Review from David R.

This pizza place has some of the best and most unique pizza I have ever had. I have only ordered the Beckon Desire and Cream and Crimson signature pizza's, but based off these two if I ever crave a pizza I will go here. Both of the those pizza's have won awards in the past.
Aver's also has the two other signature pizza choices as well as regular pizzas that you can order. I would say the price is reasonable considering this isn't a national chain like PIzza Hut.
The service at Aver's is pretty good. I have only had one problem when I ordered over the phone and when I came to pick up the pizza they had forgotten to make the order. They made up for the mistake though by giving me the pizza at the next larger size. If I ordered an 8 inch pizza it normally takes about 15 minutes for it to be ready. -

Let me start by saying that if you like 'gourmet pizza' - Aver's is your kind of place. HOWEVER, I would argue that once you get to 'gourmet' it isn't pizza anymore. White sauce? Pesto sauce? Not pizza. Artichokes? Not pizza. Cheeses I haven't heard of before? Not pizza. I'm a purist!
Pizza should be red sauce. Tomato, people. Mozzarella cheese! And the basic ingredients (think pepperoni, sausage, green peppers, mushrooms, etc. etc. - MAYBE pineapple, but that's pushing it) - and Aver's does a pretty good job with real pizza.
Anything else may taste great to you, but it's not pizza. It's round and may look like a pizza but it isn't. BUT for those who like the 'non-pizza-pizza' Aver's is the best of the best in Bloomington. There are several different varieties - something for everyone.
Great breadsticks as well.
Aver's delivers, not a dine-in place. Though they're building one of those on the east side of town, complete with buffet. -

To date, this is my all-time favorite pizza place. Pizza, not breadsticks, mind you ;) Though the breadsticks aren't bad.
I have not ordered a "regular" pizza here (cheese, pepperoni, etc.), so I cannot attest to the taste of those. I am forever a fan of the Cream & Crimson and the Beckon Desire. Both have Gorgonzola cheese, so if you like Gorgonzola, you should try this place. I'm not sure which I like better, they are both wonderful. They have several sauce choices and some unique ingredients, so if you are looking for something a little different, it is worth a try.
I have only ordered from this location, and perhaps always will, as it is on the way into town, so when I stop by Bloomington I can grab a pizza on my way in or on my way home. I believe they also have a take-and-bake option, which can be useful. Always good service.
Drinks come in reusable plastic cups, and I always order the loganberry (red juice) just because it surprised me the first time I asked for drink options. I think they carry Coke products. Crazy Aver's Deal is great if you want to split a pizza and breadsticks meal with a friend. -

Absolutely delicious! Visited Heather's Aunt and Grandmother on Friday, and they were in the mood for some pizza and suggested Aver's. We got a pep and saus, and they got the signature cream and crimson pizza. We ate a few pieces of each of them, and they were so wonderful that the next night we actually ordered from them again! This time, we made our own creation of alredo sauce, parm cheese, and then chicken and potato. Delicious! Definitely ordering again the next time we visit.

A good pizza place, relative to the rest of the pizza places in Bloomington at least. The "Crazy Aver's Deal" is a bargain; you get pizza, breaksticks, and two drinks for about ten bucks. . . it makes a full meal for two people.
I'd recommend the BBQ chicken pizza as well as my own creation: Alfredo sauce, artichoke hearts, and bacon. YUM. -

Aver's is a classic, and consistently produces great pizza. A Chicken Masterpiece pie is truly amazing.

I've posted the following review on Google Maps before and I'm posting it again:
I live downtown on Kirkwood and my pizza came at least an hour later, about an hour and 15 minutes after I called in fact, even though I was told it would only be a 45 minutes wait.
I called Avers back to address this issue and all I was told by the "manager" was that he or "they, couldn't do anything about it", and that they usually "don't do anything" about late pizzas.
My friends and I had been regulars and even though I didn't have bad experiences like this as often, they commented that Avers had been rude towards their similar concerns various times before and have charged one of my friends' credit card even after it has been declined, causing her bank account to go into a negative, all without telling her a thing until she called about her pizza not being delivered.
Overall, whether our cases are an anomaly or not, it has been a very disappointing experience, especially since we were not compensated for a pizza that either was delivered late or made late. We have proof that's the sticker on the pizza box and we compared the time.
Not planning to support Avers any further.

I mean, I always order the same thing - I can't help it - but it's just soooo good! I never don't order a jalapeno and pineapple pizza from Aver's, but I've heard other pizzas (Cream & Crimson, for example) are also wonderful. But back to my Aver's jalapeno/pineapple pizza - it's my favorite pizza of all time. They do it just right. And then I order breadsticks with cheese and ranch sauce. Yum/fattening. Oh, and they've never screwed up my order, and the people working there are always pleasant. I need to broaden my horizons and order some of their many creative pizzas! So do you!

Don't just order a plain pizza; you'll be annoyed that it is, well, just a plain pizza.
Instead, order a specialty pie, and be amazed. Cuban Black Bean and Cream&Crimson are two of the most amazing pizzas I've ever had. -

One of the 3 best pizzaria's in Bloomington. A little pricey, but not too much so.
