Thin-crust pizza is made by several of Madison's older pizza places. It is often cut into squares rather than wedges.

In Madison

  • Buck’s Pizza (1960) has a "thin, flaky crust covered with thick tomato sauce", and the pizza is "cut into bite-sized squares"[1].
  • The Pizza Oven (1964) made "good pizza with a thin, crisp crust"[2].
  • Pizza Pit (1969): in 2014 a writer described another shop's regular crust as "about Pizza Pit-thin"[3].
  • Pizza Extreme (1991) had hand-tossed thin crust, which a reviewer found "a slightly doughier crust" than Pizza Pit's, and at first no thick crust at all[4].
  • Pavlov's Pizza (1991) cut its thin crust pizza "into squares instead of triangular slices"[5]. A reviewer in 1991 wrote that the crust "was like bread that had been browned before the toppings had been put on"[6].

Not quite thin

  • Gumby's crust was hand-tossed and "a lot thicker than other people's regular crust"[7].
  • Glass Nickel Pizza's crust was described in 2002 as "middling thick, not a meager wafer nor a doughy sponge"[8].
