We’ve always known our Rogers Park neighbors have great taste, but it’s official: Candlelite has been named one of the 8 BEST tavern-style pizza joints in Chicago!
For 75 years, we’ve been firing up that cracker-thin crust and keeping the martini marquee blinking. It’s an honor to be recognized alongside some of the absolute best thin-crust icons in the city.
A huge shoutout to our fellow pizza makers who also made the list—Chicago truly is the tavern-style capital of the world! 🍻
Come celebrate with a square-cut pie and a cold drink this week. Thanks for the love, Chicago: https://www.chowhound.com/2120812/best-tavern-style-pizza-chicago/
