A Bite of Madison: Glass Nickel Pizza Co.

Madison doesn't suffer from a shortage of delicious pizza places, and Glass Nickel rates among the best. Trekking to Glass Nickel is not suitable since its nearest locations to campus are on Atwood and past Copps on University, but the environmentally friendly delivery trucks can make you feel at ease. Their trucks run partially on used vegetable oil. 

 

The pizza at Glass Nickel is superb if you stick to their many specialty pizzas. Typically a devout meat pizza eater, I seriously cannot get enough of the Fetalicious pizza. Other excellent options include the all-meat pizza (aptly named Cardiac Arrest) and uniformly spicy Border-to-Border.  

 

In addition to the tasty pizza, Glass Nickel also has an amazing appetizer called Nickel Nuggets: soft and chewy fried pizza dough topped with Parmesan and parsley for dipping in marinara sauce. 

 

Glass Nickel is a wonderful option for your next pizza night in the apartment, or as a suggestion for your next student org kickoff or lunch seminar. 

 

Overall 3/4
