We opted for takeout tonight. My husband ordered online. After arriving home he checked the pizza and the ticket - they didn't match. We'd asked for a thin pepperoni, we received a thick cheese. Thankfully a quick call resolved the error but it did require another drive by. Based on getting two orders, I actually like the thicker crust. Next time I'll also ask for light pepperoni. Having marinara for dipping was good - the pizza itself is light on sauce, too light. Nothing to add about the space since we picked up; however, seating and parking is ample for guests. Most spaces are ideal for 4 people but there are some tables to pull together for a larger group. read more

The toppings on the pizza were sparse. It resembled a frozen pizza and had the flavor of such pizza. The server had to be secured from somewhere in the back. She disappeared once we were served. The restaurant was not crowded at all. The vibe reminded you of an old Pizza Hut. The decor is old and tired. We will not return. read more

Hometown Pizza is delicious! It always tastes very fresh, the staff is excellent and accommodating, and it has such a great family friendly vibe. read more

Lunchtime on Friday soon after opening time so not too busy. Our waitress was very friendly and patient as I had an on the spectrum teen with me to eat. He picked Hometown Pizza and raved about "yellow sauce" and "they hide pepperoni under the cheese". We chose a build your own medium pizza, thin crust. 1/2 pepperoni and 1/2 cheese with diced tomatoes. We did the cheese sticks too mainly to appease the hungry teen but I sampled them and they were delicious! Perfectly crisped thin pizza crust for our pizza, and their garlic butter sauce is a great accompaniment. Our drinks got refilled promptly and our waitress checked in to see if we needed anything several times. We paid using the QR code, quick & easy. The big highlight ended up being the 25cent gum ball machine, great timing for cleaning change out of my purse, cheap happiness for the teen guest! read more

We dined inside for the first time at Hometown Pizza on Wednesday which is family night. (That means free bread sticks for the family with order of a Large pizza)! We had gotten pizza to go before during the pandemic while trying lots of new restaurants via takeout. We love their bacon cheeseburger pizza and dessert pizza! We were delightfully drawn in to the cozy pizza parlor environment. The staff we relaxed and welcoming. It felt very family friendly. We loved the wooden booths and Tiffany lamps. There were lots of kids and it was loud while we were there. However there weren't a lot of screens with ambient noise (which I was thankful for), so the voices of the other customers were not overpowering. The bread sticks were perfectly cheesy. What surprised me most was the chunky marinara. It was so yummy. I don't usually eat marinara because it's often made with tomato paste, but this seemed fresh made and chunky. My kids liked their spaghetti and meatballs. We got the White Chicken pizza and it was very good...as you can probably tell from the picture! read more

My husband ordered pizza for me and two kids. He paid for extra chicken on mine. When I picked up the pizza, it had no chicken. One person offered to remake the pizza. One offered to heat up some chicken and just give it to me. I got some heated up chicken. What should have happened, is the entire order should have been remade so it was all fresh and correct. No offer for a discount on next order. Nothing. Super disappointed. read more

Typically pretty good pizza at this location. No cheese on about a third of the pizza for some reason. read more

Our quest for the best pizza in Louisville continues. And Hometown Pizza surprised us...in a great way! We ordered the thin crust. One was sausage. The other was mushroom, spinach and onion. The Italian sausage on the pizza was outstanding. I like a little extra sauce. It was tasty. My wife had the mushroom, spinach and onion pizza and loved it. To be honest I think it was the better of the two pizzas. The restaurant is not quiet but definitely not too loud. It is nice that they don't over power you with music. The booths could be more comfortable but I can't remove a star for that. Hometown is a winner. It may still be a quarter star behind the Post but it is the best we have had in Middletown. And by the way...you can go next store to DQ and get a blizzard. Mmmm! read more

Had a lovely lunch today at Hometown Pizza in Middletown! I'm not a pizza person, I know, GASP! But I'm aways down for a calzone or a sub. Today I had a meatball sub. It was excellent! Came out hot and fresh. Meatballs were a good size, bun was soft but toasted, marinara sauce is chunky with onions and complimented the whole thing. I should have asked about the pasta salad before I ordered as my side, as it's mayo based and I'm not a Mayo fan either. I had a few bites of it though and it had good pieces of olive, onion and pepperoni In it! There were a couple of sliced pickles on the side that I'm mad I forgot to eat! Service by Amy was efficient and pleasant. Def will return here! read more

I ordered take out from this location tonight and it was great. I got the chicken Alfredo (without the vegetables) which was fabulous as always. It comes baked and tastes so fresh. This is my favorite Alfredo in town by far. I love the garlic bread that comes with it as well! The order was ready on time and correct. The staff were friendly and they were wearing masks. I went in to pick up my order, but they told me you can also get your order curbside if you call and tell them you've arrived. Support this local chain! You won't be disappointed. read more

