3 Outstanding pizza places near Regent’s campus
We all have those nights — the kind where you are too tired to cook or have too many people to cook for. Maybe you and your friends want to go out, but Applebee’s and IHOP have lost their appeal. Your mind goes to pizza, and the more you think about it, the better it sounds.
Now, we all know Little Caesar’s is the cheapest and closest to campus, but maybe you’d like to try something new. Thankfully, this year’s Best of Hampton Roads contest recently provided a list of the best pizza places in Chesapeake. The best part is that all three winners are less than 15 minutes from Regent’s campus.
