Joe's Pizza | 7 Carmine Street, NYC, New York (near the junction of 6th Avenue and Bleecker Street) ⏰10am to 4am ☏ (212) 366-1182
Joe's Pizza in Greenwich Village is a famous pizza shop (founded 1975) that serves pizzas NYC style by the slice (as well as pies, of course). 

In the 2004 movie Spider-Man 2, when he is not saving the world, Spider-Man is a delivery man for Joe's Pizza :-D

Despite its Spider-Man fame, the original Joe's Pizza is still very much a friendly neighbourhood food stop. Regulars pop in all the time while occasionally, a flock of tourists troop in as part of guided "food tours". 

(Now Joe's Pizza have many outlets, this article is about the original location feature in Spider-Man 2.)

A real New York City breakfast / brunch. A slice of pizza, soda (usually root beer) and newspaper on a ledge (yeah, this was still early social media days in 2014).

There are only a handful of stools in the tiny shop, so most customers eat standing around cocktail tables and ledges.

Joe's Pizza have many regulars coming back for many reasons. I will be back for this thin crispy crust.

The dough is flipped at the premise, several hundred times a day.

My slice with tomato sauce and fresh mozzarella served on a paper plate for USD3.50 (2014 price). I like simple pizzas like this sort of "Margherita-minus".

Folding it like a good New Yorker. I could hear the bread creaked and snapped as I folded the slice.

View of the last bite before I ate it.

The crust was nicely crispy while the cheese and tomato topping were thin and slightly dry, which is easily remedied with additional toppings ;-D  Flavour was a tasty balance of mildly savoury and sweet.

Basic, simple, no frills but just perfect for a tasty convenient meal-on-the-go for the go-getting New York City lifestyle.

The plastic bottles of condiments like dried chili flakes and dried oregano which customers can help themselves to.


Enjoy Joe's Pizza in the Spider-Man 2 movie.
