A pizza party is a count

Pizza party ideas get cute fast: themes, cones, and a topping bar. Brooklyn's Finest Pizza is a pizzeria at 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305. The useful idea is a count. A large is 8 slices. Plan two or three slices a person, divide by 8, and order that many larges, plus one if you are nervous. The 20-person post does the arithmetic. A smaller party is the same steps with a smaller number.

Mix the pies. One plain cheese, one specialty the group already likes, and maybe one Sicilian so there is a square. Do not make every pie a specialty. Someone will want plain. A cheese large is $19.49. Specialty larges have their own prices. Read them. Do not assume they match.

The other food

Knots at $3.99 are the starter. Wings are the other grab. A hero or two covers the person who does not want pizza. A tray of ziti or chicken parm turns the party into a meal when the group is past a few pies. Half trays serve 6–9. Full trays serve 10–15. See catering. Desserts are cannoli, zeppole, fried Oreos, and fried Twinkies. There is no pizza-party dessert package. Add the one you want.

If the party is in our dining room, call (718) 815-7070 before you invite people. The parties page is the offer. We do not publish a capacity or a decorating policy. If the party is at a house, the food is pickup or a delivery inside 4 miles. Checkout confirms the address. The shop is open until 10:00 PM, and until 10:30 PM on Friday and Saturday.

What to skip

Skip a topping bar we do not run. Create-your-own exists on a cheese pie, at the shop, not as a station in your kitchen with our ingredients. Skip a coupon stacked on a special. The specials page has NFL and weekend bundles if a bundle matches the party. Order it as printed or skip it. Skip a gluten-free promise you have not asked about. A personal gluten-free cheese pie is on the menu. Knots are not gluten-free. Say the need when you order.

Skip a late plan. We close at 10:00 or 10:30. A party that starts at 9:00 PM is a bad fit. Order the food for the hour people will eat, and pick it up before close.

One list, one name

Order at Order Online, which is order.brooklynsfinestsi.com, or call (718) 815-7070. On an iPhone or iPad, the app sends the same menu. Write pies, knots, and anything else on one ticket with one name. A pizza party with three people ordering three ways is how a pie gets left off.

Pizza party ideas that work here are plain pies, one pie with a topping, a square if you want it, knots, and a tray if the count climbed. The room is a phone call. The house is a pickup. The address is 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305. Count slices, order the pies, and let people eat. That is the party. The theme can be whatever you hang on the wall. The food does not need one. Count people, give them two or three slices, divide by eight, and order that many larges. Keep one pie plain. Add knots. Add a tray only when the count climbed past what boxes can do. Call if they are coming to the dining room. Pick up if they are staying home, unless checkout accepts the address. Close is 10:00 or 10:30. One name on the ticket. Gluten-free is a personal pie you have to request, not a surprise in the stack. Desserts are separate. There is no party package hiding behind the word ideas. The idea is pies people will eat, ready before we lock the door, at 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305. Write the list. Call it in. Let the party be the people. The pizza is the easy part once the number is honest. Leftovers are allowed. Running out because you rounded down is the mistake. Round up by one pie if you are unsure, then stop adding themes. Two or three slices each, eight slices a large, one plain pie in the stack, knots on the side, a tray only if the count outgrew the boxes. Call for the dining room. Pick up for a house unless checkout accepts the address. One name. Done before 10:00 or 10:30. Gluten-free is a separate personal pie. Desserts are separate. There is no hidden party package. The idea is pies people will finish, ordered with a number you wrote down, from 1250 Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island, NY 10305. Let the people be the party. Let the pizza be the food. Leftovers can wait until tomorrow in a hot oven. An empty box at 8:00 PM cannot. Count, order, pick up, eat. That is the idea that works. The cute version can stay on someone else's blog. Count slices, order the pies, pick them up before close, and let people eat. One plain pie belongs in the stack. Knots are the side. Pick up before the door closes.
