Ordering pizza for a group always raises the same question: how much is enough without drowning in leftovers? There is a simple way to get it right almost every time.

The two-slice rule

Plan on about two slices per adult. Our large pies are an 18-inch, cut into 8 generous slices, so each one feeds roughly four people. A quick formula: multiply the number of guests by two, then divide by eight, and round up. For 20 adults, that is 40 slices, or about 5 pizzas.

1. Count your guests
2. Multiply by 2 slices each
3. Divide by 8 slices per 18-inch pizza
4. Round up — leftovers are better than running short

Adjust for your crowd

• Mostly kids: figure about one slice each
• Big appetites or no other food: bump to three slices each
• Lots of sides, salads, or appetizers: scale the pizza down a bit
• A mix of pies: order a couple of crowd-pleasers (cheese, pepperoni) plus a specialty or two

When in doubt, ask

For bigger events, catering takes the math off your plate entirely — tell us your headcount and we will help you size the order so everyone eats well.
