Visited New Haven and was told that BAR had really great pizza -- specifically the mashed potato pizza. I wasn’t sure if I’d like it, but it turns out that I LOVED it. So good! This place is great to grab some pizza with a group. There were lots of great options on the menu.

It's a bar with a small pizza menu. The pizza is thin crust and there's four options from what I saw on the menu, and it's all delicious. A friend and I split a large which was a bit too much but somehow we finished it all.
The service was good, they didn't come and check on us which was in the end of the world. But we sort of expect that sometimes for drink refills and such.
It looks like a pretty happen place with a good bar and lots of space to eat and hang out including outside seating. Which probably wouldn't be for me with the busy road outside. But if you heard the pizza is good here, I would have to agree and I would encourage you to check it out. Probably not a good spot for kids, but for everybody else it's great.

Manager Danielle, you’ve been really unhelpful. I’d have rather you said you couldn’t help me than pretend you could then proceed NOT to after weeks of me trying to reach out for updates

I've been away for 20 years, but the first place I came when I was back in town was BAR and it was like I never left. Still the best pizza, and still a great atmosphere.

Staff was friendly, and beer selection was good.

Don't miss this spot if you are in town!

The slices of pizza were ENORMOUS. Ordered two slices unknowingly and got an equivalent of maybe 4 standard slices. Thin crispy crust. Got to sample some beers. Good service.

Mary and Brandon were super kind especially to a couple of Texas tourists trying New Haven pizza and their delicious home brewed pizza for the first time. Pizza was delicious and the beer was delightful, but the kind and friendly service put the experience over the edge! Going back to try more items next week!

Pizza was good but not outstanding, so still trying to figure out the hype on that. Had a great bar salad and good non-alcoholic drinks. A bit on the pricy side but what isn't now a days.

We attended a wedding pre-party in the back room. It was beautifully decorated with friendly service. We enjoyed the service of pizza and salad.

BAR violated my 1st amendment right. I was recording my cousin on stage before my phone got snatched out of my hand. I was man handled out and law enforcement was right outside. The police officer told me to delete the video which i didn’t. He also didn’t know the law, i have a master degree in criminal justice, the security dude left after i was talking to the police.

Awesome pizza and great atmosphere. Sometime the service can take a long time but it worth the wait.

Awesome cocktails served by attentive bartenders. Cool spot (maybe turn the tvs off though?).

As a New Yorker self proclaimed pizza expert, I approve of this pizza establishment. Not only is the pizza well worth however you justify a pizza night (calories, cost per mouths, heartburn, etc), but they have impeccable service. From host, to pick up, to bar. I've sat at bar before & got just the right amount of chat/attention I wanted to kind of zone out, but not be ignored. This review is 👏👏👏 to Brandon. Approaching a major surgery on my ankle, I really needed a good cheesey pizza as challenges finding a better apt. or home to recover became another challenge on top of feeling defeated with my one leg doing all the work apt hunting. Against better judgement, I found a clean trash liner in my car & covered my splint that couldn't get wet, MacGyver-d an umbrella in my bra strap, & crutches walked (in a heavy rain storm that started while I was already outside late August) in for my pizza!! Originally was informed placing my order over phone, a Birch Beer (my & Brandon's favorite) - also a core memory satisfying comfort food- couldn't be given to-go. I could have some by the bar while I wait for pizza to be ready. Thus, the bagged up leg & makeshift go-go-gadget umbrella. Oh, & no parking in street in front, so had to park in paid lot across street. He insisted on walking my pizza & even gave me a birch beer in a cup to go. Very sympathetic to my struggle for some comfort food & childhood favorite soda!! He went above & beyond & think that makes or breaks the experience you have with food & any service, really.
(I still prefer Long Island Branchinellis, La Piazza in Merrick, John's on Bleeker in NYC &Artichoke Basille's Pizza in Bushwick 😏) As long as I'm in New Haven, have recommened Bar to guests I cross into at my air bnb stays & family visiting from NY. 😁😁😁
