Bill's Pizza Factory

This week our adventures take us to Bill’s Pizza Factory in Battle Creek.  The building is a little hard to find, but in my opinion is worth a visit.  This establishment also had a Bill’s Hot Dog Factory inside, that was open at different hours.  The establishment is clean, and open.  The waitress was friendly, but it should be noted that you get your own refills, so there should not be any complaints about waiting too long for refills.  We are fat and like to eat, but are not lazy.  Service 3 Stars (There was not much to rate her on)

I ordered a medium Rajin Cajun Pizza which had Spicy Cajun Sauce, Onions, Jalapenos, Banana Peppers, Green Peppers with Chicken and Cheese Blend.  I split it with FBB for half of his Italian sausage stromboli (which was their version of a calzone).  Both were very good, but I enjoyed the pizza more.  It had great spice, and excellent flavor.  The jalapeños were not over-powering but simply added to the layers of flavor.  The stromboli was good and had a good mixture of meat, onions and peppers.  I would have liked the stromboli better had it been hot (temperature), but it was simply warm which took away from the overall flavor.  It was good food, and I would definitely recommend people at least trying it.  Overall 3 stars

We set out to Bills Pizza Factory out by the airport.  Upon entering the establishment you immediately notice a clean and very cool motif.  They had street signs with all the local city’s names on them.  The floor was painted to look like a parking lot and in true Battle Creek fashion the represented the city with car, hot air balloon and plane décor.
The menu at this particular establishment contained items ranging from Pizza to hot dogs.  They also carried grinder type sandwiches and calzones.  On this particular day I tried RAGIN CAJUN PIZZA: Spicy Cajun Sauce, Onions, Jalapenos, Banana Peppers, Green Peppers with Chicken or Spicy Sausage and Cheese Blend; Medium $12.99;   Large $14.99;   Ex-Large $16.99 and the Italian sausage Calzone.  Both of these items were served in large portions.  The pizza was well flavored and when they say spicy they mean it.  The spiciness of the pizza came from the jalapeños that were full of seeds, as we all know that is where the jalapeños get their bite. This would definitely be the item to get if you are having sinus issues on that particular day.  As for the calzone bring your appetite because it is large like I had mentioned and it comes loaded.  The crust was good but nothing special but overall they do a good job at preparing this item.  The drinks were self serve, which eliminated the issue of having your drink go empty.
It should be noted that service was iffy.  It did take a long time to get our food so allow your self at minimum of an hour.  There was only one server that day and she was also cashing people out.  So service does not score that well.
Overall:  Good place for lunch at a decent price.     Food = 3 stars        Service = 2

Bill’s Pizza Factory located across the street from Kellogg Airport.  Upon arrival, we were greeted by friendly staff and were directed to takes seats where ever we liked.  Service was prompt in taking our orders and getting our orders to the table however the fountain drinks were self serve.  The décor was local area street signs of towns near by and was done tastefully.  The club grinder I ordered was plentiful in size but of average flavor. The detractor to my meal was that my grinder was not warmed all the way through.  Service 2.5 stars.  Food  2.5 stars.
