Two years ago, a revered New York City tradition, the $1 cheese pizza slice giveaway, was abolished. Fortunately, Seamless, the delivery service noted for listing a wide selection of Big Apple eateries and for providing good deals at said establishments, is reintroducing the custom for a short time. From now until May 20, you can order a slice of famous New York City-made cheese pizza for just a buck from participating restaurants when ordering on the Seamless forum.
A Cultural Staple Returns
This $1 institution has benefited many New Yorkers who desired a quick and cheap lunch, a late-night snack, or a simple yet satisfying dinner option, a choice that always existed. The hot, fast, and pleasing edible can be enjoyed anywhere without a fork, plate, or table. The simple joy only required folding the slice in half and chowing down.
“The $1 slice is more than just pizza, it’s part of the city’s DNA,” said Howard Migdal, the CEO of GrubHub, Seamless’s parent company. “As a company born in New York City, we know what this slice means to people. It’s about culture, convenience, and that authentic New York City flavor. Simply put, it’s how New York eats. We’re proud to bring it back and celebrate the food culture that makes the city unlike anywhere else.”

“I’ve watched this city change over the years, but nothing beats that look on someone’s face when they hold a hot $1 cheese slice and take that first bite, it never changes,” said the 2 Bros. Pizza Management Team, who have proudly served New Yorkers for more than two decades. “Teaming up with Seamless gives us a chance to celebrate the $1 cheese slice and introduce a whole new generation to what makes New York pizza so special.”
