More Home Slice
For pizza lovers who feel a little cramped at the incredibly popular Home Slice Pizza on South Congress and for those who wish they could get a tasty New York-style slice seven days a week, there’s good news on the way.
As you’ve probably noticed, part of the space next door to Home Slice — which was previously home to a sewing shop — is being transformed into additional pizza space. The operation at 1421 S. Congress, which is adjacent to Stag (formerly Washburn’s cleaners), will be called More Home Slice and will serve slices and take-out exclusively.
I imagine this means shorter lines/less congestion at the original Home Slice and more oven space for in-house diners. More Home Slice also means people will be able to purchase slices all day long and not just during specified hours, as is currently the situation at the original. Additionally, More Home Slice will be open seven days a week, so pizza lovers will not be left to wander the streets on Tuesday nights.
A manager at Home Slice told me that they were shooting for a Tuesday, Feb. 2 opening. The plan is to have More Home Slice open the same hours as the current location, with individual slices being sold until 11 p.m. Monday-Thursday, 3 a.m. on Friday and Saturday and 10 p.m. on Sundays.

Good. Now maybe they can start focusing on quality again. I’m tired of getting undercooked pies.

I’m so totally excited! I wonder if MHS will have salads available too. Either way, I am looking forward to the extension and am happy to see such a cool, local pizza joint do a little growing. It’s a neat space too.
