I have been here a few times during this pandemic. This seems to be a popular local spot. The food is pretty good here. I usually get the calzones, which I would highly recommend. It comes with up to 5 toppings for $9.99, and it's big enough to easily have two servings. They also have a good selection for alcohol. The service is good for the most part but the locals definitely get the best service. read more

My family and I have been coming here for over 10 years, and it's disappointing to see the decline in consistency and service. One of our biggest frustrations is that the kitchen is frequently closed before 9:00 PM when certain staff members are working. After spending the day at the lake, pizza night has become a family tradition, and we've been turned away multiple times despite arriving during what we believed were normal operating hours. We also visit almost every Friday and Saturday night, and there have been numerous occasions when the restaurant closes earlier than expected, forcing us and our friends to find somewhere else to go, specifically on Sundays. In Allegan County, there are very few late-night dining options, which makes this especially frustrating. Beyond the inconsistent hours, the atmosphere has changed noticeably. There is often loud profanity coming from staff areas, and employees frequently seem more focused on socializing than providing good customer service, we see staff consistently drinking as well as smoking on the job with the kitchen employees. This creates an unprofessional environment that doesn't match the experience we used to enjoy. It's disappointing because this was once one of our favorite places to gather with family and friends. We hope management addresses these issues and returns to providing the reliable service, welcoming atmosphere, and operating hours that customers have come to expect over the years. read more

This was AWFUL! I had delivery. We ordered a BYO 14 in pizza, thin, with pepperoni, onions and olives. It was under cooked, and bland. The fries pickles were edible, but over priced. The worst of all of it were the chicken tender and fries. The "tenders" were anything but. The tenders should have been labeled "jerky" as they were very thin and dried out. The fries, cold and wimpy. Of all the places I've ordered in the recent past, this place was by far the worst. I will never order, or eat in at this place again! read more

See all

We stopped in after a day at the antique fair. It was a welcome relief to walk into the AC building and sit at a very clean bar. Andrew was our bartender he was super friendly and efficient. It's obvious that this place has a "regulars crowd" all nice folks too. Definitely will go back to try more food items. read more

My husband and I went in to Order a pizza and do dine in they weren't busy so we sat down while waiting for 10 minutes for someone to come take our order we noticed workers sitting and staring at their phones and finally one of them that seen us walk in got off their phone to come wait on us and we placed our order and the waitress made a rude remark to the cook about us ordering a pizza that's on their menu like we inconvenienced the cook by ordering that particular pizza. We seen the same waitresses make another couple that came in wait for awhile to place their order as well. The pizza was ok not very many toppings and the service was horrible. It's sad because several years ago the service and food was wonderful. read more

Terrible service from Keegan. My order came out wrong, no apology from him. Then I waited while others ate ALL of their meal and still waited 10 minutes before mine came out, still absolutely no concern from Keegan. Horrible service. I saw one customer leave because he waited so long to be served. If Keegan is working, I will never stay. read more

Food, staff and drinks are all the best in town! I loved brevin as my server and Alan makes the best drinks. The pizza here is stellar. They let me know they were under new ownership so if you've been here before or never have been, this place is worth the try! read more

I used to eat at Joe's Pizza all the time when Joe owned it. When came here to eat the place was gone. 10 years I missed Joe's Pizza. Today I happened to be driving through and saw it on the main drag in town. He had sold the place and relocated it. I finally got to have a pizza here. It may not be exactly how Joe used to make it, but it is still a damn good pizza. Not very many places make pizza with parmigiana cheese on it. This place does, yummy. The fried mushrooms are delicious as well. And they have jalapeño ranch dipping sauce. If they offer extra sauce for dipping, ask them to warm it up for 45 seconds or you'll have really cold sauce. Now the staff, oh my god they are so very friendly. If you have never been here , give them a shot. They have a bar inside, one thing Joe never had. read more

I've eaten the pizza here many times. The consistency was always an issue. I can say the last few times has been great but I feel like they are getting really skimpy with the toppings. Ordered a large pepperoni and bacon pizza and the whole pizza maybe had 10 pepperoni on it. Also ordered a deluxe pizza. You would expect at least every bite to have at least one of the five toppings on it but way too much of it was just cheese. read more

Food is always on point. I haven't ordered anything that was short of amazing. Highly recommend the Junkyard Wrap. Plate presentation was also on point for being a "Bar" read more

