For many of our guests, we're a taste of home. For others, we're their first introduction to what real Chicago pizza is all about.
More Than Pizza—It's Chicago Tradition
Most people know Chicago for deep dish, but locals know there are two iconic pizza styles.
The first is deep dish—a buttery crust layered with mozzarella, toppings, and rich tomato sauce. The second is Chicago's legendary tavern-style pizza, featuring a thin, crispy crust that's cut into small squares and perfect for sharing with family and friends.
For generations, neighborhood pizzerias and taverns throughout Chicago have served this style, making it a staple of family dinners, celebrations, and game days. At Hillary's Chicago Pizza, we're proud to bring both authentic Chicago pizza traditions to St. Augustine so guests can experience the flavors that have made Chicago famous.
A Restaurant Built on Community
Owner Hillary Lake has spent her career bringing people together through food and service. With a background in social work and culinary education, she has always believed that a meal can create connection, inclusion, opportunity, and lasting memories.
Before opening Hillary's Chicago Pizza, Hillary developed a successful food truck concept and spent years teaching culinary skills at the North Florida School of Special Education. Those experiences shaped a simple mission:
Create a place where everyone feels welcome around the table.
Today that mission continues through our restaurant, catering services, food truck, family cooking experiences, and partnerships throughout St. Johns County.
We're more than a pizza restaurant—we're a gathering place where neighbors become friends and celebrations become traditions.
