A Slice of Community: Celebrate National Pizza Day
Every February 9th, pizza lovers across the United States unite in a delicious celebration known simply as National Pizza Day. While the origins of pizza trace back to Naples in the early 1500s, its evolution in America has birthed a diverse range of flavors and styles, enriching our culinary landscape. In 2026, this indulgent holiday encourages locals to indulge in their favorite slices, whether perfectly traditional or wildly innovative.
Food Deals That Are Too Good to Miss
National Pizza Day isn't just about enjoying a meal—it's a golden opportunity for amazing pizza deals! Major chains and local pizzerias alike roll out special offers, allowing you and your family to enjoy a feast without breaking the bank. For example, Circle K carries a Meal Deal for only $6, including two slices of pizza and your choice of drink. At Domino’s, you can snag a pie with one topping for just $7.99, which could quickly satisfy any pizza craving.
Hungry Howie's is also putting up enticing deals like a large Detroit-style pizza for $12.99, with specific codes to maximize savings. Meanwhile, Little Caesar's offers a mouthwatering option with their combination of two deep-dish slices and Italian cheese bread for just $4.99. Every bite is as good as gold, but these deals won't last long, so grab your phone and plan your pizza night!
Supporting Local Pizzerias
While national chains offer delectable incentives, let’s not forget about our hometown heroes—the local pizzerias that add flavor to our communities. Establishments like Lilly’s Pizza in Raleigh and Pizzeria Toro in Durham serve unique takes that often outshine mainstream options. They may not have official National Pizza Day deals, yet supporting these local gems is crucial to keeping our neighborhood economies vibrant. Plus, there’s nothing quite like the personal touch of a locally crafted pizza!
The Hidden Gems of the Triangle Area
The Triangle is a hotspot for diverse culinary experiences, and its pizza scene is no exception. If you find yourself in the area, take a moment to explore some lesser-known pizza parlors such as Pizzeria Mercato in Carrboro or Pie Pushers in Durham. Their handmade pizzas often feature locally sourced ingredients and innovative recipes. And who knows? You might discover your new favorite pie!
