Okay! I know Pizz’Amici is all the rage, but just checked out Lockal and it was excellent tavern style. This is their Cevapci and onion pizza. Most of the staff and patrons are of Croatian / Bosnian / Yugoslavian descent. Cozy vibe, good hospitality, and delicious pizza. Excited to check out more of their food.

Good on you for posting something that’s not the current flavor/restaurant de jour!
I’ve really been meaning to check this place out. Thanks for the proverbial foot in the ass.
I need to check both these places out 👀
Kinda stingy with the amount of sausage.
Never seen cube shaped sausage before.
I had this place delivered a few times during the pandemic. Pretty decent tbh, and good crisp to it. Had a unique taste overall, I recall hearing it’s owned by Eastern Europeans so you get some of their flavors in it. Could be wrong.
I always wondered about this place. As someone that married into a Balkan family, I think I’ll shave to check it out.

This place is awesome. Their smoked beef pizza is amazing
Shhhh. No. This place is terrible. Do not visit.
Sincerely,
Trying to gatekeep this delicious, affordable spot
Yum
Their pizza slaps and their burgers are damn good too. That jalapeno popper burger is 👩🍳😘.
But never get their chicken lol. It’s basically nuggets from the frozen section of Walmart.
That looks delicious! I think native Chicagoians don’t realize how good they have it. Just about any hole in the wall pizzeria makes passable pizza in Chi town.
I grew up there but currently live on the west coast. What passes for pizza here is sad 😂
Thanks for posting. I’ve been looking for a new pizza delivery joint int eh neighborhood.
Who else remembers smoking in there? (Circa 2016-2017)
I haven’t had the pizza, but stopped in twice for beer and was sad that they only have all the big company lagers. I’d love for them to get a local or craft beer in there.
Yo Hot Honey pie ftw!!!!! Amazing selection of sausages but I actually go pepperoni. And the staff always been legit AF toward me, I always pick up.
I have yet to see a tavern style pizza that looks appealing to me.
Need to try this place!
Looks amazing!

The one time I walked in there a few years back, I walked right back out because the few people in there at the bar were smoking cigarettes. This was long past the ban too.
Best smoked beef pizza in the city
Im picky about ingredient dispersal. This picture helps avoid. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing. Inspired bo this post, we ordered in from them tonight and got the cevapci and onion. Might be our new go-to for pizza delivery.
