I’m lucky to work a block away from Regina Pizzeria |
I am lucky because my full time job at MaidPro is right down the street from Regina Pizzeria, a staple in Boston since 1926. Regina Pizzeria’s flagship and first restaurant is located on Thatcher Street in the North End of Boston although they now have locations all over Massachusetts.
I do enjoy a two slice lunch from Regina’s. Its so easy for me to take a quick walk down the street, grab the slices and come back to the office to eat here. On most days, there is usually a line with tourists and locals alike awaiting a seat, however, if you’re taking out, you can skip the line and go right up to the bar. The always have cheese slices and pepperoni slices on a daily basis along with some type of specialty slices. Today’s was onion and sausage.
I like their pizza, even though sometimes I do find the crust to be a little doughy. I look past that because the sauce and the cheese make up for it. When I do order with toppings, they never skimp and they are usually falling off when I’m trying to eat it.
If you are eating in, they have just a few booths and tables. Expect to be sitting very closely with whatever group you came with. When I do stay to eat on those occasional dinners, I like to sit at the bar. The bar tenders are often friendly and I’ve often met people also sitting at the bar from out of town. They also have a nice selection of cold beers. Don’t go looking for a huge selection but they do have some variety.
If you plan to eat at this original Regina Pizzeria, make sure you let me know. Especially if it’s during lunch, I’ll walk over and meet you there!
