I used to like this place, new owners ruined it. Pizza sauce was bitter, dough was not hot, fresh, not crispy on outside & doughy in the middle.. cheese was low quality mozzarella... Not going there anymore! Anyone know of. Good NY style pizza in the area? I need a new favorite place to go for pizza! read more

Tried a Supreme Pizza and boneless Thai wings. Both were very good and the price was reasonable. I recommend giving them a try!

Since moving onto the Clayton area eight years ago, we have been loyal customers of Big Cheese Pizza. However and recently, the last three times we have ordered pizza, each large supreme was soggy, the crust in the middle was paper thin and quantity of toppings, especially pepperoni, has been meager. In addition, prices have increased and quality has diminished. This has been most disappointing. We are going to have to look at different options purchasing a pizza. read more

My first time buying at this restaurant. Hands down, the best pizza and cheese bread sticks I have had in years. The sauce and cheese are actually spread all the way to the edge of the crust. The bread sticks are spiced just right. Friendly staff and very reasonable prices. I will visit there again very soon. read more

Super cheesy, fresh, and delicious! One of my favorite places for pizza in Clayton. 10 out of 10, would recommend 100%

The owner ( I am assuming he is ) called my wife the N word!!! DO NOT GO HERE!!! Extremely rude! I asked for a refund for a pizza I got that was wrong and that's what happened! Unforgivable! read more

This was my first time trying Big Cheese, I ordered a pepperoni and sausage pizza and bbq spicy wings. The pizza isn't bad, it has a good taste, it's a step up from Little Caesar's (no shade intended) however I didn't care for the wings. It was way to much sauce, they were very small wings and the sauce was overly tangy. I would come back and try another pizza, not so much the wings. read more

So easy and the pizza was good! Great place to grab dinner if you are running behind.

All my three toddlers (6, 4, 2yr old) approved! We finally found a pizza place that all of our three kids like very much! Wonderful service and wonderful food quality and price! read more

I loved this pizza place. The staff is great, always smiling. You can order at the take out window, call in and pick up or go in and order. Recently we went and they have changed their crust and it isn't as good. I hope they are just having a supply chain issue and they will go back. Their crust was the best. I will keep going back. read more

Ordered a pizza online and it said curb side pick up. We parked infront to pick up our pizza and watched the young worker walk people their pizzas. Then when we called, she proceeded to say they do not do curbside and we have to pick it up ourselves. Read the reviews about the bad attitude at the establishment and would agree. Her reasoning was dumb and childish, just do your job and serve pizzas. read more

The food is always good .... However the women Are unprofessional you are there to do a job siting that flirting with someones spouse is not acceptable I don't care how you were raised ... there is a fine line between nice and over flirting and she crossed that line.. then I have my window down to receive the food no she purp goes to my my spouse side and is like oops .. but if I say opps and beat her a** its a problem read more

God this pizza was good, cooked perfectly and the crust was actually full of cheese. Unlike Pizza Hut (How can their stuffed crust be so bad...) I'm surprised more people don't know about this place. When I tried the big Cheesy Bread my eyes rolled back. The Italian seasoning, fat cheese bread and crust tasted like little caesars Italian cheese bread but upgraded. I also got a fudge brownie and it was so good, it had no chocolate chips like I prefer and I honestly give this place 5 stars definitely try it out. Cheap and delicious. I had ordered from grubhub no I don't know how it's like inside the building. But I will be ordering again. read more

I just called to order a pizza at 8:28pm. The employee stated that they can only make 1 topping pizzas because they are closing soon. I asked if they closed at 8:30 or the 9:00pm that listed online. The employee confirmed that they close in 32 minutes. I politely asked again if they could make a pepperoni and cheese with extra sausage on 1/2. She said, sure. It would be ready in 5 minutes. How can they go from NO to a 1.5 topping pizza because they don't have enough time, to 5 minutes? The owner needs to be made aware of the practice that the staff has implemented. That's really bad business. So 5 minutes later I show up and pay. The lady hands me 2 pizzas. 1 with pepperoni, 1 with 1/2 sausage 1/2 cheese. We explain that the order isn't ours and we ordered X. No one apologized or even cared. The manager came to the window and was super rude. We left the pizzas and got a refund. A refund in which they could not give me a copy of. read more

Ordered online and got to the store to a full parking lot. Went in to pick up and had exceptional service. As I walked in a worker was wheeling out about 30 pizzas. The staff were busy taking orders, making pies, and delivering. What I thought would be a long wait wasn't and the manger on duty was fabulous! Highly recommend- they have the best cheese. read more

