This is my go-to pizza dive if I am looking for a tasty pizza at a reasonable cost. I have had about 3 different pizzas from them, A hawaiian style, Their "sylvia's meat pie" with all their meats and a hot cherry pepper, and a pizza called the "all nite diner" which consisted of french fries, hamburger, bacon, pickles, cheddar, and a ketchup and mustard sauce. Each one was cooked perfectly on a fresh-tossed dough, no gumline and delightfully crispy. Each pie was delivered in a reasonable timeframe, on average taking about an hour overall to get a pie from them. The price is nice as wel, only set me back about $16-20 for their medium which is a 16" pie with free delivery. The restaurant is not great for the front end, there are a few booths and most of the rest of the space is taken up by their spare drinks and such. Since I mostly do delivery though, that doesn't bother me too much. Staff is friendly and down to earth, but can be a bit uncouth if you are sensitive to those types. I also enjoy the fact I can order a pie from them through yelp. Sometimes I don't have cash and don't feel comfortable reading a CC over the phone. Overall, I recommend this place if you are looking for a good pie at a good price. The front end definitely makes this place a "to-go" location but if you can look past the front you can find an awesome little pizza joint to try. read more

Checkers is one of the few places in the Manchester area that has GREAT vegan pizza options! Gluten free pizza as well. The people there are always pleasant and the pizza is great. They offer multiple vegan toppings for the pizza. Highly recommend. read more

Checkers Pizza - Yummmmmm - Pizza Near Me - Manchester, Connecticut

First off I'd just like to say that this spot has been great since I've been coming here as a kid. Always good pizza and really no complaints. The service is great as well, I spoke to an employee on the phone named Kevin about a pizza I had ordered that couldn't get delivered because of the weather conditions. Kevin then told me he was the only employee working at the time and was willing to deliver my pizza himself! Great guy and great customer service as always. read more

The pizza tastes fine, and the garlic bread is good. The cheesecake is disgusting. The eat-in area isn't great either. Small and not especially well maintained. One person who seems to be the owner, is a nice guy. There was someone else there...presumably an employee, who just seemed disgruntled. As for the neighborhood...perhaps try to limit your visits to the daytime. read more

I don't know how this has so many good reviews but on my weeklong trip around the northeast this was the worst part of my trip. It took over 2 hours for delivery. And the site said they delivered it well before they actually did, I actually was on the phone with DoorDash to tell them I never received an order at all and they refunded me. After that I got McDonald's since it was the only food place open. Well then all of a sudden I get a call from Checkers Pizza that he is 2 minutes away. I tried to tell him to leave but he was like no I have your food, well I reluctantly took the food. After one bite each with me and my girlfriend this was the worse cold pizza we've ever had. The cheesy spicy fries was all stuck together and basically one lump of greasy potatoes. Literally ate about 4 bites of this cold garbage. You've been warned. read more

I would give this place no stars if I could. We had almost an hour and a half wait. The grinders received were disgusting. We couldn't distinguish who had the chicken cutlet and who had tuna. The only way we knew which was the tuna was from the RANCID FISH STENCH! An hour later and multiple hand washings with Bath & Body works Kitchen Lemon and my hand still stinks. My husband gagged and almost vomited the chicken. I would have given them back to the driver if he didn't just dump the bag on the ground. I contacted them and was left on hold. read more

Checkers Pizza - This was the tuna. And it STUNK like raw fish. - Pizza Near Me - Manchester, Connecticut

I was trying to save $$$ & ordered a party pizza & my entire family disliked it. What a waste but never going back.

This is the absolute worst place to possibly order from. Do not use DoorDash, Uber or any other app as you will never actually get your food, it's a scam that they then make hard to get your money back. Read the other reviews here, nothing but issues and problems with this place. Avoid. read more

Best pizza to hit manchester in a very, very long time. If you get a chance get the checkers challenger pizza. It's slammin! -Edwin Perez-​

Checkers Pizza - Chicken Cutlet Grinder after being out for delivery TWO HOURS! - Pizza Near Me - Manchester, Connecticut

I hadn't been to Checkers in a few years. I'm glad that I went back. I forgot how good the pizza is there.

Looks like a hole in the wall but the good is great. Staff friendly and accommodating. We were in the area for a wake. Stopped here for supper. A 95 degree day so it was cooler outside then in. Ordered two 12" meatball grinders and a 12" tuna fish. Meatballs were great not a-lot of filler like elsewhere Sauce was very tasty. Tuna fish was stuffed. Enough for two meals I would return for the food not the accommodations if in the area read more

Checkers is our go-to late night pizza place and we order delivery from them at least once a month. The cheesy bacon fries are amazing! All of the pizzas are great but if you're having an evening where you may have enjoyed a few cocktails, I might recommend the "all night diner" pizza (it has french fries on it, enough said). We always look forward to ordering from here and I highly recommend it! read more

Very nice people in there. The pizza is always amazing but I do not recommend the wings. Slimy, non-crispy wings and you get a soup of sauce that drips through the containers. Their pizza is the way to go though for sure. read more

