This year's fest was held over the weekend in Ankeny. Vendors could enter into multiple categories to be considered for titles and awards including; Best of the Fest and Best Pizza-Like Creation.

Also, there were plenty of events for the public, including a kid's pizza dough tossing contest and a pizza box folding contest. One Cedar Falls eatery won big at this festival for the second time and continues to carry a pretty prestigious pizza title.

At this year's festival, Chad's Pizza a Cedar Falls staple was named Best of the Fest. Located at 909 W 23rd Street in Cedar Falls, Chad's is open seven days a week. This is the very same award that the restaurant staff won last year.

There are plenty of other restaurants to check out in the Cedar Falls area, especially in the historic downtown area. Several restaurants have opened in Downtown Cedar Falls over the past year and a half.

Some of the other restaurants that have opened up around the Cedar Valley include Carter House which is open right next to the historic Black Hawk Hotel.

LOOK: Best Beers From Every State

To find the best beer in each state and Washington D.C., Stacker analyzed January 2020 data from BeerAdvocate, a website that gathers user scores for beer in real-time. BeerAdvocate makes its determinations by compiling consumer ratings for all 50 states and Washington D.C. and applying a weighted rank to each. The weighted rank pulls the beer toward the list's average based on the number of ratings it has and aims to allow lesser-known beers to increase in rank. Only beers with at least 10 rankings to be considered; we took it a step further to only include beers with at least 100 user rankings in our gallery.