After deciding where to order pizza from for a classroom party. We chose The Big Cheese. Serina gave outstanding help. We ordered 20 pizzas and needed them delivered early. Serina went out of her way to not only open early so she could have them done for us by our lunch time, but went out of her way to get the pizzas delivered. Everyone enjoyed the pizza. Great service, great food! Thank you to The Big Cheese for making our classroom party a success! read more

This has been my go-to pizza for a while now. The obvious comparison is Little Caesars and I think hey have them beat. Tons of cheese with great tasting bread and sauce. My friends and I once pulled up to the drive-through on a holiday weekend, not realizing they were already a few minutes closed. They still answered the window and took great care of us. read more

I have to say, this is great "fast food" pizza. They have lots of toppings to choose from and options like cheese bread, Stromboli's, and cookie deserts. The pizzas are all a size large and freshly baked. I have to say they are better than little Cesars any day and less expensive. $6 per one topping pizza. $11 for the specialty pizzas. read more

Fairly good pizza for the price but terrible service. I called several times tonight to place an order no one answered so I drove up and they said they did not take Call ins after a certain time. I called at 8:15pm. Who is managing this place??? read more

Best pizza place in town if you don't want to spend a fortune. The family loves this place. Friendly staff and never a long wait.

They are the best!!! I ordered 6 pizzas for my sons birthday party when they first opened up on a Saturday and my order was ready by 12pm. I appreciate them and they are always so friendly. The food is a plus!! read more

Hate to rate with only 2-stars since they were my go to when they first opened up until now. The pizza is NOT the same. I've tried to give them the benefit of the doubt but every time I ordered from them the pizza doesn't taste like it used too. It's like they're not putting enough sauce on the pizza and they're using the cheapest cheese possible. I get it- for $5 you can't complain, but I remembered how they use to be but now it's no where close. So I'll be taking my $5 somewhere else unfortunately. read more

The pizza was pretty good! But the marinara sauce that came with our breadsticks tasted off. Tasted like it had been sitting out for days and frozen/thawed out dozen of times. Or made in a saucepan that's never been cleaned. I'll reorder pizza from here any day though. Better than Pizza Hut or dominos. But that sauce?? Blegh. read more

Pizza is not a go-to food for me. And that's mostly due to the cost-to-quality ratio that many pizza stores have these days, that being "moderate-to-my expectations were already low, and have managed to sink still further." I'm old enough to remember when Papa John's really did have better ingredients and better pizza. When Pizza Hut was a treat, and tasted good. And that is not the case any longer. So when my wife noticed Big Cheese Pizza sitting back off the road in the shopping center behind McDonald's the other night, I didn't have high hopes. In fact, it looked like a little Caesar's rip-off to me, with their "Fresh and Ready" pizzas. But I was wrong. Oh, so very wrong. My journey began with a trip to the website, to look at their offerings. Wings, deep dish brownie pizza. A STUFFED CRUST PIZZA. You have my attention. Now, I was curious. For $8, I wasn't expecting much, but if it was even "OK", then this meal was going to be worth it. After pulling in the wrong entrance to get to the drive through (hint: Look for the pull-in, fifty feet after the actual entrance to the strip mall), we pulled up to ordering window. Once there, we ordered something comparable to a Little Caesar's order: A deep dish pepperoni pizza (if you want to get pedantic, it's technically a Sicillian style pizza). Nothing fancy, and no way to hide if the pizza was awful. It was not ready in advance, but then again, most people seem to order the traditional, round pepperoni pizza. And they were taking those out of the oven constantly. The "Fresh and Ready" only applies to the most popular menu items, during peak periods. That's how it works. Six minutes or so later, they opened our window and dropped a massive, heavy pizza into our car. The smell was incredible. Fortunately, our drive home was short. When I opened it up at the house, and took the first bite, I knew something was different. Remember when you used to get a pizza, and the cheese stretched out in a long, almost unbreakable string of mozzarella? It was one of those. Thick, hearty pizza, with a crispy crust and gooey mozzarella. Generous, but not overly abundant pepperoni, with a bright, tomatoey sauce. Perfectly delicious. This is the kind of pizza I remember from growing up. Where two pieces would leave you feeling stuffed, because they put, you know, actual toppings on the pizza. The sauce was not as spicy as I like it, but I think you would be pleased. And oh, the second day, cold-pizza-as-breakfast test? Best I've had in years. For a place called "Big Cheese Pizza", they are not falsely advertized This place is a five star for your average, franchise pizza place, and a four star in general. 4* = I am a fan. Pizza is now an option. Trivia: Oh, and as to whether they ripped off little Caesar's on the "Fresh and Ready" deal? I did some research. Big Cheese Pizza started "Fresh and Ready" in 2001. Little Caesars didn't start "Hot and Ready" until 2004, by their own admission. Sounds like someone noticed that Big Cheese was doing something right. read more

