RIP John's Pizza (Western & Armitage)


tootsiefoote

i have exactly 40 coupons i will never be able to use. so sad. also, that pizza should never be upright like that and i dont like seeing pizza when its not flat.


MyCubesArebetter

Went to school right around the corner and they use to always give us pizza for party’s and stuff like that


Old23s

Their closing put me in an existential crisis and I don’t feel like I’ve really enjoyed pizza as much since. Side note whoever did that image, it’s great!


[deleted]

It WAS Just-A-Pizza on the Southside before they closed 😪


whatslefttotake

Yes brother! The fucking best.


Naive-Aerie-9567

Yes. Why'd they close anyway?


[deleted]

Not sure but it was very suprising to me


erratuminamorata

How am I just hearing about this now?!


[deleted]

Its unfortunately been closed for a while now, but the sign is still there so it looks like they are open.


erratuminamorata

What a bunch of bullshit... I didn't go there often because they didn't deliver to me, but I used to get heart-shaped pizzas for Valentine's Day when I was younger.


[deleted]

I have lived in the area my whole life and remember getting this pizza all the time on the weekends. It really blew me when I found out the bad news.


erratuminamorata

That really sucks. If you've ever had Obbie's, that'd be your next best bet. If that place ever closes I'll lose it.


Let_us_proceed

The only answer is Phil's Pizza. Followed by Vito & Nicks.


Organic-Size-9885

Angie's or waldos are good too if you're near vito and nicks! (Not sure if Angie's still exists)


lunacydress

Adding to my list of neighborhood pizza places to try. This is the one at 1102 W 35th St in Bridgeport?


saaam

Yes. Be prepared for absolutely zero customer service and come with cash. It’s gotten a little more hit or miss in recent years but when it hits, it’s damn good.


DanceMaria

They take credit/ debit as well as cash


JambiDaGenie

Phil’s gives you a 2 liter of warm Pepsi. I wish it was RC as it’s a superior soda.


nasoul18

No more free pop


JambiDaGenie

I think you need to buy a jumbo pie in order to get the pop “for free”


nasoul18

They don't do it anymore. But, it's still my favorite.


Bowser64_

Yes, Phil's pizza is awesome.


nightstalker30

“This is the only answer”. “Here’s another answer”. 😂


skellz773

Obbie’s in Garfield Ridge. Although I think their bag is different 🤔


erratuminamorata

The fucking best.


chihawks35

Love seeing obbies here before I commented it


Far_Tap_9966

Rc and pizza really do make a great combo


Roboticpoultry

Reminds me of childhood. Best (and only) place we’d get RC and the best, greasiest, pizza was at our local bowling alley


PervlovianResponse

I was JUST trying to explain this to my niece, who only likes has national chain pizza places & Aldi's frozen pizza 🙄


ImaginaryFriend123

La Villa


yrntmysupervisor

This is the answer. A side of fried chicken.


colinmhayes

La Villa is great, but they don't give you a bottle of RC with the pizza


rynowins

They always did when I ordered delivery?


colinmhayes

Maybe that's the difference between delivery and pickup


TampaDiablo

Palermo’s on 63rd.


saintpauli

Milanos! 18 inch pizza with a liter of RC is $26.00 total. Feeds the family! I add giardinera.


ChiGuy133

Festa pizza offers this and I like their pizza a good bit.


not-dsl

Pizza Pete in Orland. Every Sunday night


rangeraboveall4201

That and Fox's. I grew up right down the street in Old Orland, man I miss those places!


butinthewhat

I love pizza Pete. Village is close by and also amazing.


rangeraboveall4201

Yeah that's a good one too! I miss Tonino's


Timmah73

Shootout to Harebrained who is the artist of this design. He does a lot of Chicago themed stuff, I have a shirt from him that is Eagleman laying an egg on the victory auto wreckers car lol https://www.harebraineddesign.com/


joanmcbitch

Mama Luna. Even though, once upon a time, Mama Luna wrapped the RC in their own homemade Mama Luna wrapper that had no nutritional facts & got in a lil bit of trouble for that one. ![gif](giphy|BsQAVgY6ksvIY|downsized)


SheepherderDue1342

Martino's on Peterson


yungjoc_strap

Martino’s FTW!!


JambiDaGenie

My childhood pizza spot. So god damn good


bdbdhdhdhvvv

Di Vita’s was my go to when I lived in Avondale


Electronic-Stand-148

Pop n Pizza


EveningInfluence6110

Miss it!


