If you want a quick bite to eat on the sidewalk or in Central Park, Pop's Pizza is a conviniant at 57th and 8th Ave. Because of the small size of this pizza shop, it will only hold three, maybe four people inside where you line up to place your order. After ordering you can move outside and what the small widow where they will raffle of the orders. I guess it will always look like a small crowd outside but it moves quickly. There are a decent selection of pre-baked pies with various toppings. The slices are quite large. There are a couple of small stand up tables if you need a tiny space to eat your slice. You may see, as I did (and we did!), people standing on corners, and benches or anywhere really with Pops pizza boxes chowing down a slice or two. The plan slice is quit large. It's very floppy when hot, cheese and sauce almost combine to make a thick tasty, creamy flavor that is just a touch sweet. It's really tasty pizza which may be made more tasty since if you find yourself at Pops you are probably quite hangry. They will ask 'for here or to go' even tho there is no seating. Assume to go means your pizza will be boxed up.

Great slice of authentic and fresh NYC pizza. The crust, the sauce, cheese and flavors will leave you satisfied. The red chilli flakes are fresh. Good vibes and good price for a slice. We tried the cheese and the spinach & mushroom. I love the garlic they add to their spinach and mushroom.

Needing to round out our NYC experience before going home we got a few slices to enjoy at Central Park. We got two meat lovers, one feta w/spinach, pepperoni with jalapeno and two sodas. They toasted the pizzas in the oven and placed in a box. The slices were a pretty decent size which was a nice surprise. I enjoyed the feta with spinach 100%. The meat lovers was a lot of meat. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy which I like. Next time I will do one slice as they are pretty big. Highly recommend this spot. Customer service was friendly and quick.

Goals are to do a pizza trip of New York. Let’s compare all the pizza windows and figure out which one is best. This could take a while. Now keep in a mind there are a lot of posers out there in pizza window world. Hot take but If they have to advertise their pizza deal (2 slices + soda = $6), they are probably not the best pizza in New York. Our first find on the first day was Pops Pizza. It’s off 7th/57th street next to a dry cleaner. There is construction going on at the moment but don’t let that deter you. Pops takes cash or card. They have a variety of pizza options. We got the jalapeño & pepperoni along with the margherita pizza. They warm it up and put in a box for us. Seasonings are all outside with garlic, crushed red pepper and Parmesan. You can easily walk to Central Park from here and enjoy your slice. Walking to Central Park gave us the perfect amount of time to let the pizza cool off a bit. We found q seat in the lawn and had our slices. It had a floppier crust, but the sauce and the toppings were well worth it. Even the crust was great to finish. Does this taste better in Central Park? probably. Does this pizza rank as one of the best, in my opinion yes. The variety, ability to take credit cards and proximity to Central Park let it take the cake.

Not exactly what I expected. The post says they have tables where you can sit and eat but there wasn't. One small stand and bench was all there was. Other people were a little disappointed also. Pizza was pretty good. Very crispy crust. Meat lover and Buffalo Chicken were tasty. The price of the pizza was expensive but it was somewhat worth it, I guess. Service was not so good. It was busy but that doesn't give a right to be rude.

Pops Pizza is a true gem! The service is fast and friendly, and you can tell they really care about their customers. The pizza is outstanding, fresh, flavorful, and made with quality ingredients. I tried the mushroom spinach slice, and it was absolutely amazing. Perfectly balanced, cheesy, and full of flavor. Easily one of the best slices I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend if you’re looking for delicious pizza done right!

Loved the pizza! Super fresh, crisp crust, delicious flavor. Do not expect to sit down and eat- it’s a counter service take out window! You can order in advance or get slices fresh! The team is amazing and super friendly! They provided paper plates, napkins and even filled up a little tub of Mike’s Hot Honey for us!! We took our pizza back to our hotel!

Super delish, hard working service. Polite and prompt. Tiny little dive pizza joint for take out. No place to sit or even walk. Order and wait in the sidewalk which is fine. They take their craft serious.

Close to the park and as good as it gets for a low key, sidewalk slice. We were at the playground in CP and yelped what was the best pizza around and this came up. We also noticed that several families had whole pies from this place at the park so we knew it had to be good. My son still talks about this place. He isn't a pizza aficionado but he likes what he likes and he loves this place. My wife got a slice she liked so much that she got another one

Excited to discover this "hole in the wall" Pop's Pizza, around the corner from Columbus Circle. The slice looked great and size for $3 bucks in this neighborhood was a good deal. My fresh basic slice came out quickly. That being said, while the crust was excellent for a classic New York slice, the rest disappointed with barely any flavor - possibly only faintly of cheese. (Perhaps just a bit more sauce or seasonings in the sauce would help!) As is, Pop's Pizza's cheese slice is world's worth the extra compared to one of those $0.99/1.50 awful options you may find close by! For me, I'm likely to opt for something elsewhere.

I was visiting a friend up near the park and I was hungry and wanted to grab some pizza. He had recommended this place because he said it was fast and I've never heard of it. It's a very small spot with a walk up counter. There was a little bit of aligned and really, no space in the place. The workers are super fast and they are pumping out a lot of pizza in here. They did have a lot of different varieties, but I just went with the pepperoni and the cheese slices. The cheese slice was three dollars, which is not terrible for New York City at all. I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. Definitely a hidden gem that I would try again.

