Barnstormer pilots were bold, daring, and unique…just like the pizzas at Barnstormers Pizza in St. Joseph, Michigan. We snacked on some “Loaded Hangar Fries” to start. A full pound of crispy oven fries was smothered with cheddar & mozzarella, bacon, green onion slices and a drizzle of ranch dressing. It was like a loaded baked potato, but with the added crisp of fries. They were “oven” fries, so I was practically eating healthy. ;) Our first pizza was the “Control Tower,” which was described as “The Boss of the Airfield.” It was piled with ingredients including pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, sausage, bacon, ham, banana peppers, green peppers, red peppers, black olives, and spinach. The pizza was not only visually beautiful with all the bright pepper colors, it was also delicious. I’d never had spinach on a pizza before, and I loved it! Spinach on a pizza is a little daring, but sweet pickles on a pizza is bold and wildly daring! The “Crazy 8 Cubano” pays homage to the Cuban sandwich, with its Carolina Gold BBQ, mozzarella, smoked pulled pork, ham, and finished with sweet and zippy pickles. No way would I have ordered this as a pizza, but I couldn’t stop eating it. The sweet and salty symmetry combined with a wee bit of spice from the pickles, made an addictive combo that had me eating several slices too many. One of the things that impressed me about the pizzas from Barnstormers Pizza & More was the flavor and texture of the crust. Utilizing a process known as cold fermenting, the dough yields a rich, earthy flavor and noteworthy structure. This technique takes time (72 hours to be exact), but the slower the process, the more flavorful the result. We finished our dining experience with an order of “Cinnamon Knots,” which were a delightful blend of cinnamon and sugar coating a pile of buttery knots of baked dough. The side of vanilla icing was perfect for dunking. If you love pizza, but your pallet is a little more grounded, you can always create your own pizza or simply order “The Plain Plane”…your basic plain cheese pizza. Plant based alternatives as well as gluten-free and keto-friendly crust options are also available. Although they do have a couple of tables inside, it is primarily a take-out and delivery operation. Delivery is available in St. Joseph and Stevensville, as well as northern Berrien Springs and the...
Read moreWe recently ordered about 15 pizzas (all different) for a larger wedding rehearsal/welcoming party. This place caught my eye as they had a unique menu with many different varieties other than the normal cheese, sausage, pepperoni most places only offer. We arrived right at the time we asked for the pizzas to be ready at, everything was 100% correct and ready to go. I have to say the variety and excellent flavor of each pizza was a huge hit that had people talking about it all night, even quite a few tables coming to ask where we got them from. Needless to say the 1 cheese and 1 sausage pizza we did get were the last touched as everyone was extremely excited trying all the different unique flavor combos. My only regret was that I could not try them all, and the few I was able to try were all so good I am not sure which type I will order next time when I only need one or two pizzas. Thank...

The sauce and favor is on point and let me just say this, the pizza isnt greasy like pizza huts or even nardos pizza.. not even the bread knots!!!
