I grew up in Pineville, so we were BJs all the way...but now there are choices. Is there any appreciable difference?

Does either offer better non-pizza options, like chicken or cheesy bread?

Getting one of these for lunch since I’ve craving it for a while...which one?

Are they the same? Probably rather support BJs if so.

ETA: Johnny’s has boneless wings, so that probably sways it for the no pizza eaters.

Also grew up in Pineville. BJ's Full House all the way.

Johnny's is good too and as others have said Wildwood is better than both, but there's that nostalgic taste that if you don't feel like driving across the river you'll be happy with.

Got a pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, and black olive from Johnny’s. It was as expected.

I’m sure Wildwood is better. I’ll have to try it.

Johnny’s cheese sticks are so good dipped in pizza sauce.

Johnny’s you have to ask for well baked for me in Alexandria or it’s not crispy enough. And you have to get the fake nacho cheese sauce

I’m not that much of a fan of bj’s sauce.

The cheese sticks with nacho sauce is the best food in the house at Johnny’s. It will change your whole day.

When they had lunch buffets, bjs in pineville had hot wings on the buffet. That was a game changer for me.

BJ's over Johnnys...

Wildwood & Jim Deggy's are both better.

Matter of fact, I would argue that Wildwood is as good as any pizza I've had. When it's on point, it's very very good.

In Ellic, BJ's is WAY better than Johnny's. Our Johnny's may actually be the second worse pizza in town.

Everynow and then you get a perfect alex Johnny’s pizza but it’s so inconsistent.... I do pepperoni, hamburger, extra cheese but request well baked. Otherwise crust is too soft. Also sometimes they have more a cracker crust instead of the traditional sourdough crust

No more than other sit down pizza places. It's certainly not on the same scale as Domino's or Pizza Hut though.



The Full House and Peggy's Delight are legit.

Bjs between these two choices.

Jim deggys is the best in town IMO.
And their beer is unbelievably cold.
