Top Pizza Places in Beaumont

Pizza, it’s such a simple meal yet the taste can vastly vary. 

Most of us have developed a personal preference over time as to how we choose to order our pies. After all, the majority of Americans are introduced to pizza at a very young age. 

Any given week, millions of pizzas are sold in the United States due to the cheap price and convenience of delivery. 

There is no denying the iconic status of pizza. Whether it’s a crispy and thin pepperoni pie or 2-inch thick, deep dish supreme, not much compares to the oven baked deliciousness that is this Italian specialty.

In Southeast Texas, we are blessed to have several independent pizzerias to choose from any day of the week and they all have something unique to offer.Pizza at Crown Pizza

Crown Pizza
5535 Calder, Beaumont
(409) 899-9550

Crown Pizza may be small based on outward appearances, but the menu selection is loaded with impressive mixtures.

Located along Calder, this 450-square foot, locally owned Neapolitan-style pizzeria handcrafts each and every specialty pie for dine in, delivery, or carryout. It’s the only place in town that utilizes European imported ingredients.

What is Neapolitan pizza exactly? Originating in Naples, Italy, a Neapolitan pizza must include fresh ingredients. This means a basic handmade dough, fresh mozzarella cheese from cow’s milk, fresh basil leaves, extra virgin olive oil, and lastly, San Marzano tomatoes. The pizza is usually small in size and cooked at very high temperatures in a stone oven with a wood fire.

All this is why Crown Pizza elevates your average pizza experience.

Some of our favorite flavors include the “Cheeburger, Cheeburger,” which incorporates the use of yellow mustard instead of San Marzano crushed tomatoes, along with ground meat, pickles, and topped with crispy fries. It’s basically a deconstructed cheeseburger served atop freshly baked pizza dough. 

A true delight for local Cajuns, the “VooDoo” and “Boogie on the Bayou” are two pizzas you don’t want to overlook. It’s not so often will you find a pizza made with made with etouffee sauce and topped with fried frog legs, or a blend of seasoned cream cheese, boudin, slivers of Serrano peppers, and green onions.

This is truly one Beaumont pizzeria that must make your list. Did we mention they have Gluten Free options too?

New York Pizza and Pasta truly does have a menu that rivals most and also keeps loyal customers returning. The affordable eats served in an atmosphere that’s ideal for any date night or girl’s night out are why this family owned chain continues to be successful.
