01 The story, in three paragraphs

Why everyone keeps coming back.

Halftime Pizza, nestled in the heart of San Antonio on Tezel Road, is much more than your average pizza joint—it’s a vibrant celebration of classic American and Italian flavors with a spirited sports bar atmosphere that perfectly balances casual fun and family comfort. Whether you’re craving the satisfying snap of a perfectly baked pizza crust or the rich, savory layers of a hearty sub, this beloved neighborhood spot has you covered.

The menu at Halftime Pizza is a flavorful tour through some of the most beloved dishes across multiple categories. Start with their fresh, crisp salads like the Traditional Salad textured with leafy greens, cherry tomatoes, and black olives, or the Caprese Salad featuring sliced mozzarella paired with fried green tomatoes and aromatic basil—each bursting with freshness and ideal for a lighter bite. For heartier fare, their hot subs are simply irresistible. The TexPhilly Cheese Sub combines chopped sirloin with melted provolone and a tangy twist of Frank’s Red Hot sauce, while the Chicken Parmesan Sub layers fried breaded chicken tenders, provolone, and marinara into a satisfying harmony of flavors.

Of course, the true stars of Halftime Pizza are their pizzas, wings, and legendary pizza rolls. Customers rave about the perfectly baked pizzas with crusts that strike a flawless balance between flaky and chewy, adorned with fresh, thoughtfully chosen toppings that dance across the palate. The wings are another standout—whether drenched in lemon pepper buffalo sauce that manages to keep the perfect crunch or tossed in vibrant mango habanero glaze, they deliver bold, juicy flavor with a crispy bite that keeps you coming back for more. The pizza rolls, packed with flavorful fillings and fried to golden perfection, are praised for their irresistible crispiness and make a perfect appetizer or snack to share.

Halftime Pizza is absolutely phenomenal! The service is top-notch—friendly, fast, and always on point. Now, let’s talk about the food: the pizza rolls are out of this world, packed with flavor and perfectly crispy. The wings are next level—juicy, tender, and coated in the most delicious sauces. And the pizza? Simply amazing! Perfectly baked with fresh toppings and a crust that’s just the right amount of crispy and chewy. This is my go-to spot for a great meal, whether I’m dining in or taking out. Highly recommend Halftime Pizza if you’re looking for quality food and amazing service. Keep up the great work!

We’ve been going to Halftime Pizza since the day it opened. The wings are some of the best around, the pizza is amazing, and the pizza rolls are legendary. Combine that with people who truly care about what they do and their customers, and you’ve got a place that’s become a staple for our family. To top it off, I had the best pizza I’ve ever had there yesterday. I literally forgot to take a picture of the whole pizza because it looked so good i had to jump right in. Big thanks to Kayla for recommending the Triple Pepperoni Pizza and to Anthony for making sure it was cooked to perfection and for always taking care of us. Keep it up — you’re doing it right.

Always been a fan of this place! The lemon pepper buffalo wings are always a go-to hit! It’s a wet sauce, but the wings keep the crunch! They have it figured out. And don’t forget to order an extra of their house made dill ranch, put that stuff on everything!!! Price is always good and food is great! My regular place

If you’re looking for amazing pizza and the best vibes, this is the place. The pizza was absolutely delicious — perfectly cooked crust, fresh toppings, and flavor in every bite. The heart-shaped pizza for Valentine’s Day was beyond adorable. Such a fun, thoughtful touch that made the night feel extra special. The staff was welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxed night out. And the beer and wine menu? Total bonus. A great selection that pairs perfectly with the food.

I used the app for delivery and I appreciate the way my food was packaged. My wings arrived still crispy, the lemon pepper wings were flavorful and the mango habanero wings had enough sauce. They have good ranch and one small cup came with the wings. I saw a lot of good reviews for the pizza rolls but they're ok, the outside could be crispier and there was very little pepperoni inside; the cup of marinara was good quality though! I appreciate they my ice cream arrived frozen solid and omg the brownie is soft, chocolatey, and and a little fudgy. Will definitely be eating here again.

Pizza, pizza, and pizza! Who doesn't love pizza? Man, i gotta tell you... we were greeted at the door as soon as we walked in. At that particular time, there were maybe 3 people besides the employees inside. That changed very quickly as people started flooding the restaurant. Before you knew it, there were no longer tables for others to sit at. We found out why!! A very easy menu, and you can tell it is made to be served. Fresh as they say. The ambiance is super chill and very comfortable. Table service can be a little delayed but easy to work around if you have patience. My family and i would really like to return and try more menu options soon. Food was served separately and not together, which was kind of a bummer as it was all ordered at once. Temperature was great, and the food looked presentable, which was a very quick recovery from it not being served together. We left happy and even brought some home. It was also great to see clean restrooms for both men and women. That's a big plus for me! Overall, not shabby at all. We'll return soon to make it 5 starsI'm sure! Until then, eat up my friends
