Glens Falls might be a little city, but we’ve got a big love for our pizza. So, we enlisted the help of our Instagram and Facebook community to help us find the very best pizza in the area. Not surprisingly, there were a lot of opinions on the matter, but out of the many recommendations, there were a few clear winners.
And so, if you’re looking for the best pizza within 15 minutes or so of Glens Falls, we’ve got you covered. Read on for the top picks from your neighbors, and start planning your pizza night (we have to try them all now, don’t we?!).

#1 The Harvest
This was the top pick amongst those who responded! Readers love the sweet crust, flavorful sauce, and just the right amount of cheese.
There’s also a big nostalgia factor here - we got quite a few notes from people who have moved away from Glens Falls and list The Harvest pizza as one of the top things they miss from home! As one reader wrote in, “I live in Rhode Island and my family brings it to me because I love it so much!”.
It should be noted that while Rachael Ray did not weigh in on this poll, if she did, word on the street is that she would have picked The Harvest too. Just sayin’.

#2 Talk of the Town
A close second, Talk of the Town pizza has big fans as well! Their homemade dough and sauce were frequent mentions amongst lovers of their plain pizza, and there were quite a few votes for The Works (including sausage with “just the right amount of spiciness”), and the Buffalo Wing pizza served with bleu cheese. Bonus points for their location which makes for easy pickup in the city!

#3 Angelina’s
Another frontrunner, Angelina’s scored big for their thin crust pizza, with one reader noting, “It’s the closest thing to NYC style pizza in the area”. Large slices, crispy crust, and plenty of specialty pizzas (one reader swears by the Grandmah - a square pizza with a mozzarella base topped with tomato sauce, parmigiana, & oregano!). Oh! And they deliver!

#4 Queen of Harts
Regulars here love the consistency, flavor…and yes, the delivery, too! One reader declared this the “best tasting pizza in the area”, and there were quite a few who shared their love for the specialty pizzas, including the Joker (white pizza with ricotta and garlic), and the Hawaiian (with ham, pineapple, and bacon).

#5 Common Roots
Topped with everything from chicken parm to Italian sausage, the gourmet open hearth pizzas at Common Roots were a top choice amongst those who responded. “I like the combinations they come up with,” noted one reader, and another agreed, citing the 3B’s Knees as their favorite (which features hot honey, local bacon, brussels sprouts, and bleu cheese crumbles!). Whichever variety you choose, you can’t go wrong with a pie and a pint in their taproom!
58 Saratoga Avenue, South Glens Falls / Website
#6 Southy’s
Southy’s was another fan favorite, with top praises for their consistent quality. “Always consistently delicious!” said one reader, with another echoing, “Never hit and miss”. Important qualities in a pizza, don’t you think?! It doesn’t hurt that they just so happen to serve ice cream next door, which also got quite a few mentions. Pizza and ice cream - sold!
