My favorite in STL! Chicago style - be warned it’s a ton of cheese and the sauce has a kick. They’ve renovated so not as divey, but you still order at the bar and have to wait 1+ hours...but worth it!

Michael Morgan

Damn I’m impressed! I needed to order a late dinner and this place stays open later than most. I got a thin (hand tossed) pizza with pep & sausage ... So bomb! Absolutely packed with flavor ????

Mike Bryan

I liked it but between the super drunk pizza guy sitting with us to try to tell a joke, & the barmaid coming over with a baseball bat and telling us to finish our beers , the experience was an odd one

Everybody that complains on here is wrong. Been here half a dozen times, Best Pizza and great service! Its a dive and the pizza is worth any wait. Pi sucks, this is Chicago w lots of toppings!

Holly Jean

This isn't Chuck E Cheese or Imo's or Pi. It's a neighborhood bar that happens to make pizza . But if you pronounce it Blacktharn then you probably love it as much as I do.

Try the Sausage Pizza - Chicago style sausage pizza #blackthornpub #24hourfoodgeek it usually takes at least an hour, but it's so worth the wait! (via @Foodspotting)

It's a dive, and you'll wait awhile for your pizza , but it is so worth the wait. They do Chicago style right and their pan and thin crust pizza are amazing too.

PJ Wascher

Great deep dish pizza ! Though you’ll have to be patient. Order at the bar top.

Riverfront Times

Pizzas can be ordered either thin or pan, but their most notable pie is the deep-dish, cheese-loaded Chicago-style. Read more

If you get the Chicago and like spicy sauce - EXTRA SAUCE is the key. It makes the pizza amazing. Also the Bacon and sausage are the best.

Hands down... this is the best deep-dish pizza in town . Just be prepared to wait for it (hang out & have a few beers ), or phone in your order before arriving.

Danielle Hohmeier

Known for the deep dish , but I recommend the party pizza . Comes on a huge, rectangle sheet tray! Either way, call ahead. You could be waiting 1+ hour for a pizza .

Sue Savage

Thin crust pizza was great! The sauce does have a bit of a kick but not too much. Just keep the water nearby.

$2.50 PBR and $8.00 pitchers of Bud/Bud Light. Schlafly Pale Ale/Winter ESB/Hefe on tap . Best Chicago style pizzas in St . Louis. Friendly bartenders.Come hang out and have a good time.

Brittney B.

Awesome Chicago style . Got someone from there to even admit it. Anyone complaining doesn't understand that it's a dive bar that serves pizza .

Michelle C.

Dive bar but oh man the pizzas are so good. Very cheesy Chicago style pizza .

Paul

Great pizza and drinks! Order in advance as I think they only have one oven!

This place is DELICIOUS!!! Friendly environment .

Erik Schwenke

Deep dish pizza usually takes 45-60 mins to make. Order in advance , and either carry out or dine-in when your pizza is ready!

I didn't like it, it tasted like a frozen pizza to me but my family loves it and raved about their supreme pizzas

mind-bending awesome pizza . Man vs. Food should come here and attempt to put away just a SMALL Chicago style ... I think Food would win!

Best Chicago style pizza in town . Better than Pi.

Terrible sauce on the Chicago style . Tastes like they forgot the tomatoes and just burned a bunch of herbs and spices together.
