I like the concept but that is were it ends. A Subway’s version of Pizza. I think the price you pay for what you get is lacking. Pizza tasted good. But definitely left hungry and wanting more. $ 7.99 for I would guess 9 inch pizza is not a value to me. Other reviews say is 10 inch pizza so maybe off by an inch. Also on a Saturday the freestyle soda machine was out of Coke and Dr. Pepper. The tables are only 2 feet apart if that. You feel like you are dining with people right next to you. Not a fan. It is a chain restaurant and to me can get just the same or better at any other pizza chain. First time visit and probably last for me. Others love it but left me disappointed.

I’d have to first start off saying that I am nearly a pizza connoisseur. I’ve had almost every type you can think of across the country at the most famous pizzerias. First walking into Your Pie the vibe is laid back and the staff were really nice. It’s kind of like Moe’s but with pizza. You pick your dough and all your ingredients. We had an improvised Margherita pizza. The sauce needs to be a little sweeter and the crust a little thicker horizontally. All in all it was a really great pizza. This is by far my favorite pizza joint in Georgia now. 3rd I’m the country behind flippers in Orlando and Lombardi’s in NYC

This is one of the best pizza places I’ve ever been to. It really sets the bar high for other pizza shops. You walk in and pick your choice of crust — white or wheat. They roll it out for you and toss it in the air while you decide on the rest. There are a dozen different cheese options and about 20 toppings to choose from. Once you’ve created your special combination, it goes into the oven for baking. The pizza comes out with a crispy crust and cheesy, gooey center. The customer service is nothing short of excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant. I will be back if I’m in the area again.

I recently moved back to the area and am a regular again. What a great staff they have, clean bathrooms for my 5 year old, and just in general accommodate my needs. Whether it’s handing my kid dough to play with in line or holding an open tab for me to add late guests they are so nice! Thanks guys A+

This place is so yummy! Hubby and I ate here yesterday for lunch and it was out of this world good! The guys making our pizza were so helpful and patient with me, had great knowledge of what people like to be able to make recommendations. The pizzas didn’t take long at all to cook and they brought them right over to our table. So so good! I never want to eat pizza not from a brick oven again.

Very poor service. We were the only people there and one person in our party didn’t get her pizza until everyone else in our table was finished eating. We watched as people who came in after us got their pizzas. No apology, no attempts to make it right even after pointing it out. Everyone at our table has worked in food service and that is not cool. We’ve been there many times over the years but won’t be going back.

The pizza here is really good. The people who work here are very friendly, helpful and clearly hard workers. The restaurant is clean and it is simply a fun environment to be in, I highly recommend it and I will definitely be back.

I love their pizza! It’s like a classy subway but for pizza! You can pick our the type of dough, sauce, cheese, and all the toppings your little heart desires! I have a lot of good college memories at this place!

Love this place! Convenient location for me to pop in for a tasty lunch – pizza, salads are delish! Using the app is great to pay and easy to use! Plus there’s great benefits to it! There’s also gluten fee and vegan choices!

To get something decent you end up spending a good bit more than the baseline price; the basic stuff is too plain to really enjoy. This is basically a Subway of pizza, so if that idea appeals to you then you’ll like it.

I always loved Your Pie and still love eating there when I go back to Athens because it’s a great place to get a fresh pizza. The dough is hand-tossed to order and then you watch your pizza get cooked in a brick-oven right in front of you as you stand in line. There’s no need to worry about a pie being made ahead of time and simply re-heated later with extra toppings — each pizza is handcrafted here. The selection of toppings is also outstanding. The variety of sauces, vegetables, meats and cheeses is something you wouldn’t find at most gourmet pizza restaurants in big cities. Your Pie offers them in a casual atmosphere at an affordable price. Actually, it’s much more than affordable. For what you get, this is a great deal. All the pies are 10-inches and most of them range from $ 7 to $ 9 depending on the toppings you want. One of my favorites is The Lineage, which features traditional marinara sauce, pepperoni, sausage, peppers, olives, onions, mushrooms and mozzarella. It’s a relatively traditional pizza, but it’s just one of a number of pizzas I’d recommend. The toppings are delicious and I love the texture and flavor of a pizza crust that’s been cooked in a brick oven. To make it even better, they also offer the option of a white, wheat or gluten free crust. When it comes to pizza, Your Pie has all the bases covered.

