Pizza Night in Rochester
5 stops · about 3 hours · Updated October 11, 2026
Build a pizza night in Rochester & Rochester Hills, MI around a slice first and a drink afterward, with Main Street and East 4th Street stops anchoring the plan. Start with carry-out from Grant's Pizza House at 816 N Main St: its Dragonscale Double Pepperoni features old-fashioned pepperoni packed on edge, and every order includes a scratch-made chocolate chip cookie. For square slices with table service, Buddy's Pizza at 2612 N Squirrel Rd also offers vegetarian and vegan options. At 423 Main Bar Grill & Rooftop, rooftop seating, beer, wine and cocktails put the drinks portion of the evening in focus. After pizza, head to Ernie's On The Creek at 543 N Main St for a bar serving cocktails, beer and wine, plus outdoor seating along Paint Creek. Or finish at BAUS on East 4th Street, where a cocktail lounge shares space with a barbershop and weekends bring events and bottle service.