Terrible place to visit if you value respect and kindness, never had been their and got yelled at for trying to order food at the food counter! Terrible vibe and people, if you looking for a late note bite or drink I strongly urge you to go elsewhere read more

i was greeted by a beautiful mulleted man with a gleam in his eye and was instantly served a plethora of creative and delicious mystery drinks. his service was timely and polite & he had an ass that just would not quit. He was a charismatic flash of light - dashing to and fro, grabbing glasses and pouring liquor at the speed of light. I would gladly accept any beverage this young man chose to give me. if you have not been served at the legendary Joe's Pizza, you must go, and soon. read more

Spent 15 minutes waiting for absolutely noone to take my order. I was looking forward to hitting a local spot

What place has great drinks, even better food, an awesome group of fellow customers, and a uniquely amazing staff here to make the time perfect? I'll tell you who; Joe's Pizza. Never feel bad about my money going towards this place. Thursday night karaoke is a blast! The place to be for college game day,Saturday! Not to mention the vibe you need to cure that Sunday hangover. Stop in or order a pizza for delivery, and you won't regret it! P.S. The Busch Liguy is colder than the girl who turned you down in high school! read more

Cheap drinks and greasy food, a perfect place to wrap up the night. The pizza is good, but they really know what they are doing with the appetizers - pizza puffs, breadsticks and cheese balls are all great hangover preventers/curers. Joe's could definitely use a deep clean and a few lessons on waiting tables, but not bad for a small down joint. read more

Never an issue with Joes. Always phenomenal food and drinks. So thankful they take hygienic precautions and masking seriously. Out of about a hundred visits, they've only made one mistake and that only resulted in a free pizza. LOVE this place. read more

I walked in to pick up my to go order around 5:15pm. There was one table occupied in the whole restaurant and explicit music was blasting. I went to the counter and saw 5 employees right there. Two sitting on their phones and three talking loudly about spring break experiences. I smiled when I made eye contact with a few of them... after about two min of none of them addressing me I finally said hello? I'm here to pick up an order... none of them look up. Finally a 6th worker walks from the back and says hello and gets me my order. Such an awkward and unpleasant experience! I'm giving two starts because the pizza was pretty good! read more

I was at Joe's Pizza in Plainwell, MI on July 19, 2021, visiting from Des Moines, IA. The experience could not have been any better. I requested a dark beer, was offered tastes of two, chose Perrin Black which was new to me and I loved. I ordered a veggie calzone and it was the best calzone I've ever had. Our waiter stated that he wasn't busy and would make it himself- he did a fantastic job! All nice fresh ingredients and stuffed full. He was Anthony and I can't speak highly enough of him. A delightful young man and he made our experience there top of the line! I will be sure to return to Joe's the next time I'm in Plainwell. read more

Just ordered delivery from this place and my food was wrong and also absolutely horribly made. I called to try and get a replacement sub since I couldn't eat the one delivered and was told they would just call me back. Horrible customer service and terrible food. I will never order from this place again. read more

This is one of 3 pizza places I absolutely love. They use fresh ingredients and their sauce is up there for taste. I won't say there're the best cuz that's too close to call, but I will give 5 stars in what I enjoy for a pizza verses price and I recommend for anyone to try and decide. read more

One of the best pizza places around! The pizza is similar to New York style with a unique touch. Honestly cannot understand the bad reviews, this is a must try if you've never been! read more

Ordered delivery 5/6. Phone was answered timely and professionally. Order was taken and paid for over the phone. Delivered within the expected time frame. Driver was super nice and appreciative of a nice tip. Food was really good, hot and fresh. Ordered subs with sides. read more

I made an online pickup order fir a pickle pizza. I checked the pickle and ranch box NOT the bacon box. When I got home the pizza had bacon on it. I'm a vegetarian. When I called they told me that's just the way it comes. I'm suppose to make a note of no bacon. I double checked on their online order site and there is no box to make notes. I asked to speak to the manager and was told she was to busy and then they hung up on me. Terrible customer service! read more

We were only in town for a couple days for the festival, but we ate here twice. We had taco pizza one night which was very good and received free cheese bread with our order( great deal the cheese bread is huge), we also ordered takeout for lunch we had the pizza sub, and club wrap which both were exactly what we were expecting great lunch. The reason I'm giving this 5 stars is for the server who had two tables of kids who didn't have enough money to cover their bill and left a pile of change sitting on the table for her to count out. She had such a positive attitude and was going to pay for the rest of their bill out of her money. She did a great job and earned an extra five dollar tip for having a great attitude! read more

Alan and Matt and Hannah and Jake and Nick and the rest of the crew are great at their jobs. They treat everyone with respect and are very thoughtful. I appreciate the service here and have never been dissatisfied. Salads rock!!! read more

