Conway, being a [college] town, has many establishments that offer all sorts of pizzas. Pizza is one of the few things available for delivery in Conway. Pizza is an iconically delivered item, and tipping the person delivering the pizza is common. The Tip the Pizza Guy Website has guides on how to tip, and also how to place an order to make sure you get what you want, how to make sure the delivery person can find the house and more.

Most of the pizza establishment pages have an accompanying photo of a typical large pepperoni pizza.

Table of Price and Size

Listed here are the prices for a pizza with no extra toppings that is not on sale, alongside its diameter in inches.

Deals

The table is greatly confounded, of course, by the uneven price of toppings and the massive amounts of special deals available. Listed here are known deals that don't require a coupon, although they may require you to be knowledgeable of the deal before going into the store, as pizza places know that if you walked in sans coupon and knowledge of a discount you're probably willing to pay more. If you don't mind being sleazy to save a buck, sometimes you can get a reduced price by simply flirting with the clerk and asking what deals they have that aren't listed on the menu.

• If you get takeout from Pizza Guys you get a free 2 liter soda. They also have a coupon special for under $12 that includes a large pizza w/ one topping (FSI=109), cheesy garlic bread (FSI=56.7), and a free drink. Counting the garlic bread, they have the best FSI to price ratio in Conway.

Functional Square Inch

A graph of price per square inch would seem appropriate from the table above, however not all pizzas are made the same. Crust radius, in particular, tends to confound the real size of a pizza, so below is a table showing the number of Functional Square Inches (FSI) of a Pizza. The FSI reflects the area containing toppings, and can therefore reveal how much certain places rip people off by having a ridiculous amount of crust. FSI = 3.14159 * (radius - crust length)*(radius - crust length)

Please consult Pizza: FSI Calculations for how to interpret and update this chart.

Make Your Own

Making pizza can be a cinch or it can be a fun, all-day cooking project depending how much time you want to put on it.

Dough

You can use a pizza stone to cook pizza, but it isn't required. For a cheaper alternative to a pizza stone, get a large, unglazed flooring tile (ceramic is better than composite, since composite will expand and contract differently and break quicker). They're available at Lowe's for around $5. You can also just pre-cook the dough right on the oven rack—about 8-10 minutes at 375-400 degrees will give you a nice crust, shorter if you roll it out really thin. Pull it out, add the sauce, cheese, and toppings, and toss it back in until they're done.

• Pre-made, pre-cooked doughs are available at most supermarkets
• Many pizzerias sell dough balls in various sizes (e.g. Lamppost "large" dough ball is $3, and easily rolls out into a 16"-18" pie)
• You can make your own—just do a web search for pizza dough recipes

Sauce

Most pizzerias offer red and white sauces; many offer a wide variety of others.

• For a classic red sauce, use a 6-oz can of tomato paste, 3/4 cup water, a drizzle of honey, a little parmesan cheese, some minced garlic (optional), and a few seasonings of your choice (e.g. a dash each of oregano, basil, marjoram, and cayenne pepper).
• You can even use spaghetti sauce from a jar, if you want something quick and easy.
• Like white sauces at pizza joints? Try a jar of garlic alfredo sauce.
• Pesto (home-made or store bought) makes a great pizza sauce.
• Blue cheese salad dressing is also great.
• Your favorite BBQ sauce will be delicious on pizza.

Cheese

• Shredded mozzarella is quick, easy, and fairly traditional. Around 8 oz. is good for one large-ish pizza. You can get it in 8- or 16-oz. bags at any grocery store.
• Try mixing it up. Use a few different cheeses. Sprinkle some parmesan on. If you're using bold toppings, try a smoked cheese (gouda or mozzarella, for example).

Toppings

There aren't that many things that aren't good on pizza. You can get really creative and get some fantastic results. Be sure to pre-cook any uncooked meats.

• Pepperoni, sliced ham and canned pineapple, and so on are quick and easy. Chicken, shrimp, bacon, salami, black olives, bell pepper, mushroom, onion, zucchini, bacon, basil, spinach, tomato, artichoke hearts (try marinated!) ... the list goes on and on.
• Chopped fresh veggies of all sorts make for an amazing pizza. Try sprinkling some Italian seasoning over the top (you can get a real kick of flavor using one of those Italian dressing spice blends—without the oil and vinegar, of course).
• Like hot wings? Try cooking up a couple of chicken breasts and tossing them with your favorite hot sauce (Frank's Red Hot is a pretty common Buffalo sauce). Great with a blue cheese dressing as the sauce.
• Shrimp, bacon, and tomatoes make a pretty amazing combination, especially with pesto or a garlic alfredo sauce.
• Try experimenting with some of the classics. Like Hawaiian? Chop up some fresh pineapple and an onion and marinate it for a few hours in good maple syrup and a bit of cayenne pepper. Yum.
