Dave Portnoy Was Spotted at 3 Hudson Valley Pizzerias
Dave Portnoy Goes on a Pizza Tour in The Hudson Valley
The weekend of September 26th, 2026, was a wet one across the Hudson Valley as we were hammered with a nor'easter.
One may say that a nor'easter is perfect pizza weather. It looks like Dave Portnoy had the right idea and stopped at a few Dutchess County pizzerias.
We first saw this post from Hudson & Packard in Poughkeepsie:
The team at Hudson & Packard wrote: "Just a normal Saturday at H&P…👀 Thanks for stopping by, Dave! Now we wait."
Shortly after that photos, we saw ANOTHER local spot sharing a Portnoy encounter: Pipinellis Pizza:

Portnoy was then seen at the newest pizzeria in Fishkill Mommò Pizza Napoletana:
These visits weren't just because the Barstool founder and president was hungry, he was doing it all for his One Bite Pizza reviews.

What Did Dave Portnoy Rate the Dutchess County Pizzerias?
As of Monday September 28th, 2026, Dave Portnoy and Barstool have not released their ratings for the 3 Dutchess County pizzerias they visited.
With that being said, we'll make sure to share the in-depth reviews as soon as their released.
In the meantime, take a look at all of the Hudson Valley and Upstate, New York pizza spots Portnoy has visited and rated below.
My favorite One Bite review actually isn't a pizza review, it's a dessert review after a slice or 2 at DeFazio's Pizza in Troy, New York.
