I Tested NYC Pizza After Midnight: Is it Worth the Hype?
New York City is celebrated for its incredible pizza, but what happens after the clock strikes midnight? In the latest video, “I Tested NYC Pizza After Midnight,” Jon Barr and his friend Evan embark on a late-night pizza tour across the city to uncover whether late-night slices are a hidden gem or simply greasy disasters.
Starting their adventure at the iconic Artichoke Pizza, they dive into a decadent slice that combines spinach artichoke dip with layers of cheese—a staple for those seeking comfort after a night out. With the score set by late-night vibes and taste, their first stop earns a strong 8.3.
The duo then makes their way to Bleecker Street Pizza, known for its legendary Nona Maria slice, which combines mozzarella with a thick marinara. As Evan reminisces about past visits, they assess the ambiance and flavor, awarding it a respectable 7.8.
The journey continues with stops at Two Boots, a Louisiana-inspired pizzeria reflecting New York’s cultural fusion. While the creative toppings impress, they surprisingly give it a lower score of 7.8.
As they venture into the lower tier of pizza joints, the infamous $1.50 Two Bros Pizza is critiqued for its subpar quality. Ultimately, this stop leaves them unimpressed, settling for a dismal 4.5.
Wrapping up their adventure at East Village Pizza, they indulge in the “double stack”—a monstrous combination of buffalo chicken and pepperoni. With the atmosphere buzzing and the flavors exploding, this late-night slice stakes its claim as the champion, receiving a whopping score of 9.8.
Join Jon and Evan on this flavorful nighttime escapade to discover if NYC’s pizza after hours lives up to its status. From legendary institutions to wild slices, the quest for the ultimate late-night pizza experience is just a click away!
