The original Village Idiot Pizza location has become a fixture in Five Points ๐ This location opened in 1990, launched by three friends from New Jersey who lovingly referred to themselves as โthe village idiotsโ in the neighborhood ๐ Drop a ๐๐ผ if this location is your go-to!
Village Idiot Pizza, like so many, is struggling w/ staffing shortages & supply chain issues. In an effort to better serve our customers some of our menu will be temporarily unavailable. We appreciate your patience & understanding as we navigate thru these nationwide obstacles.
We decided to *treat* Five Points to a nice face lift for our 30th ๐คฉ Starting with our kitchen.. hereโs some before and after shots! How many pizzas do you think have gone thru this kitchen?? ๐
We call โem Dough Pillows because after capping your meal with these babies youโll be ready for a NAP ๐ด 5 fried Beignet dough pieces tossed in sugar! Available all December long๐ฅ
DYK owners Brian and Kelly Glynn both worked at Village Idiot Pizza in their 20โs before purchasing the restaurant in 2003? Pop in today for a bite while shopping local!
