At Square Pie, we talked pizza, business, and something that doesn’t get discussed enough: building a life you actually enjoy.

The owner told me:

“I love doing this every day.”

He makes pizza, walks his dog, picks up his kids, comes back for dinner service, and even closes early on Sundays so he can watch football.

That’s what I love about independent pizzeria owners.

Not everyone is trying to build 20 locations.

Some people just want to make great pizza, serve their community, and create a business that fits the life they want.

And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. 🍕❤️

“How many cheesesteaks do you make on a Friday night?”

“Over a thousand.”

🤯

is one of those places that’s just dialed in. A couple hundred pizzas during the week, 400-600 on weekends, and over 1,000 cheesesteaks on a busy night… all out of one shop in Philly.

What I liked most? No plans to expand. No “we’re opening 10 locations” speech. Just focused on doing this location really, really well.

Also one of the few spots that does both pizza and cheesesteaks at a high level.

Full video is up on YouTube if you want to see the operation, the pizza, and how they handle that kind of volume.

Justin from Apollonia's Pizzeria said something I think a lot of shop owners need to hear.

Most shops don’t have a sales problem. They have a complexity problem.

Too many sizes. Too many toppings. Too many things sitting in the walk-in waiting to go bad.

A smaller menu fixes more than food cost.

Staff gets faster because they’re repeating the same motions all day.

Customers order quicker because they’re not standing there trying to process a giant menu.

The product gets more consistent because the focus stays on doing fewer things really well.

At their second shop they cut the 14-inch pizza completely and went to just 20-inch pies and slices.

One dough weight. One system.

And according to Justin, maybe one person complained.

Most of the things operators are afraid to cut usually aren’t helping the business anyway.

I asked Juan at Pizza Expo if he was wearing Meta glasses. Meta should sponsor us 😂

He said yeah, and honestly we’ve sold a s**t ton of them after doing that podcast with him.

People saw how he was using them for training videos, tutorials, behind the scenes stuff, and it just clicked.

It’s one of those things that sounds gimmicky until you actually see somebody using it the right way.

This is what showing up looks like. 👰 🍕🤵

Amici Brick Oven Pizza () in West Palm Beach was hired to cater a wedding. Slice helped make sure every box said exactly what the moment deserved.

Custom printed. Delivered on time. “Happily Ever After” on every lid.
The result? Tears. A trunk full of pizza. And a memory that lasts a lifetime.

This is how independent pizzerias outdo the chains: showing up for their community in ways that actually matter. (And when you’re on Slice, you don’t do it alone.)

Congratulations Claude & Monique. 🤍

“My 5 year goal is for absolutely nothing to change.” - Anna Crucitt (.crucitt)

Not every pizzeria needs to grow.

Anna Crucitt made a decision 2 years ago that most entrepreneurs would never say out loud: her 5 year plan is for nothing to change. No new locations. No scaling. Nothing bigger. Nothing more.

In an industry that glorifies growth, that might be the boldest move of all.

Year 3. Still standing. Still hers. 🍕
