Pizza Near the American Museum of Natural History — Pizza Pete's

North of AMNH, on Columbus between 85th and 86th

The American Museum of Natural History sits at 79th Street and Central Park West. Pizza Pete's is a short walk north of that entrance, at 528 Columbus Avenue between 85th and 86th Street — one neighborhood shop, not a kiosk on the museum steps.

If you searched pizza near AMNH or pizza after the Museum of Natural History, this is the slice stop once you leave the park wall and head up toward the mid-80s.

What to eat after a museum morning

The counter serves NY-style cheese, pepperoni, Margherita, white, Sicilian, fresh mozzarella, grandma, buffalo chicken, veggie, and build-your-own pies. Specialty slices include buffalo chicken, chicken parm, white, Sicilian fresh mozzarella, grandma, and pepperoni.

Garlic Knots, salads, calzones, and pasta entrees are there if the group is split between a quick slice and a sit-down plate.

Walk over, take out, or have it delivered

One shop, same hours after the exhibits

We have been on Columbus Avenue since 2003. There is no second location closer to the museum — the walk north is the walk to Pete's.