Amazing slices. The square slice is honestly so so great. Coming back to get the pepperoni one

Solid pizza place and one of the most affordable bites in an otherwise pricey neighborhood. The vodka slice I ordered was $6.50 after tax, a great deal considering it spared me from a bout of hanger. There are a few standing tables on the sidewalk outside but no seating. Pizza was a little oily for my liking but tasty.

We went here on a whim for a quick bite. Pepperoni, meat lovers and their crust were SO good! Great price and friendly service too.

A literal hole in the wall place near Carnegie Hall, but the slices are correct. Large, great sauce and a good crunch to the thin crust. You have two dining options, eat at a tiny standing table or while you walk. Either is just fine when you want a solid NYC slice.

First time trying this tonight & wow it deserves its flowers. I'm from NY and a lot of the popular places are flooded with lines or just fell off. I saw the pics & reviews from yelp and thought no way. I use to live on the ave & decided to support them. Each slice I got...APPROVED. The pics I have arent that great so apologies on that. Once it got delivered the mushroom slice with carmalized onion & argula smell was soo good. I do wish there were a few more pieces of mushrooms on my mushroom slice though. Will be ordering again & again no doubt. I even texted some friends and told them about Pop's before I even finished eating.

Really good pizza spot that was near where I was staying. Highlight for me was the cheese slice as it was delicious despite its simplicity. Great chew on the crust as well. I also got the buffalo chicken which was also pretty good if you're into that type of slice. Finally I also ordered the pepperoni square slice which was okay. While the crust was good, I felt the dough to sauce/cheese ratio was a bit too much on the dough side. For me I'd stick to the slices. Definitely will be back next time I'm in the area!

[Food] - Vodka Sauce ($6.95): Yum! Crust was thin and crispy. Sauce was perfectly sweet and savory! [Service] - Friendly & helpful [Ambiance] - A small little shop where you order inside, pay, then pick up at the other window under a small canopy [Overall] - Would come back again to try their other slices!

Vodka pizza very flavorful, fresh, and thin crust. No line, easy to order, and delicious!! There's small tables you can stand and eat your pizza with some cheese, pepper, etc outside. Probably one of my favorite pizza places so far

Solid place for an NYC pizza slice, easy, quick, hot, and fast. We were able to grab some slices and garlic knots on our way back from a show. Service was friendly, the space is small, just big enough to step inside and order your pizza and pay at the register, grab some drinks, and go. There's a small counter at the window in case you need to pick up your order or want to eat and that's about it.

Wanted some quick slices of pizza & made a stop here. I chose cheese, meat lover, and bbq chicken for slices and garlic knots. The inside is small- there's slough space to look at the pizzas and order at the counter. If you want to eat they have a standing table outside or take it to go. They popped the slices and garlic knots in the oven so they were hot. The garlic knots are on the bigger size. My favorite slice was the meat lover because of all the flavor with each bite.

Love this spot. I come here every time I'm in NY. The pizza is delicious and I love the variety they have. It is so well made and like $4-5/slice but worth it. They have a stand up outdoor counter you can eat at or take it to go.

Is this place new? Has it changed recently? How have I never heard of this? No seriously, this may be the best pizza in the Columbus circle area. You may not see something uniquely exceptional about them at first glance, but their fundamentals are as solid as anywhere and once you actually go you'll appreciate how delicious it is. Their crust has a perfect tender yet structured texture. Their toppings are familiar yet paired intelligently with some combinations I don't often see elsewhere (peperoni-jalapeño and mushroom-spinach are two favorites). Their sauce is good (and crucially not too sweet), and the service is quick, easy, and pleasant. If you're looking for lunch or dinner on the go anywhere in the upper 50s on the west side give pop's a try, you won't be disappointed. Note, no seating, it's grab and go (or eat at their outdoor counter).

Stopped here for a slice after walking around Central Park and I really enjoyed their pizza! We ordered the jalapeño pepperoni and the meat lovers. The jalapeños they had were actually kind of sweet to me rather than spicy, but I still liked it! Their crust is perfectly thin and crispy and I love all the toppings they put! Service is quick, they reheat all your slices for you. They have a little stand outside for people to stand and eat outside of their shop.

Really decent pizza near Central Park. Love the meat lovers and the Pepperoni Jalapeno. It's small and there's no seating, but there's lots of places nearby to eat, or you can stand at the counters. I do wish it was open later as the 10pm close time makes it hard for those of us who want a late night pizza. The business is certainly there, but not for me to decide.

The perfect slice on the go! After a long walk through Central Park, we popped in here for a bite. There's a stand outside if you want to stand and eat with friends on the street. This spot delivered everything you want in a NY slice, minus the long lines at the tourist traps. We tried the garlic white and pepperoni with jalapeño--both were delicious. I'm already craving my next slice.

