Chicken Never Sleeps had a balanced tomato-and-garlic flavor with a gentle kick, and its crust was especially crisp yet moist. Verdict: a worthwhile stop for pizza and beer in a more unusual setting. ## Good to know - **Ordering**: Order at the kiosk - **Cooking wait**: Cooking begins when ordered; about 10–20 minutes - **Dough**: House-made dough reportedly cold-fermented for over 36 hours - **Amenities**: Charging, water, and tissues available at the self-service bar - **Ordered menu**: Chicken Never Sleeps *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* ## A worldly pizza space waiting downstairs This is a good pick if you want a place that has the pizza, the interior, and the mood all covered. The moment you head down into the basement, it feels a little like you have arrived abroad. ![Space leading to the basement restaurant entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-01-1mqpx-900.webp) ![Basement pizza restaurant with a worldly atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-02-uwz97-900.webp) ![Pizza restaurant space found downstairs](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-03-36hy8-900.webp) ![Small sign and path to the basement restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-04-38ym7-900.webp) Follow the small sign down the stairs and an unexpectedly spacious spot opens up, which is pretty satisfying. If you are looking for pizza around Songridan-gil, Pizza Never Sleeps Songridan-gil Branch is such a fun option largely because of the interior. From the overall mood to the decor, haha, there is really nothing more to ask for. It is a pizza place, but the space itself has such a distinct personality that it feels like an attraction in its own right. ![Distinctive interior of the pizza restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-05-1ayae-1200.webp) ![Restaurant space that feels like an attraction](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-06-slazv-900.webp) Honestly, when you consider what this interior must have cost, the pizza almost feels really cheap. It is great for a date, and I think even parents visiting from out of town would get a kick out of this unusual atmosphere. ![Restaurant atmosphere suited to a date](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-07-1kbyy-900.webp) ## Using the kiosk and self-service bar The restaurant is so large that calling over a staff member used to be a little inconvenient, but there is now a kiosk, making ordering easier. It may have lost just a tiny bit of its atmosphere, but the convenience has definitely improved. ![Kiosk ordering area inside the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-08-bl8ax-900.webp) ![Convenient kiosk ordering setup](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-09-5fnda-900.webp) You can charge your devices at the self-service bar and pick up water, tissues, and so on. ![Self-service bar for water and tissues](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-10-16g2d-900.webp) ![Self-service bar with charging and water](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-11-jw72f-900.webp) Since cooking starts as soon as you order, keep in mind that you may wait around 10 to 20 minutes. ![Pizza menu cooked after ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-12-1a28d-900.webp) You can order half-and-half, and there are more pizzas with surprisingly wild-looking toppings and combinations than you might expect. Like the fries pizza: carbs plus carbs, wow. ![Pizza menu with varied combinations](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-13-14o34-900.webp) There is a good range of draft beers, and overall they seem well matched to pizza. If you are thinking value for money, I would personally recommend Red Rock. Today, I ordered Chicken Never Sleeps. ![Ordered Chicken Never Sleeps pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-14-1w1a8-900.webp) ## Chicken Never Sleeps and its crisp, moist crust If you ask for more side dishes or sauces, they will bring them over, so just eat comfortably.. ![Pizza made with cold-fermented house-made dough](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-15-wkvb8-900.webp) *Pizza Never Sleeps reportedly uses house-made dough cold-fermented for over 36 hours, and begins cooking immediately once an order comes in. It is baked in a high-temperature oven to keep the outside crisp and the inside moist.* ![Chicken Never Sleeps pizza and accompaniments](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-16-1m09w-900.webp) Once you try it, the crust has this loud crunch while the pizza itself stays moist. Even the edge does not feel dried out and rock-hard; it still has just the right amount of chew. Honestly, of all the pizzas I have had at Pizza Never Sleeps, this had the crust doneness I liked best. I really loved that the moisture and oil from the toppings did not soak into the crust. ![Crisply baked chicken pizza crust](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-17-1n6j6-900.webp) You can probably tell from the photo, but that crackly crust makes the whole pizza-eating experience feel fresh. ![A slice of pizza with Tabasco](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-18-16rcz-900.webp) *If you want something a little more intense, adding Tabasco is fine. It adds heat, but Tabasco's distinctive acidity also takes the flavor in another direction.* When I had the minari-samgyeop pizza before, it personally felt a little greasy, but Chicken Never Sleeps felt much better balanced overall. The tomato acidity and spice, plus the fragrance of garlic, strike a nice balance between the chicken and crust. ![Chicken pizza with sour kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-19-m24ss-900.webp) *Why does sour kimchi go with pizza, haha?* The tomato sauce on Chicken Never Sleeps is quite memorable. It has a lightly spicy edge overall, so the pizza does not become tiring even as you keep eating. The garlic adds another layer of flavor, and as you eat, it almost has a slightly Korean-food feel? It also feels as if hot sauce has already been subtly drizzled over the whole pizza. ![Chicken pizza with tomato sauce and garlic flavor](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-20-1mao2-900.webp) And the crust ends are quietly important when you eat pizza. Here, aioli and cheese sauce are served separately, so they are great for dipping the edges. They are fine on their own, but with sauce, you can enjoy every last bite. ![Pizza crust edge with aioli and cheese sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-21-3js2s-900.webp) I tend to prefer the aioli a little more. ![Aioli sauce served with pizza](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-22-iqls6-900.webp) The pizza boxes here are also very cute, so if you get takeout, they pack everything up neatly. ![Pizza box for takeout](https://img.superchart.com/images/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust-23-1fmaw-900.webp) ## Pizza and beer on Songridan-gil Overall, Pizza Never Sleeps Songridan-gil Branch was not simply a place to visit for the pizza alone; it was fun to enjoy the atmosphere, pizza, and beer all at once. Chicken Never Sleeps in particular did not get as tiring as expected, with tomato and garlic flavor plus a subtle spiciness that was almost gochujang-like, and I also loved the crisp yet moist texture of the crust. If you want a casual pizza-and-beer date around Songridan-gil, or are looking for a pizza restaurant with a slightly different atmosphere, it is worth a visit at least once. ## Where it is - Pizza Never Sleeps Songridan-gil Branch (피자네버슬립스 송리단길점) - 6 Baekjegobun-ro 45-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 송파구 백제고분로45길 6 - 37.5092269, 127.1108844 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%94%BC%EC%9E%90%EB%84%A4%EB%B2%84%EC%8A%AC%EB%A6%BD%EC%8A%A4%20%EC%86%A1%EB%A6%AC%EB%8B%A8%EA%B8%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.5092269,127.1108844,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@paper-placemat/songridan-gil-chicken-pizza-crust/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
