Ep. 41: Two Cities Pizza Company Wins America’s Best Restroom 2021
Pizza, Bathrooms & Peace Treaties: The Two Cities Pizza Story
Speaking of competitions, let’s pivot to a juicier battle: New York vs. Chicago pizza. Enter the Two Cities Pizza Company from Mason, Ohio (aka “neutral pizza territory”). These college buddies decided enough was enough—why fight over pizza styles when you can have both?
They nailed it. Twice crowned Best Pizza in Cincinnati, their joint offers both New York thin crust and Chicago deep dish under one roof. It’s basically pizza diplomacy at its finest.
But here’s the kicker: they didn’t just win for their pizza prowess. Nope. In 2021, Two Cities snagged the prestigious title of America’s Best Restroom. Yes, you read that right—a pizza place with a bathroom so good it made headlines.
Why? Because their bathroom is a subway station fantasy come true: subway train doors, travel announcements, subway handles on sinks, and authentic graffiti. It’s like taking a bathroom break in the NYC subway, minus the rats and questionable smells (though, full disclosure, it probably still smells like New York).
They earned themselves $2,500 in Cintas cleaning products, a spot in the restroom hall of fame, and a prime spot on their website to brag about it. And honestly? They should brag. They care about employees (closed Mondays to rest up), community (10% of Tuesday night orders go to local nonprofits), and making rad pizza—and bathrooms.
Why We Love Two Cities Pizza
Besides the bathroom flex, these guys are community champions. They support nonprofits feeding orphans, providing humanitarian aid, and helping kids in need. Plus, their pizza is legit (even if my aging stomach now limits me to two slices before the dreaded 2 a.m. cheese bomb tummy ache).
If you find yourself in Mason, Ohio, do yourself a favor: eat their pizza and use their legendary restroom. And hey, if you’ve tried it, shout at me! I want the full scoop on their pizza and bathroom greatness.
