Fantastic local Detroit style pizza! Everything was served super hot and fresh. You can't skip the meatballs, they're killer. It's definitely one of the better pizzas you can get in town and I thought it was well worth the drive from RR.

We thought this place was a unique find. This dog-friendly coffee shop, bar, and food truck were a perfect spot for everyone. We ordered pizza, and the service was exceptional; he explained he uses all fresh ingredients. We grabbed a drink and waited. We noticed a BBQ truck that smelled amazing, we plan on trying that soon. Our pizza arrived, and it was phenomenal!! It's worth paying for the Uber to get there. The KB special was terrific! I have a new desire for Detroit-style pizza. Its not all the same. We ordered pizza a block off 6th Street next to our condo and it was so disappointing. After Bat city pies it will be hard to compare.

Really great Detroit style pizza. I look forward to returning. The sauce is the best part of the pizza - perfect amount of saltiness and a really unique flavor in the tomato I have been thinking about every day since my first visit. Cheese is also amazing. The dough had a little bit of chewiness to it but that's REALLY splitting hairs. I still can't recommend this pizza more. Great place to eat before a concert at Emos or Come and Take It Live. And goes perfectly with a Pecan Porter from The Buzz Mill!

one of the best pizzas i’ve ever had. i kept trying to think about why this pizza was so perfect, and the answer is: because of everything. the sauce is delicious, the crust is delicious, the cheese is delicious and the pepperoni is delicious. it’s so good, i think about it often

Wow, just WOW! I tried this place on a whim because of an article I read and I was not disappointed. I was actually blown away. I had the pepperoni and it absolutely nailed every aspect of Detroit style. The crust was pillowy and soft with a nice crisp on the bottom. The sauce was bright and perfectly sweet and tangy perfectly balancing the richness from the cheese and cupped pepperoni. The slightly golden parmesan on top delivered a punch of intense flavor. And the best part, my favorite part: the crispy cheese on the edges of the crust was perfectly crispy and golden brown. No “bald” spots either, every piece offered the perfect bite. The ratios were also perfect. I’ve found most Detroit pizza to be too bread heavy, but this one was perfectly balanced with crust, sauce and cheese. I’ve been to Via and Jets. Neither compelled me to come back in favor of a traditional NY style. I usually go to Home Slice for NY style or Conan’s for deep dish instead. The fact I would now prefer Bat City Pies over either of those with this style compelled me to write this. And a shorter drive from my place? Too good to be true! Thank you for the incredible pizza!

Bat City Pies is hands down the best pizza in Austin! This is my favorite, the ‘Don’t Call Me Darlin’ white pie. Really pairs well with a shot of Jim Beam and a cold PBR tall boy.

This has got to be the best Detroit style pizza in the state. The bread is fluffy. Sauce was sweet & full of flavor. The cheese was crisped perfectly on everything. I can't wait to come back for more!

Hear me out. Bat City Pies makes Detroit pizza in Austin. Motown is the nickname for Detroit. They should be delivering pizza in the Batmobile. You’re welcome universe. Pizzas are great. Put BCP high up on your pizza list.
