Huge portions, fresh ingredients, and awesome beer. It can get crowded on the weekends, but that is understandable. I would recommend going on a weeknight or if you go on the weekend, give yourself plenty of time to hang out at the bar and try a few beers while you wait for a table. The staff was friendly and attentive, and even though you could tell our server was very busy, she made time to stop and chat/give us a couple suggestions. I will definitely be back!
Pros: LOVE their thin crust
Cons: none

We'd never tried New Haven-style pizza before, and we weren't disappointed with the quality. A small red with clams and spinach was more than enough for two. Now, I am not a picky person when it comes to service. When the hostess told us it would be a 25 minute wait when it was closer to an hour, I understood that it was Championship Sunday. However, the hostess inexplicably called two groups who were further down the list (each with 2-3 people who didn't have reservations--same as our group) before us. This happened although we were standing no more than three feet away from the hostess the entire wait. After we were skipped over the second time I approached the hostess, who asked "have you been helped yet?" I noticed the wait list and that every group called before us (and after us) was clearly blacked out, so there was little chance the hostess simply made a mistake. When I pointed out that we were actually next, she made no apology. After being seated about 15 minutes later, the waiter was very pleasant, and we eventually got our pizza. Again, the pizza was very good: the red sauce is not overwhelming; the clams/spinach combo worked well and the thin crust was perfect. However, the hostess' random sub-mediocrity just about ruined an otherwise good pizza experience. I understand that hostesses get busy, but really, they only have one job: call the next name, count the menus and guide customers to a specific table. At least one Piece hostess cannot perform that job.
Pros: crust, variety of toppings, unique New Haven style
Cons: Hostess may arbitrarily skip you

John S must be from another planet. Piece beer is the best beer I've ever had. I am a pale ale and IPA fan. I've had every kind of IPA I've ever seen. I was just out to San Fran a few weeks ago and the best IPAs I had there were a solid second place to Piece's. I have yet to be disappointed with one of their beers. Truthfully every IPA I've had there is better then any other IPA I've ever had out of a bottle.

Overpriced, no cheese, hard crust. NO WAY IN HELL REPRESENTS CHICAGO PIZZA!!!
Lived in Chicago for over 24 years and was very disapointed after several recommendations from friends.
I would rather grab a frozen pizza from dominicks.
If you have ever had market day pizza, it resembles.

A slightly edgy restaurant that offers a piece of many things: pizza, a local bar, micro-brews, sports, art and entertainment. Try ordering two small pizzas -- a staple you know you'll like and something daring. Everytime I've done this in a group, most people have preferred the unique creation. The choices of crusts and toppings create an everlasting set of options. Likewise, the bar itself seems like an almost different place at different times. In the afternoon, it's just a local pizza place with a bar to one side. During sporting events, it's packed with fans who can see TVs thoughout half the large open main room. On a Friday or Saturday, it's a 20 to 30-something hang-out for people who refuse to completely become part of the establishment. In short, it's a fantastic place with great pizza and wonderful selection of brews. Try it!
Pros: Great, unique pizza; good selection of microbrews, great atmosphere
Cons: Long waits during peak weekend hours

This is my favorite place to go in Chicago for East Coast style pizza. The selection of Microbrewed beer is great too. Try the Worrying Ale if they have it on tap.

This is my favorite place to go in Chicago for East Coast style pizza. The selection of Microbrewed beer is great too. Try the Worrying Ale if they have it on tap.
Gets very busy on weekends though, so prepare for a wait, but there is plenty to do in the surrounding neighborhood.
Pros: Great pizza if you like thin crust. Great Microbrews.
Cons: Microbrews on the pricey side.

While I'm not a fan of the loud sports-bar atmosphere, the pizza is excellent. It can be hard to find a great thin-crust pizza in Chicago and this is it. Hand-tossed crust, fresh generous sauce, good toppings. The kicker is that if it's your birthday, they'll bring you some massive chocolate desserts without even asking for them. At least they did for us. Good stuff.

Modeled after a pizza joint in New Haven, CT, Piece beings it's unique pizza style to Wicker Park. You choose sauce and cheese options and add topping which range from traditional to artisanal to down right weird. They have lots of micro-brews to choose from, including their own, at reasonable prices. Lots of tvs make for fun sports watching but a loud bar area. The front windows open wide to make this a great early summer or early fall spot for sure.
PROS: great food, hard to find beers
CONS: can get loud, long wait at times
