About J. Burns’

A Polk County staple for over 50 years

J. Burns’ Pizza has been part of Polk County since 1965, and the pizza is the same today as it has always been: thin, crispy, and cut in squares. Every pie starts with a dough made specially for us, topped with quality ingredients and baked until the edges crisp just right.

We are a family-friendly shop through and through. We love connecting with our community and host spirit nights for local schools and churches as often as we can. Whether you are grabbing a quick sub at lunch or feeding the whole team after a game, there is a table and a square slice waiting for you.

Both gluten-free crusts are prepared at their own dedicated station, separate from the regular dough, so we can serve guests with celiac disease. When you pick a shop we copy your build, so you can paste it into your order.
