I know Little Caesars isn’t the best pizza in Springfield but….sometimes I just want some cheap pizza. Did the Little Caesars downtown close? It is the closest to me.

I don't know, but it's sad that there are so many food snobs on here that you felt you had to preemptively apologize for which pizza place you like lest you be lynched by an angry mob of Local Guides.

Seriously. As if Dominos or Pizza Hut are a step up in quality or something. It's like people who say "X Light beer is shit", but they drink another light beer. It's all mostly the same with slight differences for your personal taste to determine the best.

The one on kimbrough isn't open

The one in Nixa behind the Popeyes has the highest quality pie of any LC I've ever been to anywhere. Just an observation.

One at 4133 S National and one at 1540 S Glenstone.

Where is there a little Caesar’s in downtown? I’m trying to think of all the roads around I cannot place my finger on the location.

There was one on Kimbrough and Madison

Exactly!

I was just looking for a cheap eat tonight.

Also btw McSalty's is actually really bad, I would recommend Little Caesar's, it's good and cheap. Don't get McSalty's. I was joking about it being good.

That one hasn't been open in like two decades.
iced-macchiato OP t1_izkqnpi wrote
Um what? I have been there in the past year at least, if not more recently

Oh yeah, I forgot they did put one there. I thought you was talking about when it was at Kimbrough and Cherry.

Embrace your gutter palate my friend. When they wife is away it's a Sonic coney and tots for me.

Yeah it was next to Culleys when I worked at Bairs back in like 14/15 I would go to Culleys after work get smashed and then eat a whole LC’s. Ah those were the days when my responsibility was very thin.

The giant one that used to be the tire store?

I’ll get grief for this comment but there really aren’t many good pizza places in this town. I like IMO’s, Aris, and Maso’s but after those three it’s all pretty much the same.

Luco's closed a couple of months ago. Plans to be a food truck.
Try Garbo's Pizza in Chesterfield Village.

St Louis style thin crust with provel. If you like Imos you will probably dig this place. I prefer St Louis style pizza and this one is on my short list.
I'd also suggest Arris Pizza if you like greek pizza and gyros.

Good pizza places exist, you just have to find all of the local ones and try them and be okay when you don't like a place.

Yes. I remember when I experienced it all the way back in 2009. Had a friend that would not shut the fuck up about Shakespeare's pizza in Columbia.
Same_Transportation4 t1_izlsr4o wrote
Yeah it shut down a while back. I think they were having staffing problems. They were rarely open and when they were the place was filthy. For a while they had a sign saying it was “temporarily closed” but now it is forever closed

The wings are better than any quick pizza place for sure

Yes. Luco’s was good. Arris is another I agree with. I need to try Garbos

The Big Slice is good.

Yes, sometimes if people post about chain restaurants that aren’t ~gourmet~ or local, everyone jumps in to say how much better some other place is.

A lot of people like to shit on Papa John (I’ve seen all the videos and believe this was a setup by power/money hungry folks) but this dude was not just a pizza autist but someone trying to get cleaner and less processed ingredients in his pizza and was basically finding it hard to find food scientists and clean ingredient sources .
So much of not just pizza but food is over processed ingredients and seed/plant/vegetable oils… all BAD for you.
I eat about a meal and a half a day of a clean diet generally without that stuff and am satiated. I used to eat normal “American” classics and fast food non-stop and always be hungry. Do I spend $10 a day to be healthier and eating better or $10 for a SINGLE meal and feel like hell and trapped in a cycle? I pass by so many things I used to love in the store and don’t feel bad…I feel better .

I've never had their pizza but their wings are definitely better than the vinegar-laden stuff Pizza Hut sends out. Yeesh.

I could live on Sonic corn dogs. Maybe for only a year before I died from excessive sodium intake, but it would be a year filled with mustardy joy.

Spend a couple bucks more and get an ExtraMostBestest. The extra cheese and toppings really improve the quality.

They are actually my favorite

IMOS slaps. Casey’s pizza is the best in the state, imho

I’ve had Neighborhood and absolutely agree it’s delicious. However I just wanted a cheap pizza.
LurkingOakleaf t1_izom86j wrote
And OP is still getting chuckleheads being like “but THIS place has more cheese!”. Read the room people. It’s a shame.
LurkingOakleaf t1_izomafg wrote
OP already said they specifically want Little Caesar’s?
Wyldfire2112 t1_izop1jx wrote
ExtraMostBestest is Little Caesar's.
They have their "Classic" pizzas, which used to be the dirt cheap "Hot-n-Ready" stuff, and the ExtraMostBestest. The former are dirt cheap but skimp on everything, while the latter are a few dollars more but much more loaded.

Have you ever tried the chili cheese tots? It's the best of both worlds in one cardboard tray.

I’ll give you Casey’s for what it is. Gourmet, nah but pretty good pizza

Well, they are.
I don't see how it's even debatable.
Doesn't mean I hate on people who like Little Ceasar's. I would eat it if I was hungry, and it was available. I would enjoy it too.
AlphaTJH t1_j0c8733 wrote
Well, no. Pizza Hut is clearly a step down from Little Ceaser's.