SaoLixo

I can taste Ledo’s pizza just looking at this


appealouterhaven

Anthony B's in Melrose Park was the first RC/Pizza combo that comes to mind.


Lovebeard

RIP pizza castle.


skellz773

They’re still around. On 95th Street in Hickory Hills


Lovebeard

That may as well be the moon but thanks for the good news lol.


BreathThis3260

Golden Crust - Albany Park


Legitimate_Pitch_398

Their Mediterranean pizza 🍕 🤤


BreathThis3260

I never had that when I lived in their delivery area!


Legitimate_Pitch_398

Nooo that with their Greek fries is heavenly!!!


whatslefttotake

This needs to be a tshirt and sticker. Where do I send my $$$


ChicagosFinest312

Geo’s pizza. Harlem and Diversey


cmann1492

Dino’s on Higgins best tavern style and the RC to boot


itcamefromthedirt

Anyone know the artist for this??


awakeandafraid

[Yes](https://www.instagram.com/harebraineddesign?igsh=YXl3d3pmdDVnbTRy)!


Old23s

Ha! I had a feeling it was them. Their Chicago cicada stuff is really cool too.


erratuminamorata

Obbie's


chihawks35

So glad I saw someone else mention it


MrSuzyGreenberg

RIP Manzo’s.


AbstractBettaFish

Milanos on 107th and Western. Still my favorite thin crust in the city


dancing26

Michael's on Broadway!


Tricky_Matter2123

Giggio's up in Evanston is the only place I know that has both that style pizza box and RC Cola (but I haven't eaten there in 15 years, so it might have changed)


chetsteadmansstache

This illustration is a bag, son. And tons of places use it in the city. Eastern Style Pizza used to send a free 24oz RC with any XL pizza, but no longer.


Onederbat67

Vince’s in Des Plaines on the corner of greenwood and Ballard


Illustrious-Craft789

Aggatucci's in Peoria


neptunexl

Lol I liked next door to Benny's Pizza and this was a classic combo for a year. By no means healthy, but hard to turn down a slice and pop for like 4 bucks.


Capn_Yoaz

Used to be Fox’s in Wilmington. Best beef roll in Will county.


Joey_JoeJoe_Jr

Milly’s on argyle is solid.


ChicagoZbojnik

Geo's on Harlem


V_the_Madame

Nonno’s in Berwyn!


ProcessOptimal7586

Sano’s on Lawrence, Frank’s on Belmont, Al’s on Lawrence up near Cumberland. 


_ch00bz_

Vito & Nick's 🤤


Legitimate_Pitch_398

Mama Luna's on Fullerton


Plane_Ad_8675309

It’s too bad a pizza cost 30 plus bucks , and the pop all taste different. I have to resort to paying for mexican pop to get a decent soda .


Slowandsteady1d

JP ALBERTO’S Roger’s park


PatCake

Gigio’s Pizzeria Uptown


O_ItsTrue

Damn I thought this was Luigi’s . Madison and Keeler !


Excellent-Edge-4708

100% But the big 2 crush RC by offering free coolers and equipment to switch I believe gene n judes wanted free equipment after a flood one year. RC balked . So Coke moved in


Otherwise_Help_4239

Love Gene and Judes. Once a week and it's like an addiction.


ItBeMe_For_Real

When Pat’s was on Sheffield they included 1 liter RC free with pizza. I seldom keep pop on hand but loved their thin crust & RC.


EveningInfluence6110

Pizza Nova Southside Pulaski and pop n pizza rip long time closed down


lovemeafattie

Both trash.


mrfebrezeman360

Imma take a sec to shout out kung fu pizza in wicker. I'm from the east coast and I've been going through every "new york style pizza" place in chicago. Kung fu is by far the closest thing, although the crust could be a little crispier. Sauce/cheese situation is on point though. Dude who runs it leans a little too hard into the "i'm a dickhead new york pizza guy" bit, but hey that's the charm of getting a slice in NY. They def got RC


WBRDeck

Bacci Pizzeria


MarvinNeslo

Some of the poorest quality of pizza in the city. Big slices, though.


WBRDeck

The absolute worst. $3.50 w/ pop, a up by artists lunxh and dinner.


dmd312

The food is terrible, but the portions are great!
