List of pizza chains

This list of pizzerias includes notable pizzerias and pizza chains. Pizza is a dish of Neapolitan origin and cuisine, made with an oven-baked, flat, generally round bread that is often covered with tomatoes or a tomato-based sauce and mozzarella cheese. Other toppings are added according to region, culture, or personal preference.

A shop or restaurant where pizzas are made and sold as main food is called a pizzeria (Italian pronunciation: [pittseˈriːa]). The phrases “pizza parlor,” "pizza place" and "pizza shop" are used in the United States. The term pizza pie is dialectal, and pie is used for simplicity in some contexts, such as among pizzeria staff.
