==Trivia==
==== Jungle Shapes ====
{{TriviaNote}}
The first room within the jungle section. A short hallway with a Forknight and three Cheeseslimes stuck between two Breakable Blocks. The second Toppin is found overhead up a [[Ladder]], requiring no effort to be obtained. To the right of the Toppin is a [[Fake Wall]] leading to a door allowing access to the third secret room, "Not So Much a Secret". It's entered from "Guest Room" to the right through a Box of Pizzas, and a Metal Block is found to the left blocking the entrance to "Where is the Reception?". During Pizza Time, the player enters to the left from "Daring Escape" through a Box of Pizzas previously blocked by John Blocks.
*As the selection of playable levels expanded over the course of game's development, John Gutter became the second to be the introductory level of a demo release. The first was [[Oregano Desert]].

*Since the assets of the level were designed before [[Pillar John]]'s current design, the Pillar John-like creatures are noticeably rounder and have brow ridges instead of eyebrows.
==== Where is the Reception? ====
A short hallway with a Forknight and Cheeseslime along with some Breakable Blocks. The third Toppin is found to the left on a block of ground, requiring little effort to be obtained. To the right is a Fake Wall within an indent in the ceiling leading to a Box of Pizzas only accessibly via a Super Jump allowing access to the fourth secret room, "Don't Forget Your Moves!". It's entered from Jungle Shapes to the right, and the entrance to "Super Slump" is found to the right. During Pizza Time, two Mini Johns spawn and John Blocks force the player to enter a previously inaccessible Box of Pizzas near the left that leads to "Daring Escape".

==== Super Slump ====
A relatively longer hallway with three Forknights and a Pizza Boy with some Breakable Blocks. It has several pillars with Ladders that must be jumped across before leading to a sloped room encouraging the player to use the Ball transformation. A single large Pizza Block is found in a corner. Prior to the small sloped room is a Breakable Block in the ceiling that can be broken by a Wall Dash or Super Jump leading to a Box of Pizzas allowing access to the fifth secret room, "Eating a Big Pizza Alone". It's entered from "Where is the Reception?" to the right, and the entrance to "A City Now?" is found to the left through a Box of Pizzas. During Pizza Time, two Mini Johns spawn and a small shortcut underneath is opened requiring the player to break through a Metal Block.

==== A City Now? ====
The first room within the city section. Quite a large room with two Cheeseslimes, four Forknights, and two newly-introduced Swedish Monkeys. Banana Peels are found all over the ground that may slip the player down to the bottom, which is lined with Teleporter Pizzas leading to a Teleporter Machine to the left, near the entrance. A Complete Pizza can be found over the first Forknight. The fourth Toppin is found in the middle on a platform that can be easily accessed by Wall Dashing or slipping on a Banana Peel. It's entered from "Super Slump" to the left through a Box of Pizzas, and the entrance to "Sweden Heaven" is found to the right. During Pizza Time, some [[Pizza Box#Enemy Spawner|Enemy Spawners]] spawning Swedish Monkeys drop from above and all pits are blocked.

==== Sweden Heaven ====
A slightly vertical room full of Breakable Blocks with two Forknights and a Swedish Monkey. The fifth and final Toppin is found right next the Swedish Monkey in the open, requiring no effort to be obtained. To the right is a small alcove with four Outlets and a Fake Wall hinted by an indent leading to the sixth and final secret room, "Hamster Tube". To the left is a large Breakable Block within an indent hinting towards a Fake Wall leading to a door allowing access to the Tower Secret Treasure in "Placeholder Treasure Name". It's entered from "A City Now?" to the left, and the entrance to "World of John" is found to the right. During Pizza Time, some Enemy Spawners spawning Swedish Monkeys drop from above and most pits are blocked.

==== World of John ====
A small hallway with three Cheeseslimes leading to a Metal Block guarding Pillar John, triggering Pizza Time. It's entered from "Sweden Heaven" to the left.

==== Daring Escape ====
A small vertical room with two Mini Johns, a Swedish Monkey, and a Forknight. A Pizza Block and Giant Pizza are found in the air. It's entered from "Where is the Reception?" at the top through a Box of Pizzas only accessible during Pizza Time, and an entrance to "Jungle Shapes" is found at the bottom.

=== Secret Rooms + Treasure ===

==== Big Steps ====
A small big-stepped hallway with four Cheeseslimes. A Giant Pizza is found at at its end. It's entered from "Checkered Hallway" at the bottom through a door.

==== Sorry! ====
A small hallway with a Banana Peel encouraging the player to slip through five Cheeseslimes. It's entered from "Guest Room" to the left through a door only accessible during Pizza Time.

==== Not So Much a Secret ====
A small room with three large Pizza Blocks. It's entered from "Jungle Shapes" at the bottom through a door.

==== Don't Forget Your Moves! ====
A small room with four large Pizza Blocks at its bottom. It's entered from "Where is the Reception?" in the middle through a Box of Pizzas.

==== Eating a Big Pizza Alone ====
A small room with a single Giant Pizza. It's entered from "Super Slump" to the left through a Box of Pizzas.

==== Hamster Tube ====
A narrow hallway with loads of Pizza Blocks that twists around. It's entered from "Sweden Heaven" to the right.

==== Placeholder Treasure Name ====
The room containing the Tower Secret Treasure of Entrance. It's entered from "Sweden Heaven" to the left through a door.

== Trivia ==
* Unlike every other level, Entrance has multiple main themes that change according to what character enters it. If the player enters as [[Peppino]], Unearthly Blues will play, but if the player enters as [[The Noise]], The Noise's Jam-Packed Radical Anthem will play.
* As the selection of playable levels expanded over the course of Pizza Tower's development, Entrance became the third to be the introductory level of a demo release. The first was [[Oregano Desert]] and the second was [[Pizzascape]].
* The long Pillar John seen in the first few rooms changes appearance during Pizza Time. It gains a more angry look and opens its eyes, revealing yellow-ring shaped pupils, like those of the regular Pillar John.
* Entrance used to be a tutorial level, ending before "A City Now?".
