Nick’s Pizzarelli
Slices, hoagies, and the Colossal Calzone Challenge — feeding the Drive since 1974.
Nick’s Pizzarelli has been slinging slices on Wilton Drive since 1974 — which makes it arguably the strip’s oldest continuously operating institution of any kind, predating the gay village itself. The formula is timeless: pizza by the slice, hoagies, and the Colossal Calzone Challenge for those who confuse dinner with sport.
Its true office hours are late: the post-bar slice is a Drive tradition older than most of the bars, and Nick’s remains the counter where nights conclude. Fifty years of drunk-food excellence is a moat no newcomer can cross.
At 2244 Wilton Dr it’s mid-strip. Menu at nickspizzarelli.com; see what else is still open on tonight’s list.
