Last night my wife and I ate here for the first time. We arrived just as they were closing, and the owner (Lenny) not only unlocked the door and let us in, but personally made us what might be our new favorite pizza of all time.
He asked what we would like. I explained that my wife and I spent a few years managing pizza restaurants, and I asked him to make whatever he suggested. He made us a “kitchen sink pizza”, everything on it except pineapple, and it was phenomenal!
The vegetables were fresh, the sausage and chicken were delicious, the crust was the perfect thickness (just the right amount of crispy and chewy), and the cheese topped it off perfectly.
This is 100% my new go-to place for pizza. Thanks for the great experience, Lenny, and I look forward to many more in the future.

Pizza most importantly requires two things: quality ingredients, and proper balance. Papa Farm Pizza seriously nailed both. Ingredients are farm fresh where they can be, and it shows up in the flavor. Fresh cheese tastes worlds different than bagged cheese with starches to keep it in shreds. Fresh tomatoes and herbs all bring so much more depth of flavor to the food. The Margherita pizza was, I think, the best I’ve had. The balance of the fresh sweet basil and sauce was spot on: enough acidity to bring out the tomato, but enough basil and olive oil to bring out the sweet herb and earthy flavors. Done temp on the pizza was exactly to my liking: a bit of brown for some bold flavor, but not to the point of eating sauce and cheese on a burnt cracker. It had just the right “chew” for my preference. We have 5 young kids and finding something, anything, they all enjoy is a challenge, but they went through the cheese pizza like piranha. Staff was very attentive and kind. Ambience was nice with screens to peek at occasionally. Can’t wait to go back for more.

1st time there. Got a small thin crust sausage and cheese. It was good but not a lot of sausage. Its was ground and pretty tasteless. You get a bunch of sausage at Caseys and that’s in a gas station. They need a better italion pizza sausage.

One of the best pizza places I’ve been to in the area as a top reviewer of such places I give my approval it’s a really good family owned business which I like to see. The food is top notch and the service is excellent, the fry cook they have now is top notch and he makes it fantastic, he makes it like it’s for himself. Quality meals. And the ribs they have now are just to die for. Along with their smoked meats such as the chicken and pork is all smoked now, so no matter if it’s on a pizza or a sandwich it’s the same and it’s mouth watering. In my opinion this is the best restaurant in town. And the wait times are extremely low especially with appetizers you get them right away. And if you want something made special or specific to your needs let them know and they will accommodate. I’d eat here everyday if I could. Truly one of the most underrated restaurants in downtown historic Knox, it really is pizza worth driving for. And don’t even get me started on their wagon cart. The wood fired pizza is the best

Wherever we have lived we always like to find a local pizza joint. This is, by far, one of the best ones we have found.
We normally get a 16 inch pepperoni & sausage but tonight we wanted to try their breakfast pizza.
It was pretty delicious! It was almost like a breakfast casserole, honestly. I’d the say the only thing that could make it better, would be putting more sawmill gravy on top… Because, who doesn’t like more gravy?
I always look forward to our pizza nights from Papa Farm!

We walked in and were immediately seated and had our drinks! The server was probably the most caring and informative that has ever served me anywhere! She was genuinely interested in our opinion on everything and I think that’s super important! We order a large pizza ten garlicparm wings and a order of the baked breadsticks! And I’m going to tell you every part of it was the best we’ve ever had anywhere hands down! The wings were not breaded which is perfectly ok with me but perfectly crisp with a garlic parm sauce and they are to die for! The pizza was absolute perfection I can’t find a single thing to be negative about here! The breadsticks blow every other pizza or sandwhich shop out of the water with a crisp crust and a seasoning that is beyond perfection! Holy hell why did we ever wait to try this place! I recomend not only the restraunt but the entire staff to! They are the greatest friendliest and most informative group of people to ever run a pizza place! They were regularly passionate about our opinion on each item and just passionate about thier buisness all together! Thank you all for having us and this will be our permanent date night pizza from now on!
