Looking for the best pizza in town? Look no further. We had a fairly large group that they were able to accommodate despite being fully booked that evening. Our waiter was super nice and kept our drinks refilled without asking. Our order came out fairly quickly. The pizzas and cheesy bread were delicious, as always! Pizza here is always consistently good. I never have to worry about how the pizza will be. They also have a few slots machines if you feel like trying your luck while waiting on your order.

Best pizza in town. Used to Gabatonis bur B&B have the crown now. I usually use pick up. Friendly service. Fair price for quality.

Bernie & Betty's is one of those hidden gems that feels like a side quest leading to the best pizza you've ever had. I've lived in Chicago and tried all the famous spots, but this place beats them all. I don't know who Bernie and Betty were, but they must have been obsessed with perfecting pizza because their crispy, crunchy crust is absolutely to die for. In my opinion, this is Springfield's top pizza spot--just go, order anything, and be grateful you live on the same planet as this heavenly pizza. read more

One of my favorite pizza spots! And, if you don't want pizza, many other choices. One of my favorites is the seafood pasta salad!

It had been a while since we had eaten here. Pizza was great! If you look at the reviews all the newer ones are good. Too bad reviews don't expire after a few years. They have made a great come back. read more

The food was amazing! I can't believe I've waited so long to go there! Our server was Morgan, and she was friendly and very helpful! read more

Bernie & Betty's Pizza - Pizza the way it's SUPPOSED to taste! - Pizza Near Me - Springfield, Illinois

If you get food to go please check it before you leave, mine has been wrong several times.

The pizza, spaghetti, salads and drinks are unsurpassed. They have a solid menu and the quality of the food is always excellent.

Food took a long time to make, but it was mid food taste. There is a laid who looked like a sheep

Friday night in Lent and not in the mood for a fish fry? We tried the ultra cheese pizza on sourdough crust, and it was amazing. The cheeses had a hint of sweetness that contrasted well with the tang of the crust, and you'll want the thicker crust to support the weight of the cheeses. Definitely going to add this to our Lenten options. read more

Bernie and Betty's is a staple in the field and for good reason. Whoever gives this place anything less than a 4/5 had a lapse in judgement and had a one off experience. We ordered: Jalapeño Poppers 8/10 Potato Skins 6.5/10 (didn't have a whole lot of flavor) Pepperoni Thin Crust 8/10 Sausage & Bacon Sourdough 8/10 All meats sourdough 9/10 (my personal pizza) First off allow me to preface that our waitress was super nice. Never caught her name but she was lovely and very attentive! Second, we didn't come to try appetizers but we had just finished a workout and hadn't ate all day so we wanted some extra calories. The decor: very tavern style, intimate with tables close to each other, a bar area, a gaming area, and a private room. The appetizers: A very run of the mill appetizer set up for a pizza place, we ended up snagging some jalapeño poppers which were good we enjoyed them we also grabbed up some potato skins as a random pick. The potato skins are definitely missing a few things, namely any flavor. We wanted to finish them but we decided on not and having one of my friends take it home. Might need a little salt and pepper! The main grub: It's not my first time eating B&B's but it was one of the best times for sure. I don't know if it was the fact that I've only done take out or what but whoever cooked this today was crazy good. And we all agreed our food was above average. If not great. The spices and flavor from the sourdough pizzas were nice and filling. Would recommended. 4/5 or 8.73/10 read more

We had the Peperoni and mushroom thin and crispy pizza. It was just OK nothing to make me want to return. Service was nice and the location was clean. This is a busy place so be prepared. The side salad was very basic. If you want a family friendly place this is a good choice. read more

Always great. Sometimes too busy for staff but be patient and enjoy visiting with your people while you wait.

The pizza was fantastic and they had poppyseed dressing for my salad a big bonus. Old style pizzeria at its best.

