It’s kind of dingy, but that’s honestly the ONLY negative thing I can think of (and it’s really just because of the history of the buildings here). The food (especially the pizza) is amazing and their servers and bartenders are so attentive and nice! They don’t serve martinis or old fashioneds because it’s more of a craft beer place with basic drinks, but their sister bar next door has more high end items and we’re looking forward to trying it soon!

I’ve lived in Athens for years, and I love pizza, so why have I never been here? Oh yea, it is because I assumed it would be populated by college kids and the pizza would be very overrated at best (like Avalanche) and bad at worst.
The day I finally ventured here there weren’t any customers (over Summer), and the pizza was surpringly good (easily surpassing my low expectations). The crust was thin and good, the cheese had flavor, and the sauce had a bit of tang. They also have decent fried pickles, which are something that most restaurants just get wrong from a variety of reasons. I don’t like that they use styrofoam plates.
Anyway, I plan to add this to my list of pizza places.

Tried the veggie pizza at Courtside Pizza and it didn’t disappoint.
Fresh mushrooms, green peppers, onions, and black olives gave every bite a nice balance of flavor. The cheese was melty and not too greasy, and the sauce had a nice tang.

We went here because a friend went to college in Athens and said this was his favorite pizza while he was in school down there. I thought the pizza was alright. We also ordered side salads and waffle chips with Cajun seasoning. The salads were jam packed in those tiny bowls. The chips were crispy and flavorful.
The men’s restroom was unique as the walls are brick and metal. 3 different heights of urinals. The stall door was odd as it was high off the floor. I liked the sink. It is like one found in a kitchen. Deep metal with tons of room to wash your hands(the opposite of a typical small porcelain sink).
The music being played was country. It was really loud too. I saw a couple groups sit down and then move to the courtyard outside where it was not as loud.
Would I go back? Most definitely.

Had a great Homecoming weekend in Athens at OU. Spent time at Courtside. Great pizza and outdoor patio. Especially enjoyed Maleah, Lindsay and Melissa working behind the bar keeping the drinks flowing.

We were doordashing recently, and while waiting for the order saw roaches having a grand ol’ time running around on the pizza…the pizza that they have sitting out and selling slices from. I have a video of this, but apparently Google reviews doesn’t let you post videos only pictures I used to wanna eat from here, but I definitely would not now after what I saw and I FOR SURE would not be eating the slices they having sitting out. Very gross

Bar server on 11/12 couldn’t give any less. She really couldn’t. Came to grab a bite to eat and round of drinks. Ordered the slushie and it came out with a stir stick you couldn’t drink through. Ordered an app and and it never came out until the pizzas. Ordered a white chicken pizza and a Marg pizza. White chicken was good but Marg was a normal cheese pizza they put tomatoes on. Got a spec book? I’ll add a picture so you know I’m not making this up. It just sucked and we usually love this place. Guess it was just a Sunday.

I had a great time at courtside. Kent was an awesome bartender. He went above and beyond. His recommendations of the garlic chicken pizza will it make me a consistent customer!

Definitely more of a take out place if you’re just looking to eat. The food is incredible, though, and the staff are as well. There was a slight miscommunication on my order and they were so polite and fixed the problem immediately. The cheesy garlic bread is probably in the top ten best cheesy foods in existence.
