The Coop is the best walk up local pizza shop!!!! Brother & Sister hard working & super friendly. If you go enough they will know your name. The pizza is so fresh & tasty. They usually have by the slice available. Their pies are pretty large & have great options for toppings. read more

This place is such a hidden gem. It's a small mom and pop store, and serves such quality pizza at a very reasonable price! The crust isn't too thick, which is great, and the sauce, cheese, and flavors are cooked to perfection. They do accept credit card if you forget your cash. The service can be backed up since it's only the two of the owners (presumably) working (their phone is always ringing!!). So call ahead and plan accordingly. There's a small standing area if you want to enjoy a slice (when they have it) otherwise there is zero seating. Definitely will be back! read more

Pizza is great. Cash only. My only issue i have with this place is that it can take up to 1.5 hrs to get your pizza. Been going here for years, and have had the same order every single time (one sausage pizza, one cheese pizza) and everytime, regardless of the day, it's more than an hour. read more

I just wanted a slice of pizza. Not a whole pie. I'm slowly trying all of the highly rated pizza places in Los Angeles and being able to try a slice is a nice addition. This place has thin flavorful crust and even the last "end" piece of crust is good. I could easily eat the crust dipped into some olive oil and balsamic and call it a day. The cheese is fine. The pepperoni is fine as well. I did not care much for the sausage. The price was very good and the service was really friendly. Nice friendly old school neighborhood pizza place. This pizza is (so far) the best representation of NY style pizza I've found in the area. It's not trying to be a fancy wood fired, or artesian pizza. It's just a good "regular" slice, and it is good. They were all out of napkins but the owners helped find me some paper towels. I also asked to have ourselves cut in half which they helped with. read more

The Coop Pizza - Half slice of sausage and pepperoni. Good crust "so-so toppings" - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

AWESOME. As far as a solid, crispy, east coast influenced pizza in LA, I haven't found anything that comes close. I got a whole pie with jalepenos and garlic, and they put together something that was cohesive and texturally on point. Not to mention at a very attractive price. Can't say enough good things about this place! read more

Is up to standard taste-wise as a basic pizza by the slice for takeout only. Affordable prices and friendly service. Great salad offering and just the right amount of vinegar and oil to not need separate dressing. read more

The Best Local Slice in Palms/Culver City! If you are looking for the absolute best local pizza in the Palms and Culver City area, look no further than The Coop. While there are plenty of mainstream pizza chains nearby, nothing beats the quality of a local spot that actually cares about its craft. The standout feature here is definitely the dough--it is consistently fresh, light, and has that perfect texture that keeps you coming back for "just one more" slice. It's a huge hit in our household; my kids absolutely love it, and honestly, I could eat their pizza all day long. There is a clear difference when something is freshly made versus mass-produced. If you want to support a local business and treat yourself to a fantastic meal, come and support The Coop! Pros: * Incredible, fresh dough * Family-friendly (kid-approved!) * Authentic local atmosphere * Superior to the big chains Rating: 5/5 Stars! read more

The Coop Pizza - Large pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A small hole in the wall pizza place. The owners are so nice & sincere. I got the two slice pizza, one pepperoni, one with cheese & a can of soda. Simply delicious! They have been around for almost 60 years. The only drawback is that they only have a small counter for you to stand to eat, no table or chair. When the owners are nice & the food is delicious, it is all good! read more

Great New York style pizza. They finally take credit cards. Take out only as there is no place to sit.

Not sure what y'all want for atmosphere, but this is just great pizza at a mom n pop place. Get a slice to eat there (stand at the counter) or take a whole pie home (we start eating once we get in the car w a couple of paper plates). There's a liquor store right next door too, in case you need a liter bottle of coke, but The Coop does have sodas for sale as well. We love this place. I found this place when I lived in Venice and I introduced my wife to the Coop and now this is the only pizza place we eat around here... we now live in Silverlake and HAVE TO make a stop here whenever we're on the West Side. read more

Such a charming NY pizza joint that has such rich history and such lovely owners. The pizza is such a comforting hug- tastes soooo yummy! They have individual slices or full pizzas. We got a medium pizza + 3 toppings so it was about $19. Fed 3 people and enough for left overs the next day. Will be coming back here regularly! read more

The Coop Pizza - Medium pizza with bell pepper, onions, and pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Yes, good NY pizza. I'm originally a New Yorker. However Ms. Sweetness and light behind the counter isn't so sweet or nice. How does one raise the price of a slice, without actually raising the price? Cut the pie into smaller slices. I ordered 2 slices and they were as large as one normal slice. Last time I go there. Still great pizza. LaRoccos's pizza is just as good and they deliver. read more

