The Best Pizza in Town!
Fresh. Hot. Delicious.
Our Story
In 2019, Jim was doing what he does best—helping someone stranded on the side of the road—when he came across a small space just down the road from the church his family loves. That moment sparked the idea for AJ’s Pizza. With years of pizza-making experience back east and after much prayer and consideration, AJ’s was born.
What started as a simple takeout spot quickly became a Blanchester favorite. By June, AJ’s expanded to offer dine-in service and has grown into a welcoming gathering place for families, friends, and neighbors.
While Jim and Annette can still be seen around the restaurant, AJ’s is now operated by a new family who shares their passion for great food and community. The same beloved recipes—like our fresh-made pizzas, hoagies, wings, and Nettie’s famous homemade peanut butter pie—are still at the heart of everything we serve. Plus, we’re adding new dishes and expanding service hours to serve you even better.
Our mission has never just been about pizza. Inspired by Matthew 5:14—“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.”—AJ’s is about bringing light and connection to the Blanchester community.
Stop in for a great meal, meet the team, and feel right at home. Whether you’re a regular or a first-time guest, you’ll always be treated like family at AJ’s Pizza.
