Pizza Menu Guide: How to Choose the Right Pizza for Any Occasion

Ordering pizza sounds simple. But when you’re looking at a full pizza menu, picking the right thing for the moment makes a real difference. Lunch for one, dinner for the family and food for a crowd all call for different orders.

This pizza menu guide walks through how our Patchogue customers usually choose, based on what the pizza is for.

Picking From the Pizza Menu for a Quick Lunch

When you’ve only got a few minutes, you want something fast and filling that you can eat on the go.

Good lunch picks:

• A regular slice ($3) or a Sicilian slice ($3.50)
• A white slice ($4) if you want something different
• Plain cheese or pepperoni to keep it simple

Lunch is about speed, so stick with what you know and you’ll be in and out.

Pizza for Family Dinner

Family dinner needs something everybody agrees on. That’s where a little variety helps.

A lot of families go with:

• A mix of classic and specialty pies
• Whole pies to share, like a cheese pie ($16.95) and a one-topping ($18.95)
• A couple of sides to round it out

A couple of plain favorites plus one specialty, like the Margherita ($24.95), usually keeps the whole table happy.

Pizza for Groups and Get-Togethers

Feeding a group takes a bit of planning. We see a lot of group orders for game nights, casual get-togethers and small celebrations around Patchogue.

Tips for group orders:

• Get a mix of flavors
• Order a little extra so you don’t run out
• Add sides that are easy to pass around

A group order is also a good time to look at our catering menu. Full trays like baked ziti ($60) or chicken parm ($65) go a long way next to a few pies.

Pizza for Parties and Events

Pizza works for parties because it’s easy to serve and almost everybody eats it. Going with crowd favorites takes a lot of stress out of hosting.

For events, most people go with:

• Classic pies that kids and adults both like
• Simple toppings everybody recognizes
• Easy pickup or ordering ahead of time

Order ahead and everything’s ready when your guests show up.

Look at the Whole Menu

A good pizza menu has more than pizza on it. Pasta, heroes, wraps and sides give you options when people want different things.

That really helps when you’re:

• Ordering for a family
• Feeding kids and adults together
• Hosting a casual get-together

Chicken parm with spaghetti is $17.95, penne vodka is $15.95 and heroes start at $11.95. There’s something for the person who doesn’t want pizza.
