★★★★★ 5.0 Sam Bookmyer · Feb 2026

Never been but I live in MI and have ordered 3 pack pizza three times in the last 90 days! Why? Because it’s delicious! Plenty of toppings, excellent crust and a good amount of the best red sauce ever used with a pizza. I cannot say enough good things about this pizzeria! If you live nearby or even if you don’t, like me…..take advantage of this superior pizza!

Had been a few years since I had been here. So happy to have Panhandlers pizza again! Love the crust! Great food! Deep dish sausage and 3 meat thin crust!

Didn't have a taste for pizza but it looked good. There were some pizzas in the warmers that they sold by the slice and offered a two slice special. My friend ordered a beef sandwich, I ordered the southwest chicken salad, and we picked out a few appetizers. Our bill was $43 which was about average I would say for everything we bought. Everything was cooked to perfection. The staff and owner seemed nice. Although we took our food to go, the dining room seemed clean. Would return again.

The receipt and the menu board was different. I ordered a Philly beef. The website says saute onions, green peppers, the board on the wall says grill onions and peppers, verbally it was sweet peppers. The onions were not cooked either way, they were burnt black on the ends. The peppers were sliced raw green peppers. I was expecting the peppers to be cooked. I was billed a beef sandwich with mozzarella cheese and sweet pep. And grilled onions, $11.50. The boards said $11.00 for a Philly beef. The amount of beef was under whelming for a $11.00 sandwich. There is more meat by volume on the $1.50 hot dog at Coatco. The onion tanglers are not tangled, just rings. But, look at the picture; there were at least 90% burnt. There were parts that were black. I've had way better food on prior visits
