The Great American Pizza Co

I just moved to Brunswick and we have been trying every pizza place to see which we like best and I don’t think I’ll ever order pizza from anywhere else! It was amazing. The sauce was like no other Ive had before and just full of flavor. The buffalo chicken pizza was out of this world. They are a bit pricey but I’m assuming that’s because they use quality products to make this amazing pizza and people like me pay for quality. I’ll definitely be ordering every time I need/​want pizza!

My wife and I really enjoy the Chicago style pizza with pepperoni. Its difficult to find good Chicago style pizza. Best pizza joint in Brunswick.

My husband and I are fairly new to Brunswick, so we’re still trying to sample all of the numerous pizza joints around. I saw that GAPCO was pretty highly rated, and they have a buy one get one half off deal.
I understand that they have quite a few specialty items, but I was surprised when they quoted me 45 minutes for a PICK-​UP order at about 7:30 on a Friday. Maybe I had unrealistic expectations, but I’ve never waited more than 20 at other pizza places. I can’t remember the names of the pizzas we got, but it was a BBQ chicken and a hawaiian. They both tasted pretty good, but the toppings were literally just placed on top of the pizza, so they were falling off left and right every time I tried to take a bite. I would be willing to give it another shot to see if it was a fluke, but it won’t be anytime soon since we’ve had better experiences at places a little closer to SE Brunswick.

It’s not delivery, it’s DiGiorno… This must be the «delivery» pizza that this famous tag line is referencing. I never understood that commercial, because «delivery» pizza ALWAYS tastes better, but Great Amercian Pizza Co. does pretty much tastes like DiGiorno.
I didn’t get anything over the top, just a basic pepperoni pizza and a basic sausage pizza. Neither were very good. Crust is doughy and a little chewy, but not in a good way; in the DiGiorno kind of way. Same with the sauce. Bland DiGiorno sauce.
I don’t have an axe to grind. The service was friendly, and I was so hoping this pizza would be on par with the many other surrounding pizza joints that offer an excellent variety of good pizzas, but it wasn’t. A lot of reviewers like it, so more power to ‘em, but as for me, GAPO is a «never again.»

I ordered this for the first time and I was very impressed. the pizza tasted amazing, especially the Philly pizza… also ordered a small cheesy bread and it was just the right amount for 3of us and tasted just as great! Plus there was a buy one get one half off

Three out of four times that I have had food delivered from here the order was wrong the food is not good enough to go through all that trouble. Never again. Too many good pizza places in brunswick

We’ve been ordering from here more and more lately. The pizza is exactly the style we like. Cheesy, with a good crust and the dough not too thick. It’s buy one get one ½ off. So, it’s not a great deal for just one pizza but, two or more is SO worth it. This is the kind of pizza that tastes almost as good warmed up in the oven as it does fresh.

I loved this place but one day I got «cinnamon» bites but ended up POISONED with salt. When I called back, I was laughed at. I wrote the owner and she called me a lier. These are HORRIBLE people!

Absolutely amazing pizza! Me and my family have ordered several times and have been completely satisfied every time! From the Chicago deep dish, to cheese sticks, and calzones everything was mouth watering! The sauce was outstanding which I believe is the most important part of a great pizza! We never had to wait a ridiculous amount of time and you can taste the quality of the ingredients! The staff was kind and the location is easy to find. I recommend this place to everyone especially those pizza fanatics such as myself! I remember the first time we ordered and I was completely in shock of how good it was! I can’t wait to order it again! Keep up the great work!

OH WOW! For those of you who don’t know me, I am a pizza fanatic. Pizza all day every day forever. I love plain pizzas, specialty pizzas, small pizzas, sheet pizzas, deep dish pizzas, calzones, (which isn’t really pizza but is pizza adjacent) and all other pizzas in between. You know who has all of the above? The Great American Pizza Co., that’s who.
I’ve never been overly picky about my pizza, but I can definitely appreciate an amazing one when I find it. This place has some of the best in the business. I don’t say that lightly people. My boyfriend and I just happened to stumble across the name somewhere, and with him also being an avid pizza consumer, we had to try it out THAT DAY. I mean, it has «great» and «American» in the title, so it had to be amazing. They have pizzas inspired by different cities as specialties. I found that to be pretty cool and unique.
We may have over done it a bit with the ordering, but with a BOGO ½ off sale, who can resist?! So we ordered the Bismarck, which has spaghetti and meatballs on it. Yes, you heard me correctly… ON the pizza. For our half off, we ordered the Key west with spinach, tomato and garlic. Then we, of course, had to order a deep dish pizza. Now, seeing as though we have indulged in real Chicago deep dishes before, we were skeptical. However, I can tell you that The GAPC rivals that of any Chicago one we’ve tasted. I realize that what I just said is crossing in to dangerous territory, so I’ll elaborate. Of course Chicago’s pizza is superior. I’m just saying that in Ohio, you can get supremely awesome deep dish without driving 5hours right here in little Brunswick. Man, is it good!
I have always prided myself on being able to consume mass quantities of pizza in one sitting, but after one deep dish slice and one Bismarck, I was pretty full. Those are some heavy, albeit delicious, pizzas. I was slightly disappointed in the Key West until the next day, when I ate it cold. That makes a damn good cold pizza. There are so many to choose from and you bet your ass we’ll be trying them all!

