Calgary has some great pizza places........I eat healthy but pizza is my one treat that I could not live without. I avoid all franchises like Domino's, Panago etc. Papa John's is the only one I'd ponder.
Here's my favorites in no particular order,
- Michael's Pizza (10 Ave & 1 St SW).......I recommend going before a Flames game and it is littered with awesome Flames stuff on their walls. Michael himself is a life time season ticket holder and a friendly gent. If you watched old 2&7 Flames games you'd recognize him as his seats were often panned in the crowd after a goal. The Michael's Special is my favorite.
- Mannie's (17 Ave and 8th St SW).........Mannie's All-Meat is the best meat lover pizza out there! Also, not too far from the Dome for a pre-game meal and is open until 4 am on weekends (delivery only) for after the pub!
- Gus's Cafe (across from the Foothills Hospital)......my grandma was in the hospital for a while a few years back and I lived off their pizza when I visited. I recommend Gus' Special!
- Nick's Steakhouse.....my pre-game pizza joint for Stamps games. Nick's Special is where it's at.
- Tom's House of Pizza........my new favorite pizzeria since I am now in the deep SW and not downtown for Michael's and Mannie's. The commericals on the Fan 960 don't lie!
