Food was very good I had the chicken Caesar wrap with fries and my wife had a cheese burger. We have 2.5 yr old boys and the staff was very good with them. Only suggestion is a few more highchairs. There was another family there and they had one of the 2 highchairs. Other than that everything was great

This place has a neighborhood bar/local pub feel to it. Great thin-crust, wood-fired pizza and a nice selection of craft and mass-market beers on tap. Server was friendly and helpful.

The smoked pork sandwich is amazing! So is the truckstop burger, the pizzas (of course) and the gobbler.... so far its been a winning dinner situation all around. Great selection of local beers too. Can't wait to go back for wings. Monica was a gem and took great care of us ❤️ we will definitely be back soon.

I visited this place last night after hearing good things about it. I will never go back. Arrived an hour and 15+ mins before closing on a Sunday night. We were the only 2 people at a table and there were 3 other solo people drinking at the bar. Our drinks were served quickly and we were ready to order, so I asked about the soup of the day, she explained they sold out earlier as she walked away and it took over 30+ mins before we were able to catch her attention again to take our order because she was busy cleaning.We ordered a few apps to share. The macaroni balls and pickle spears were okay. The breading on 3 of the pickle spears were extra dark and split open and burnt around the cracks but were still mostly edible. We also had ordered arancini balls... but only 1 of the 3 balls were edible as 2 were almost black they were so overcooked and the rice was like trying to chew stones and 1 was missing 1/2 of the ball. The sauce on top was cold when it was brought out and the parmesan on top looked like it had been sitting out all day and was hard little discolored sticks. I immediately showed the waitress after we each tried a bite and she offered to get the one that was missing 1/2 the ball remade... Explaining they are battered and deep-fried so the outer layer will be crunchy. I showed her that the 1 ball was perfect... Compared the color and texture to the other 2 as it was like those 2 were maybe re-fried because they were twice as dark and rock hard. Kinda suggesting that 2 should be remade as they were so burnt they were not edible. But nothing came of it. No replacement was brought out and the cook had starting to take out the garbage... Clearly wasn't cooking anymore. So my mom and I split the 1 properly cooked ball as the other 2 had maybe 1 & 2 mouthful of edible centers (even the peas inside seemed burnt/blackened).I also quickly noticed that the same 2 songs were playing on repeat the entire time we were there. A 2nd Shania Twain song was added to the mix just before we left after the one song played 3x back to back.Was by far the worst service, atmosphere and quality food I've probably ever experienced. Had she even discounted the arancini balls ($15 for 3 balls) since there were 3/4 of the 2 burnt balls left on the plates when she took them away, I wouldn't have been posting this bad review.I wish I hadn't left my phone in the car or i would have had pictures to share.

My wife and I enjoyed our visit to Woodcraft Pizza tremendously. The staff is very friendly, cheerful, and professional, the atmosphere is very nice and welcoming, and the food is superb. We had pizza and fish & chips; both were exceptional, and reasonably-priced.Woodcraft Pizza is definitely one of Essex County's gems, and we will definitely revisit it in the future.