Like Pizza Hut’s personal pan pizza without the pan. Start off with picking your dough: wheat, white, gluten free. Wheat for me please! What type of marinara? They’ve got a hefty assortment: basic, spicy, thai style, etc. Unlimited veggie toppings. Yes please on that pineapple, broccoli, garlic, tomatoes, fresh basil, blah blah blah. About $ 1 extra for the primo toppings(mostly meat or cheese). Pop that pizza in their huge a$$ oven and voila! Pizza within 10 minutes or less. Tuesdays they’ve got a special going on where a drink and your pizza is $ 5. REALLYGOODDEAL. Highly recommend! If Tuesday night deals aren’t your thing, they also have buy 1 get the 2nd for ½ off(coupon books). And Fridays, if you order Terrapin beer, you get a free pint glass. Sweeeeet :)

And as the last place I ate in Athens before I drove to the West Coast, Your Pie holds a special place for me. They’re usually pretty quick to take your order though fresh-baking the pizza or paninis can be a bit of a wait. Fortunately, the results are usually worth it and the workers have always been really nice. I’ve tried a few kinds of pizza but I settled on The Nat as my favorite offering. The pesto sauce was especially tasty and most of the time they added the sun-dried tomatoes quite liberally. It may cost $ 8, but it’s enough to fill you up if you’re hungry and if you’re not it’s pretty easy to take portions home. I was disappointed by their paninis though, especially since the«side salad» is nothing more than a few lettuce leaves in a bowl and drenched with oil. I’m also a fan of their soft drinks because they have something I rarely see anymore– Cherry Fanta. You can mix it with Coke for an effective Cherry Coke or just enjoy the unusual cherry drink by itself and marvel in awe at the sight of something other than the standard soft drink lineup. For dessert, they’ve got a nice selection of gelato. It’s kind of random, but quite tasty. There’s also a small but cheaply priced selection of alcoholic drinks, specifically beer and wine. They also have free wireless internet, at least at the Baxter Street location, you just have to use their phone number as the password. Now that they’ve opened up new locations in Five Points and on Broad Street I’m quite jealous of the students now who get to partake in the Your Pie awesomeness every day.

After searching for the best pizza in Athens, word of mouth led me to Your Pie over its competitors. While I wasn’t blown away by the quality of the ingredients, their wood stone oven created a smoky, crispy crust which was a textural delight to eat. In regards to the ingredients, the marinara sauce was so-so and the basil I asked for was garnish rather than an ingredient. I also had the BBQ chicken pizza and found that pie to be pretty good. I think the price and the portions are justified although some may disagree. Feel free to get the wheat instead of white dough as the taste of the crust is rather negligible. A great, casual place to grab a bite to eat and will revisit at their 5 Points location.

Status: incredibly starving and unfamiliar with Athens. So, we trekked over to this little pizza place because we thought, Hey, how can pizza go wrong? Well, many pizza places CAN go very wrong, but I am happy to say that we really liked Your Pie. At first, we were a little confused as to how to order and I guess we looked pretty lost, since the employee there quickly offered to help. Both guys there were friendly and nice. Pizzas are about 10″ and you have choice of white or wheat… it’s kind of like making your own sandwich like at Subway, but at a much higher quality. Make your own, or pick something off the menu. You can get a pizza, panini, calzone, salad, and I’m probably missing something else… everything’s cooked up in the brick oven. The Ischia is a poor choice for a pizza(boring), but pretty yummy as a calzone. The Hippie pizza is delicious. Calzones are very crispy, thinner than typical calzones, and kind of pita bread-ish. Dough is very, very good. I would say that there is more dough than ingredients involved in these pies/calzones. We came at a weird time(2-ish pm), so there weren’t that many people. I would advise coming around then because by the time we left, quite a few people started to trickle in… and I can imagine the line lengthening since a lot of people like to make their own pie and will probably take an overly long time to decide on ingredients. They also have a gelato station with about 10(?) flavors to choose from, though I did not try those since I am not a gelato fan(ice cream FTW!). Good eat!

I recently accompanied a friend to the new location on Lumpkin. The employees were all nice, and I loved watching them make my pizza. There’s something very authentic about seeing a person’s shirt dusted with flour as he/she puts together a pizza and slides it into a brick oven. My friend ordered the Nat and loved it. I ordered the Ischia’s Pie, which honestly lacked a little flavor. I think it could have used some more basil. Also, my friend’s pizza was loaded with ingredients, whereas mine seemed sparsely strewn with tomato, mozzarella, basil, and the spinach I had requested be added. Too much bread, not enough toppings. I also noticed that the posted menu was much less extensive than the one offered online. Bottom line: I would recommend ordering something other than Ischia’s Pie, but I wouldn’t discourage anyone from giving this place a shot.