Best pizza in LA. The go to spot for a NY slice and the whole pies are also awesome. Cash only and the couple that run the place are so friendly and attentive. Literally don't know what I would do without the Coop read more

Mom and pop type pizzeria that feels east coast. Pretty small space so most conducive for take out. The couple running the place are the sweetest people. This was also first meal at my apartment in the area a bunch of years ago. We ordered a pepperoni pizza for take out and enjoyed it with some of my beers from my stash. I'm a big fan of their pizza! I thought it was really tasty and it always seems to hit the spot. Great for slices as well as they are conveniently located right before you get on the freeway or right when you get off the freeway. Also, they're located right across the street from the Palms train station so it's almost perfect for a grab and go meal. They also have some other items on the menu like the lasagna meal combo that comes with some garlic bread and a salad. Honestly, maybe I might be biased, but just a great spot located close by and always has great food at reasonable prices especially when you want that grab and go slice. Parking is okay - you can park around the neighborhood for street parking or there is a small that it shares with a couple of other businesses. Since it's located in a big apartments area of Palms, it's walking distance for many. read more

Love Coop pizza. It's close by and definitely the best pizza in the area. It is old school as it's run by a couple themselves so you have to call to order and the only accept cash but it's definitely worth it. The owner is super sweet and there is some parking which is always helpful in west LA. You can also walk in and they have slices for sale but you never know what toppings there are. They have a little ledge you could eat at standing but space is tight so it's definitely more of a takeout place read more

Old school since 1968. Warning cash only. I just wanted to have a snack and not a whole pizza and luckily this hole in the wall has slices for sale for under 5 bucks. They only had cheese and pepperoni available so I requested a cheese with mushrooms added. The lady wasn't stingy with the ingredients and piled on the mushrooms. The dough was very good and crispy New York style. Street parking is a bit difficult to get but they have a parking lot they share with Bob's liquor store. read more

The Coop Pizza - Old school since 1968 - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Coop!! My favorite local pizzeria. I wish I could gate keep but I think all of Palms basically knows this place. I've gotten regular pizzas and thick crusty pizza, and meatball subs. This place does have a longer than usual wait time (it's run by the sweetest lady and man), but worth the wait. Most people order to go or pick up and it's cash only. It's not a restaurant you can eat at since the place is rather small - the kitchen takes up more space than the actual standing wait area which fits about 7 people comfortably (not covid comfortable maybe like up to 2 feet of space haha). read more

Fresh Pizza!!!! I believe this place is a small family owned shop. They are very friendly and attentive to their costumers. Pizza is very fresh and delicious! I like to stop here every now and then to grab a slice. It is a cash only establishment so be prepared. read more

I've been coming here for over a decade and they have some of the best NY style pizza around and for such a great price... you just can't beat it. Yes you could order Domino's or Pizza Hut, but it won't taste as good as the coop. So, do yourself a favor and try it if you haven't. It's owned and run by a sweet couple. They are always friendly and seem to genuinely love what they do. The place itself is small. It's on the corner of a building. There is a small countertop, where you can eat your to go slice, or add some oregano or parm to your pizza, but in general this is a takeout spot. One thing to be aware of, is they are CASH only. Back in the day, this would not be an issue for most people, but now, in the days of frequent contactless payments, I can see people who aren't in the know coming to this place not knowing any better. So, just be aware and bring cash. Trust me, it's worth it! The last time my Chicago grandfather visited me, I picked us up a pizza from here, and he still talks about how good it tasted. Mind you, he's 90, lived in Chicago for the majority of his life, and came out to visit me about 9 years ago. So, for this pizza to stay in his mind for 9 years is really saying something. But considering that most Chicagoans are die hard deep dish pizza fans, or super thin crust (cardboard like) pizza lovers, the fact that he loves this pizza, also really speaks to its quality! Yummy yummy!!!!! read more

Always delicious and they are so sweet. Favorite pizza on the Westside. The Italian salad is good too

