Looking online for the best birthday places near me? Consider one of our nearby fantastic parks in Charlotte or Hickory. Or, bring the kids to Tony’s Pizza for an easy and temperature-controlled gathering. Moreover, with 6 convenient locations spread throughout the area, we’re practically right down the street and convenient to neighborhoods and guests.

Below, we’ve put together some fun ideas for the perfect kid’s birthday party.

Ideas for Birthday Parties

Likely, your search for birthday places near me brought up an overwhelming amount of results. Narrowing the best birthday party idea down is challenging. From places like Dave and Busters to Chuck E Cheese to bouncy places and skating rinks, it’s hard to choose. Plus, these birthday venues get expensive and often require you to purchase limited food options from them. Similarly, they often have a minimum, and sometimes maximum, amount of party guests to book.

Instead, consider other options that include ordering food from your favorite restaurant (we’re hoping it’s Tony’s!) and come up with some fun birthday activities.

Ideas include:

  • Rent a character of your child’s favorite personality – princess, superhero, animal, or cartoon character
  • Scavenger Hunts (this is also fun to do at a mall if you’re worried about the weather)
  • Face painting or balloon twisting
  • Traditional games such as: Simon Says, Red Light/Green Light, Tag, Musical Chairs, Hot Potato and Duck, Duck, Goose
  • Paint party

Host Your Birthday Bash at A Local Park

If you’re not up for filling your home with exuberant birthday guests, host your party at a local park in the Charlotte or Hickory area. Often, this is a completely free option. Conversely, if you rather reserve a space, many local parks offer pavilions and picnic areas to rent for relatively reasonable prices. Either way, parks offer lots of room to run and entertain party guests.

Below, we’ve listed a few fun party venues for kids and adults.

Charlotte Area

Another option is a birthday party at the lake. Ramsey Creek Park has a swimming beach, a playground, picnic shelters, nature trails, fishing pier and a volleyball court.

Alternatively, opt for indoors in your search for birthday places near me. Keeping a party indoors, helps alleviate worries about weather ruining the festivities. A restaurant is a simple solution to gather kids and enjoy some tasty food. Similarly, you needn’t worry about cleaning up your house before or afterwards. Fortunately, Charlotte has some cool places to eat, including Tony’s.

Typically, eating out gets a little pricey. However, as a family-owned restaurant, we value family time and eating together. Currently, all of our kids’ meals are priced at $5 and under.

What Makes Tony’s the Best For Finding Pizza Slices Near Me

Obviously, us claiming that we have some of the best pizza in Charlotte begs another question – what makes Tony’s Pizza so great? Fortunately, we have some answers to that question.

First, we serve NY-style pizza. If you’ve never tried it, now is the time. If you have tried it, you’ll understand why it’s so fabulous. With a crisp yet magically chewy crust and huge slices, it’s one of America’s favorite types of pizza. Back in the day, you had to drive all the way to New York to get it. Fortuitously, our owners brought their recipe and expertise down to North Carolina from Brooklyn back in the 80s.

Moreover, we make our pizza and other local food as fresh as possible. Likewise, we create our pizza from scratch and we hand toss it which is a must for NY-style pizza slices. Unfortunately, there are many chain restaurants that advertise NY-style crust. However, they don’t all make them from scratch like we do. Thus, you can taste and feel the difference.

Finally, we have tons of toppings for the best pizza slices near me. Check out some of our options below:

  • Pepperoni
  • Sausage
  • Mushrooms
  • Black Olives
  • Pineapple
  • Bell Peppers
  • Anchovies
  • Artichoke Hearts
  • Onions
  • Banana Peppers
  • Bacon
  • Basil
  • Beef
  • Beef Roni
  • Broccoli
  • Canadian Bacon
  • Chorizo
  • Crispy Chicken
  • Feta
  • Tomatoes
  • Grilled Chicken
  • Green Olives
  • Ham
  • Jalapenos
  • Kalamata Olives
  • Meatballs
  • Roasted Red Peppers
  • Salami
  • Steak
  • Sliced Sausage
  • Spinach
  • Sun Dried Tomatoes

Should You Order Pizza By the Slice or A Whole Pizza?

Sometimes, we think you should just go for it and get the whole pizza. After all, leftovers make life a little easier. If you’re trying to decide which is better – a slice or a whole pie – here are some benefits to ordering just a slice.

