A long-running East Village slice counter known for reliably crisp, thin New York–style pies at truly late hours. The cheese and pepperoni staples hit the sweet spot of salty, stretchy, and lightly charred, and the shop keeps quality steady even deep into the night. Since 1997, it’s been a default post-bar stop for the neighborhood.
Must-Try Dishes:
Classic Cheese Slice, Pepperoni Slice, White Pie Slice
What makes it special: High-volume, decades-old slice shop that stays sharp after midnight.
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.
Must-Try Dishes:
Artichoke Slice, Vodka Sicilian Slice, Crab Slice (seasonal)
What makes it special: Ultra-late hours with a uniquely creamy signature slice.
Worthy Picks
7.8
A newer halal-friendly pizza counter that serves classic NYC slices and a few creative specials until 2–3am most nights. The crust runs thinner and crisp, with generous cheese and spice-forward toppings that play well after a night out. It’s a useful, non-obvious option for late-night eaters looking for halal pies in the area.
Must-Try Dishes:
Halal Pepperoni Slice, Buffalo Chicken Slice, White Slice with Spinach
What makes it special: Halal slice shop open late with solid NYC-style pies.
7.6
A St. Marks nightlife staple for no-fuss slices and stuffed stromboli, geared for takeout and quick eats. The menu is broad—classic pies, rolls, and hearty baked pockets—making it a handy late option for groups roaming the block. Not a destination pie, but a dependable neighborhood stop when you need something hot and fast.
Must-Try Dishes:
Cheese Slice, Pepperoni Roll, Classic Stromboli
What makes it special: St. Marks counter spot with both slices and stuffed stromboli.
