Blaze Pizza is absolutely horrible. The pizza crust is very thin, but mostly it lacks taste. It reminded me of a tv dinner pizza; actually, it was like eating a cardboard pizza.

Hungry Howie's is kind of similar to Blaze. Go there instead. Now, if you want good pizza go to RX Pizza downtown. It truly is the BEST pizza in town.

possibly the first time I've heard someone recommend Hungry Howie's, it is what I would call an "oddity"

Blue Baker is pretty darn good as well. But RX is the best IMO. Cafe Eccel is pretty great too.

Hey, I'm no fan of Hungry Howie's. But, it is far superior to Blaze Pizza and cheap too. Blaze Pizza was very disappointing yet typical.

Me and my lady went one night and stood in line for over an hour for what is possibly the worst pizza I've ever had. I hadn't been that disappointed since Fuego's.

Edit: I stand corrected, I hadn't been that disappointed since Freebirds. Without question the most overrated place in town.

I've actually enjoyed Blaze the times I went. Obviously, Rx is better, but it is a totally different experience and I don't think the two should be compared.

Ate at Blaze for the first time yesterday and we liked it. Crispy, thin crust, price is great for as many toppings as we like to add ($8.25). They have many beer choices and great juices, but no wine or spirits.

Blaze is excellent - love the thin crust. I used to recommend Rx Pizza highly, but we had a bad experience there a few weeks ago. Will give it another try, though.

Jeez...Why would you wait in line for OVER AN HOUR for what's essentially the Chipotle of pizza?

If you guys want some GREAT pizza, and you're going to the Belk Bowl, visit Rosario's Pizza in Concord. It's in the Food Lion shopping center at 5303 Poplar Tent Road, Concord, NC.

My wife and I eat there every time we go visit her family. That place is just AMAZING. Best pizza I have had in my entire life.

Well, I wanted to go to Shiriz Shish Kabob instead, but she said No. That was why.

Yes. Blaze is far superior though, in my opinion.

Blaze >> Urban Bricks

Blaze also has thick crust, for those who do not like thin, and I personally think it is some of the best thick crust pizza in town.

Totally agree. Blaze is a superior product. Their sauce tastes better and I apprciate a crispy, thin crust. Their dining area is also more likely to be clean and less noisy than UB.

Idk how UB gets their thin crust to be as floppy and soft as it is. They say it gets more crunchy as you add more toppings. Not the case with Blaze. Their simple pie gets as crispy as any other pizza.

Reading is hard. Obviously he wouldn't have stood in line for OVER AN HOUR if he knew he was going to be disappointed.

We in Aggieland are really lucky with this actually. When I visit the metropolis cities I'm always annoyed how long the wait is for good places.

Slamming Blaze, Freebirds, AND Fuego in one post seems like a troll, but I know what you mean!

Ironically I ate at Blaze Pizza an hour ago and was coming to post how good it was. Loved the crust, red sauce and the roasted garlic was amazing. Service was great.

What is the parking at Century Square like now? I probably missed the update. Do you still have to pay after your first 10 minutes?

This is a very common occurrence if you ever leave BCS. I've waited 3 hours for a restaurant before.

No, and with the students gone you may actually find a parking spot.

Hey guys,

I am the Marketing Manager for Hungry Howie's BCS.

If you're not a fan of the pizza in general - we all have different tastes, so no hard feelings.

But if you have a negative view of us because of a negative experience at one of our stores, etc, please shoot me an email so we can see about getting you a little pizza on us and hopefuuly change your mind.

Justin @ justinbaileydesign dot com

Merry Christmas!

Free pizza you say. Did I mention how much I adore your food? In all seriousness, what I was most surprised about HH when I first went was the quality and price of the food.

It's definitely in my top 5 of late night food options in BCS.

There is a new strip center between the old Taste of China building and the AutoZone that I've seen nothing about.

Not sure, but it was in the New Development list in January 2017 with no details other than "A Proposed New Lease Space for College Station Shopping Center. It looks like a wide but shallow building. I'd guess a small liquor store but that's just a guess.
