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

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.

Tony’s Pizza and Other Tasty Menu Items

Better yet, you can get a huge 24-inch pizza. Or, you can buy it by the slice like a true New Yorker.

Likewise, we have plenty of other tasty menu items to go with your locally made pizza. Start with an appetizer such as mozzarella sticks, fried ravioli or meatballs. Or, opt for a Chef, Greek or Garden Salad to start.

Finally, finish off your pizza with a spectacular authentic Italian dessert such as our tiramisu, cannoli, limoncello mascarpone cake or cheesecake.
