfection with a decent amount of its topping! I always get fast delivery as well and the one time it was expected to be late I received a call stating there was a possibility of a late delivery-it arrived on time. 😊 5 Stars to the Essex Location.“

“We had the mobile pizza oven, antipasti boards, appetizers and dessert served at our wedding this fall.

Sara was professional, responsive and easy to work with. She ensured that all our requests were heard and accounted for. She answered all of our many questions promptly and thoroughly throughout the year leading up to the wedding.

At the wedding, the food was delicious: our gluten free and vegan guests were very happy, and the buffet ran smoothly without any wait for our hungry guests.

Highly recommend for a wedding or any event!“

“This is definitely the BPOE. Best Pizza On Earth. Our server Orson was a real friendly feller. I got the Power to the People Pizza and more than loved it. Eating here was ecstasy. Buffalo sauce drenched chicken jumbled with tomato sauce and blue cheese, and a delicious crust, dipped in zesty ranch. Heavenly.“

“Awesome crust! They always excel!“

“This is the second time I've eaten at one of these pizza places and it's been very good. Not your traditional Pizza, more artisanal Pizza, but enjoyed it greatly. I can see this place getting busy in the summer where the outside dining and beer garden. It's perfect for the small town and I'm sure they get a lot of business. My understanding is there's one of these and a lot of us small towns around here and they've really figured out a good way to market it. I could see myself going back to this place several times. Not the best pizza I've ever had but it's a great place to hang out with people.“

“Five stars, and I don't say that lightly to a sandwich.

The pastrami was stacked with confidence. Sun-dried tomato mayo did the quiet, competent thing mayo should do. Chili oil coleslaw showed up like it had something to prove and proved it. I finished the whole thing and immediately started grieving that it was over.

The place is busy, and cannot make sandwiches fast enough for the people who want them. They were sold out of most of them, which is either bad inventory planning or a very effective marketing strategy. I choose to believe the latter.

Service felt less like a transaction and more like being heckled affectionately by someone who's genuinely happy you showed up. Ten minutes in and I was fairly certain we'd known each other in a past life.

Go early. Go hungry. Go before they run out and ruin your week.“

“Matt and I have been to Hoagies in Essex a few times as of late and have had the best experience. The servers are amazing, the quality of food is consistent and tasty and we always feel welcome. If you’re wanting quick, yummy eats look no further. Treat yourself to the house Italian dressing. It’s been my favorite since I was a little kid in the 90’s!“

“The food, wine, latte, and cannoli were fabulous! Lexi provided exceptional service — her menu suggestions and insights were spot on. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Loyal Zachs customers here, an easy go-to! ❤️“

“I’m here to say, that I had the best sub/grinder, that I’ve ever had. They have their special sandwiches, but they also have build your own grinders/
subs. Their rolls are so fresh, and they really pile that meat, and veggies on. Their Italian dressing is amazing.
They also have a great selection. My family can all get what we like.
Everything that was hot, stayed hot, as we ordered for delivery
I highly recommend Three Brothers Pizza and Grill“

“Absolutely delicious!!! From appetizer selection to entre. Every special occasion and family group eat outs here from now on.“

“Get the homemade spinach artichoke dip. You won’t be sorry!“

“Delicious food, friendly staff, affordable prices. Our family’s go to is the pesto pizza (My kids call it the green flavor). I’ve yet to order via phone and come in 15/20 minutes and not had our food ready to go.

Can’t speak for atmosphere because we’ve never dined in. Only downfall for Mr.Mikes is that parking in that parking sucks so n that area“

“I stopped in and had a small Zack special pizza. The food was good. The building was a little echoy. Looks like they were going some remodeling . I would go again.“

“This was last week: My family decided to get some pizza at Folino’s after going to City Market. Because after getting some healthy things, we were down for some bad decisions. Folino’s Pizza next to a dispensary which honestly was probably their best move possible. The place was PACKED like sardines. (Which I had on pizza once and never again…. Why don’t we ever argue this? Why do people actually argue to the death about pineapple on pizza and NOT HAIRY FISH??? Why are we so divided on this?!) The menu was pretty interesting and easy to follow and we picked two pizzas and wings…. We sat down…. After we paid….. after we tipped, before service was done. I would soon be able to conclude why. You can literally pick a seat anywhere and get a nice glass of water from cups that had seen better days and worse mouths. Next to the garbages…. Next to where you pick your silverware…. My son helped her restock the water. Totally fine. And then we saw…. The utensil/sauce station. Well…. It was PACKED. Garlic, parmesan, salt, pepper, hot sauce, pepper flakes. Some empty, others at various stages of full and honestly take your pick. We got one of each. Went through silverware and it was like a treasure hunt! Some had old food and stains on them and I got to see what popular picks were at this place:-) I think we made the right picks!!! While I like leftovers at home, these were not the leftovers I had a hankering for… decided to pick else wear and found some that were clean clean. Again this place is packed! Line going out the door( to be fair there may have been a few who got mixed up with the Jazz Lettuce place next door). The food sounded/smelled so delicious. We were already hungry and down for some wildfire awesomeness…. And now, we wait….. and wait…. And wait some more. Did…. Did they forget about us? I see some people eating, some people who look famished and well we decided to shoot our shot and ask people how long they had been waiting/if they ordered. Yes. Just yes. The line is moving and fast. I went to their website to see if it was like Disney with the fast passes or something… I can’t even begin to tell you how bummed I am writing that “no” here. After like an hour the wings came out. And I swear to God, with seasoning wings, these kids understood the assignment. However taking a bit of the wing, the chicken fought back. The chicken skin was….. oh God, a good vet could have saved it... a while later, the Buff Chick came out and oh sweet mother of God those candied jalapeños are just the bees knees…then they bought out The Vegan Supreme…. No onions…. And she made a point to say, no onions…. So I knew immediately, there was onions somewhere… which is just fine. My mouth just tingles and gets kinda itchy. Aside from that lil fun fact about me….. those pizzas were amazing and the crust is just what you’d want. And despite a crowded kitchen with no hair nets and loose styles everywhere, there was little to no hair in the food! The pizza is definitely worth buying just not the wait unless you have the afternoon and no perishable groceries in your car (City Market) to waste…. My guess with the line out the door, they preordered online within a couple hours getting there. My husband loved that we tipped to have the home experience and got to not only wait on ourselves and clean up after our selves, he also loved that he was able to clean the table off from the previous people and the bundle of pizza tray holders from them as well. My son loved that he found a wing order he didn’t want to touch at all. If you have an afternoon to waste by the water cooler and tables with an awesome pizza sheen on it… get here faster then they open. You won’t be disappointed with disappointment. Buttttt, (and this is a big but here) if you want some awesome pizza with awesome flavor and amazing crust, definitely get it here. Just order online. Get all your chores and shopping done… maybe make time for a movie. After all that, it might be ready and you too can be in the line out the door…. Looking at all the people in the dining area like you dodg“

