The East Village outpost of Artichoke Basille’s keeps the neighborhood fed until the early morning with rich, thick-topped slices. The namesake artichoke slice is unapologetically creamy and filling, while the vodka and Sicilian options hold up well for late-night crowds. Open until 5am daily, it’s one of the ZIP’s most dependable after-hours pies.
