Everyone loves pizza and while there are plenty of chain pizza places out there, there’s something great about a local shop that makes their own, signature pies. Whether visiting or a long-time resident, these are five of the best places to grab a slice in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Stromboli Pizza
Get free delivery when you order from Stromboli Pizza on North 17th Street. If you live within two miles of the shop and meet the $10 minimum, there’s no charge when they bring dinner to you. Check their website for regular specials to be sure you never miss a deal.
If you’re not ready to commit to a whole pizza, you can enjoy their pies by the slice. Don’t be afraid to try something different like a slice of Philly cheesesteak or chicken bacon ranch pizza.
Salvatore Ruffino’s Brick Oven Pizza
Open late, every day of the week, Salvatore Ruffino’s is always ready to fulfill those late-night cravings. Located on the corner of Allen Street and North 19th Street, they welcome walk-ins and deliver to your home. Order online or call-in when you’ve chosen from their full menu of gourmet pizzas like bruschetta and bianco, or a baked pasta dinner like manicotti. Vegetarians have lots of options like eggplant parmigiana or The Garden pizza.
Delicioso Pizza and Subs
Stop in for Neapolitan Style pizza at Delicioso Pizza and Subs on West Hamilton Street. Try their white pizza, or some pizza rolls ready to dip. Sandwiches abound with a menu full of burgers, gyros, wraps, subs, hoagies, cheesesteaks, and more. Italian food lovers have plenty of classic dishes to choose from like stromboli and baked ziti. Delicioso is a pizza place with options far beyond just pies. Finish off with a bite of traditional tiramisu.
Little John’s Pizza
On Tilghman Street, you’ll find a little green building serving up New York style pies. Little John’s Pizza makes a classic Sicilian pizza with your choice of toppings as well as specialty pies like Hawaiian and Meat Lovers. Stop in for quick pick-up or order on a smartphone with their app. Appetizers include pierogies and fried mushrooms, and, if you prefer your pizza wrapped in a pocket of dough, order a scrumptious calzone.
Biaggio’s Pizzeria and Family Restaurant
Owner Joseph Ruffino and his family have been in the business of great Italian food for many years. Biaggio’s Pizzeria, on North Cedar Crest Boulevard, is the perfect place for a family dinner. Start off with a plate of fried calamari or some spicy chicken wings. Choose a simple pizza with any number of your favorite toppings, or let the chef create a specialty, gourmet pie like the Moby Dick topped with clams, shrimp, and calamari.
If anyone in the family isn’t a pizza fan, the menu is full of options from pasta to sandwiches. End your meal with a treat from their dessert menu featuring Italian classics like canolli or a dessert pizza.
Stop by Lexus of Lehigh Valley to test drive a new vehicle, then enjoy dinner at one of these spots afterward.
