It’s the pinnacle of food holidays telling you what you already know. 1) You’re going to eat pizza this month. 2) Pizza is delicious. Still, since you’re going to be ordering pizza anyway, you might as well know about the buffet of pizza deals that shops are offering in celebration of National Pizza Month. You’ll find deals at local pizzerias and big national chains. Though, remember that with many restaurants struggling through the pandemic, you can help out your favorite shop by ordering directly from the shop instead of through third-party apps whenever possible.
Here are the Best Deals you’re going to find during National Pizza Month.