I felt so bad when I called to see if they sold by the slice. I tried to find info on it on Yelp but struggled seeing any new information about it. So alas, I went there for science and to try this place out. Walking distance from our hotel, it took just a few minutes to get there. They had so many options for by the slice and settled on 4 different ones. Honestly, enjoyed every single slice with the spinach one coming in as our favorites. They now have two locations so if you decide to order online, make sure you go to the right one. Come give some love to this place and get some great New York style pizza.

This is a very classic NYC grab and go, stand by the ledge while you eat a massive pizza spot! We got 2 pizzas and they were both very different. The vodka pizza is thicker and crunchier while the pepperoni was thinner with the flavor growing in each bite. Each slice was about $6 (not sure what pizza economics are) but the portions for each slice were massive!

Pop's Pizza the name drew me in!!! With some much pizza shops lining up and down. Pop's Pizza is a small place right around the corner from many Broadway theatres. The pizza was pretty good. I usually like a certain amount of grease and oil on a thin crust pizza but this had more oil than normal. It was dripping as I picked up the slice and the paper plate was covered with oil by the time I was done. I wished I had taken a picture of the plate. A little too much oil but the slice was still pretty tasty.

I was only motivated to go to the Central Park for snow bc I can grab pizza from this place. 5/5 for the price and delicious food. One slice filled me up! It was quick service. Limited standing space but people eat quick! Again, great pizza!

Very typical New York City pizza joint in terms of decor. Big slices, same price as everywhere else in the area. I tried the margherita and it tasted pretty good. A little too salty for my taste.

I'm officially ruined. New York pizza is better. And this is the best "by the slice" place I've been to. Dough is wonderfully crispy, sauce is sweet. Simple, fast, polite walk up and walkout service. No frills. Order, pay, get on your way.

Decent New York style pizza: 1. More Mexican than Italian. 2. Thin crispy crust, cheesy, greasy, perfect size. 3. Price: $5.5 per slice.

A solid NYC slice shop serving up super thin slices through a window. Service is efficient and to the point but friendly. The crust is good and super thin with just the right amount of crisp. My only issue is that the sauce is a tad too sweet. But for a quick cheap lunch on the fly, it fits the bill.

If you are looking for service this is not the place. If you are looking for good pizza, you found Pops. There is no restroom at Pops and you can stand at the sidewalk to eat or swallow your pizza like a seal. There is an up charge of you pay by credit card. There is nothing that mentions the up charge we noticed on the receipt. The staff talent is to prepare pizza not chat with the customer. O tried it but I don't think I'll be back. So many other great places out there is New York.

Great little pizza spot serving classic New York style pizza with crispy crust. They have a small covered stand on the street for eating on the run and enjoying the hustle and bustle of NYC. We even saw a bus driver pull over and grab a slice! Only in New York.

This was my first try of an authentic NY pizza. I was here in NY for a work trip. Not a lot of time to galavant around the city to try the foodie places that I found highly recommended. But I was walking around to places that were a priority, and this little place was on my route. Every bit of foodie research I did said you must try a slice of NY pizza. This place is literally a hole in the wall. Dining area is outside, on the street and a wood shack. Gotta give it to them for at least providing an eating space for a city that doesn't have space so they have to build up! Anywho, I tried the meat pizza and garlic knots with marinara. It was a thin crust pizza. Omg, so yummy. Not so meaty, but it has the fair amount of meat. The garlic knots were a bit on the dry side, but dipped in the sauce it was a party in your mouth. Not really, but a great combination. The service was awesome. The guys there were cool and service was fast. Even when I was trying to look for the trash outside, the guy inside directed me to come back into the store to throw away my trash. Thank you!

During our short visit to the East Coast, the one thing I had to have was my style pizza and this one caught my eye being so close to where we were in central park. It was a blistering hot day but that didn't deter me from my craving for a hot slice. The shop is tiny allowing maybe 2-3 customers to the register to order. They ran out of pepperoni so I opted for the Marguerite. Slices were just $5 + tax and huge! It was ready in 3 min and you can take it to a standing only covered area by the side of the road where there are napkins, garlic powder and oregano. The pizza was nice and hot with the perfect amount of sauce and a great crunch to the crust. Nothing compares to NY Pizza!

Good New York slice - jalepeno pepperoni. Quick and hot and delicious. No inside space, small counter to eat at outside.

The pizza was the best I've ever eaten! I chose the pepperoni & jalapeño pizza. The slice was large and served hot!

Loved the thin crust but needed more basil to balance the cheese. Service was fast and pleasant. Needs more places to stand and eat your slice and have a place for your drink.

First review of 2024! We stopped by this little hole in the wall for a quick slice on our way to work and were not disappointed. The slices are large, crispy (the way we like them) and they weren't cheap on the extra cheese. Well spent $11 on two slices; pepperoni and extra cheese. I would definitely come back here next time I want something quick on 57th st.

Great NY style pizza with okay pricing and maybe a little too greasy but that's good. It is an order and stand outside place which is absolutely fine as this is our go to pizza place when near south central park.

Delicious, crust was crispy and burrata tasted so fresh. There was a bit of a wait, only because we ordered 3 full pizzas, not just slices so it was super fresh!