Waited to be seated for the lady to walk away from Us and seat someone else. Then Waited over 40 minutes for pizza after we got seated and they sent the wrong pizza out. Never brought plates no Parmesan offered either. read more

Good pizza "joint". Casual. Good food. Family friendly. Prices are good. I would recommend if you just want good pizza and wings

I just got home with my hometown special pizza and was disappointed of how few veggies were on the pizza. I was lucky to find green peppers, onions and mushrooms in,maybe, 2 bites per slice. Is there a restriction on the amount of veggies to put on a pizza? There was enough cheese and meat but lacked in the vegetables. read more

Went in there on Friday night for a carryout order and they were busy but moving along very well. The staff at the middletown store is always absolutely incredible. I always come in the morning and the daytime server during the week is the best I've ever seen. The manager on duty that night(not sure if he was the only one but only one I saw there but he was doing 4 or 5 things back to back in the 3 minutes I was there maybe. However I never once felt that I wasn't important and made sure myself and the other 2 gentlemen were taken care of in the best way. I know he looked defeated during all of that and I hope they can get some more help soon. I can not thank them enough for all of their hard work read more

Hometown pizza is good pizza the crust is soft ample amount of toppings the sauce is nice as well try it you'll like it

I grew up in Bullitt County and frequented Hometown Pizza in Mt. Washington, Bardstown and Taylorsville as a kid. I moved to Middletown a year ago and was happy to see a location 5 minutes from my house. I went there this evening and was not disappointed. The service was great and the food was even better. I love their grilled chicken salad and the thin crust or thick crust pizza. The sandwiches and pastas are really good too. Can't wait to go back and try something else. read more

The Middletown Hometown has always been in our pizza rotation. I used to work close by and the buffet was a treat. Maybe post-COVID that will return. A great one. Hometown has that style pizza that has some similar cousins within the Pizza world in Louisville; Bearnos and Angios to name a few. It is not artisanal, the crust is not paper thin, but isn't rubbery. Guys Pizza way back when also had this 1/4 inch crust. My wife and daughter have really gone bonkers on the thick crust. It is a gem; light and buttery with a little crunch on the bottom. I like as well but since I was an outlier on this visit I went with the Hometown Special thin crust. Usually a "fancy" pizza is vetoed by the cast at hand, so I got to go uptown this time as the others went thick crust and sausage only. No disappointments. Speedy service and right out of oven delivery. We dined in, which we mostly don't do these days. Light indoor attendance so spacing was good. Lots of carry out going on. Hometown has been offering some freebies lately with free cheese stick coupons. Didn't have to twist our arms on using that. I didn't do a salad, I just remembered that. Love the potato sticks in the salad. Oh well, next time, which will likely be soon. read more

Having tried pizza at many Louisville pizza shops, I have to say that Hometown Pizza is my favorite! I am fortunate to live near one of their locations too! The crust is so buttery and good, but not greasy. But my favorite thing is their sauce. I do not like sweet pizza sauce or a sauce that is too spicy and their's is just right! The toppings have always been fresh and flavorful. Their pepperoni is not greasy like some that I have had at other pizza places. Hubby and I do takeout from this location very often and have never been disappointed. I couldn't give the 5th star because the restaurant could use some serious deep cleaning and updating; and the one time we dined in the restaurant, the service was quite slow. The server waited quite a while to turn in our order and the cook was out in the dining area watching the basketball game on TV. I was late returning to work because of the time it took to eat lunch. Again, the food is awesome and when ordering for takeout the order has always been correct and ready on time. We will continue to order our pizza from them! read more

Can't beat the buffet here! Always well stocked and hot! Salad options are fresh and restocked. Service is friendly and efficient. When you're craving pizza don't count out hometown! read more

This place feels like the old Pizza Huts on the inside...tv's, big booths, slightly dark, family friendly. The pizza off the menu is better than the pizza on the buffet. Its not great but its ok. Nothing special or unique about it. Service is usually good...friendly and fairly attentive. They are crazy stingy on the marinara though and only give it if you ask....and even then only a tiny little cup full. You have to keep asking and asking. The offer a lunch buffet and its so/so. There are usually a few pizzas, cheesesticks, cinnamon sticks, spaghetti, a casserole or two, and a salad bar. The salad bar is small with just the basics. The casserole is never vegetarian friendly and the pizzas very rarely are so if youre looking for veg, go elsewhere. They don't keep the buffet well stocked at all though and the pizzas tend to be cold...one of those things were you walk up and there's only what apppears to be cold leftovers. You can easily see an empty tray of what should be cinnamon sticks or breadsticks during your whole visit.They don't put any marinara sauce out, not even for breadsticks.Weird. No delivery. No more discounts if you bring a church bulletin on Sundays. You could do worse but you could also do better. Plus side is its usually quiet and a nice place to sit and chat. read more

