Two Brits try Detroit Pizza for the first time! 

Never realized there were so many native Detroiters watching these British dudes with me. Glad to see we’re out here representing 😂

As a Detroiter, I say THANK YOU for trying real Detroit style pizza. So many people think if you put the sauce on top it’s Detroit style! The pan is SO SO important! Love the reaction!

Can imagine Mr. Z bringing his own neopolitan pizza to this place and have at it passive aggresively as ollie continues to crack carbonara pizza jokes

Detroit style pizza is very popular in Korea, too! A restaurant called Motor City sells Detroit style pizza in Itaewon, Korea and people line up 30 minutes before it opens. I was surprised that it was very delicious when I ate it for the first time. I want to visit America someday and try the original Detroit style pizza.🍕

Looks like proper Detroit style pizza, I am so impressed to know you get to try our pizza where you live! We rarely get mentioned in pizza conversations. Henry Ford is also responsible for American backyard barbecue. His brother-in-law, Kingsford, invented the charcoal briquette to reuse all the saw dust that was produced from making cars. Ford provided small, portable grills with the purchase of a car

As someone who spent 15 years working in Detroit, I can't stress how excited I was to see both of you try this pizza. It's delicious and basically most people haven't heard of it!

As a Detroit native, I clicked on this video so fast! I’m thrilled to see my favorite Brits and my favorite pizza in the same place, but it would be even better to see them properly in Michigan sometime! ❤

As a midwesterner, Detroit style really is the hidden gem of pizza in America imo - should be much more popular than it is

As a Detroiter, seeing this was absolutely wonderful. Always good to see my hometown getting recognized 🙏🏾❤️

As someone from Detroit, you have to try Buddy’s, Hungry Howie’s, Vernor’s, Faygo and Better Made chips next! I’m sure all other Michigan viewers would agree that we actually have a lot of Detroit/ Michigan/ Midwest exclusive foods/ brands that are iconic and worth trying! ❤️

As a Detroiter this looks legit 👍🏽 Glad you guys enjoyed 😊

As a Detroit native, I'm so glad you enjoyed our hidden gem as much as we do! Please do come on over, we've got LOTS of great food. Don't miss the amazing Middle Eastern food just down the road in Dearborn, either.

Detroit native here, I LOVE that our pizza is getting more attention! It's criminal how undersold it is. You always hear about NY style or Chicago, but hardly anyone talks about our pizza- though, if I'm getting a deep dish, you better BELIEVE it's gonna be Detroit.

The chefs at these restaurants have to love these guys. Their reactions are so pure. Has to make a chef happy seeing someone react to their food with joy.

The fact Josh would willingly to donate the whole piece of bacon purely because of the look in Oliie's eyes, makes me want a friendship like theirs!!

As a Michigander, I feel so happy that they are enjoying this pizza style. Come to Detroit and try the original!

I'm truly over the moon! Having lived in Detroit my entire life I'm really delighted that you've "discovered" and love our contribution to the pizza universe, plus I'd like to give props to the London restaurant that is obviously doing a fabulous job in re-creating it for the UK. I'm absolutely drooling now, lol!

The end with Mr. Z was perfect! I grew up on Detroit style, so I'm loving that people elsewhere are finally discovering it.

I was born and raised in the greater metro Detroit area, as well as lived in Detroit proper for quite some time. We probably have one of the most diverse food scenes in the world. Just about every country and culture is represented in a 50 Sq mile area.

*As a Detroiter I approve of these pies. I was afraid you wouldn't be getting a real Detroit style pizza.*

Just loved how josh just took the bacon and gave it Ollie.... He didn't even ask. Just shows how much he actually cares

As a New Yorker, I didn't get to try Detroit pizza until I moved away. It looks heavy like a Chicago deep dish, but I was pleasantly surprised at how light and fluffy it was. If you're in the Bay Area, Golden Boy makes a pretty good Detroit style pizza.