Excellent, personable, and helpful service. Great hometown bar. My grandmother from Sicily couldn't make sauce this irresistibly sweet. The dough was rolled by the gods, the calzones crafted by angels, and the subs toasted by artists. The bartenders are really just Greek Adonis's who pour drinks on their free time. If you ever happen to be on death row... you want your last meal to be Joe's pizza, and THAT IS A PROMISE! read more

Everytime I try to order delivery I can seem to get past "please HOLD" before I get hung up on or wait over 5 min. :-(

This is good pie! Inexpensive prices to boot. Me likey. I travel a lot, and as a pizza super-freak, I try many different pizzas all over the country. While this wasn't the best I ever had, it was pretty tasty. Not the most modern interior I have seen, and definitely has a local feel to it, but these are good things. I went with a friend who lives in the area and was pleased she took me. I will go back when in the area again. read more

This isn't a fork-and-knife type of pizza place, nor is it a neat-scotch type of bar. You can definitely have both, but this is more of a casual hang out where you can find plenty of locals on any night of the week. Enjoy New York style pizza, ridiculously cheap beers and drinks, several TVs, a jukebox, some arcade games, charismatic bartenders, and even some outdoor seating at this small town hangout. As for a casual bar setting at night (that still serves food), this place is a definite go-to. Expect rock and country music, plus a few throw-back favorites to keep this place energized until the doors close, whether it's comfy summer evening or in the dead of winter. read more

Take it from a road warrior-this place is GOOD! I travel 34+ weeks a year and find myself everywhere from Manhattan to Jackson, Mississippi to, yep-Plainwell, MI. This is a great little hometown joint, with local charm and good people. Prices are almost ridiculously cheap. There are 5 or 6 draft beers and what looked like a pretty full bar also. I've been in some s#*tholes with s*%#ty service, but this ain't one of them. read more

This place is terrible. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. Bad service. Slow and the food was poor quality. Not going back.

For the most part this pizza is pretty good. It's more New York style. I prefer to ask for it to be baked an extra 10 mins and its perfect!

Have given Joe's several opportunities to win me over, in the last three years. At best, they've broke even a couple of times. I flat refuse to get take out from them at this point, because they don't much care what goes on the pizzas. I'd kind of like it if they cared as much as I did, since... I'M PAYING THEM TO DO SO. "How about if I just take a minute, and pick the meat off your wife's half?" was the final straw for me getting take out there, when the half sausage / half cheese pizza was made incorrectly. Dining in..... Always seems to be combat sports on TV. At least we've never gotten the wrong pizza when we dine in. Makes you wonder how they can get it right when you're sitting there, but not when you call it in.... Décor is really dark and dated, with the ghosts of a thousand sad old chain smokers, and faded beer signage as ambience in the bar half of the place. Slightly better if you get a booth by the front window NOT in the bar half of the place. Slightly. Service hit and miss. inattentive to average. If they weren't selling big, barely adequate pizzas for not much $$$, I'd not have gone more than once. As it is, I think it's been a year or more since I've been there, and am not feeling incomplete, as a result. read more

Had an incredible experience. Small town charm and sweet service. New to the neighborhood and will be coming back again.

Third time this year they have messed up my to be delivered order. Tonight was last straw. I ordered no mayo and burger was slathered in mayo. Manager tried telling me if I check a box it means I don't want it. Not true. 3 out of the 4 boxes are marked. Mayo is not and I did not check which means I didn't want. Refuses to give me a new burger or refund. 15 on nothing. Will be disputing with BBB. read more

Very good thin crust pizza. Much Better than the chain pizza places

This was my first time here and in Plainwell in general as we are from the Detroit area and we were looking for a place to eat and watch the Red Wings playoff game. It was busy and we grabbed the only table that was left. I ordered the Firehouse classic burger. It was spicy as advertised topped with salsa. Messy and delicious. If I ever find myself in Plainwell I will be back for this burger. read more

Wasn't that crowded and we still waited over half an hour for a large pizza. Usually we will take leftovers home - we didn't. Crust was too chewy and tasteless. No Coke products - another knock. Won't go back. read more

We ordered a Joe's Deluxe pizza minus onions on one half for carry out. THEY pointed out to us that they had made a mistake (onions on the whole thing) when we picked it up and made us a new pie on the spot. Very professional and the pizza was very tasty. Amy's Baking Company could learn a few things from Joe's. Matt and crew, you just earned a loyal customer. read more

Love the outdoor patio! It's nice to get some sun while enjoying a drink! I also like that there's music playing outside! Cheerful staff, keeps me coming back! read more
