Backroom Pizza

$1 pizza? Yeah you heard it right.I'm going to go out on a limb and say this is my preferred pizza by the slice near South U. Cheaper than pizza house, and easier to eat than the messy South U Pizza. Cheese pizza is $1, pepperoni a little more. They offer many combo deals where you can get a drink and two slices of pizza for a low price. They even let you buy the whole pizza right on the spot and put it in a box for you to goIf you come really late during a Friday or Saturday there will likely be a wait down the block. The pizza makers move the line very quickly though. Never have had to wait more than 5 minutes.There's a $5 minimum credit card charge but it's easy to spend over $5 if with friends. The place is SMALL. Fits maybe 6 people in line, no place to sit down inside. There are some tables outside if the weather is nice. They chain down the parmesan cheese and red pepper if that tells you anything about the crowd.

Okay, it's not the best pizza in the world but it's about the only place where you can get an affordable slice of pizza. When you and a friend are out and want a quick bite, it's nice to be able to get one slice rather than an entire pizza.

During the day, Backroom isn't usually too busy. The pizza doesn't have much sauce, and I think that's part of what makes it so good. It's the same pizza that the Brown Jug makes, and for only $1 for pizza, and $1.50 for a pop, it's the best place to go for just a slice or two of pizza.The ordering room is very small, with only a counter, small area, and poop dispenser, but during the day, it's no problem. They have a picnic table just outside if you're looking to eat there.

The perfect place to go if you want pizza that is cheap and greasy. The slices are decently sized and filling. The pizza definitely is not gourmet, but it's good for the price. It's a great place to go late at night when you're craving something quick and easy to eat.

I discovered this place one drunken night coming home from a party as well. All I did was follow where my nose was leading me. I don't know if it was the effects of alcohol that enhanced my tastebuds but Backroom Pizza is probably one of my top choices for tasty, cheap pizza. It's opened late and so if it's 3 am and you swear you will murder someone if you don't get food ASAP (always the case for me), then you can always count on Backroom. There usually is a long line of drunk, hungry, rowdy college kids so it's quite an endeavor to get past the line but the reward is well worth it. Come right before they close and sometimes the nice staff there will even give you a whole pizza pie for a few bucks!I reccomend sprinkling on a load of parmesan cheese and chili flakes to further enhance the flavor. I have to warn you, the grease literally drips from the pizza crust and will make your napkin transparent. I had it when I was sober and I felt quite sick after, but when you're drunk, who gives a damn.

This place WILL JIP YOU IF YOU ARE DRUNK please be aware I know got 3 pieces but because I was drunk they charged me for 4. I questioned it but I was too drunk to fight it. Yes they WILL cheat you so please have cash ready. They take advantage of drunk students so be cognizant of that. It's unfair & illegal. It's a fraudulent business so please have cash set aside.

The pizza was averages but the service was poor. The guys had an amazing attitude just because I asked for a box. They have absolutely no option for to go. I guess they want you to trek across campus holding a soggy slice of pizza. He literally flung the pizza in the box, didn't close the lid and just left it on his side of the counter and left. This kind of sh***y attitude is amazing

Great pizza and super nice staff. Been a while since I have been here but still good food.

2 years ago I would've given a 4 star for backroom. Since then they changed recipes and cut the pieces into quarters instead of sixths or eighths. Juan is the only reason this gets 2 stars instead of 1 now. Juan is a legend.

Great pizza, awesome service, and cool decorations. Definitely will be coming again! Keep it up Backroom!
