Regina Pizzeria Boston
Iconic North End Slice
If you’re looking for a pizza experience that will truly stay with you, let’s head to Boston’s Italian neighbourhood, the North End. This historic area is known for its old-world charm, narrow cobblestone streets, and incredible food—and at the heart of it, all is Regina Pizzeria, a legendary spot that has been serving up some of the best pizza in the city since 1926.
As Boston’s oldest pizzeria, Regina has perfected the art of making pizza. While the brand has expanded with other locations, nothing beats the charm and authenticity of its original North End storefront. The cosy, bustling atmosphere, checkered tablecloths, and walls lined with vintage photos of celebrity visitors add to the pizzeria’s timeless appeal.
The pizzas here are truly legendary. If you ask me, the white pizza is an absolute standout, with its perfect balance of gooey, flavorful cheeses atop a crisp yet chewy crust. If you prefer to get creative, you can customize your own pizza with various fresh, high-quality ingredients from their menu. Every element is carefully chosen—the dough is made fresh daily, the sauce is crafted with a special blend of spices, and the meats, including their famous meatballs and sausages, are prepared from a cherished family recipe.
As a Boston local, Regina Pizzeria is always my go-to when I crave a great pizza. Be prepared for a long wait, as they don’t take reservations— but trust me, once you take that first bite, you’ll know it was worth every minute.
