    18" NY style, half Margherita, half the Works
    Raeley G.

    The inside is nicer and cozier than I expected for this little pizza place, which was a pleasant surprise. Service was good even if it took a while for the pizza to come out. I loved the Margherita pizza, and the NY crust as well. I would say the 18" NY pizza could feed three adults at most, or two who are very hungry, because the pizza is fairly thin. This isn't the cheapest pizza place in town, but I definitely enjoyed it enough to come back.

    Drink. I forgot to take a picture of the food.

    We ordered a small "The Works" pizza, Philly cheesesteak sandwich, wings and a house salad. Really enjoyed the pizza!! Sauce, toppings and dough all were on point!! "Wing" / chicken bites were nothing to brag about. Cheesesteak was okay and nothing to brag about The house salad was huge and a great value!! I really like their ranch dressing for salad and pizza. I rate Glory Days Pizza more hit than miss!!

    New York Style(Biggest Pan Size)

    Great Pizza!!! Highly recommend!!! Hands down really great service, atmosphere is great, and it's 40's-50's themed inside with music from that era... but the Pizza is great and the New York style on its biggest pan, was super delicious, and the garlic sticks, and chicken wings were tasty....

    College towns are always affiliated with having a slew of pizza options at their disposal. More times than not, this doesn't correlate to "good pizza". Yea, when I was 18-21 years old, pizza from a frozen box was the best thing since sliced bread. But, with age comes wisdom and a change of the taste buds. Lawrence like any other college town provides low quality pizza not much different from the frozen boxed pizza I mentioned. Don't misunderstand me, the business owners of these pizza joints are quite intelligent. If you can provide a sub-standard pizza at a low cost for students and still have killer profit margins, go for it. This is America Jack and I'm all about making a buck like the next guy. But..............some of us hanker a decent slice of pizza outside the big city where most of the good quality pizza is located. This is where places like Glory days Pizza steps in. From what I can gather, Glory Days Pizza is no national chain is locally owned and operated originally from Topeka Kansas. I eaten at their Topeka and Lawrence location many times. Consistency is the term here. They consistently provide a fresh tasting pizza that is quite delicious MOST of the time. True, they have their off days. But again, more times than not they cook a mean pizza. Many have compared one of their crust options to Pizza Huts pan pizza. Yes, this is true. But, Glory Days is usually not as greasy as Pizza Hut. Both places normally have a buttery crispy crust along with other varieties of crust. I actually enjoy their thin crust sometimes but always revert back to their thicker crust. The New York style crust is ok. But, it doesn't reheat very well and I try to stay away from that. Their toppings always taste freshly cut and not frozen. Not sure if all their ingredients are fresh or some are frozen. Glory Days has really good pizza sauce. Not too acidic. There are a ton of pizza options at Glory Days. It all depends on your favorite toppings, etc. The other menu options aren't bad. Really like their meatball and Philly cheese steak sandwiches. The chicken wings were surprisingly good as well. Salads are run of the mill variety. Never had their dessert pizzas or cheese sticks. Some have mentioned their prices are a little high. True in a sense. But, you are getting a much better pizza than your $5.99 variety that permeates Lawrence now. Trust me, spend the extra cash and judge for yourself. Look at their website. Usually advertise two pizza specials. Another good option is stop in on M-F during lunch and get their slice specials. Super low prices on slices. Dining in is my favorite thing to do at Glory Days. No frills pizza joint with self serve soda machines. Pizza is always crispy and fresh coming straight out the oven during dine-in. Both locations have good friendly people. Rock solid local pizza business that deserves major props on Yelp. Bravo Glory Days.

    I have to say im a dedicated customer to this establishment and since they do dining dollars for KU students obviously they get a 5 stars from me. THANKYOU. the only bad encounter ive had here is when I was ordering through the phone and asked if they had any brownies and the man told me no. But then my friend called in 5 min. to order pizza too and asked about the brownies and she got 3.... SOOOO didn't appreciate that. their brownies have to be one of my favorite things. Stick one of those in the freezer for 30 minutes and then take it out it tastes like fudge!!! I love their pizza its grown on my a lot and they offer a tonnnn of pizza crust options! Their meatballs are tasty! The cheesy bread is so so. DO NOT get their BONE IN wings though lowkey just NOT IT. the bonenless wings are alright basically chicken nuggets. The pizza desserts we ordered once and have to say made me and my friends never want to order those again. the desserts just came looking like a kindergarten decorated them lol. Overall though im making it sound worse its a great place and makes pizza that doesnt taste artificial!! They offer a lot of combinations and toppings!

There will be those who disagree with me but there isn't anything outstanding about this establishment. Every time I have been here, the service has been lacking. Everyone is friendly enough but they have problems getting my take out orders correct. I usually get a burger to go. Oh, yeah... fries are extra. If I'm paying $14 for a cheeseburger, you would think fries would be included. Not here. Bottom line... it's not bad but there are other, better restaurants in town.

Our order was placed at 5:00 PM, and the receipt indicated an estimated delivery time of 45 minutes, which was perfectly acceptable. However, the food did not arrive until 6:09 PM. While we understand that Chicago-style pizza takes longer to bake, arriving 24 minutes past the estimated time was disappointing. More concerning, though, was the poor quality of the food. *The side salads were fine, except the croutons were stale. *The Toasted "St. Louis" Style Breaded Cheese Ravioli appetizer was cold. *The Chicago-style pizza was also cold and tasted like day-old leftovers. We ate only 2.5 slices and threw out the remainder of the large pizza. *The New York cheesecake was delicious. However that wasn't enough to save the meal. Unfortunately, this was a major letdown compared to our previous positive experiences, and it makes us hesitant to order from Minsky's in the future. I'm the past, we have always been pleased, but this experience was far below your usual standards. Given the quality and temperature of the food, I don't feel this order was worth what we paid.

I've been having Rudy's Pizza since they were located in the Crossing more than 30 years ago, and I've been hooked on their sauce ever since. Whether you're just stopping in for a slice or you want a pie to go, Rudy's has lots of choices and plenty of great deals. Pro tip: some of the slices that may have been there a little longer than others go down to the dollar/value slice rack, or the lowest rack in the rotating warmer. Same great pizza for a friendly price! Rudy's has menu specials, calzones, or make your own pizza with a range of toppings and crusts. I'm a sucker for their whole wheat crust, but that might not suit those a gluten-free palate. The sauce is my thing, not too sweet and not too tangy and it melds just right with their cheese blend. Pizzas come out hot and ready and prices are right on par with other spots in LFK. If you're dining in, then know that seating can be a touch limited but your pie will come out and sit on a rack ready for serving. Plus you can listen to the soothing trickle of the goldfish pond while you wait.its a chill atmosphere in a unique sub-street space. It is Lawrence, so be mindful of your parking or you'll find yourself adding to the city coffers. Rudy's does deliver, so you can still get that great pizza brought right to you if you aren't fetching it. It's a great local business with a taste you don't get elsewhere, and it's absolutely worth my five stars.
