    This place popped up on a search for "gluten-free."  We decided to give it a try, and we were not disappointed.  Not only do they have gluten-free pizza, they have an entire gluten-free menu, which is always nice to see.  We opted for an appetizer of hummus and gluten-free corn tortillas, and a gluten-free pizza with spinach.  There was a lot of hummus - two large scoops - but it was decent.  The pizza was very good (even compared to regular pizza), the crust was crunchy, and the 12-inch size was a good amount for the two of us.  Nice place with snappy service.  It is BYOB and they'll even supply wine glasses.

    This was another trip during lunch break. This pizza joint is right by Merck at Lansdale, therefore, crowded during lunch. Good luck finding a parking spot!

    Instead of taking the risk of getting a seat, we got to-go. I got a slice of Boston Special which has grounded sausage, peppers, mushrooms, onions and olives on top. I skipped the anchovy. The crust is different in a way that it is very airy and cheesy. I guess that's what Boston style is? I have never it before, so I won't know what to compare to. The crust tasted okay to me, but I do appreciate the fresh toppings, especially the mushrooms. I despite those pizza joints who just throw canned mushroom on top.

    When it comes to the selection, you can choose to get a slice of any specialty pizzas they have, plain or a white pizza. For the specialty slice, it comes to less than $3, which is average price.

    The pizza here has a light, slightly chewy crust, which is not really Boston-like but I still kinda like.  It's not as good as Emma's in Kendall Sq. in Cambridge, or even the Upper Crust, but it will do for Lansdale.  Ask for extra sauce or get the white primavera.  The crust is more pan-like than the chewy, thin, crispy Emma crust.

    Pizza (half plain, half pepperoni) was okay. The crust was light, airy, and a mix between chewy and crisp (only crisp on the outside, not the bottom). Something was missing from the pizza though. It didn't have enough sauce, and was overloaded with cheese, but was missing some flavor. We had to add some oregano, garlic and Parmesan to really enjoy it.

    Our waitress was super friendly and attentive but our order of fries, that we requested come out before the pizza, arrived just as the pizza was delivered to our table. Oh well. They weren't that good anyway. No flavor and they were my least favorite kind: thick steak fries. Crispy though, which is nice.

    This place is actually a small, cozy restaurant once you walk past the front counter. Never would have guessed or expected that from driving by.

    "Freshly baked" cookies sounded great so we ordered three for $1. They were tiny and tasted like they had been baked way early that morning and sitting out on a platter all day. Not impressed, but what can you expect from a pizza place?

    I'd come back, but to order a pasta dish, as a lot of people around us had done. Also, it's a BYOB! yay!

    Boston Style Pizza has become our go-to pizza place. After my boyfriend and I moved to Lansdale, we received a free $10 coupon to Boston Style Pizza so we took a trip with a friend.  We got half buffalo chicken and half plain and left extremely happy. Their pizza is GOOD.  It's "Boston style", so the pizza itself, especially the crust is not what you'd typically expect, but it's great.  The dining room is usually bustling, and it's a nice touch that the owner walks around to everyone's tables to check on them.

    A friend and I ordered the Greek Pizza today for lunch and were COMPLETELY floored.  The feta was perfect, the dough was crunchy and soft in all the right places, the veggies were cooked and warm but not overcooked and mushy.  This may become our new favorite lunch spot.

    We've ordered quite a few pizzas over the years with their white being OUTSTANDING and their pepperoni satisfying even my father who only likes "real pizza made at places with names like Tony's and Nino's."

    P.S. - My usual delivery order here is either a veggie grinder or veggie stromboli, both of which are great, and HIGHLY recommended!

    Much better pizza compared to another local joint I recently tried.  The crust was much crispier, especially the edges.  I would have preferred even firmer yet, but overall a decent quick-lunch option.  They have an extensive menu and I'd love to try some of the other items at some point.

    My friend and I ordered the Meat Lovers' pizza and the Italian meat pizza. I asked for no green peppers on the Italian pizza. So instead, they put red peppers. I think they missed the idea. Both pizzas come with meatballs according to the menu, but there were none. When we asked where the meatballs were, they said it was the ground meat that was on the top. Other pizzas said "ground beef", so why did this one say meatballs and not have them? As for taste, the pizzas were very good. But the owner obviously has trouble getting good help, or they need to reprint their menus. Just make sure that they put everything on the pizza(s) that they say comes with them. We'll go back, but this time we'll be armed.

    You could never tell from the outside of this otherwise very generic looking building,  but the food there always exceeds my expectations.  So to avoid writing a long review I will just put it in two words: Fresh ingredients.  
    I kept wondering why the simple food tastes so much better an came to the realization that fresh, quality ingredients really make a great difference.  I don't really like feta cheese and theirs is so fresh that I actually enjoy it.
