Good thin crust pizza. Basic tomato sauce was familiar-tasting (hot enough sage?), lotsa mozzarella cheese (the extra cheese makes a better slice @10 minutes than 5 minutes after service), at the table cause it as kinda thick when first served. Also will be great leftover lunch/brunch - was our plan so we got big-ish pizzas). Good thin crust. I'm hyper critical on crust, so call that a big compliment. We'll be back. (And we're Lou's routine customers, so if I order a 2nd pizza from you it's a big deal). They've decorated beautifully for the season. Lovely. The party room looks awesome, I'd love to know it's happily used for lotsa fun Elgin events . Tomato & mozz salad underwhelming. But a good healthy addition to everything we were ordering even if mediocre. Heavens sake we need fresh veges sometimes Mom loved the crispy onion rings & the dressing (our appetizer). It was all about making her happy - and extra crispy onion rings with plenty of dip = happiness The holiday decorations plus lotsa Taxidermy kinda odd but Mom was fascinated. If she's happy I'm thrilled. Overall. Giant space in South Elgin. Lovely. Pizza was very well priced. Our server was awesome esp my Mom's obvious dementia impacting her public food activity (shoot, I can't remember our servers name - but she was obviously a pro & handled my family, I'd be happy to hang out with her again). Near Gail Borden Library South Elgin branch - I'd happily spend a couple hours there.... read more

Service is very slow, on the waiter side. The food was very good and came out very quickly! Very cute spot, perfect for a chill evening out with the kids The peanuts are a cute touch to keep the kiddos entertained. The establishment itself is also very neat, lots of cool things to look around at! Would recommend just not if you're in a rush to grab a check lol! read more

After all these years, our first trip to NP&P. Really, REALLY cool inside....old barn siding decorate the walls along with an amazing array of stuffed fish and wildlife, very warm and cozy. Our server Nancy (I guess she's been there quite a while) couldn't have been nicer and very attentive without being overwhelming. 4 of us in our group, the one couple ordered fried mushrooms for a appy, nice and crispy, done to perfection. We ordered mozzarella sticks...had to be the best ever!!! We then each ordered the "double decker" pizza with sausage and mushrooms. Never heard of such a thing and wow, such great flavor, done just right with a perfect amount of sauce, cheese and toppings. Wish it was closer to us but it's worth a trip back! Well done Nick! read more

We order from Nick's pizza occasionally. We have had birthday parties there too. We like the pepperoni, sausage, cheese or veggie. The service is good. We will be back soon. read more

Food was okay, service was fair. Hostess lied about the seating, lacked in professionalism to say the least. Will never patronize again read more

You either deliver or you do not. They keep changing delivery and never have drivers. If they do have drivers it's a two or more hour wait. Terrible service. read more

Fantastic serve and great thin crust pizza. Can't beat the Saturday/Sunday deal of $20 for a pitcher and large pizza! read more

I love Nicks, the food is great, the only thing I don't like is the lights, WARM LIGHTING PLEASE!

I meant to update this a few months back. Wanted to recognize Caleb as an amazing bartender at Nick's. For several weeks, we were hitting Nick's for our Saturday lunch choice and honestly we kept going back just for the service. I mean the pizza is great, but the vibe was better. read more

Prices are outrageous! $31 for medium pizza w sausage n more for half of it w bell Pepper. Pizza good.. not as crispy as before. We are now living in CA n back in area n this was our #1 spot to go as always.. never again. read more

Nothing was awful just not very good I wanted pizza so we went here with a group of 7. Ordered a few drafts, they were cold & fine. Got the bruschetta app it was 5 pieces of small toast & not enough balsamic. We ordered a large Pizza for 2 of us to share. It was only 14" & paper thin. We both polished off our 1/2 with no problem & were searching for the bag of peanuts they gave us when we were seated. I was expecting to be full & possibly have leftovers. Wife tried the breaded chicken sandwich, it was bland. 2 people had the new grilled cheese with soup- it was ok Italian beef was dry with very little flavor Bill was almost $200 b4 tip for a tiny large pizza, 5 sandwiches, 1 small app & 5 beers, 1 mixed drink & 3 lemonades. We won't try this place again the pizza was veeeeeeery disappointing read more

Service was great. Pizza good but needs more sauce. Nice atmosphere and close to home. Will go again.

Heading back from downtown Chicago was a great excuse for us to swing in and pick up two pizzas from Nicks. We ordered two pizzas one with giardiniera and the other with sausage and giardiniera. Both pizzas were excellent. Order was ready on time for quick pickup. read more

Love this thin crust staple in Elgin. Tues BOGO great value!!! They help the community so much they deserve our business. Great product good service and big in the community!! read more

Love Nick's...still! Get the bruschetta! Get the Italian Chopped Salad!! Get any pizza with toppings!!! I love the taco specialty pizza...Try the specialty pizzas on Tuesdays, it's their BOGO carry out day. Totally worth trying something new for BOGO. Morgan is the best server in the area, she's great every time. And she is always thinking two steps ahead. Nick, the owner is on hand a lot. He's really approachable which is so important in an owner. Go for one of their community events...Tonight was Santa, and we loved it. Just try Nick's. You'll be happy you did. (Just don't try the lemonade, it's awful...lol) read more

