OC Restaurant Quest – Perry’s Pizza in Downtown Clawson
(Crystal A. Proxmire, Feb. 28, 2024)
Clawson, MI – The quest to try every restaurant in Oakland County continues with a pretty darn good pizza from Perry’s Pizza in Downtown Clawson.
Perry’s Pizza has been a staple in Downtown Clawson for over 40 years, proudly serving quality pizza, subs, and salads. For my inaugurial visit I ordered the BLT pizza made with mozzarella cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayo. This was an indulent treat, with soft greasy crust, fresh toppings and a cheesy flavor that I loved. Perry’s has a few specialty pizza choices, indlucing the Hawaiian which has bacon, pineapple, and ham. There’s also a BBQ chicken. For those that want to create their own, there’s a pretty standard menu of topping choices including green peppers, mild pepper rings, jalapenos, onions, ground beef, and feta among others. Crusts can be ordered with butter, cajun, garlic, or parmsean flavors.
Perry’s is also known for their subs and salads. The Italian Sub, for example, has ham, cheese, salami, lettuce, tomato, onion and mild pepper rings.
For salads the choices are antipasto, Green, and Garden. For dessert one might enjoy fresh baked cinnamon sticks or an 8 inch chocolate chip cookie pizza.
I liked my pizza, and it’s clear to see why Perry’s has had a longtime base of community support in Clawson and neighboring cities like Royal Oak, Madison Heights, and Troy. They’re located at 665 S. Main street in Downtown Clawson. Check them out online at www.PerrysPizzaMI.com.