  • If you’re on lunch break or in a rush, a single slice is the perfect amount of food. You needn’t worry about storing leftovers and it’s easy to fold and eat on the go just like a New Yorker does.
  • If you’re eating with a group and folks can’t decide on the same topping, getting pizza by the slice is an easy solution. Although, we can do a pizza with half-and-half toppings if you can at least agree on a couple.
  • We try to keep our whole pizzas as affordable as possible. But, if you’re on a tight budget, simply getting a slice may save you a little money. Plus, we have several slice specials as well.
  • As much as we dig pizza, we acknowledge that it can be a bit high in carbs. If you order a single slice, you don’t have to feel the guilt as much. Or, consider our cauliflower crust pizza instead.

Either way, we think you’ll agree that we have some of the best pizza in town!

Tony’s Pizza is Locally Owned

Moreover, when you choose Tony’s Pizza, you’re supporting a local family who lives right here in North Carolina. Unlike when you order from a huge chain such as Pizza Hut, Domino’s, or Papa John’s, you’re our neighbor and not just a number. Similarly, this helps keep your hard-earned cash in your local community.

Likewise, since we are a small business, you will get personal customer service. Again, you aren’t just a number. While we always hope you will have no issues when you order, if you do, we are here for you. To resolve an issue, you can converse with an actual person who is committed to making sure that you are more than satisfied with our service and food.

When your stomach is growling and telling you to find fast food near me, it’s best to listen and obey! In fact, we can help solve your problem without having to drop by McDonalds, Burger King or the like. Not that they’re bad, sometimes that’s exactly what we need on occasion. However, we offer quick food that is sometimes a bit healthier and tantalizes the taste buds too.

A Brief History of Fast Food

Don’t worry, we know you’re hungry so we won’t dwell on the history of how quick and convenient restaurants came to be. However, we did find it a bit interesting when we did our research for this blog. If you can’t wait to eat and need food now, just scroll down to our delicious menu options or click the Start Takeout Order button now.

Otherwise, here are a few fast food fun facts (say that 5 times fast!).

  • White Castle opened the first fast food restaurant chain in 1921. They served burgers called sliders.
  • Notably, the idea of getting a quick bite to eat isn’t a modern dilemma. There is evidence that even ancient Rome had street vendors.
  • 2 out of 3 people eat fast food at least once per week
  • On average folks spend $148 per month on fast food

Nowadays, the fast-food market is crowded with many options such as Taco Bell, Subway, and Kentucky Fried Chicken. Unfortunately, many of these chains focus more on quick than quality. Moreover, recent nutritional studies indicate this sort of food contains high levels of salt, sugar, and preservatives.

Therefore, it may be wise to chose something a little different than what you imagine when your stomach is grumbling that you need to find fast food near me pronto. A slice of pizza from Tony’s is a great option. Generally, we can make it fast and it has some of those food groups that your body needs as well!

Luckily, just outside the downtown area lies several Galleria Mall restaurants. One of these, Tony’s Pizza, serves delicious NY style pizza and tasty authentic Italian dishes.

Other Menu Items For Those In Your Family With Bigger Appetites

Our owners, Vinny, Tony, and Mario, grew up in Brooklyn, NY in a large Italian family. From an early age, they were in the kitchen learning how to cook their favorite family dishes. In 1981, they left New York for North Carolina to open a pizzeria in Jacksonville and Havelock. Over the years they’ve expanded their reach and Tony’s menu offerings. Today, Tony’s Pizza has 6 Italian restaurants offering many Italian dishes:

Pizza

Calzones And Strombolis

An Italian creation, originally calzones were a type of “pizza on the go”. Chefs simply folded normal pizzas in half so you could eat while walking. You’ll recognize a calzone by its half-moon shape and sauce on the side for dipping.

Whereas the stromboli is an American invention by an Italian-American named Nazzareno Romano. A stromboli is rectangular or roll-shaped with the sauce baked inside with the cheese and toppings.

Salads

When you want a nutritional meal packed with minerals and vitamins, choose one of our freshly made salads. We offer 4 different salads, garden, Greek, chef, and Caesar, as a meal or a side. Moreover, just like our pizza, you can customize each with our available toppings.