This place is great! Their dough and sauce are house made you can totally tell. I’m a fan of the sweet sauce. I also love the variety of specialty pizzas they have. The stuffed crust is awesome, the veggie pizza is great and I love the thin crust too. Their wings, both bone in, and boneless are also delicious.
This is our go to place for pizza in Brunswick. The buy one get one half off is a great deal.
Just a tip though if you get the thin crust I suggest picking it up yourself because I’ve gotten pizzas that weren’t crispy by the time they delivered it.
Otherwise, I love this place and wish it a long future in Brunswick.

Exterior isn’t super inviting, its just a small old plaza storefront, however interior was CLEAN, beautifully decorated, and trustworthy. The pizza was excellent, thick cheese. (Usually you have to pay more money for this much cheese). And the staff was very friendly. Quality Pizza, Quality Service, Quality Décor.

So I use Unilocal all the time, as I have for a couple years. I read review and comments on restaurants, venues, ect., but this is the first time I’ve actually bothered to sit and write a review myself. Amazing! The cheeses were very fresh quality cheese. And if you love cheese, you’ll appreciate it greatly! We got the Green Bay pizza and added pepperoni to it, outstanding! And the Orlando; Very good as well.

Wow. Great food! We had a plain with extra cheese. It was super cheesy and crust was good. Kids liked it. Then… we also had a Reuben stromboli (seasonal) that was super awesome. On time with our order. Price is fair.

I grew up on the South Side of Chicago and lived there until I was 23 when I followed my wife back to her hometown of Cleveland. I adjusted to the Browns and Indians from the Bears and Sox and I was able to find reliable (and cheaper) substitutes for just about every Chi-​Town thing in the CLE except two things — #1) no NHL franchise (please get rid of the annoying Cavs and get hockey, would so much more fit the blue-​collar demeanor of CLE) and #2) PIZZA — specifically deep dish. Had Geracis — okay. Mama Santas — what’s the big deal? Deweys — hipster. Someone finally tipped me off to this ma and pa joint in Brunswick of all places. Having some time on a summer afternoon I drove from the east side out here to give the Chicago deep dish a go (the trophies they have won for sauce gave the drive an impetus). When I got the pizza from «Ma» I told her my pedigree — having been raised on Giordanos, Gino’s East, Lou Malnati’s (if you know Chicago, you know what I mean). She said they regularly go to Chicago and they know what Chicago pizza is supposed to be. So I got my medium Chicago-​style deep dish sausage and pepp and headed out with it (not a sit down joint which actually may be a good indicator). I sat down with it and opened the box. It looked right and smelled right. It clearly needed to be devoured with a knife and fork (good sign). So I picked one up and finally realized that the Holy Grail had been found. The cheese was right (inch thick). The sauce was good (not too sweet, not too spicy and on top of the pie). The pepp was good — not greasy. My only criticisms — think the sausage could use more fennel (but I grew up with that I know many don’t appreciate it as much) and the crust on the bottom of the pie could be a bit thicker (the edge was perfect). Minor criticisms after trying multiple pizzas around town. Only knock — I’m an East Sider — but I will take an occasional 40 minute drive to Brunswick over the 5 ½ hour drive to Chi-​Town or the packed in dry ice shipment from Lou Malnati’s (which aint the same anyway). Thanks Great American Pizza Co. Someone in the CLE finally figured out how to cook a Chicago style pizza. Now can we work on the NHL so I can see my beloved (and champion — sorry CLE) Blackhawks? GO BEARS!

Pizza was great, sauce was well seasoned and just the right amount, tons of cheese and fresh toppings. Can’t beat the price. I’ve spent the same amount with coupons at chain pizza stores and got pizzas with very little sauce and sparse cheese. I will never go back to those chains, I have a new pizzeria that I love. Plus they have free delivery. Can’t wait to try subs and other items!

First off, its thin crust. The sauce is pretty good. They could use a little more sauce. They have an unlimited medium and x-​large deal. The pepperoni, sausage, onion, and green pepper is very good. For brunswick its groumet, better than most. I have picked up the pizza every time, so I have no idea on the delivery service.

Pizza was ok, sandwich was great, people were friendly, and I’ll probably try them again.