Big Cheese Pizza - When you use real cheese, there's going to be a little grease :) - Pizza Near Me - Clayton, North Carolina

The cheese pizza & breadsticks weren't good. This was my first time ordering from them & wanted to get something simple. The bread & cheese seemed old & dry. This was a step above a frozen pizza which I had in the freezer already. I won't order from there again, first & last. read more

For the price you cant go wrong. For $5 you can drive up and get a one topping pizza hot, ready, with a crispy crust. For $8 you can get a large stuffed crust, hot and crispy and a true large. They have great chicken wings with a hot sauce thays acctually hot. Chewy gooey brownie pie, and ceaser salads with or without chicken. They use real cheese not that non-melting cheese byproduct at little ceasers and Cece's. If you are on a budget and want to feed the family, give this place a whirl. You will be happy. read more

Pizza is ok, salads were not good. Best thing here is the cheezy bread. Asked owner for a free pizza for a charity door prize, she was rude read more

Since moving to NC I have struggled to find good pizza. I have gotten pizzas from here twice and was pleasantly satisfied both times. The cheese is so good and so stretchy and so yummy. The stuffed crust is to die for. I am very picky about sauce, often times I will just skip it, but the sauce on this pizza is so good. The sauce to pizza ratio is perfect! The crust is nice and sturdy and always cooked very well. The employees are always super nice and willing to answer questions. The prices are amazing! I was shocked to get two large pizzas with toppings for $19.99. Big cheese pizza rules and is now my go to for pizza!! read more

They should change their slogan from Fresh & Ready. Its NEVER Ready. They should be sued for false advertising. As far as Fresh, no complaints there. Its very similar to Little Ceasars, but LC is usually ready, unlike these liers. read more

I was delightfully surprised, the pizza was inexpensive, but not cheap. We got a stuffed crust, for around 15 bucks. Cheese was soft and gooey. Ill be back read more

Way better pizza than Little Caesar's!!!! More cheese on the pizza and better service. Will definitely never go back to Little Caesars!!

What's better than fast $5 pizza? A drive thru window! Makes it so easy to run and get pizza when I have kids in the car and don't want to juggle them by going inside. I love the fast service and love the pizza and specialty pizzas are only a couple dollars more. You gotta try there pizza breads they are amazing. read more

Good pizza taste so it good on the weekend when you don't want cook food and go get the pizza or have it take to your house

I go to big cheese in clayton nc at least twice a wk because its close, affordable and delicious. I get my pizza special made with extra sauce an well done. Occasionally it may be off due to new employees but for the most part, they're on point read more

I have been here several tinned and it is never ready. The pizza is good for being easy to get at a drive up window BUT it is not good enough to wait for. Fresh and ready is false advertisement. read more

I've only had pizza and bread, but they tasted almost identical to Little Caesars to me. Not awful, but not the best, which is expected when you pay $5 for a pizza. I like that they have coupon opportunities (mailers, back of receipts, etc) and their other options (salads and wings) are things I will probably try all soon. They are also very fast and friendly! Thanks guys! read more

Heads up people - the fabulous pizza sold by the slice is Not the same as a classic pizza sold here. I raved about it to my husband, the super lunch slices. So he finally ordered a pizza this weekend, and yuck. Little Caesars. It was a terrific price though but so disappointing. I called the store and the lady said they do sell the slice pizza as a pie but for much more $. Trust me, it's worth it! read more

Big Cheese Pizza has consistently earned 4 stars from my family within my category of "value/quality". Have been 10 times or more since they opened and have had four different pizzas as well as their cheesy breadsticks. I have not experienced one time when the crust tasted of cardboard or wasn't fresh and the cheese has always been very good. The drive-up window is ultra-convenient and they almost always have pepperoni and plain cheese pizzas ready to go if you forget to phone ahead. Look, taste is subjective. I'm just saying that I know of no restaurant outside of fast-food value menus, where two-to-four people can eat for $5.00 + tax. read more