As a Sicilian American, this was my grandma’s pizza. The Detroit flair is the sauce stripe on the top. Good Detroit pizza is tha bomb 💣

1:32 all the pieces are literally corners hahah

I love this accidental friendship with Mr. Z From mysterious Bond-villain sandwich creator to basically their Godfather. He has style, connection, knows everything and everyone, plus he has become the authority on everything pizza, so much so that they share all the bizarre and amazing pizzas they encounter. From calling him all the way from Texas about pickle pizza on a stick to delivering him the new thing they discovered, because they like him and respect his opinion so much (also, I believe Ollie wants to prove him wrong someday 🙃) This is the most wholesome friendship development I've seen in a long time and it's so nice to see!

I think my favorite thing about jolly videos like this is that they love the food so much that they want to share it and have the film crew try it too. It’s not just about Josh and Olly enjoying it. It’s for everyone to experience

As a Detroiter, it's wild to see our Pizza on here! You guys need to come here and try local pies. I recommend Loui's, Green Lantern, Grandma Bob's, or Michigan & Trumbull.

As someone that moved to MN from the east coast I always thought Detroit style wasn't as good as east coast pizza........I was so wrong. You boys know how to make an amazing pizza and now I love it. Props to Detroit.

A thing to note, if you came to Detroit to try the pizza at Buddy’s (probably the most classic place people will recommend) they use Wisconsin Brick cheese.

Being from Michigan. I love seeing Detroit get the love it deserves. Such an amazing city with some of the richest culture and history. It’s a gem.

Sicilian girl here! We call this pizza style “sfincione” and grandmas still make it 🥰

"we do bribe a few people" you gotta respect owner's brutal honesty especially on camera

Feels weird and good to see so many detroiters/Michiganders and lovers of Detroit style pizza in the comments!!! Glad it made it over to london for you to enjoy. That place looks amazing

HAHAHAHA I love that they were so determined they hauled the pizza all the way to him because they were determined to hear his thoughts on it RIGHT NOW

My heart swelled to see this! Detroit Pizza is having a moment and I love to see the well-deserved recognition.

As someone from Detroit, absolutely love seeing this. Detroit stlye pizza just hits different, so comforting. Last time I was home I ate pizza for breakfast lunch and dinner - god bless.

JOLLY never fails to make us smile. They're the best at what they do.

Detroit native here, so glad you recognize the greatness! It's so underrated, maybe one of the most underrated in the country. Super crispy cheesy crust and a fluffy as heck dough.

My mom likes to reheat the left over slices on the stovetop in a pan on low for about 10-15 minutes. It re-crisps the bottom of the slice.

Watching people eat food they've never had before, made by people who put their heart and soul into the specific style of food they make is so wholesome. Love the channel!

My mom is from Detriot but I grew up in a different state. I always called this style of pizza "home style pizza" because it was how we made it at home. I only learned that the style of pizza my mom always made us and that she had taught us to make was actually Detroit pizza when I turned 20. I still call it "home style pizza" sometimes by accident.

Michigander here, I'm so glad you got to tried Detroit style!!! Nothing can beat the crust imo

As a Michigander currently living in London, I'm excited to try this place out. If you go to Detroit, you should also have a coney dog, an olive burger, and Faygo Rock 'n' Rye pop. Plus Eminem has a restaurant called Mom's Spaghetti.

So happy to see you guys try Detroit pizza! As a native who now lives in SC I really miss it and was so jelly when I heard that amazing crunch sound! I agree you guys should do a Detroit trip, so many great Detroit foods I sorely miss. Coneys, great Jewish deli's, wonderful middle eastern food, Boneless Almond Chicken!

