The best pizza in Brooklyn.
Every one from my own visits, updated September 2026. 11 places.
Narrowing down Brooklyn’s best pizza is a fool’s errand bound to cause an argument. The borough has the lion’s share of detour-worthy pies so if you’d like to tackle the endeavor yourself, allow me to share my personal list of the best pizza in Brooklyn.

The seal
If you're on this list, this is yours.
I went, and I said in my own words that it's worth your time. Nobody paid for that and nobody can. The seal says so, and it links back here, so anyone who sees it reads the whole list and how I decide.
Put it on your site, in the window, on the menu. Keep it linked when it's on the web and keep the words on it. That's the whole ask.
The files
SVG, lightSVG, darkPNG, lightPNG, dark
SVG for the web, the 1200 px PNG for print and social. Both carry the year.
Is one of these yours? and I confirm it's you and send the files.
