Mercury Pizza Company Midtown — Restaurant in Hattiesburg

Maybe I expected too much based off of reviews, but I just did not enjoy my trip to Mercury Pizza co. The breadsticks were great and the pizza was good (not the best), but the atmosphere was just off for me. It definitely could have been because they were busy and trying to get orders in, but it just wasn’t the best customer service.
