The Original |
Pepe's was established in 1925.
Frank Pepe looked upon his creation as "the poor man's answer to
hunger."
He formed a legacy that flourishes to this very day!
"Without a doubt, Pepe's makes the
best pizza!"
Albert Grande, webmaster@pizzatherapy.com

We started off with a Clam Pizza as an appetizer. The pizza crust was fantastic and the clams danced their way into our mouths.
"Are the clams fresh?", I asked. My friends were
embarrassed!
How could I question the integrity of Pepe's?
I was, however, invited
to go around back to the parking lot and told to peek into the kitchen door! There
was Leo, shucking a colander full of fresh clams (quahogs).
These clams were as
fresh as they get!

Espo and I had a Half Bacon, Half Pepperoni Pizza
while Jon F. and Sandy shared a Half
Onion, and Half Pepper Pizza. Each pizza was truly unique and wonderful.
I think the coal fired oven is what makes the pizza here so special!
The pizza is so big that you will not be able to eat it in one sitting.
You'll need to take some home for later!

"The crust is thin, thin and so crispy.
And the tomato
sauce is done with a minimum of spice.
The cheese is fresh as are all the
toppings."
Mark Esposito, Pizza Expert
