Discover the best pizza in Boston

Start with Regina Pizzeria, the listing with the most review activity, then compare a North End pie with a South Shore bar pizza if your trip reaches beyond the center.

Boston shares the regional bar-pizza tradition: a small round baked in a shallow steel pan until cheese crisps against the edge.

The North End has the densest visitor-friendly cluster, especially around Hanover and Salem streets. Strong options also sit in the South End, Cambridge, and Somerville.

It is a thin, personal-size pan pizza associated with taverns south of Boston. The dough bakes in an oiled steel pan, producing a crisp base and a dark cheese edge.

No. New York-style slices are easy to find, but Boston also has Sicilian bakery squares, wood-fired Neapolitan pies, and its own bar-pizza tradition.

Book popular sit-down rooms on Friday and Saturday. North End counters and slice shops are generally easier as walk-ins.

Yes. Neapolitan is currently the most common tagged style among our visible Boston listings.

A counter slice keeps the bill down. Full-service wood-fired rooms cost more, especially in the North End and central neighborhoods.

This page currently lists 30 visible pizzerias, and that number updates as the map changes.

We order them by pizza-focused feedback, not by the longest North End line or complaints about parking and table service.
