New York style pizza has moved to Maine! Lately's is Hallowell's newest rising star in the pizza…read moregame. Located on the edge of downtown, Lately's is serving up NY style pizza, breakfast all day (and night on the weekends), along with select signature sandwiches. The NY style pizza has the perfect char, does not droop, and the toppings do not slide off. Perfectly balanced with cheese to sauce to dough, I cannot get enough - especially when slices are huge and just $2.99! I have only had their pizza but the staff and atmosphere are warm, sunny, and super friendly. Their shop is easily accessed from Water Street where there is tons of free parking and is steps away from Granite City Park (you know - the place with the chairs). Lately's takes card and cash, and also offers Coke products, self serve coffee, and a selection of cold adult beverages! There is plenty of inside seating, but, in my opinion, the red table outside in the sun on the sidewalk is where I like to chill. NY style pizza is alive and well at Lately's in Hallowell.

Pleasantly surprised, the food was great! And the bar tender was helpful and friendly.read more

They have potential, and there is clearly a loyal following of locals. The barkeep and some locals…read morewere having a great time visiting, and we found ourselves a seat. We were not sure about the ordering process, and after a few minutes started trying to find the pub website and look for a menu. Eventually a menu was brought to our table, and we put in an order for beer. Turns out, half of the items on the menu were not available. When we did figure out an order, more items were made not available. We settled on a NY style pizza. We did not get the toppings we ordered. Good news: the crust was very good, and worth another try! Even the leftovers were delicious the next day - not all pizza can do that. They do not know how to pour a Guinness - which is too bad, because that is a favorite beer of ours. We switched to another tap and had a local red. The tap selection is decent. The place has a very casual atmosphere, and many locals come and go and seem to have great conversation and know each other's business. Overall, a place with great potential, especially for regulars. Hopefully, another visit will be more successful for exploring the menu which sounds good.

I'm sharing my new local pizza dive. I call it that but the foods outstanding! Family owned and run…read morethey claim the best pizza in town and they aren't wrong. It's located right on the main drag, they serve pizza, sammies, salads, wraps, everything you'd expect from a family run pie shop. They have cold sodas, water, juice, they have a few beers on tap and even little personal bottles of wine. You place your order at the counter and they give you a #'d table topper and you sit where you like. Booths, high tops, bench style family seating is all available in their clean, well lit dining area. It's not fine dining, self serve plates, and condiments are on a shelf in the corner, you can put your empties into the local recycling box - it's a great spot for a working lunch, they do a hopping take out business! Foods excellent, people are friendly and they do indeed have the best pizza in town.

Popped in for a quick slice and was REALLY impressed. I just tried their eggplant and ricotta which…read morewas great but the crust is what did it for me. I'm in the area for the next two weeks so you can guarantee I'll be back again for another slice or two.

Got 2 drinks "Old Fashioned" at the bar and took the ambiance in. Pretty busy for a weekday night. Got seated within 15-20 minutes by a window table. They served fresh bread & butter, got a Mesclun greens salad and for dinner we had the Bolognese, Grilled Short Rib, & crispy duck fat potatoes which were delicious and lots of flavor. Desert was Sticky Toffee Apple Pudding so yummy. Everything was fresh and served hot. Highly recommend if in the area to make this a stop but recommend making reservations unless you get a seat at the bar.

Have you ever met someone and had a long conversation and only after leaving sadly realize, that's…read moreprobably the last time I'll ever interact with that human? Such was the disposition of tonight. I went in right before closing and ordered a deluxe and as the pizza was cooking, had a long conversation with "Uncle Jeff". We caught up on where he came from, where his kids live, where he's owned pizza shops and have lived since moving from Greece. Fascinating guy and I'd love to come back and give him some more business but I don't make it out to Maine very often. As for the pizza, it's an odd combination of Greek/New York/Neapolitan styles but ultimately was pretty delicious. People of Maine, appreciate this gem and give this man your business. Stop by and don't be afraid to pause, leave your phone in the car, have a genuine conversation, and really appreciate a place whose blueprint is going to be obsolete in maybe less than ten years.

Grabbed a few pizzas here for dinner while driving through town. Very friendly gentleman that runs…read morethe place. Called ahead and picked up in 15 mins or so. Pizza is ok. Thin crispy crust style. I just had a pepperoni, so can't really speak to quality of toppings.
