Staff Picks: Favorite Pizza in Dutchess

Date Published: February 9, 2021

Happy National Pizza Day! In honor, our staff is sharing their favorite spots to grab a slice (or pie!) in Dutchess County.

Emiliano’s, Poughkeepsie

Their pizza has the perfect crust-sauce-cheese ratio for deliciousness in every bite!
- Melaine Rottkamp, President & CEO

This is my favorite pizza spot not only because of their delicious food, but because of their family friendly environment and ability to make you feel like a valued customer each and every time you are there.
- Janine Metzger, Director of Finance & Human Resources

Pizzeria Posto, Rhinebeck

For the best wood fired artisan pizza, Patrick Amedeo delivers at Pizzeria Posto! The menu includes tomato-based classics like Margherita and Marinara but also features creations like the Morandi with grana padano cheese, red onions, pistachios and rosemary.
- Dawn Hopper, Director of Tour & Travel

Lolita’s, Poughkeepsie

The delicious wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas definitely makes Lolita’s one of my favorite local spots, plus their homemade pastas pair perfectly with pizza! Their white mushroom pizza and kale salad are some of my family’s favorites, and we love the thin, crispy texture of all of their pies.
- Colleen Dorney, Director of Outreach & Operations

Florina’s, Fishkill

If I’m looking for a good ol’ classic slice, this is definitely it! But I can’t let their thin crust square wood fired pizzas go unnoticed, like the Grandma or Malezane - so good!
- Kacie Vassari, Digital Media Manager

Zeus Brewing Company, Poughkeepsie

The hand-tossed brick oven pizza’s from Zeus Brewing Company is my new favorite spot for when my friends and I are craving some pizza. I love the variety of specialty pies that they offer. I’ve only worked my way through a few of them, but currently my favorite is the BBQ pie!
