How much pizza?

For 15 four year olds.  It's a birthday party from 12 - 2.  I am also serving fruit and chips.  I figure the parent's will want to eat as well.  (I did a search on this topic I swear but people told the girl 8 pizzas and that seems like A TON!)

How many inches are each pizza?

How thick is the crust?

I wouldn't think 8 would be too much if you are feeding parents too.

What, like 1 slice per kid and 2 per adult?  However many pizzas that would be.

I have no idea?  12 inch?  Papa John's large and thin crust I guess.

When I order for work events, we do 2.5 slices pp. I would use that for the adults and like 1.5 per kid.

All the places here do 1/2 slices for the kiddos.  We had 15 kids plus parents and also did 8 pizzas. We had so much pizza left. People don't eat as much at parties as they would if it were dinner.

I'd do one slice per person plus a couple extra and assume both parents attend. 8 slices per pie, 6 pies would be 48 slices for 45 people.

So six. Maybe seven bc I always over-order.

I use that for work all the time and we never seem to have too much in the way of leftovers. 

I cannot believe this is a thing. You really can do almost anything on the Internet!

I would go to Costco. They have pretty large pies for under $10.

Thank you! This is good advice. I think I will go ahead and do 8 because my hus is pretty much a garbage disposal and he'll eat the leftovers.
