The Foodie Episode: The Best Downtown Pizza, a New Farm Stop and BBQ Delivery

This week, The Montclair Pod goes deep on all things food. First up, the pizza crawl. We hit five of Montclair’s most talked-about pizza spots, all within walking distance of downtown Bloomfield Avenue. Along the way, we debate what makes a true Jersey slice, swap pronunciation tips and crown a surprise winner.

Stops include:

• My Little Pizza Heaven – Food truck nostalgia and Jersey-style pride
• Luigino Parmigiana – A gourmet lamb flatbread that sparks debate
• Ah’ Pizz – A rustic pie with big flavor
• Teglia Pizza Bar – Thick sourdough squares
• Leone’s – A buffalo chicken slice with hot honey and old-school vibes

Also in this episode:

• Ironbound Farm Market at Lackawanna Plaza Charles Rosen, the visionary behind Ironbound Farm, talks about the market’s bold mission to bring regenerative agriculture and economic equity to Montclair through a revolutionary “farm stop” model. Bonus: no pesticides, no middlemen, and some pretty incredible cider apples.
• Pendragon's Smokehouse BBQ (Delivery Only) Co-owner Charlie Holbech shares how he’s building a hyperlocal barbecue business in Montclair—with no apps, no shortcuts, and recipes rooted in community. Plus: last-minute tips for hosting a Juneteenth cookout, including how to make smoky chicken thighs without a smoker.