Im a Michigan native living over seas and I frequently visit the UK especially London. I happened upon this place on accident and funny enough a couple months before had gone to Buddys original Detroit Pizza visiting family. So I had to drag one of my friends in London here to see how legit it is. The fact they imported the blue steel pans already was a win. They didnt have the wisconsin brick cheese but was still top notch and only the sauce is a little spicier than the original. Though its definitely Detroit style. The dough was perfect, the crispy bottoms caramalized cheese edges. My friend in London definitely said was the best hes ever had. Im glad the bus I was on was diverted and that I didnt use the tube that day I passed by this place. Now every time I go to London I can get a piece of home. Thats why London is one if my favourite cities to visit. Its always full of surprises and diverse food options. So I cant reccomended this place enough. Londoners, brits and visitors that enjoy Pizza get there. Theres no other pizza like it and best Deep dish style in the world. So grateful this guy brought it to this side of Atlantic.

As a native of the Metro Detroit area, this entire episode makes my heart happy.

Oh My goodness! I'm long time fan from Detroit, and I'm so excited to see yall try our pizza! Glad you enjoyed!!! P.S. If you do come to Michigan, Buddy's Pizza is the absolute best Detroit- Style Pizza!

I woke up to the joy that JOLLY has a new video! Now, I want to see these two do a food tour through all 50 states.

I'm honestly amazed to see Detroit style done right all the way over in the UK. Most places in the US don't even get it right. Great looking pie, and so glad you guys loved it!

Wow so many Detroiters in this comment section myself included, love to see it. Love to see ppl around the world getting to know the deal, that crust is undefeated. So proud of my city

As a Michigander seeing Josh and Ollie love detroit style makes me so happy they just need to come to Michigan and try the real thing now.

I'm from Michigan, currently attending the University of Michigan, and I must say we have some incredible food especially in the metro Detroit area! Neapolitan wood fired and Detroit style are the best for sure. You guys need to come for a visit!

Being from Detroit, this brings so much joy to my heart! We've got tons of great food here in Michigan. Please visit us sometime.

This is the first time I have ever seen a pizza crust like this since many years ago, when on a very rare occasion, my Italian grandmother (in NY state) ordered from a restaurant a Sicilian pizza from a very, long-standing restaurant/pizzeria. My grandmother never ate out; she always preferred her own cooking, and rightly so. But this pizza was just as it had been for many decades, and it was really wonderful. She explained that no one still makes the base like this. I makes me happy to see somewhere in Detroit they are still doing it that way. It’s very authentic. The toppings were: a special marinara, lots of fresh, Italian seasoning with an emphasis on the basil, a little of finely grated *authentic* Parmesan, extra virgin olive oil (true olive oil) and anchovies slightly rinsed, dried, chopped and baked on top like one of the seasonings. BTW: It’s also good to see that Detroit, even after the impact of the expanding and steeply contracting economy, still has some of the best American restaurants.

Michigander here and I Love Detroit style pizza. That crust is everything. Thank you for recognizing how good it really is.

Born and raised in Detroit, it’s a shame more people don’t know about Detroit style pizza! You have to come do an extended episode in Detroit. It’s a melting pot where you will find a plethora of different foods from many different cultures and they’re all so good! Greek, Polish, Mediterranean, Mexican, etc if you want it, you will find it in Detroit! Make sure you try Faygo pop (don’t call it soda!), our microbreweries, and our apple orchards (if in season). It’s a foodie’s paradise 🤤

As someone who lives near Philly in New Jersey, I've been saying for some time that we need more Detroit style represented around here. Also, I think it's time for us to address the elephant in the room and admit that America has taken the pizza concept and created it's own...BETTER...pizza. I said what I said.

No such thing as bad pizza, I like all styles.

Since Ollie was talking about his final meal it would be fun if you two made a video about all your favorite last meals

Detroiter here....so glad you finally got to try the best pizza in the world! Now you have to come to Michigan and do a real food tour. Firstly, do Downtown Detroit's Coney Dogs at Lafayette Coney Island and Slow's Bar BQ...then go north to Frankenmuth for the Chicken and see the world's largest christmas store...you can even be really adventurous by continuing north and try the Ludefisk (we have alot of swedes and finns here) Continue further north to Mackinac Island for the world's best Fudge...maybe stop in Traverse City for the annual cherry festival for the cherry pie...then finish in the Upper Peninsula to hangout with the "Yoopers" and try a real Finnish Pasty and some Lake Superior White Fish...I guarantee you will love the experience....especially if you're here in the fall (October) with the trees changing colors....which also means you HAVE to go to a Michigan Apple Cider Mill for fresh pressed Apple Cider, Doughnuts, and all the other things like Apple Pie, carameled & candied apples, etc.....and finally, try the micro-brews and Vernor's Ginger Ale!!!