Last time we ordered from there it was awful! Tasted like cheap frozen pizza. We emailed 3 times with concerns. No one ever responded. USED to be favorite place to take friends. Even had a 70th bd party there. Haven't been back. read more

Living in Florida now, I don't get back here often but absolutely love Nicks pizza! When I moved back to Illinois in 1996, the Crystal lake location was the first place I had pizza back home and Nicks remained a family favorite. We moved in 2018 so I have only been here 2-3 times in the last 3 years. Love it though!! We used to have birthday parties and other celebrations here. They always do a great job!! read more

We have eaten at nicks over the years and generally had good food and fair service. Had birthday parties there. Today was so disappointing that we will not return. The food was mostly fine. The bun on the sandwich was not toasted. Big deal right? The unusual coleslaw slaw was not fresh. When the appetizer was served we did not receive napkins so I was able to get up from the table to find a server to have him bring napkins. The food was served and again I had find a server to get silverware. The drink refills were not brought until the meal was pretty much over. We can overlook some of these issues. The kicker came when 20 percent tip was added to the bill for the 2 of us. We were not given the option of cash payment so the convenience fee was added. Sorry to say after supporting nicks through the years including when covid was around and the restaurant was struggling we will mot be joining nicks for a meal. read more

Food came out lukewarm, our server was on a different planet, I'm surprised that she remained conscious throughout our time at Nick's. Don't get me wrong, I've been going to Nick's for almost a decade now and I've never, I repeat never, have ever had such a scary/concerning experience within such a familiar environment. The server at the time, I believe her name was Laura or Lindsey, started with an L. She was stumbling when approaching our table, her hands were visibly trembling when passing out beverages, her eyes were dilated beyond belief, and I had a sneaking suspicion she was inebriated based on her complexion and lack of basic motor skills. Sad to see a place I used to love become completely classless with no service standards. This experience made me deeply uncomfortable and I will not be returning. read more

We ate lunch At Nicks on Sunday, March 9. pizza and cheeseburger were so good. Caleb, our server was fantastic. Nick's was busy. Servers were hustling. Nice to have great service and a fun time. read more

***I ordered online I'm always passing this place but I've never tried their pizza before. And for someone who has a pizza tattoo, I had to check this place out. There's two kinds of people in this world. And I am a supporter of pineapples on pizza! I've never had a pizza with whole sliced pineapples on top. They're pretty thick pieces too. I liked that they have bbq sauce in place of the pizza sauce. It's nice that they allow you to choose if you want your pizza cut in triangles or squares. I personally like having most of the ingredients inside, under the cheese. The wings were wet but the meat was a little too dry for me. I would order again from here. My order was correct and hot and fresh. read more

Not sure who that Rodolfo guy in the front thinks he is, but he's rude as fk. He completely ignored us for a good 30 minutes while he fiddled with his phone. When we finally asked for assistance, he got an attitude and told me if I have an issue I can take it up with the company. Then proceeded to walk away. I've never had an issue here before this. We ended up just leaving. Mood ruined lol. read more

My husband and I always enjoy stopping in when we are in the area. We love the thin crust pizza there and the atmosphere is always so nice. But I have to say that today our server Caleb was so genuinely nice. I could hear him with the other patrons, and I even complemented him. If the owners read this, you really need to acknowledge this young man. He really went above and beyond and was just so kind. So nice in this day and age. read more

Very disappointing we've been coming here for years. There must be a new owner or something because the pizza was marginal at best not like it used to be. It has really gone down hill. We will probably never go back. read more

This place has a great American food fanfare vibe, with the decór screaming Americana. Walk in and the inside reminded me of a giant log cabin. If you're a PETA advocate and don't like taxidermy, the decor isn't something you would like. Various stuffed animals are all over the dining area from bears, to fish, to a giant chandelier consisting of, what I assume, deer antlers. Another warning, if you have a severe peanut allergy, you may think twice about coming here as they have numerous baskets of shelled peanuts and it's encouraged to dump the shells on the floor after consumption. There's signs that quickly warn you as well. The place was pretty busy on a Friday night, but we got seating pretty quickly. For appetizers, besides the complimentary shelled peanuts, we got some wings and mozzarella sticks. The mozzarella sticks were OK, but the wings were fantastic. They had the perfect crisp and the asian chili sauce was phenomenal. For the main dish, I ordered the turkey burger. The burger was somewhat dry, but it was decently seasoned. I enjoyed my burger, service, and friends. BATHROOM REVIEW: Bathroom located near the back of the restaurant, I was pleasantly surprised on how clean the bathroom was. Everything worked fine and nothing smelled. Sit or squat? Squat. read more

We had rented the back room to films few scenes for our film and also had pizza for the cast and crew. Tanya who was our waitress and coordinator for the setup in the back room was absolutely amazing. She was super friendly and helpful with everything. You can tell she loves her job since she was always smiling. You have a great worker with Tanya. Also, the cast and crew loved the pizza and salads. read more

So not all way bad... The good- pizza is great, it's thin, crispy and delicious!! Calamari yum!! Especially with that garlic aioli!