We've walked and driven by this place countless times before finally trying Coop Pizza. Boy, oh boy - were we in for a treat! TLDR: This is our new neighborhood pizza joint with some legit pizza. Initially, we had very low expectations. The somewhat run-down exterior didn't suggest five-star quality pizza. Despite driving by multiple times, we never ventured in. This was truly a case of looks being deceiving. After hearing people rave about Coop Pizza - some even driving out of their way for a slice - our curiosity grew. Could it really be that good? One night, we spontaneously ordered an XL for pickup, and Coop Pizza instantly became our new favorite spot. The size was perfect for two adults with plenty of leftovers. The reviews are genuine. The people are fantastic. The pizza is delicious. No frills whatsoever. The owners, Christina and her husband Mike, are absolute gems who pour their whole hearts into their craft, and it shows. They were very kind, patient and super personable. Heads up: this place is cash only - make sure to bring extra for tip! read more

I have to keep updating my reviews, don't leave the parking lot until you have at least a slice or two! Ask for a couple of paper plates and plenty of napkins! Something about the fresh out of the oven experience is next level deliciousness ask for a little well done and it's off the hook! The lasagna is OMG! With the garlic bread! The meatball sandwich is my next choice! read more

Their pizza is so good it makes me feel like I am back in Brooklyn. The people who work here are always really warm and welcoming.

This place was great! There's a small side parking lot. This business is CASH ONLY!! The pizza is delicious and NY style this crust. One slice is $3.80 with tax. Cheese was delicious and Mike heated it up perfectly! Service was quick and polite. No seating inside or outside so really just takeout only. read more

The Coop Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Went for the first time last night and I regret that I waited sooooo long to do so! I believe this will now be a new "go-to". This is a local, mom + pop, old-school, family-run pizza place, take out only. When I say old school, I mean old school! They are super low-tech like the 1950s, so if you want contactless, no human interaction order taking, and food delivery service, multitudes of payment options, this is NOT for you! They do phone orders only, pick-up only, and CASH ONLY! If you want a menu, take a pic in the store. See the pic I took last night so you know the deal They don't waste money on extra stuff like paper menus, knives, forks, etc., that people end up throwing away. We ordered a large mushroom/olive pizza for the 2 of us and we were over the moon! A couple of things to note so plan accordingly: it's a very popular, local spot so it took me several times of calling before they answered the phone. When you order, count on 50 minutes to one hour before your pizza is ready. Believe me, it is worth the wait! read more

one of my favorite pizza joints. run by a couple who have been working there for decades, they're always so friendly with fast service. the woman always asks me cheerfully how my day is and calls me sweetheart, she warms my soul. the crust is simultaneously chewy yet crisp on the outside, and the toppings meld perfectly into the cheesy saucy pizza. i always get pepperoni mushroom here. read more

The pizza is made in house and the people running this business are the absolute nicest!! Really solid pizza and I felt happy after interacting with the people working there because they are just so pleasant. Give them your business rather than any chain pizza restaurant please! read more

My last review is almost 10 years old and I can tell you Mike & Christina are amazing people who make an incredible pizza. Sometimes they're busy or taking a day off and it's cash only but roll with it, you will be back! Best pizza in West LA. read more

Amazing pizza and the owners are very nice. It's a cash only business. So please bring cash.

My parents lived nearby in the late 80s and used to buy pizza dough here to make their own pizzas at home. When I moved to the neighborhood they raved about The Coop. My husband and I will pick up a Large or XL Everything pizza when we've had a tough week and just want some delicious leftovers to look forward to. Christina and Mike are always there, always kind and chatty, they know their regulars so well. I love supporting this small business and the quality is so far beyond a Domino's or a Pizza Hut. Worth every penny. This Eater LA article on them is spot-on: https://la.eater.com/2024/9/19/24247366/coop-pizza-palms-culver-city-los-angeles-new-york-style read more

To me this is the... Best pizza. Best people. Best prices. Thank me later... Plus they have parking. read more

Just felt like I needed to update my review. I'm coming here for 25 years when Mike was just a worker here. I think he was 21 years old back then and this place has the best pizza. I gotta tell you the sauce is so delicious , the crust perfect crunch , everything was so fresh. The owners are both so nice. It's a little hole in the wall that you would never know is so fantastic. Highly recommend the pepperoni and the cheese pizza is what we get.. read more

I pass by The Coop every day, and it's wild I haven't tried their pizza until now! I ordered their pizza-by-the-slice to go: two OG cheese and one with mushroom (extra 75 cents per topping). It's cash only, so don't be a fool and try using your credit card like I did! The pizzas really hit the spot: crispy crust outside followed by a chewy, tender inside. Cheese and mushrooms were fresh, greasy, and decadent...certainly a guilty pleasure! Even more incredible that it's a reasonable $3/slice (given inflation in LA...). If I ever have another pizza craving, I'll know where to go next time! read more
