The atmosphere is cozy. Interesting little signs and such at which to look. Pizza is okay. Could be the brick oven crust is just not to my liking. Would eat here again if invited, but would not be my first choice in town.

Another one of our 'must eat at' places in Columbia when we visit. I have eaten a lot of pizza and this is one of the best. Great crust and topping, lots of cheese -- love it!

One of my all-time favorite pizza joints in Columbia... a true Columbia, MO staple. Best salads, pizza, they have gluten free, and vegetarian options. Fantastic place!

Finally got to try Shakespeare's and it was worth the wait! The crust was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Not too much sauce and nice gooey cheese. Crowded at any time but we got in without a huge wait....at 4pm on a Saturday. Can't wait to try the frozen version that's available in the local grocery... More

A Columbia icon, but just an average pizza place. The best time to go is for lunch when you can get pizza by the slice,

You cannot find better pizza in Columbia. The setting is great and the staff very helpful. A gem in the heart of downtown.

This is the best pizza ever (and I lived in Chicago for 12 years). My husband, a Chicago native, agrees. Get it with pepper cheese. It really makes the pie! Fun family-friendly, but still college cool atmosphere.
