Residents List The Best Pizza Joints In Atlantic County
I'm not sure you can classify pizza as a comfort food. If you can't, well why ever not is lost on me. I think pizza is one of the best comfort foods out there. Don't feel like cooking dinner? Pizza. Need something to warm you up from the cold? Sure, soup's great, but pizza can do the same thing. Just make sure it's hot. Want something to fill your tummy after a long day swimming in the ocean? Pizza.
Pizza is one of my absolute most favorite foods. Isn't it everybody's though? I'm so lucky because here in South Jersey, we have some of the best pizza places in the entire country. You can go to every single county in South Jersey and find an awesome pizza shop.
Do you think it's because this are has such a high concentration of Italian influence? That's what I'm banking on. Whatever the reason, I'm happy a little slice of heaven is never too far away.
Now, as for which places have the best pizza around... that's all depending on who you ask. Everybody's got their own personal favorite pizza joint here in South Jersey. The people of Atlantic County are no exception.
Someone asked the people in the Atlantic County Eats Facebook group which pizza places are their favorites. Of course everyone had a different answer. I was able to look over all of them and pick out the ones people said were the best. After narrowing it down, it looks like there are 5 of them.
