"When Blue Pan opened its West Highland pizzeria in 2015, it started a rectangular, caramelized brick cheese revolution. Denverites loved it so much that we crowded the tiny parlor until they relented and opened a second, larger location in Congress Park. Still, many of us have probably never stepped foot in a Blue Pan, preferring delivery to braving the crowds. And that’s OK—however you get your Brooklyn Bridge with pepperoni cups, hand-pinched sausage, and creamy ricotta is between you and your pizza god. While more Detroit-style spots have moved in over the past decade, the OG is still our choice." - allyson reedy