Ordered online. So easy to use and I was able to add tip online! Which was very convenient since I had no cash. The pizza was a wee on the cool side but not enough for us to enjoy. Would order again... maybe a bigger size. The 12 slices was enough for 2 people but not for 3 if you're really hungry!!! Ordered half cheese and half peppers, sauce and onions. read more

We ordered a medium pizza and a large white pizza. When it arrived we had two medium pizzas. When I explained we had ordered a large, they immediately offered to make us a large pizza. The food was delicious and they did send out a large white pizza. Thank you!! read more

So I placed an order tonight and I got a cold pizza and cold grinder and it was all bad. NEVER again. I literally just now ordered some Subway because this food was bad my son didn't even like the pizza he took one bite and said um no. And I only took one bite of the grinder and NO!!! So much for places open late night. read more

Probably the best crust we've had in Manchester/Hartford area. The specialty pizza combos were just ok though. We got the broccoli tomato pizza (pizza special on the menu) which was very good. I like that it had ricotta to break up the heavier mozzarella cheese a bit. They are quite heavy handed with the mozzarella cheese! I think it could've used another element of flavor like more garlic...but I almost always think more garlic is needed on any white pizza. Unfortunately the second pizza we got was not a red pizza so I didn't get to try their sauce. We tried the bbq chicken pizza which was loaded with cheese, and a good balance of chicken. However no red onions as the online menu promises. When we got a hard copy at the restaurant the bbq chicken pizza wasn't on the menu, so maybe they don't make it too often. In any event, it tasted a bit boring to me. Thankfully we had some extra red onion at home that we sauteed and chopped up some cilantro which rounded out the flavors. Decent price and nice people. Definitely would try again, but different combo specials. Can anticipate increasing my stars with the next visit and the right combo...or maybe just cheese next time! read more

I'm pretty surprised this spot has such good reviews. Got the 40 piece wings for myself and some friends and it felt like they had been prepped by someone who had never made wings. The outside of some of them were hard to palette. They were tough and super overcooked. Like an ashy jerky. Not quite sure what happened there. I will say the grinder that one of us got was totally fine and seemed like standard fare you'd get at a deli. Perhaps wings just aren't their specialty. The onion rings were also pretty sad. The fried exterior was clearly wet and soggy with oil. Overall it might be worth trying this spot if you're getting Pizza but I can't speak on that because I haven't tried their pizza and the grinder we ordered was pretty good but stay away from the fried foods. read more

This is slightly above average pizza 3 out of 5 stars but I would give them a 7/10 because of the hours they are open. I ordered the meatball grinder and large cheese pizza. The whole order was 6/10, 7/10 favor. If you are ordering middle of the day or any time before all the other pizza places close then I would order somewhere else. But this as a late night option it is good. read more

LOVE their pizza and very much enjoy the owners. Just wish the delivery orders (even the smallest ones) didn't take over an hour! Honestly though some of the best pizza in town. While I wish the wait weren't so long, it is usually still worth it. :-) Okay I have to update-- this is the second time in a row it's taken two hours for me to get two medium pizzas delivered. Am I the only one they keep screwing over? I love you, Checkers. But we have to break up. read more

Ordered a pizza half pepperoni/sausage half pepperoni/bacon they sent me half cheese and half pepperoni/bacon. So I called and told them my pizza was wrong the guy told me I was wrong and he only rung up the pizza he gave me so that's what I get. So I told him I wanted the pizza I asked for I didn't even touch this one and he said no even after I told him I would pay the difference to add the toppings. I asked for a manager and he said he is the manager and wouldn't give me his name and hung up. I would never eat here again very poor customer service. read more

It was our first night, new house in Glastonbury and late. I ordered from Checkers and never heard of it before. Came in via Grubhub and it was really good pizza. The crust was friggin delicious and I would definitely order again. Maybe try one of their specialty pies. read more

Was service ever.. came in no hello no nothing. Been waiting here to order.. 3 guys working but no one cares. If.i wasnt hungry. Will.not.wait!!! read more

I'm not the type to ever give a bad review... And I hate doing so but I am compelled to...First time ordering from checkers. Delivery took over an hour and the food was very average. It's like they just dumped cheese on top of the crust and added sauce and put it in the oven...The pizza was thick and greasy Won't be ordering from here again. This definitely was by far the worst meal I've had in a very very long time. read more

I was visiting my boyfriend who lives in the area (I'm from RI) in Christmas and we didn't find many places that were open. We came across checkers and because we were starving and not many places were open. We called and orders a Hawaiian pizza, they were not doing delivery only pick up which was fine with us. When I went in to pick it up the place was kind of small but I am assuming that they do not do much table service and have mostly pick up and delivery orders. The chef and another worker were both very nice (especially since the place was open until 1am). They had such great customer service skills ! The pizza itself was delicious ! We ate half that night and finished it in the morning. I absolutely recommend this place. The service was great and so was the pizza!! read more

