Toppers Pizza

Expanding the downtown pizza district

Toppers Pizza recently opened on William on what was already the most pizza-dense stretch of Ann Arbor. Within a one-block radius of William and Maynard are three pizza parlors, each with a unique claim to fame: NYPD (New York style, and often voted best, period), NeoPapalis (the only Neapolitan pizza in town), and Cottage Inn (the original pizza in Ann Arbor). You might expect Toppers founder and president Scott Gittrich to defend his entrance into this spot with some fancy talk about market segmentation, but he's having none of it.

What's happening in local stores and eateries, and restaurant reviews.
