The Pizza Joint (7706 Milwaukee Ave) is now open in Lubbock and is already receiving stellar reviews from locals, like this one:

Love the crust. Can’t wait to come again. So kid friendly and the patio area is nice. Struggled to finish one slice! The salad was very fresh and had lots of pepperoni. The wings are baked so you don’t have to feel guilty eating so many. Very delicious.

What Makes The Pizza Joint Different?

Lubbock has plenty of pizza options, so what makes The Pizza Joint different, besides its fun theme? For one, The Pizza Joint answered Lubbock's call to have pizza available for sale by the slice. There are other places, like Giorgio's, that do this, but not enough for a town this size.

Also, The Pizza Joint has plenty of options, including Take-And-Bake pizzas, vegan personal pan pizzas, and gluten-free options, in addition to their regular lineup. They also have some house pizza flavors that sound quite exciting, like Hott Boxx (there's that theme again), The Burnout, Mexican Confetti, and more. You can see their menu here.

The Pizza Joint, A Regional Favorite

The Pizza Joint began in El Paso, Texas (we love a Texas-born business) and expanded to three locations there. It is now also in Horizon City and in Lubbock, making this a tight-knit regional mini-chain.

The vibe at The Pizza Joint seems to be a place where you can hang out, drink a beer, possibly hear some local music, and add your artwork to the walls. So while pizza in generally associated with delivery (and it is available here) this might be the perfect place to chill for a bit while you enjoy those joints and spliffs (these are pizza appetizers, what were you thinking of?).
