We are regulars at Pat's Pizza in Orono. We like the congenial staff service and the pizza is good. I have tried several other menu items but my favorite is the pizza. Our personal favorite is the chicken jubilee! We prefer the marinara sauce over standard pizza sauce. The marinara sauce is especially flavorful and robust. The atmosphere is very family friendly and the pricing is excellent. There are only 2 pizza sizes but the small is basically a medium sized pie and the large is very large. It's common to be taking home leftovers! The staff make menu changes/substitutions to accommodate special requests which I often do an easy option! Order mistakes are rare but when and if, they are quickly rectified and we have seen it happen without a charge on the check! There is parking front and rear but the rear parking is a lot off the street and easier.

I especially like their pastrami pizza. I had the spaghetti once but the pasta was a bit overcooked. The serving sizes do satiate my appetite. It's a comfortable family atmosphere. The service is congenial and usually quite prompt.

The staff was friendly.
The pepperoni pizza was greasy but tasted fine. It's average at best, but good if you want pizza.
Hand cut fries were excellent.
Root beer float was decent. Asked for coffee ice cream in it. Got vanilla. Then was told it was coffee. It wasn't coffee, unless the coffee tastes like vanilla.
Cool, old school interior. Fair prices. Go and see for yourself.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 3, 2023
Went with a friend who is working in Bangor for a few months, he had been several times and I trusted his decision. Monday night around 6:30pm and it was busy!!! We parked in back, so I had a good look at what everyone was eating before we found one of the last available tables.
He suggested we share a large pizza, it sounded good to me and after driving 4 hours and having nothing but an apple since the night before, I would have eaten anything. He ordered the Buffalo Chicken, it's not what I would have chosen but I figured it would be fine.
Better than "fine".... it was delicious!! He had his with ranch dressing, but I was happy with it as it was. Good flavor, spicy but not too much and after three slices I was happy. Corey was our server, he checked in on us several times, made sure we had everything that we needed and thanked us when we left. Pat's has several locations, I will definitely go in any of the other towns if I wind up there!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Lori G.Las Vegas, NV177361Mar 8, 2024
Okay, this is my experience. Ordered a delivery and it was totally screwed up, so that was disappointing, but when I called the manager was great and gave me a refund for my portion of the order and told me to just stop by and I could get product. Felt it was totally reasonable. But then I went to the restaurant. I just cannot bring myself to eat from a place so worn down and dirty. Every surface I made contact with was either sticky or oily. Hubby and I stood near the end of the counter and waited. There was only one couple seated and truly no one upfront was working...one person was on their phone and a couple were laughing and goofing around. The longer I stood there the more I was gagged out by the place. Finally I said let's go and that was that. I give it two stars because my spouse liked his pizza...I am just glad I didn't eat any. Your call on how badly you want pizza regardless of how clean the kitchen is where it was cooked. Good luck.

If you want real pizza go to Pizza Regina North end Boston it's a long way but worth every bite!!!

Got a large cheese pizza, it was definitely pretty greasy. The cheese was pretty good, had a nice texture. Sauce was really good, had a nice balance of sweetness and acidity. Crust was doughy but not chewy. I'm more familiar with Greek style and Neapolitan, this was definitely different. Fast service, was ready in 10min as they promised. Pretty good overall, would try again.

Pizza was excellent and our server was wonderful even though she was very busy.
HOWEVER. if you are in a wheelchair the ramp is extremely dangerous an not ada accessible. It is a danger. I fell out of my wheelchair after a great meal. That is the only reason for my poor reviewHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Kelly M.Orono, ME01Dec 21, 2023
