Welcome to the final episode of “One Slice Pizza Reviews.” This week, the crew headed. This week, the crew headed over to Maplefield’s in Ray Brook to try their cheese slice.

Maplefield’s is more commonly known as the gas station and convenience store between Lake Placid and Saranac Lake, but it is a signature destination for the Prep Hockey Team. Whenever the teams practiced in Saranac Lake, the buses would always make a stop at Maplefield’s for their already prepared food options.

Maplefields is a joint gas station with Sunoco and has a sandwich shop and a pizza section. Because we tried Stewarts’ pizza, we had to try Maplefield’s.

Let’s see what Charles Pigeon thought of the slice:

A 7.2 is a very respectable score, especially for a gas station.

It has been a blast making these pizza reviews, and thank you to the audiences for tuning in. Come back next year when Charles Pigeon does “One Bite Burger Reviews.”

One Slice Pizza Review: Mr. Mike’s

May 6, 2025 by Pete Moore

On this week’s edition of “One Slice Pizza Reviews,” we headed into town to review Mr. Mike’s Pizza. Mr. Mike’s is one of the most popular pizza joints in Lake Placid, and the pizza that Northwood supplies its students with after sporting events. Charles was very familiar with the pizza as he is a hockey player, and he has had it after every home game this year.

Mr. Mike’s is a big Italian restaurant that serves pizza, pasta, and wings, along with some other signature dishes.

Mr. Mike’s is a very affordable food option in Lake Placid. The small pizza that we got was only $13, and it was a decent size.

Mr. Mike’s is located at the southern end of Mirror Lake, a little bit outside of the center of town.

Let’s see what Charles thinks of the slice:

The highest score ever recorded on the channel!!!! Let’s see if Maplefield’s can top it next week in our last review.

One Slice Pizza Review: Stewart’s

May 5, 2025 by Pete Moore

In this week’s issue of One Slice Pizza Reviews the crew went to Stewarts. More known as a gas station and ice cream shop, Stewarts serves a lot more than just snacks and gas. They have hot sandwich options, hot dogs, and even pizza by the slice or the whole pie.

We had heard from some locals that Stewarts had the potential to score well with their pizza, so we had to go find out for ourselves.

The Stewarts shop we reviewed is located next to the Police department, and across the street from Wiseguys. A slice of cheese pizza at Stewarts cost us $2.54 while a pepperoni slice is a little over three dollars.

Let’s see what taste tester Charles Pigeon rated the slice:

A 6.2/10 is a very respectable score, especially for a gas station pizza. Check back in next week for the review of Bazzi’s Pizza!

One Slice Pizza Review: Main Street Pizza

April 3, 2025 by Pete Moore

On this week’s segment of “One Slice Pizza Reviews,” Pete and Charles headed downtown to Main Street Pizza to try a cheese slice.

The editors always try to get only one slice, but Main Street Pizza only sells full pizzas. So, the total cost of one small cheese pizza was $17.00.

Main Street Pizza is one of the more popular pizza joints in town, where Northwood students go after a hockey game or sporting event when teams need a late dinner.

Main Street Pizza is right next to the Mobile gas station and across the street from the speed skating oval and the Olympic Center. This is a great spot to be because everyone leaving hockey games drives by and will most likely want to try their pizza.

Let’s see what Charles has to say about his slice of cheese:

Woah… A 7?! The grease and oil on the pizza were too much to handle. There were puddles of it just sitting on top of the cheese. Nonetheless, the pizza tasted fine, and the man working inside was very nice. We wish the score had been higher, but the aftereffects of the oil were too much.

One Slice Pizza Review: Bazzi’s Pizza

March 23, 2025 by Pete Moore

On this week’s edition of “One Slice Pizza Reviews,” the editors headed over to Bazzi’s Pizza on Main Street to try out their signature cheese pizza.

Bazzi’s is one of the most popular pizza spots in town. Bazzi’s is open from 12-9 every day of the week, and they serve pizza along with appetizers such as wings and mozzarella sticks. A full-size cheese pizza costs $19.00, and one slice costs $3.00.

Bazzi’s is located right across the street from Generations and is a quick walk away from the Olympic Center to the right, and the rest of the town to the left.

Let’s see what Charles Pigeon thought of his slice:

Wow an 8.3! That’s a new high score! The bar is set high for Mr. Mikes, who will be next week!

One Slice Pizza Review: Lake Placid Pub and Brewery

March 9, 2025 by Pete Moore

The Mirror is taking on a project to review every place in Lake Placid that serves pizza, from pizza joints, restaurants, and gas stations to our own dining room. Follow along as Charles and Pete eat their way through all the pizza in Lake Placid. All of their reviews can be found here. The Mirror recognizes Dave Portnoy and One Bite Pizza as the inspiration for this series. We’re totally copying them.

The newest series in the Northwood Mirror is pizza reviews by Pete Moore and Charles Pigeon. The first pizza review was at the Lake Placid Pub.

The Lake Placid Pub and Brewery, known locally as “The Pub,” is a brewpub across the street from the public beach and not far from the center of action in the village. The Pub consists of two full floors of dining room space and a beautiful wooden bar on the second floor. It is open from 11:30 a.m. to midnight Monday through Saturday and noon to midnight on Sunday.

The Pub’s menu is very diverse, ranging from typical bare fare like wings and burgers to soup and power salads. It is safe to say anyone can find something to eat at the Pub on gameday. The pub is one of the best places to watch a game on gameday, with all the televisions and sports decor on the walls.

The Pub is a great spot to meet up with friends or family or even enjoy a meal alone. The staff were very helpful and kind and always willing to assist you.

Let’s see what taste tester Charles Pigeon had to say about the pizza:

An 8.1/10! Wow, that’s a hot start to the series. The video got cut short a bit at the end, but again, another huge thank you to the Lake Placid Pub for allowing us to review their Margherita pizza!
