There’s something sacred about the phrase pizza by the slice in New York City.
It’s not just a way to eat – it’s a way of life. You grab it on your lunch break, after a Broadway show, between errands, or on your way home after the subway doors close. It’s fast, it’s hot, it’s comforting, and it’s uniquely New York.

And nowhere does that tradition come alive quite like the Upper West Side. This neighborhood knows the meaning of comfort food – and the joy of finding that perfect, foldable, flavor-packed slice.

At Two Boots Upper West Side, we take that classic New York tradition and turn it into something extraordinary. Our pizza by the slice is more than just convenient – it’s colorful, Cajun-inspired, and full of character. Every slice tells a story, baked with love, spice, and a little attitude.

So, whether you’re running to Lincoln Center, catching up with friends at Riverside Park, or just craving something satisfying after a long day – stop by Two Boots. Because when it comes to pizza by the slice on the Upper West Side, no one does it quite like we do.

A Slice of New York Tradition

Every New Yorker has their “slice story.” Maybe it’s the first time you ate standing on the sidewalk, juggling a paper plate and a soda. Or maybe it’s your go-to late-night spot after a concert, the one that always hits the spot.

That’s the beauty of pizza by the slice – it’s personal, spontaneous, and universal all at once. You don’t have to plan for it. You just know where to go when the craving hits.

The Upper West Side has always been one of those neighborhoods where pizza means connection – families stopping in after school, friends grabbing a quick bite before a show, students and professionals refueling between classes and meetings.

And Two Boots fits right into that rhythm.

We’re here for the spontaneous lunch breaks, the post-movie munchies, the strolls down Amsterdam Avenue that lead to a warm, cheesy slice that makes the day better.

But what makes our pizza special isn’t just that it’s convenient – it’s that every slice has personality.

Pizza by the Slice – The Two Boots Way

Sure, you can find pizza by the slice on nearly every corner of Manhattan. But not every slice is made with the same love – or the same kick.

At Two Boots, we believe a slice should never feel like an afterthought. It should be just as flavorful, balanced, and memorable as a full pie.

Here’s how we do it:

A Cornmeal Crust That Crunches Back

Our secret weapon is the cornmeal-dusted crust – golden, crispy, and a little rustic. It holds up perfectly under the weight of bold toppings and flavorful sauces. One bite, and you’ll hear that satisfying crunch – the sound every New Yorker recognizes as a great slice.

Sauces with Soul

Our Cajun-Italian roots are what make every Two Boots slice stand out. We don’t just rely on one sauce; we layer flavor like an artist mixes paint. From our classic tomato base with a hint of spice to basil pesto and sweet red pepper pesto, each one adds its own character to the experience.

Toppings That Tell a Story

Every Two Boots pizza has a personality. Our slices are like characters – bold, unique, and full of flavor. You’ll find artichokes, spicy vegan sausage, caramelized onions, roasted garlic, and vegan cheese melting into harmony. Each combination is crafted with care, giving every slice a signature twist.

Because at Two Boots, pizza by the slice isn’t just a snack – it’s a craft.

Slices That Steal the Show

At Two Boots Upper West Side, we’re known for our creative pies – but when you get them by the slice, the flavor hits even harder. It’s that perfect ratio of crispy crust to gooey topping, that one hot, fresh slice that doesn’t need anything else to make your day.

Here are just a few of our fan favorites that truly shine by the slice:

🍕 Tony Clifton

Tony-Clifton Pizza

Smoky, sweet, and a little mysterious – just like its namesake. This slice is loaded with mushrooms, Vidalia onions, and a layer of sweet red pepper pesto that ties it all together. Every bite gives you a perfect mix of sweet and savory with a touch of Southern soul.

🍕 Mr. Pink

Mr-Pink Pizza

Simple. Elegant. Timeless. Fresh plum tomatoes, garlic, and mozzarella come together for a clean, classic flavor that never gets old. It’s the slice that proves sometimes less really is more.

🍕 V for Vegan

V-for-Vegan

The hero of our vegan menu – and a total crowd favorite. It’s loaded with artichokes, red onions, shiitake mushrooms, basil pesto, and Daiya vegan cheese. It’s rich, creamy, and so good you won’t believe it’s plant-based.

🍕 Super Vegan

Super-Vegan

Big, bold, and beautiful – that’s how we describe the Super Vegan. It’s piled high with broccoli, artichokes, mushrooms, onions, and double pestos. It’s a feast in slice form.

Whether you’re a vegan, vegetarian, or carnivore, every Two Boots slice feels personal – like it was made just for you.
