This weekend, there are also multiple No Kings protests happening all over the state. The series of demonstrations is to show “this country does not belong to kings, dictators, or tyrants,” according to the No Kings website.

I asked you all to share your favorite pizza spots from around the state, and this is what you said:

🍕 Joe’s Fox Hut – Fond du Lac

“The best thin crust pizza! They have a special tangy sauce and the cheese, magnificent! Still has a Schlitz Beer sign hanging over entry way.” – Ann U.

🍕 Tony and Maria’s – Janesville.

“Take out and delivery only. Fresh ingredients with so much cheese!” – Patti D.

🍕 Wisco’s – Eau Claire

“It’s what I like to call the most Wisconsin place I have ever been to. There is also axe throwing which is also very fun. Their Midwest Deep Dish pizza is the absolute best.” – Paul L.

🍕 Dina Mia – Rhinelander

“Quality ingredients, very tasty, and cut into bite size pieces.” – Scott S.

🍕 Harry’s Prohibition Bistro – Sheboygan

“This is one of my favorite pizza places. The moment you walk in the smell of the wood fired pizza oven and the 1920’s decor brings you back in time. My favorite pizza is the Walnut pizza with Italian sausage, the burst of cream cheese with each bit adds an extra great flavor.” – Maryl L.

🍕 Bricks Neapolitan Pizza – Hudson

“Yummy pizza, amazing salads, fabulous service and locally owned and operated!” – Robin M.

🍕 Harry’s Pizza e Vino – Elkhart Lake

“I’m from LA but I have family local to Wisconsin. Every time I come I have to get pizza from the bistro because the crust is amazing and the beef marsala pizza is so unique and delicious.” – Diamond C.

Don’t forget to share your favorite burger spot—and tell us why—to be featured next Friday!