Do you guys even offer doordash? Everytime I try it's always saying you don't accept orders when I've gotten them before. Don't always have my car available for pick up and a delivery option like this would be very helpful if I could rely on it read more

Hello everybody! Not only is hometown Pizza just a filthy disgusting place in general, but they also have ROACHES. Yep you heard right! Roaches. They are crawling all over your plates and in ingredients that go on your food! How do I know this? Well I used to work there up until a few days ago. They mistreat their employees by working them half to death. We are underpaid and understaffed. Nobody wants to work there bc they only pay us 10$ an hour! We get online tips but they vary bc some of you are very bad tippers They have had this roach problem since I've gotten there and they still have them! I worked there for 4 months. You have an allergy or need gluten free? Sure thing, they will just make it like a normal pizza. No new gloves or no new fresh ingredients. The place is going under. They can keep any employees bc their management is so awful. Also you have an employee there who likes to drink on the job and steal tips from her fellow employees. So go in there and try it if you want to at your own risk. I've seen people drop food on the ground and literally pick it back up and feed it to children. It is the dirtiest kitchen I have ever seen in my life and I'm ashamed to have been apart of that place. So next time you go to eat at hometown pizza, just know a big fat juicy roach crawled on your food before it got to your table! Enjoy read more

I grew up in the area and always loved this place. So when I was visiting one weekend I had to pick up a pie. Maui Maui is the way to go and don't dare leave without cheese sticks. Take out was fast and hot, they double checked my order in front of me, which I always appreciate. read more

You can't beat their $9 lunch special. Im a weekly customer and Ashley always makes me feel welcome.

Ordered a large thin crust pork and pepperoni pizza today. Very disappointed! I'm not sure if the Middletown Hometown is cutting back on portions however, there wasn't much cheese AND the pizza was overcooked. I also purchased wings and to say the least, they were gross. I've been a patron of Hometown locations in Mount Washington, Bloomfield and Preston. The Middletown location is by far the worst. Hoping for improvements based on these reviews. read more

I love this place. It has been a huge contributor to me surviving getting through school and not having time to cook dinner. The thick crust is where it's at. The thin is actually pretty good too, but I always order thick. I'm a huge fan of the garden veggie. It's my go to. read more

Excellent pizza and service, my family had a wonderful experience dining here. Loved the pizza and appetizers.

The 5 stars are for the pizza only. The salad was about 3 and a half. Beer selection zilch, nada. All they have is what is often called generic American swill. Not a real beer in the bunch. So don't go if you want a good Ale or IPA of any type. Go for the pizza. The Hometown Special, thin crust was cooked perfectly. Lightly crispy crust. Tasted great with good mouth feel. And the service was top notch. read more

The Pizza buffet cost $7 a person, salad was good but very average, the pizza was cold, and not tasty at all. The cheese is no better than a Pizza Hut, and the buffet is about the same. If I leave and feel I could have ordered a frozen pizza and eaten at home, I will not go back. read more

I love this store, my boy friend and I have a "table" when we come to this location. I even had my birthday there a few years ago. Thats where we met and ADORE Gretta. She is the best and shes not a server, she's FAMILY!!! However, I was recently told by a dofferent server there that the company's policy was not to offer gratuity to large parties. I REALLY REALLY hope that is not true... or you pay your servers a good wage for when they do not receiving a large tip they can afford to care for their family. I would hate to quit coming to Hometown because of that. P.S. their pizza is to DIE for!!!! I love the Joes pizza with pineapple. the salads with the potato sticks, YUM!!!! These 4 stars are for the service, and Joe's Special pizza... read more

Awesome lunch buffet. If they don't have your pizza out they will fix one. Joshua has excellent customer service skills.

Hometown Pizza grows on me each time I go. First off, I love the pizza sauce here. It is my absolute fav sauce. BUT, they give you very little on the pizzas and very, very little for the breadsticks when you order carryout. Im talking a teeny tiny container. If you order, ask for extra sauce! The service is generally great as is the atmosphere. I love the homey feel, the tv's, and the family-friendly environment. It makes me feel all cozy on a cold winter night. I like that. The cream cheese dessert pizza rocks and the breadsticks are great. On sundays, they do a brunch buffet (bring church bulletin for a discount). Super convenient but they struggle keeping the buffet stocked and it tends not to be vegetarian friendly. read more

We went to Hometown pizza because they now have a cauliflower crust..low carb, gluten free..which excited us since I'm on weight watchers and it was the recommended pizza. It was surprisingly good!! Even with a $3 upcharge.. Only complaint would be the few toppings you get compared to any other pizza restaurant and the toppings actually were less than a frozen pizza. Not sure worth $17 for a very small (about 8 inch) pizza with 1 meat and 3 veggies. read more

Probably one of the best hometown locations. They have great pizza! I usually get their thick crust with ham and pineapple.