We had a group of 12 for lunch. We called ahead and they had a table set up for us. We had a great waitress and food was out quickly. Delicious as always! Love the pizza! Service was excellent. Waitress took good care of us. read more

The best pizza I have ever had. Lots of cheese and toppings. I like the thin crust, but there are others to choose from. Potato skins and breaded mushrooms are great. Friendly servers, great food, and low cost. What else could you want? read more

First time ever going here. We had potato skins and pizza.... Everything was fabulous. We will definitely be back....this is our new pizza place. Food was slow coming out but was worth the wait. read more

Food is great, prices are very reasonable and Deb, the owner, does everything to make customers happy. Servers are outstanding. If you want to enjoy a small neighborhood diner, this is the place to eat. Pizzas are amazing! read more

Best pizza in town! Great choices besides pizza Salads are good also! Drive-up window also! Great salad goes good with your pizza!

This place is practically famous around here. I'm not sure if it was because of that reputation, but we were let down. I'd 100% skip the thin crust. I love the idea of sourdough crust and I love a thicker crust so that was good! It had a good amount of cheese too. None of us cared for the sauce. It had a more acidic, thinner, fermented taste. Neither pizza had slices fully cut which was a pain when grabbing them. The potato skins were okay. Overall decent prices. Really cute place (on the outside at least). Would only return for the sourdough. read more

I like to preorder my pizza when I go there for lunch. I've done this 3-4 times now and every time the pizza is ready just a couple of minutes after we arrive. This is especially helpful since I don't want to take too much time for lunch. The pizza here is pretty good and the service is super. I have even noticed that they have a drive through option which you don't see at many pizza places but may be worth a try. read more

The most disgusting behavior by staff that I've seen in a long time especially considering Covid is still present. Multiple staff coughing and not washing their hands. Our waitress coughed into her hand and proceeded to transfer the bowl of salad she was carrying to the hand she coughed into. How disgusting !!! I loss my appetite and pretended to eat my food. I will never ever step into that business again !!! read more

October 2022- I heard there is a new owner. We met a friend at 630p on a Friday night. Servers were walking by and waiting on nearby tables but no one stopped at our table for over 30 min when I stopped someone and asked them to send a server over. I hope this isn't the new norm for a Friday night....???? read more

I really wanted to like this pizza. The staff were friendly and helpful on the phone. It's a local shop. There were a lot of good reviews. And they have sourdough crust, which looked really tasty! Unfortunately I don't want to buy a pizza here again. The crust was very undercooked and still doughy. The dough had been poorly tossed and was very thick in places and very thin in others--almost too thick to eat! Toppings were tasty (excellent pepperoni and spicy sauce) but there weren't enough to balance out the really heavy crust. We're going to buy more cheese and bake the leftovers to try and get decent pizza and not have wasted our money. After just a single slice I had a heavy, nauseated pit in my stomach from the dough. At the moment, I feel like I wasted my money. Marco's is more reliable, tasty, and affordable. read more

I love Bernie and Betty's. It's ultra thin crust pizza, done right. It's not fancy, but the crust is done such that its both crispy and chewy in just the right way, with the light dusting of flour and cornmeal to keep it from sticking to the classic ovens, enriching the flavors. This place has been around and gone through several ownerships the last 40 years. It's now very close to the original recipes for the thin crust. The toppings are good the cheese is just enough for the crust to not be over wet during the bake. Seems like quality ingredients to me, and I have no complaints other than I can't wait for fresh mushrooms to finally be standard offering. I would add them if so. Drive through take out window was installed at some point in the 90's? I think, and the interior bar is classic old Springfield. Building ought to be historic if it isn't. There's some gaming machines inside if that's your thing tucked way back and out of the way for the rest of the diners. That's done very well for everyone. Prices are fantastic too. Try some other options like the Italian beef or a pasta dish. Don't be afraid to ask questions about the menu and find out if they can accommodate your dietary needs. The ranch dressing is homemade and it's good read more

