Beggars Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Blue Island, Illinois

Service was ok, nothing to brag about. The counter workers spent more time on the phone(personal) than engaging with customers. The ambiance was dark and dated, however it's typical for a Chicago pizza joint. Now the food. What once was a great place to grab a slice and good quality pizza has sadden me. It was decent pizza, however it wasn't what I had hoped for. It lacked in various areas, namely the taste of the deep dish. The crust isn't the same and I feel as if they're trying to mirror Giodano's and failed. Sorry, not sorry!!!! Go back to the original recipe and stick to what made you a staple in the community read more

I've been coming to this location on and off for years. Today was my first time back after a long while of trying other pizzerias nearby. The pizza satisfied my craving, but it didn't knock my socks off. There wasn't enough pepperoni on it. Most squares only have one slice of pepperoni which is just not enough. Also the sauce needed something, it seemed to be a little bland. Also it seemed like the pizza was more cheesy in the past. It was just ok for me today. read more

Got a large thin crust with sausage, onion and green peppers. It was stacked with its ingredients and the dough was crisp without being too hard and held up well. It was quite delicious. I look forward to trying their deep dish sometime. read more

This pizza has been my favorite since I first tried it in the early '80s. They have the best combination of cheese and sauce, along with outstanding sausage. This place is where it all began. read more

I went to the location on Kedzie after bowling to get a slice of sausage and deep dish I was very impressed the way it tasted all the times I past by going home finally stopping in for a couple of slices I was very satisfied and will be back read more

Competitively priced pizza that is above average. I distinctly recall attending their youth sports banquets several years ago. The prices were very reasonable, and the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. read more

For starters the decor was nice and we'll update( Halloween themed). We were greeted and seated instantly which was amazing. Here's where it gets ruff..... For a large pizza we waited approximately 1 hour. Once the pizza arrived me and my family were excited and was once again instantly disappointed. The pizza was hard as rock however the cheese was cooked to perfection. On the plus side the waitress has great customer service and properly accomplished our requests in a timely manner. Key factors are the staff are respectful, short wait time to be seated, the scenery was nice. On the flip side the food was awful, takes forever for the food to be done, place was extremely cold. read more

Okay! This is a frustrating post because I feel like Beggars Pizza, specifically the one on Western in Blue Island, is so hit or miss. This is not the first time, but they give you the option of how you want your pizza cut and they do the opposite. Today's pizza is the worst one I've had yet. They had to take it back because it was cut in triangles instead of squares. When I tried it, the crust is just above raw, the sauce tastes very bitter, and the jardiniera, which is usually pretty finely chopped, was in huge chunks today. The redeeming part of the experience is that the girls who works at front counter are always super nice. I feel bad for them because they get to hear everybody's dissatisfaction when it has nothing to do with them. The pizza place is always crowded and it's a lively place to step into on a Friday night. I feel good about my son and his friends hanging out here after school or on the weekend and I love that they always have an officer either inside or close by. read more

Beggars Pizza - My terrible pizza - Pizza Near Me - Blue Island, Illinois

I grew up in the neighborhood and beggars pizza blue island was the original. They have fallen so far it's so sad. I came with 12 others and used the outside tables which were nice. Pizza slices were lukewarm. Service was slow. No wait staff it's all counter service. Many apps were not available. Prices were ok I guess. I hope other locations still have wait service. read more

I think Beggars is crap. The pizza is heavy with the thick toppings that they're known for but they use low quality ingredients and it's usually a mess. I don't order from here often because there's much better pizza than Beggars. If you are South go to Aurilios and get a good pizza. I don't like Beggars and can't recommend it no location is a good one. Now recently I've seen some very bad looking pizzas from Beggars. Some people actually like it. I'd say it's ok for kids or a crowd to feed. Just something to fill your stomach but be forewarned it's not a good pizza but they aren't advertising great pizza just thick ingredients. But it's low quality. Good luck read more

Beggars set the bar for me as far pizza goes. It's not even the pizza I grew up on. But, I tell you it's consistent. I'm a sucker for their deep dish while others in my family like their thin crust. Their burgers and turkey burgers are awesome. The loaded nachos are a meal in itself! The service is great and the ambiance is just right for date night, family night, any kind of night! read more

I use to love Beggers pizza I'm a truck driver, and my wife knew I was near Beggers in blue island so I picked a couple up, and I couldn't believe the disappointment the pizza definitely ain't the same, and especially for the price it taste just like a frozen pizza so that will be my last time going there!! Napoleon read more

Beggars has a decent product but I feel they put too much cheese which hides the flavor of the other toppings and I think the price are too high. For example, they do not have combination pizza so if you add the toppings it will cost you over $40.00 for a large pizza. read more

Beggars Pizza has the best pizza in Chicago. They really lay it on thick and delicious! A definite favorite!!

