I poured over Google maps in search of pizza by the slice, and boy did I hit the jackpot! This place is just what I was looking for! I ordered a slice of their Paterno's signature pizza and the price was so reasonable that I also ordered a grilled veggie sub to nibble on later and spent $15 ($20 after leaving a tip). The atmosphere was perfect! It's a large space and has a real feel, an old school feel, like on the show Cheers, not hoity-toity at all. There's a bar (with a pool table) and a dining area. The place is clean and no offensive odors, no odors at all when I walked in as soon as they opened, at 11am. Once the kitchen got cooking, pleasant food smells emminated from the kitchen, through the order window. The food is hot, fresh, made to order and delicious!! The sauce on the pizza is exactly how a pizza sauce should bee. If I lived here, I would bee trying to buy their pizza sauce by the jar. 🤭 I would give this place 10 stars, if i could.

Wife ordered a thin crust pizza and I ordered the incredible beef with hot peppers. Pizza was good and the incredible beef was awesome. Also great fries. We will be coming back soon. Highly recommend you visit this establishment. Won't disappoint

A great local place! They have all the standards on draft Hamm's, Yuengling, etc and at least one IPA. My favorite thing to get here is the cheese fries!

The wife and I ordered two Incredible Italian Beef's and two small well done fries. I drove there in my 1989 Buick Electra Park Avenue. Went in picked up our order and came back out to a flat right rear tire. Had a warm/cold bag in my trunk and walked the 2 miles home. The beef & fries were still great!! Highly recommend!!
