Nick-N-Willy’s Pizza is tucked into the Quinpool centre, with the entrance up a couple stairs and leading onto Quinpool road. On the outside, they have a few chairs and tables with umbrella’s set up to accommodate customers on sunny days, and the typical inside setup for those wetter and colder days.

Peter’s Pizzeria
5391 Inglis St Halifax
Peter’s Pizzeria is situated only minutes from Saint Mary’s University, located near the corner of Inglis and Barrington, making it a great location for university students to grab a quick slice. Tucked into a small building, Peter’s Pizzeria gives the traditional sense of a small joint pizza parlor.
Alexandra’s Pizza
1263 Queen Street Halifax
So to kick off a new year of university, we decided to hit up the Coast’s 2006 Best Pizza Slice winner, Alexandra’s Pizza. Located near both Dal and SMU, coupled with its late hours, make Alexandra’s Pizza a great place for university students to get a slice whenever the craving hits them.
Tomavino’s Cellar Ristorante
5173 South Street Halifax
To anyone who has been to Tomavino’s recently, you know that they are the reigning champions of Halifax pizza, proudly displaying their trophy for the 2006 year in the entry way. Onto the restaurant itself, we walked down into the dungeon like atmosphere (at least, after being outside it seemed dungeony). After adjusting to the light however, it was actually not a bad looking place. Very nice atmosphere. I got a lemon *and* a lime on my beverage. Classy.
Salvatore’s Pizzaiolo Trattoria
5541 Young Street Halifax
First, let’s start with the actual setting itself: Salvatore’s tried to get that small Italian restaurant feeling going for it, and I must say it wasn’t too bad. Walking in, you could tell there was something different from the average pizza place in Halifax. They had a slightly sophisticated air, all the way down to the cloth napkins (although I’m not a fan of cloth napkins, but thats a moot point). They also included the best beverage known to mankind on their menu, the Italian soda. Mmmmm. I didn’t order one though, but thats what I get for not looking at the menu.