Bad food. Worse service. Managers blame cooks. 30 years of patronage gone for our family. Really don't want to argue with everyone in the kitchen about a messed up order. PIZZA HUT IS A BETTER OPTION. I'm nervous to post this because I'm afraid that our credit card won't be refunded. ... more to come if it's not. read more

This was a very interesting experience when I stopped in with my Dad last Friday. The entire place was empty besides one gentleman playing on the slot machines! It was a Friday at 1, a bit past the lunch crowd but we were still shocked. Ironically enough, the lack of diners (usually a bad sign) did not matter in the least. We ordered identical meals; meatballs and salads. The food arrived in a timely manner, our waitress was on point and the food was outstanding. The meatballs were homemade not frozen with a great sauce and the salads were fresh and robust. I will definitely return, maybe next time to try the pizza! read more

Foood is delicious but the service fucking suuuuucks. Kept asking to close out, come on people I've been waiting for 15 minutes now. Life doesn't stop and start at your convenience you miserable piece of... Seriously, food was great, but damn does the service suck. read more

There was a day that Bernie & Betty's ranked high, I grew up in that area and Gab's and B&B's were awesome. Having not been there for a long time and my wife was there having "girl's night out " last night I asked her to get a pizza to go and I awaited for the pizza I haven't had in years. In the end all I can say is " it was the worst pizza I have ever had, no flavor and very, very little toppings, where as back in the day it would cover the pizza. I am a firm believer that if you can't say anything nice don't say anything, we'll I can't this time. read more

This is a corner bar/pizza joint with great pizza, friendly staff and old school vibe inside. Nice neighborhood spot. They have hot slots too. The also have a full bar. read more

Cool and laid-back pizza joint! Food was good and the price point was even better. Large pizza, garlic bread, large salad for under $25 - more food than could feed a family of four. The staff was super cool and friendly! read more

What a wonderful local restaurant! I called and ordered a take-out order since we are sheltered in place with Coronavirus order from the governor. The ordering process was quick and efficient. My husband picked up and the order which was ready in 15 minutes. We enjoyed the appetizer basket, a pasta/seafood salad and pork tenderloin sandwiches! Everything was fresh and delicious! Can't wait to visit Bernie & Betty's in person once this quarantine order is over! read more

Had one of the best pizzas ever. Love the thin crust and was cooked to perfection. Made reservations but when we got there, there was a little confusion, but was seated quickly. It had been many years since I have been here, but was very good food. read more

It was a Friday night and I wanted pizza. I decided to try a local pizza joint. Initially, we went to another pizza place, but they were closed for dine in, so we came here. It's a hole in the wall, but it's worth a try. They have two different styles of crusts and we tried both. The thin crust and the San Francisco sourdough. Both were good, but, in my opinion, the thin crust was much better. We also ordered some poppers, which were good, but, I believe, they were the normal frozen jalapeño poppers. Nothing special. The overall experience was good up until they decided to vacuum the floor. I do appreciate some clean floors, but I'd rather not be yelling at my girlfriend to talk to her. Anyway, I recommend this place. read more

Service was slow. But if you can get past that the food was extremely good and very reasonably priced

Well I'm sure we won't order from here anytime soon. We just got delivery through Door Dash. The pizza crust is burnt to a crisp and I didn't order any hot toppings but it's burning my mouth so bad it tastes like jalapeños are on it and our chef salad came with spiral pasta in it. That's not a chef salad. Not very impressed or pleased. read more

Bernie & Betty's Pizza - Bernies burnt pizza - Pizza Near Me - Springfield, Illinois

The food was...okay. We started with the mushroom appetizer. The mushrooms were huge and a little to "wet" for our liking. My boyfriend finished them, but we wouldn't order them again. The pizza was a bit better. We ordered the specialty cheese pizza. It was okay, but it didn't have much of a flavor really. It didn't taste bad, but it wasn't great enough to make me want to return. We must have come on a busy night. There were only two servers, and the place was as full as could be under Covid restrictions. We waited a while to be seated, then waited longer to be brought a menu and to be able to order. The food is edible, but nothing special. read more
