An absolute Lawrence staple. We used Papa Keno's for our October 2024 wedding and it was a hit with all of our guests. They raved about it during and after the wedding! I would note that it's best to go in-person and request to speak with a manager so you can get a good point of contact if you need to do any additional communication because the "contact us" form on the website did not ever lead to a response. When we went in person we were informed that often those inquires end up in an unmonitored email. The EZ cater system was easy to navigate to place the order and make modifications. The only complaint I have with it is that it allowed us to originally place our order as delivery and we were later informed that we were outside of the delivery range despite EZ cater saying the address could be delivered to. Luckily, we were told that right after submitting the order so we had plenty of time to come up with a plan to get the pizza to our venue. I'll continue to happily support Papa Keno's and eat there as often as I can!

My husband and I took our two teenage boys for dinner the other weeknight. 2 pies and 3 sodas cost about $95 before tip. Yeesh. The pies were yummy & fresh, but it seems like the sauce was spread very thin, and the cheese was also pretty thin, compared to PK pies we've had in years past. The crust was top notch, and service was friendly, but for the price point, about anywhere else would serve our family better for pizza.I can definitely see a single person, buying a slice or two, and getting a good deal, but for hungry families- not so much.

Absolutely amazing pizzeria! They have a sign that says slices as big as your face & they are NOT lying! The menu is pretty extensive for a pizzeria - so many options to add! The seating options are plentiful - right outside on Mass Street to people watch (or watch the Old Fashioned Christmas Parade, which is what we did!) or in a table or booth inside. The service was prompt. The ingredients- including dough - are FRESH! Check out the area you can see them making pizzas, it's pretty cool!

This may not have been our original destination, but we are sooo glad we ended up here for our lunch before the KU vs BYU football game!We took advantage of the specials with one order being Canadian Bacon/ Pineapple slice, mozzarella bread sticks & a drink. We didn't realize how big the slices were and got the Tuskeno based on the servers recommendation. It was a tough call on which slice was better as both were amazing. We probably didn't need the breadsticks with how large the slices of pizza were (even though they were house too). We are from Overland Park and hope we can enjoy that location as much as our time at the Lawrence location. Regardless, when we are in Lawrence, this will be on our list of favorites.

3.5 stars. We ordered online and had the food delivered. The pizza arrived warm-hot with a wonderful thin crust and good toppings. Mama Kenos (18" $31.99) with spinach, feta, roma tomatoes, garlic and romano cheese. One suggestion is either double/triple the red sauce or give some on the side if worries about it getting soggy. There was so little sauce we thought at first there wasn't any. The greek salad was good also with a lot of toppings but the dressing seemed like kraft italian. A good dinner.

The first time I ordered here I wasn't a fan. What I realized is that it's best to just order slices of the options they have that sound good to you. Then go from there. If you like pepperoni, you really won't regret the industry pizza. Enjoy :)

Our first visit to Lawrence and this place was recommended by a friend who is a KU alumni. Loved the thin crust and fresh ingredients. The Columbo was good but a bit heavy on the garlic. The works was fantastic but opted to do it without onions and green peppers. Lots of options on beers too was a nice bonus. If our niece decides to go here we'll definitely be back. I'm sure it's a longer wait on game nights and weekends.

Although all the food and pizza were good (pizza was delicious), we were not provided greek salad, but rather mixed greens with a few black olives and pieces of feta. It is sad, but most restaurants do this. If you are going to advertise greek salad, then provide greek salad. A greek salad has no lettuce/greens in it. it is mostly made up of cubed pieces of tomato and cucumber, with some purple onion, loaded with kalamata olives, a few stuffed grape leaves, and covered in a thin layer of feta cheese. change how you make it, or take it off the menu.

Ordered pizza for takeout which was awesome as usual. Service was great as pizza was ready within the time frame provides. While we did not eat in ambiance is great and very family friendly!

Renting an Airbnb upstairs from this place. We were starving, walked through the door 9:40. Were told "We're basically closed". Sign said 10:00 pm. Customer service foul. Last night in Lawrence. Thanks for leaving us with a bitter taste as our last memory here.
