Trivia

This Joe's Pizza shares no relation with the pizzeria of the same name that is located in Whitesboro, NY. The Whitesboro Joe's had been in business for over a decade when the Manhattan Joe's opened.

In the 2004 film, Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker is working at Joe's Pizza as a delivery boy, but is fired due to insubordination and excessive delivery mishaps.