First complaint is the lack of professionalism, second is the lack of problem solving skills. I like this pizza but the service really chases me away. I often debate wether or not today the person taking my money woke up on the right side of the bed. I've only had OK experiences there has never been an instance in which they've gone above and beyond or even been apologetic. A computer generated response, how typical of this shit place. read more

Beggars Pizza - Fresh - Pizza Near Me - Blue Island, Illinois

Very disappointed long time customer! I picked up my order tonight and was told I could not use my beggars bucks and a coupon in the same transaction. Really?!? I earn beggars bucks for the money spent with you and that should have nothing to do with coupons from your calendar! Wow, that's just so petty of your company!! Thank goodness we now have Alex Pizza in town! read more

I patronize this Beggars all the time to pick up slices and today I was very disappointed. I don't eat meat so that is why I primarily get slices because everyone else in my household eats meat so it's a waste of money for me to get a whole pizza. Today I purchased the slice of the day which was veggie slice and two deep dish slices which contain meat and ask for the cheese and red pepper packets and was told they no longer give that out you have to pay for it. Now I have been to other Beggars like the one in Crestwood which I really love and have never experienced that. While standing there shaking away for each slice I saw a gentleman coming after me pick up his slices and ask for cheese and red pepper packets and was politely passed it with no problem and was not told what I was told and I questioned it and was told oh it's because he got four slices but I wasn't given that information but even so it shouldn't matter. So going forward I won't patronize this location. read more

I don't get real Chicago pizza to often as I've moved to Houston years ago. Man this thin crust pizza was so good and delicious. I couldn't stop eating it. The Blue Island location is much better than the location in Matteson. Can I say again how much I loved this pizza? The sausage was delicious and you cannot get this taste nowhere except in Chicago. I've tried pizza everywhere in Houston and they cannot duplicate that up north Italian sausage and sauce so when I come home this is like having a heavenly treat. Keep doing what you're doing Beggars! read more

Beggars claims to "lay it on thick" yet I received this pizza without toppings on the edges!! I was absolutely devastated to make it home with my takeout order only to see this!! Beggars has always been the go-to pizza parlor for my entire family for years but this encounter changed that FOREVER! When I called about the experience the manager was unapologetic and uninterested in correcting the wrong! I then posted on Facebook and tagged Beggars to further prove my point. After much back and forth dialogue on the post with the social media coordinator NOTHING has been done!! Ive filed an online complaint 3xs and no one has even bothered to respond via email or phone. I am certain the response online was solely to save face on social media but much like the original manager that took my complaint, service recovery is NOT important!! Don't waste your time or money at this establishment!! read more

ZERO STARS You can thank rude Alexis the manager on duty for this review. So this place is going down hill with customer service. So i purchased a large pizza half sausage and pepperoni, with the other half been double turkey sausage. So I get home and the order is completely wrong. Pepperoni on the turkey sausage side So I call back to the store to inform them of the error. This were things go wrong Alexis or Alexa who claimed to be the manager on duty informed me that you can bring the pizza back or I'll give you half back. I informed her I was back home and didn't think it was fair that I needed to do that. Offered you can have a new pizza delivered and you can pickup the wrong one. Then was told listen you can do what I said or that's it. So I asked for the general manager to give me a call. Alexa informed me you need to call him back tomorrow. I asked if he can call me she laughed and said you need to call back because "I CAN TELL YOU HE AINT GONNA CALL YOU." I have lived in the Beverly community for 30 plus years and this is a sign of the quality of employee you have especially being a manager. So sad guess I'll just place my future order with Home Run Inn on western read more

Beggars Pizza - a pizza in a box - Pizza Near Me - Blue Island, Illinois

Excellent pizza and always served hot and sausage covers all of the pizza. Their wings are good too.

This being my third attempt at ordering individual slices of pizza, I came in to order a couple quick individual slices of cheese pizza and when I was told it would take 30-35 minutes to prepare, so I decided that I would wait. After about 50 minutes I decided to check in and see how much longer for the pizza and the ticket for the individual slices hadn't been put in at all!! After wasting all that time waiting for nothing I was then deferred to ordering a smaller pizza instead of a slice which is not what I wanted. So after being there for an hour and a half I left unsatisfied and not likely to be returning anymore. S.N. On my previous attempts at ordering individual slices of pizza I came an hour before closing and immediately was turned around when I was told that they were finished for the night. read more

Excellent pizza my only favorite just don't use Grubhub for delivery they suck with service and attitude call store direct or pickup

We ordered $20 dollars worth of boneless wings which is supposed to be 1 pound, which after getting home to look is a complete and utter joke and failure on their part. I asked for extra wet and they're bone dry. They asked if I would like to add celery for $1.00 extra. Seriously?! And of course if you want ranch or bleu cheese to dip that's extra too. This location is a joke. Even when we order pizza, the cheese is like a brick. Normally this would be a great thing because they "lay it on thick" but it's not ooey gooey or anything, the cheese isn't melty or stringy, it ether has to be cut or it just pulls the toppings off all together. The competition right down the street (I mean Jet's) is so much better and the price point is on point with them. I hate boycotting places I want to like but this has happened too many times for this location. It's too big of a price to pay just for the convenience of being a couple blocks from our house. Simply not worth it... You've done us wrong for the last time bishes! read more

Beggars Pizza - Apparently, this is $9.00 worth of boneless wings to them. Never again! - Pizza Near Me - Blue Island, Illinois

Beggars is a typical Chicago pizza chain, similar to Giordano's, with one exception... to-go pizza slices. This one offering sets them apart, and is the only reason I visit. When I don't want to indulge in a full pie, I can count on them to have fresh slices of loaded cheese pizza available. This location is easily accessible from the expressway and has plenty of parking. read more

Some of the best pizza you will get in the city next to Giordanos! I usually fight back and forth over which is better. Their pizza comes in square slices and melt in your mouth. I usually get the sausage and cheese. The only knock on this place is the parking. The parking space is very small and can be hellacious to get out of at times. They have more locations throughout the south suburbs, but this is one of the oldest locations. If you are ever in the south burbs check this place out! read more
