Pizza is one of the most iconic, common dishes worldwide. In the United States, New York is particularly known for its pizza. Farmingdale has several pizza options, ranging from classic pizzerias to upscale restaurant settings. With so many options, Farmingdale has become a full-scale battleground for its own Pizza Wars.
 
Each section of Farmingdale (Farmingdale Village, South Farmingdale and East Farmingdale) is home to multiple pizzerias - the majority of the town’s population likely lives within walking distance of the nearest slice. Some people are loyal to one pizzeria, others like to spread the love, and some have their go-to place for a specific slice or entree. Diehards are willing to travel to the other side of town for their favorite pie.
