Beggars Pizza (Stony Island)

South Side institution since 1976 when Angelo Garetto opened the first Beggars in Blue Island. Still family-owned by the Garettos, this Stony Island location has a full dining room, bar with happy hour specials, and seasonal outdoor patio. Known for thick, cheesy pizza — both thin crust and deep dish — plus pasta, wings, and their famous motto: 'We Lay It On Thick.' The kind of place where every South Sider has a go-to order.
