Picture this: it is Friday evening. You have had a long week. All you want is a great pizza and a cold beer, delivered to your couch without putting on shoes. You open a delivery app, order a pizza, and then realize — they do not deliver beer. So now you need a second app, a second delivery, a second wait time, and a second delivery fee. By the time everything arrives, you have spent $20 in fees and tips on two separate orders and your pizza has been sitting on the counter getting cold while you waited for the beer.
Or you could just order from The Pizza Dude, where we deliver pizza, wings, pasta, and beer and wine all in one order, one delivery, one trip to your door.
Why We Deliver Beer and Wine
The answer is simple: pizza tastes better with a drink, and our customers should not have to make two separate orders to have a complete meal. We have been delivering beer and wine with pizza in Dallas for years, and it remains one of the things our customers appreciate most about ordering from us.
Most pizzerias in Dallas and North Texas do not offer alcohol delivery. Even among the ones that sell beer and wine in the restaurant, very few extend that to delivery orders. The licensing requirements, liability considerations, and operational logistics make it complicated enough that most places do not bother. We do, because we believe the complete at-home pizza experience should include the option to have a cold drink delivered with your meal.
How It Works
Ordering beer or wine from The Pizza Dude is straightforward:
- Add beer or wine to your order when you order online or by phone. Our selection includes popular domestic and craft beers as well as red and white wines. Check our online menu for the current selection.
- Place your order as usual. There is no separate process or additional delivery fee for including alcohol with your food order.
- Show your ID at delivery. Texas law requires that anyone receiving an alcohol delivery must be 21 years or older and present a valid government-issued photo ID. Our driver will check your ID before handing over the alcohol. This is a legal requirement, not a suggestion — no ID, no alcohol delivery.
That is it. No separate app, no second delivery, no extra wait. Your pizza, wings, and drinks arrive together, hot and cold respectively.
The Best Beer and Pizza Pairings
Pizza and beer is a classic combination, but certain pairings bring out the best in both. Here are our recommendations based on years of feeding Dallas and hearing what our customers love:
For Pepperoni and Meat Pizzas
A crisp lager or pale ale is the perfect match. The carbonation cuts through the richness of the cheese and cured meats, cleaning your palate between bites. If you prefer something with more character, an IPA stands up well to the bold flavors of our pepperoni and sausage.
For Veggie and Margherita Pizzas
A wheat beer or lighter pale ale complements vegetable toppings without overpowering them. The subtle fruit and spice notes in a wheat beer pair particularly well with fresh tomato sauce and basil.
For BBQ Chicken and Sweet-Sauce Pizzas
An amber ale or brown ale matches the sweetness of BBQ sauce beautifully. The malty, caramel notes in these beers create a harmony with the sweet-savory profile of BBQ chicken pizza.
For Spicy Pizzas and Hot Wings
When you are going heavy on the heat with jalapenos, hot sauce, or our spicier wing flavors, reach for a lighter beer. A lager or pilsner provides refreshing contrast to the spice without adding more intensity. This is not the time for a double IPA.
Wine and Pizza: An Underrated Combination
Beer gets most of the attention when it comes to pizza pairings, but wine and pizza is a combination that has been working in Italy for centuries. Here is how to match them:
- Red wine with red sauce pizzas: A medium-bodied red wine pairs beautifully with tomato-based pizzas. The acidity in the wine mirrors the acidity in the tomato sauce, creating a harmonious combination. Our classic pepperoni and specialty pizzas with red sauce are excellent with a glass of red.
- White wine with white sauce and veggie pizzas: A crisp white wine is perfect alongside lighter pizza options. The brightness of the wine complements the creaminess of white sauce and the freshness of vegetable toppings.
- Rose with everything: If you are not sure what to pick, rose is the universal pizza wine. It has enough body to stand up to meats and cheese, but enough freshness to work with lighter options too.
Perfect Occasions for Pizza and Beer & Wine Delivery
Our customers order beer and wine delivery for all kinds of occasions. Here are some of the most popular:
Friday Night In: The most common scenario. It has been a long week, nobody wants to cook, and nobody wants to go out. Pizza plus beer or wine delivered to the door is the ultimate unwinding move.
Game Day: Whether it is the Cowboys, Mavericks, Stars, Rangers, or FC Dallas, game day at home is better with pizza, wings in 13 flavors, and cold beer. Order enough for the whole crew — our 50-piece wing tray and a few large pizzas covers most watch parties.
Date Night In: A specialty pizza, a bottle of wine, and a movie on the couch is a completely legitimate date night. Sometimes the best evenings are the ones where you do not have to get dressed up and fight for a restaurant reservation.
Hotel Stays: If you are visiting the Dallas-Addison area and staying at a hotel, our delivery is a lifesaver. Skip the overpriced hotel restaurant and the mediocre room service. We deliver real, handmade pizza and beer or wine to hotels throughout our delivery area. Just provide your room number in the delivery notes.
House Parties and Gatherings: Hosting friends or family? Pizza is the easiest party food to order, and having the beer and wine arrive with it eliminates one more errand from your to-do list.
One of the Only Pizzerias in Dallas That Does This
We mention this a lot because it genuinely is rare. Do a search for pizza delivery with beer in Dallas and you will find that the vast majority of pizzerias simply do not offer it. The big chains do not do it. Most local shops do not do it. Even many delivery apps limit alcohol delivery to liquor stores, not restaurants.
The Pizza Dude is one of the only pizza delivery restaurants in the Dallas, Addison, and North Dallas area that will bring you a complete meal — pizza, wings, sides, dessert, and your choice of beer or wine — all in a single delivery. It is one of the many small things that set us apart from the competition, and it is one of the reasons our customers stay loyal.
