When near the BSU campus and craving a road pie - I roll over to McGalliard or Bethel - both are predictable Pizza Kings.
Just get a large Royal Feast, garlic cheese bread and leave perfectly satisfied, and you may even have leftovers - unless you just can't get enough. It's a standard, perfectly predictable.
Very difficult to call their iteration a "Salad Bar" though.
Service/Server can be spotty - and busy weekends near campus can be a little overwhelming.
Three words that you should say when you are in Pizza King is "Royal Feast, Please" Â it is the bomb.... Be aware that some PK's allow smoking in the restaurant, so that is my main reason for them only getting 4/5 stars. Â This in 2012 the rest of the world has banned smoking inside, when are you guys going to,
Review Source:All my life, this has been the "go-to" pizza of choice for me and my family. Â Sure, we jump around a bit, but always come right back when you want that food that takes you back and always satisfies. Yes, it's a bit more expensive than others. Â My favorites: classic pepperoni, and the classic Royal Feast. Â Tiny squares, big taste. Â Man, that got me hungry writing this. :)
Review Source:I'm as "Muncie" as you can get, which means Pizza King is my favorite pizza in the whole world. I try pizzerias everywhere I go and I've never found anywhere I like as much as Pizza King.
The McGalliard location has good service and the food is awesome. You'll probably feel like you stepped into a 1970s pizzeria with plants by the windows and "now that's what I call music" albums from the 1990s. They have Metallica's "Black Album" and "Appetite for Destruction" on the juke too, so it's not all bad. Aside from being conveniently located along with all the other restaurants on McGalliard, this Pizza King has a couple other nice features that you may appreciate. There is a Salad Bar, it isn't fancy, but it is a Salad Bar. Secondly, they have both Pepsi and Coke. Which means this is the only location in town that Mt. Dew enthusiasts can enjoy their favorite soft drink with their meal. Â They also have cheap beer/wine if you are interested in that kind of thing.
If you get breadsticks, order them half baked. The pizza is the reason everyone is fanatical about this place. I love the pepperoni and sausage, if you are unfamiliar you need to try the royal feast too.
Basically this place is a Muncie staple. Get breadsticks, plenty of pizza, and some drinks and you'll have a good time. Oh yeah, you get to place your order on a telephone from your table too. Neat, right?
Oh Pizza King, I weep for you! I'm just a girl from Hawaii visiting family and I hated your pizza at first... it was reminiscent of Totinos frozen party pizza... but then, you touched my lips for the 2nd time, 3rd time, 4th time, and now I can't live without you!!! Â I don't know if its your Royal Feast, your small squares, your edge-to-edge toppings, or if you just put something in there that made me addicted, but I want you, and I want you BAD!
The next time I'm in Muncie, I will ring the King, and we will meet again. Â Smooches!
i had the pepperoni pizza. as stated in other reviews it is a diced/crumbled pepperoni which is okay. Â however, the crust was thin and obviously frozen. Â the sauce was plain and the cheese was flavorless. Â overall it was as good as those 99cent frozen pizzas from the supermarket. Â i will not return here.
Review Source:New to Muncie and decided to try out this local pizza joint. When you walk in it isn't clear that you need to seat yourself, but you do. When you get to a table or booth there are menus waiting. There are sandwiches, pastas, salads & of course, pizza on the menu. The pizza is normally a thin crust but you can order pan for a higher price. I have tried the thin crust pepperoni and it is very good. Nice and crispy, thoroughly melted cheese and plenty of pepperoni. The only thing that is kinda different about the pepperoni is that it is diced like you would find on a microwave pizza. I am used to the full circular pepperonis, but diced tastes fine as well.
Ordering is neat, there is an old fashioned black phone at every table; you pick up the receiver, order your food and drinks and tell them your table number. About 3 minutes later a waitress comes by with your drinks and silverware. 15 minutes after that your pizza arrives.
The best thing I have had so far are the bread stix! Order them and you will not be disappointed! Also, PK has Coke products only- no Dr. Pepper or Pibb... :(
All toppings, thin crust. Finely diced veggies and crispy mouthfeel. Delicious buttery breadsticks (try half-baked or keep them lightly crunchy) with fake stadium-quality orange cheese, ranch, and/or dill butter. Dine-in, take out, delivery, either way, you always "ring the king." (Restaurants come equipped with phones that direct you to the servers and you order without face-to-face human interaction.) I can't wait to visit home just to get my mouth around some of this midwest white trash pizza. It really cannot be found anywhere else.