Probably the best local pizza joint in the Manchester/East Hartford area. The options for pizzas are awesome, the food is always on point, and the people working there are easy going. I am in no way vegan, BUT their vegan pizza is killer - I will drive out of my way and then some just to get one! And they have an all night diner pizza that has my heart, and may even give me a heart attack but it's worth it haha! The only down side is that sometimes this place can be a little bit slow, or take over an hour to get delivered. BUT once you taste the pizza, I'm telling you that it's completely worth the wait, and anything less will be a complete and utter disappointment. read more

First time checking out this place. Before, it used to be 803. We for a large half cheese half peppers & onions. Not bad. The crust of the pie is chewy, charred and crusty. Some people might argue not enough sauce, but I was content with the bread to cheese ratio. I guess I will have a better idea when I order a second time. From the time I ordered to when I picked up my food, the staff were super friendly and nice. read more

You know what, this was some tasty delivery. I ordered the 16" veggie pizza, which arrived with more veggies than advertised, such as fresh tomatoes, and it was wonderful. This is a pizza sized for a party, and for right under $20 you really can't go wrong. Personally, I will ask for half the amount of mozzarella next time around, but if you're a cheese lover, order as is because it arrives with max cheese while still cooked to perfection. Delivery time was within the estimate, and the pizza arrived super hot. YelpEat makes this process so easy, and Checkers makes it delicious, so you gotta get in on it! Checkers offers a seriously great pizza at an awesome value, so next time your pizza craving sneaks up on you, give Checkers a whirl! read more

Ordered for the first time, (pick-up) and the pizza was delish! We always ask for extra sauce and I am glad we did again. One was Hawaiian and the other was hot peppers and pepperoni. Talk about super flavor and two kinds of peppers! The cheese is so fresh and gooey like it is suppose to be. Love their coupons cause they have some great deals. read more

Absolutely repulsive service. Waste of your time going there. Staff isn't friendly what so ever and the pizza smelled like shit.

Hanging out with my boys, playing video games and of course we were craving wings. Being late there was few choices to order from so we decided try this one. Ordered 48 wings, 3 different sauce: Jerk, hot & honey mustard. The delivery took about 40 mins but I guess they were busy. The wing were great, just meat and sauce. I don't like the ones that are battered first. My favorite was the Jerk, done in wet sauce and tasted as Jerk should. The hot was buffalo style but not too hot so will have ho u notch for next time. The boys devoured the wings. The only thing I would ask for is the carrot sticks and celery. It didn't come with any. Haven't tried their pizza but will have to next time.I just wish they didn't take so long to deliver. read more

Horrible service. It is really hit or miss with these guys in my experience. First time I ordered I ordered at 7pm and didn't get my food until midnight. I gave them a second chance because they are a 2 minute ride from my house. Food is normally good. How ever a few days ago I ordered meatballs for dinner. They got here with a slice of pizza I did not want. Said they were out of meatballs. They could have called and told me a head of time and let me change my order but they chose not to. They said they would give me a free pizza to make up for it. Tonight I ordered my free pizza along with almost 30 dollars of food I paid for. Ordered at 7:25pm got it at 9pm. The pizza was burnt and didn't taste good. So called them and they said they would replace it. Here it is 2 hours later and no pizza. They just told me another half hour. They are clearly unorganized or understaffed in my opinion. I will not be returning. I have no problem waiting 15 to 30mins extra for food, they may be very busy or under staffed but 4 hours is unacceptable. Prices keep going up but service is taking a dive. read more

I really wish I could recommend this place. The crust has the potential to be really good, and the sauce is decent. The first time I ordered (4 or 5 months ago) the toppings were just plunked in the middle of the pie resulting in 2 to 3 inches of no toppings around the edge of the pie, and a soggy center crust. Decided to give them another shot. We decided on the Spinach Rigot. When I ordered, I specifically asked them to make sure the toppings were spread out to cover the pie ! I also asked if they used hot or sweet sausage, as my GF can't handle spicy sausage, and was told it was hot sausage, so I asked if they could substitute meatball. They told me "no problem".. Half hour for pick up. Pizza was boxed and ready when I got there 30 minutes later. I live 5 to 6 minutes away... The pie was cold when I arrived home. Upon opening the box, we saw a slightly offset clump of toppings, not spread out at all...(I wish I had taken pictures, but hungry,...) the slices were not cut through, so trying to lift out slices ended up tearing the crust at the edge of the pile. After cutting through, they were still falling apart as under the pile of toppings, the crust was just shy of RAW ! The sheet of paper they put under the pie was hopelessly stuck to and fused to the "crust", so we picked it apart and put it into a frying pan on a low heat, our usual method of crimping up and/or reheating pizza, and managed to eat it with a fork. The crust around the edges, as I said earlier, has the potential to be really good. The sauce seems decent. The rest was a disaster. To add insult to injury, the substitution of meatball for hot sausage was an additional charge. No "no substitutions" on the menu, and no mention of a full extra topping charge for subbing one meat for another. I don't know if I might try a single topping or plain cheese to see if the crust is as good as I had thought it could be, but as of right now, that doesn't look too likely... read more
