— Patrick C.
“Gus Franco’s Pizza, Lower Burrell.”
— Debbie B.
“The white pie with greens and Calabrian cream at Pizzeria Beddia in Philly was to die for. It was worth driving two hours, then another 20 minutes looking for parking!”
— Brad Harris, Hazleton
“Pizzeria Luca in Lancaster.”
— Cat K.

— Lori. H
“Nino’s in Lititz.”
— Newell Embley
“Any of the double-crust white pies at Arcaro & Genell in Old Forge.”
— Joe, Avoca
“Jioio’s Restaurant in Latrobe. Best white pizza.”
— Cathy Z.
“The best pizza I ate last year was a Fig & Pig at Cosmo’s Pizza in Corolla, North Carolina while vacationing in the Outer Banks. Instead of tomato sauce, it uses fig preserves. The “pig” part of it was pieces of capicola ham. Crumbled feta cheese was used with shredded mozzarella (maybe a little Parmesan, too) on top. I made one for New Year’s Eve and added chopped arugula and a balsamic/honey glaze right after it came out of the oven. It was a great way to end the year.”
— Doug
“Frank’s Pizza in Bartonsville.”
— Alan Peters
“Sausage and pineapple with extra sauce at Massimo’s in Blandon.”
— Curtis B.
“I ate a lot of good pizza at Antica Napoli in Gettysburg last year. But honestly, if all they made was their plain Sicilian cheese pizza I’d keep coming back for more!”
— Robert P.
“Delorenzo’s the Burg in Levittown. Their tomato pies are delicious, thin crust with a slight char.”
— Ken
“Johnny’s Pizza in Bryn Mawr, when I actually remembered to order early in the afternoon. Controversial take: Best pizza value was the take home pizza from Costco. Totally solid crust, plentiful amount of pepperoni, all for $11. And that’s a full size, which got us three meals in total.”
— Patrick