LOVE this episode! I’m an American, and I had no idea Detroit pizza was a thing! Amazing! - Looked it up, and there is a Detroit pizza place in Florida! 🎉 I’m gonna have to try it! Thanks, Jolly!

I had to rewind it a few times at a part.their accents are so proper I didn't understand why he was asking why M&Ms are so angry.ohhhh Eminem. I love their reactions☺️

I love these two guys….their rapturous expressions when they eat something for the first time that they love gives me LIFE!

I live just outside Detroit, have a very good friend who is first generation Italian. Her family was one of those southern Italian immigrants that brought this exact style of pizza to Michigan. Cheers!

before I even watch, I gotta say this is huge for us JOLLY fans in Detroit lol I’m also shocked there’s a Detroit style pizza joint in London. dope

As a Detroit native with Sicilian roots, Buddy's Pizza is the most popular in Michigan. MY FAVORITE spot in SEOUL is MOTOR CITY PIZZA, they have a few locations now. I love the JACKSON 5, it is absolutely delicious. Detroit would love to have you visit. You should try Motor City next time you are over to Korea. ...OH and get the fried mushrooms, its a classic!

Living in NJ I was unfamiliar with Detroit style because we have many of our own styles like tomato pies, but after trying it, it's easily my favorite kind of pizza

Jolly definitely needs to come to Detroit for some food tasting, you won't be disappointed, I promise! The best Detroit style pizza is at Buddy's Pizza. I live about 40 mins from Detroit and will drive downtown just for the food, it's that amazing! The soul food restaurants are to die for, and so are the Greek restaurants. Oh, and the burgers! So if/when you visit Detroit be sure to head downtown where all the good food lives. I was really surprised to see so many comments from fellow Michiganders, makes me happy. But Jolly makes me even more happy, keep up the good work boys, always looking forward to your videos! 🤗

I was born in Detroit and have lived back in suburban Detroit since I was 12 (67 now) and I think Detroit style pizza has the fabulous combination of being, both, heavy and light at the same time. 🙌🏻

Born and raised in Detroit! It would be fun to see you guys review Coney Island, White Castle, Checkers(or Rally's), Superman Ice cream and Vernors! Great review!

I can’t tell you how happy I am to see this reaction! As someone from Detroit, it’s so great to see people around the world try something unique to where I grew up. I’m so glad you enjoyed it!! ❤🍕🚙🌆

As a Michigander I’m happy to see our hidden gem is getting some recognition abroad… even a lot of Americans don’t know how good Detroit style pizza is

🤣🤣🤣 “How did Eminem grow up so angry?” You guys are the perfect team. Josh has the perfect reactions to Ollie’s off the wall observations!

I hear TREMENDOUS things about Detroit Pizza and I so need to try it so badly. It looks and sounds so great

I NEVER THOUGHT I’D SEE THE DAY!!! DETROIT STYLE PIZZA ON JOLLY!!! 🎉 ppl rave about Chicago and NY style pizza, but the crispy edges on Detroit style pizza is where it’s at

I never trust Josh's reactions, but Olly isn't afraid to say what he feels, that's the ticket

I live in western Michigan but have had Detroit style many times. Love it. There some great foods here and it would be fantastic if the Jolly team came here.

As a southern Italian, the Detroit Pizza in Commercial Street is one of my favorite pizza places in London.

