After more than six weeks and 100,000 votes, Northern Indiana has finally found its best Pizza. The voting finally came to an end last night at midnight. The Wooden Peel of Marshall County was voted the best pizza in Northern Indiana.

The Wooden Peel beat out The Café at the Bowling Alley in a heated battle to claim the title. The Café at the Bowling fought valiantly but just fell short, with only 34 votes separating the two restaurants.

The Northern Indiana Pizza Wars kicked off in May with over 50 of the top pizza restaurants across the region. The Wooden Peel with its famous thin and crispy crust was up to the challenge of this year’s competition. Hailing from the small town of Bremen.

Northern Indiana Pizza Wars is a joint initiative of the Northern Indiana Tourism Development Commission and its member convention and visitors bureaus in Porter, LaPorte, St. Joseph, Marshall, Kosciusko, Elkhart and LaGrange counties.

NITDC is the leading regional economic development authority focusing on sustainable tourism through effective partnerships.
