How Much Pizza Do I Need To Order? - Salerno's Pizza

It’s important to note that even if you end up with extra pizza, it’s always better to have leftovers than to leave anyone hungry. Not to mention leftover pizza is delicious and easy to reheat!

Ordering Pizza for a Child’s Party

There’s nothing better than a pizza party for kids, but how much should you order for your little one’s birthday party? Here’s a simple breakdown:

• For kids ages five and below =  one slice per child

Tips for Ordering Pizza for Parties

Now that you have a better idea of how many pizzas you need, check out the following tips before ordering pizza for a group:

1. Consider the type of gathering: If your guests are expecting a full meal, then make sure you’re generous with your pizza party slices. But if they’re only expecting refreshments at your Stickney gathering, then you may be able to get away with placing a smaller order.
2. Think about the size: You don’t want your guests to still be hungry afterward they leave, so consider the size of the pizza you order. You can always mix up sizes based on toppings to cater to all hunger levels/preferences.
3. Plan out toppings: We recommend having a mix of various toppings to accommodate all taste buds – but it never hurts to order plain cheese to play it safe. 
4. Be considerate of dietary restrictions: Consider ordering a gluten-free, dairy-free, or vegan option for your Oak Park guests with allergies or dietary restrictions.