“Great pizza and friendly staff. The outdoor dinning is perfect. I think number one pizza in all of Vermont. 😊“

“New York Pizza Oven was a great choice while visiting Colchester/Burlington for the 2022 UVM graduation!“

“Fresh, tasty, and authentic! Thanks Carlo and the crew for a great lunch and dinner. We had a fresh salad and tasty garlic bites in their awesome restaurant, then took home 2 great pizzas for dinner later that evening. All our ingredients were fresh, and well seasoned, ricotta to die for! We got a mickster and a prosciutto pie and, can’t wait to go back and try more!“

“The pizza is so good here. I can’t wait to try their other menu items.“

“My friend and I went for dinner… we started with the poutine, and it was excellent! My friend had the pepperoni pizza and I had the bacon avocado burger with onion rings. Both entrées were amazing! Also, we really enjoyed the margaritas. They were very fresh tasting! Everything we had was fresh and delicious. I would definitely recommend and we will definitely be going back again!“

“I had their pizza and garlic knots and the oh-so-tasty marinara a few years ago and I absolutely hope to visit again someday! would love like a gallon of that marinara!! so good!“

“I ordered the Meat Lovers Revenge, it was absolutely delicious! I was traveling through back to Texas and staying overnight for an early flight. Wanted to try something I haven't had before, and I was not disappointed. Service was quick and courteous. If I'm ever back in the area, I will certainly order again!“

“It was an absolutely pleasurable experience. Some of the best pizza that I have had in a long time. Great environment, great service, will definitely go back. Highly suggest it to anyone looking to get out for an evening for good times and good vibes! 10/10“

“My family has been coming here for years. Both my girls worked here and we have always appreciated the level of consistency that Mimmo's food offers. Always fresh, hot and delicious entrees and salads. Most recently I have been sitting at the bar while I wait for my take out order and have had the lovely privilege of being waited on by Simone's partner. She is a fireball with the best customer service skills I have encountered in Vermont or anywhere! Everything she does is to make the customer feel attended to and she does it with the most energetic and positive effort! Mimmo's never disappoints!“

“Some of the best pizza in chittenden that you can order by slice. There are tables but its small, could use a little updating but on the verge of nostalgic old school pizza if thats what you are digging for. Short distance from parking to entry, zero stairs. Typically there is seating while you wait.“

“Been going here forever, my kid’s favorite. Lots of toppings to choose from. Over the years they keep adding vegan options or you can make your own. Their signature pizzas are amazing - Vegan Salvation is my go to. Updated from previous review on 2026-07-18“

“New place, looks great, and food is awesome!!“

“Best Italian in Colchester area“

“On a road trip from out of state, googled some options and was recommended Jrs from another restaurant that was reservations only tonight; so very happy that’s how it worked out! We called ahead to make sure they had openings and the girl I talked to was very friendly. Upon arrival though they mentioned they don’t take reservations they had a table for 5 ready for us. Coming from out of state with 3 kids of different ages there were a lot of questions about the menu and our waitress Lexi was patient and kind; speaking with them directly and making sure to answer all questions. Drinks were refilled without asking, extra napkins supplied, she kept an eye out and checked in regularly. The food was fantastic as well, but Lexi was superb!“

“We order take out every once in a while from Zachary's, and it's always delicious. What gets us to go to the Milton location and get food, hang out, and order drinks, though, is the monthly stand up comedy they host. The stand up routines are funny, and we really look forward to going!“

“I love Burlington dominoes because they know how they do it the one on the left is Burlington Domino’s chicken the one on the right is Plattsburgh’s chicken I ordered you tell me how you want your meal messed up or neatly!“

“After recently moving back to Vermont, I order from this specific Domino’s Pizza as it used to be my go to. Come to find a nice surprise to see Justin back at this location again. I used to go to this specific Dominos just because of Justin’s customer service. He always greets customers with a big smile and is always courteous. It’s rare to find someone who takes such pride in their work and goes the extra mile to make sure customers are satisfied. Thank you Justin!“

“LC consistently the same for the last 40 years. no matter which location you go. A pizza staple in low cost pies. there are a lot better pizza joints. A few in Vermont. but for the right price and simple taste this place wins when thats what you are looking for. Glad its there. Now we need one in Montpelier.“
