McKinney lies deep in Texas suburbia, where small-town history meets modern growth—and its pizza scene reflects it.
From creative, wood-fired kitchens to family-run delivery legends, here are McKinney’s top pizzerias for 2025.
1. Cadillac Pizza Pub
A downtown McKinney institution, Cadillac serves up gourmet, wood-fired pies with innovative toppings and a Texas twist.
Try the “Texas Heat” (jalapeño, smoked sausage, spicy honey) or the “Goat & Fig” for something unique.
A full bar, live music, and vintage ambiance make Cadillac a must-visit for evenings out.
2. Durkin’s Pizza
Known for giant slices, classic hand-tossed crusts, and generous toppings, Durkin’s is a classic, neighborhood-family joint.
Their “Durkin’s Deluxe” (all the meats and veggies), thin-crust pepperoni, and “White Pizza” are crowd favorites.
Daily lunch specials, fast takeout, and friendly faces make Durkin’s a dog-eared page in McKinney’s pizza book.
3. Sauced Wood Fired Pizza
For Italian authenticity, Sauced fires up a gold-tiled oven and imports flour for crusts with perfect leopard spotting.
The “Nonna’s” with homemade meatballs, “Pesto Chicken,” and a strong vegan menu bring flavor and variety.
Their craft beer selection and chic, contemporary space make it ideal for dinner with friends.
4. Mr. Jim’s Pizza
A consistent, beloved chain for families, Mr. Jim’s is praised for affordable “Pizza D’Lish,” loaded stuffed crust, wings, and fast, reliable delivery.
The “Meat Eater” and “Pepperoni Deluxe” pies feed every hungry group, and custom combos abound.
Don’t overlook their cheese bread and dessert pizza.
5. Zalat Pizza
A newcomer with cult status, Zalat makes extra-large, creatively topped pies, often with Southeast Asian influences—think “Pho Shizzle” (hoisin, Sriracha, beef, roasted onions, Thai basil) or “Elote” (street corn, hot sauce, cheese). Zalat wins the after-hours crowd with late delivery and a funky sense of humor.