American pizza and Italian pizza are forever different. Both beautifully amazing. But Italians got to get over their aggressive frustration over American pizza and how much it truly is loved. Because it is still their families/ancestors that moved here to even make it possible. So different but both equally so beautiful.

As someone from the Detroit area, I highly recommend a visit to “the D” and surrounding areas. Coney Dogs, Detroit pizza, micro-brewery’s, and the list goes on. It’s absolutely an underrated city with fantastic food. Reach out for any questions!

I love that they also let Mr. Z try the pizza they had

As a Chicagoan I can agree that Detroit style needs more love. It’s my favorite. 1) best deep dish in Chicago has some influence in pequods does the burn cheese crust. 2) favorite pizza I had in New York was a Sicilian slice at prince street which Detroit style is a form of Sicilian.

I've lived in New York, Chicago and California. Being from Detroit, I always felt I was biased. After my travels, I was right all along. Detroit style is truly the best.

I was born in Detroit in late 1948. Left in 1963 for Ohio. I had never heard of this style pizza back then, but I did not realize we were poor at the time. Mom & Dad owned our home. We never had pizza or ate out. In Ohio they make that pizza only once in a while. I'll have to try it next time. I'm 75 now.

Detroit style is the hidden gem of the 3 American styles. It's like a secret club we enjoy that if you know, you know.

I'm always nervous when I see the boys trying American staples in England because I'm always thinking "ehhh... is this REALLY legit?" but once I heard Ryan with an American accent all my fears were assuaged. (not to say a Brit can't go to Detroit, fall in love with the pizza, and bring it back, but let's just say I've had "Mexican" food in England and it is not right... at all... as I'm sure with a lot of ethnic foods in the US lol)

That looked so good! Born and raised in Detroit, I'm glad you guys liked it!

Being from Detroit, it's always good to see someone appreciating our pizza. We have a pretty good barbecue scene too.

I love seeing when y’all share it with the crew 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽 and their reactions. Just a fun human moment to eat and be happy. I get anxious so I mostly drink soup, but I love seeing the vids

So so happy that yall are trying food I grew up with…if you ever come to Detroit gotta try the Detroit style pizza from Buddy’s Pizza with their fried vegetables! Olgas, Chicken Shack, any version of Coney Island you see (probably a National’s Coney Island), etc…I actually saw this place when I was visiting London for the first time earlier this year but never got the chance to see if it was comparable to the Detroit pizza back home, glad it did not disappoint 😊

Have been a fan since 2018 since netting my now wife who is Korean. Learning the Korean culture from your videos was so helpful. Now seeing you have pizza from my hometown has made this full circle! You need to try it in Detroit though!!

As someone born in Detroit, and knowing Ollie's passion for browned cheese, I knew he'd love this. Good job!

Detroit style pizza is so underrated...and I'm a NYer saying this

Live in the Metro Detroit area and have grown up on Detroit style pizza, love that it's getting the recognition it deserves across the pond.

This makes my heart happy as a native Michigander, but also sad because I’ve relocated to New England and haven’t found a Detroit-style pizza yet! I’m glad you liked it 😊 Edit: If you go to Detroit, you’ll have to try the different local favorite pizza spots. And a coney dog while you’re it!

A few things. Being from Detroit, your Eminem comment almost made me fall out of my chair I was laughing so hard!!! And FYI, Domino's, Little Ceasars, Cottage Inn, Jett's, and Hungry Howie's are all Detroit-based companies.

I’m a New Yorker and I have to say the Detroit style slaps! It’s a class of its own.

I feel like Detroit pizzas unlock a nostalgic part of my brain that reminds me about the square school pizzas in the UK, but done with far superior ingredients - looks delicious!

I normally don't like doughy pizza, but you can't beat the caramelized crust on a Detroit Style Pizza. And yes. Ollie should never play poker. His reactions are so open, honest and genuine. Can't hide how he feels and that is the way it should be. JollyBean from Ohio here.

Great to see Detroit-style pizza get some international love! Glad you guys enjoyed it. Signed... a native Detroiter.
