Hands down our favorite spot for pizza in all of Somerville or Cambridge! Highly recommend the Old Country or Bacon Cheeseburger options.

The ingredients are insanely high quality and the staff is kind and attentive. If you have not given City Slicker a try, please do yourself a favor and give it a go!
November 2025
Was looking for a place to eat when I was in the area, and since this cafe popped up so I gave it a shot. Staff were very nice, and there was a LARGE selection of American-style foods to order. My sandwich and fries were very fresh, and made for a great lunch.
It may not look like much from the outside, but the food inside is what you're after.

The pizza here is so good. They take the cheese all the way to the edge and the bottom is nice and crispy. It’s a big hit every time I get it for parties. A few of my friends have made it their go to spot as well after I introduced them to the pizza.

I always get it with roasted potato and caramelized onions. Highly recommend!
