Famous Pittsburgh Pizza Chain Opens New Location

FINDLAY TOWNSHIP, PA — A Pittsburgh pizza chain is so revered that it ships its famous pies across the country. So it seems appropriate that it's now serving people who are traveling across the country.

Mineo's opened a Pittsburgh International Airport location in the airside terminal's center core on Monday. The chain made the announcement on social media and followed it up with another one on Tuesday.

"Day 2 and we’re still feeling the love What an incredible grand opening!" a Facebook post stated. "The turnout, the energy, and the nonstop pies made it a day we’ll never forget. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, shared a smile, and grabbed a pie — this is just the beginning. See you at the gate!"

Founded by Sicilian immigrant John Mineo, Mineo's Pizza House has been a staple on Murray Avenue in Squirrel Hill since 1958. Mineo's other locations are in Mt. Lebanon and Allison Park.

Mineo's has won numerous local awards and also has garnered national attention.

In 2024, The New York Times included it on a list of 15 of its reader's favorite pizza places around the world. The food website Tasting Table once named it Pennsylvania's best pizza.

Mineo's pizza is so popular that the chain has a link on its website for its pies to be shipped overnight to any place in the country.