It was great, regardless(or as my beloved ignorant friends like to say«irregardless») of the fact that they offer a gluten free version. I continue. What was I doing in Athens, pray tell dear readers? Why, our eldest child, Bobo, is attending an internship she WON at UGA for biology stuff(something about phosphorescent foam or something like that). So, we all(self plus 5) loaded up the truck and we moved to Beverly. Hills, that is. We hit Mass at the UGA chapel and then went to this place. You go in, pick your dough(white, whole wheat, and gluten free) and then go from there. Pick your sauce, toppings, etc. It was mighty tasty. I got the whole wheat with a white sauce base, extra cheese, feta, pineapple, bacon, pepperoni, green pepper, sweet onions, and anchovies. YUMMO Had a local Terrapin beer and I was ready to curl up and snooze. All the rest of the fam did their gluten free thing and were loving life — we split a Caesar’s betwixt us and were members of the clean plate club(well, for some of them, eventually as it’s a whole pie).

Your Pie in one word? YUM! First, it seems that Your Pie has definitely worked out some of their service issues since Janet G. visited, as the staff the night of my visit were incredibly friendly, helpful, and did their best to make the entire experience well worth my 6 bucks. I got wheat crust pizza, with pesto sauce, mozzarella, spinach, baby bella mushrooms, tomatoes, and black olives. It was absolutely delicious. The pizzas are personal size(10inches), but mine seemed big enough for two. However, I somehow managed to finish the whole thing. And watching them bake in the oven as you wait to pay is strangely fascinating –consider it dinner and entertainment. The seating is mostly booths, so while the pay at the counter arrangement is convenient for groups, our group of 10 had to scramble a bit for adequate seating. I also have to give props for the really unique and beautiful artwork. They have some really striking paintings of downtown Athens that I would love to have in my apartment.

I find it very difficult to give Your Pie a solid rating. Let me just tell you a little story called«Janet and Jim Try a New Place.» Yesterday I was running errands with aforementioned Jim when our stomachs started rumbling and we knew food would be in our near future. «Let’s try that new Your Pie place,» I said. «I’ve heard it’s pretty good, and it’s nearby.» Done. We walked in and immediately started poring over the huge menu on the wall. Here’s the scoop on pizza: build-your-own pies start off costing $ 6.(An obvious blacked-out spot on the menu and the rumor around town would have you believing it costs $ 5. No longer true.) You pick one sauce(eight varieties), one cheese(but can order more for $ 1 each), ASMANYVEGGIESASYOUWANT, and some premium toppings if you desire(those run you $ 1/each). The folks stretch the dough, ask for your order, and make the pizza right in front of your eyes. Cool concept. Good value if you stick to veggies and one cheese. So the pizza I had(white dough, garlic olive oil sauce, mozzarella cheese, broccoli, black olives, roasted garlic, and red onion) was YUMMY. The side salad I ordered as a part of a combo was really small, served in a flimsy plastic bowl retrieved from the fridge. Next time, if I get a salad at all, I’ll add tons of fresh veggies to make it worth the price. Here’s the bad stuff: the workers seemed confused and haggard, and there weren’t that many people in there waiting for pizzas. The ordering process was confused; I was asked the same question by a few different people but then other issues(«what salad dressing would you like?) were never asked. A couple of to-go pizzas sat on the counter from the time we arrived to the time we sat down. Once I sat, I heard the to-go folks asking about their pizza status. «Oh, they’re right here!» said Delivery Girl. «You guys should’ve said something! They’ve been here!» Scolded because they were waiting patiently for her to call out their pizza order. Not cool. The longer we sat, the more frustrated we saw the staff become. The perpetually-open-mouthed, vaguely airheadish dough girl left and was replaced by someone who seemed in an instant bad mood. Somehow a pizza got lost in the shuffle and it was up to her to remake it. «White or wheat?» she asked her coworker, obviously put out she had to squeeze in another pizza. No response. «WHITE or WHEAT?!» she yelled rather unprofessionally before rolling her eyes and passive aggressively grabbing a ball of dough and slamming it on the counter. Not cool. So the experience wasn’t that great, but the pizza itself was yummy. Probably only worth the price if you get a basic pie with lots of yummy veggies on it and skip the extra cheeses and premium toppings – and don’t fall for the $ 3 salad + drink combo. Have a free glass of water and call it a day.
