I'm honestly really disappointed with my experience at Bruno's Pizza. I ordered a Margherita pizza expecting something fresh and well-made, but it was the complete opposite. The sauce looked like it was just slapped on with no care, there was no oregano at all, and overall it just tasted off. For $25, I expected way better quality. I've had much better luck just getting a specialty pizza elsewhere like Dominoes, no offense, and at a better value too. This was definitely not worth the price. I'm attaching a picture so people can see what I'm talking about. Just a heads up--this was a letdown, and I won't be ordering from here again. read more

Bruno's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Reading, Pennsylvania

I was disappointed with my experience here. The pizza itself was not very tasty and definitely did not live up to expectations. On top of that, the service and overall setup were confusing. After ordering, no one gave any direction about where we were supposed to sit, so we were left figuring it out on our own. We also weren't told that food would not be brought out to us. After waiting, I went up to the counter to ask about our order and was simply told, "there's no service." A little communication upfront would have gone a long way and made the experience much less frustrating. If you want to sit at the bar and watch tv and get cheap this is your spot, otherwise try Sal's or Vinny's in Birdsboro. Higher quality of food and stellar service. read more

Decent pizza. Probably a 3.6 out of 5 for taste. I should have ordered extra sauce in addition to the extra cheese for the pizza read more

HORRIBLE FOOD. Margerita pizza was disgusting . It was like they poured tomato soup on it , so soggy and gross.

Bruno's was great!! My girlfriend has been raving about this place of her youth for years and it did not disappoint!! Just simple, good pizza. She got the Sicilian and it was everything for her. read more

Bruno's Pizza - Slice of ham and mushroom, arancini and a Rolling Rock for $1.50 - Pizza Near Me - Reading, Pennsylvania

This is my go-to pizza spot and also love the "leave it to us" hoagie. Always delicious. Also highly recommend the voodoo shrimp. It's very spicy (which I love) but I also like to get it to go and add it to cottage cheese or plain Greek yogurt to break the heat and a high protein meal. 10/10 recommend. read more

I have been getting Sicilian pizza from Bruno's for years. I usually get during lunch hours and not evenings. Whoever cooks during the day knows what they are doing. Pizza order: 1/2 sausage 1/2 onion, mushroom, spinach and anchovy The reason for one star review: (1) wet spinach thrown over pizza, including my sons half, which was sausage only (2) One of the corner pieces on my half had no cheese at all (3) There was 1 anchovy on each slice, which came to 3 anchovies in total I removed the wet spinach, but the nasty bitter taste was overpowering the pizza. I had to toss one slice from my son's half, because spinach was on one of his slices, and I tossed all three of my slices. So out of 6 slices only two slices were edible. The wings were delicious as always! Management needs to remind pizza makers that veggies/fruit goes on a pizza raw. They will cook in the oven. So, $30 down the drain, with the exception of the wings. read more

Bruno's Pizza - DISAPPOINTMENT - Pizza Near Me - Reading, Pennsylvania

Their pizza is definitely the best thing on their menu, though they also have cheesesteaks and many other menu items. I enjoy going during lunch, as there is typically a more casual vibe and there's a greater variety of pizza by the slice. The service is kind and very quick! read more

Went to eat there. Sat down and it was busy so we were patient. Sat for close to 20 minutes waiting. Another couple comes in and sits down - waitress rushing by tells us she will be with us - fine. Then five minutes later ignores us and waits in the people that came in 20 minutes after us. We just got up and left as my patience was gone. The other people who saw us sitting there before us also could have said something. At least a half hour or more just sitting there and nothing. Do better Brunos- hire more help or train your help better! read more

Ordered pizza through door dash. Brunos pizza sent the wrong order. I call brunos pizza and lady says the owner says there to busy to fix my order. Brunos lost a customer read more

This is a hidden gem in Exeter PA. Hidden right next to Boscovs store. I think this is one of the least expensive place to come out and drink. The pizza here is the best around. Sometimes I come a slice of pizza or two with two draft beers under $10.00. The people that work there are like family. Sometimes I may not show up for 8 or 10 months and when I walk in they still call me by my name. The bar is small but when it's full it reminds me of the show cheers. Where everyone knows your name. Come at least once and you will be hooked. Plenty of space to bring the family to sit and eat. They have other good options for food as well. Let me know if you stop by and tell me about your experience m read more

Very dossappinted with the two cheesesteaks that I order. I had addressed the lady at the counter 3 times about the correctness of the order, and was still messed up when I got home. The quality of service the past few years has gone down hill. Was nice while it lasted, but i'll take my business elsewhere. read more

Been going to Bruno's since the 1970's, always had good food, Except for today. Ordered a Sicilian Pizza and when I got it home the crust under the cheese was Burnt, to the point that you could see it through the cheese,I never had that happen anywhere. How someone can do that is beyond my understanding, apparently someone was not paying attention, there was a football game on the TV , I guess that was more important. The pizza was so bad that we could not eat it, it will be going to the compost so the critters can enjoy it (they'll eat anything) I live 10 miles away so to take it back I would have had to drive 20 miles, not worth it. Won't be going back for a looong time. read more

BEST CHICKEN WINGS IVE EVER HAD!!! The way they were cooked, the size, and their wing sauce. In love. Flavor and texture on point. Owners are angels Highly recommend *** :) read more

My favorite spot in the Mt Penn/Exeter area. Nice selection of cold taps. Pizzas and subs are great. Salads are huge. My favorite dish, though, is their Old Bay Wings. Buffalo style wings but tossed in Old Bay Seasoning and melted butter instead of hot sauce. Outstanding. We've gotten a table and sat at the bar. Service is invariably friendly and efficient. Definitely a hidden gem! read more

Normally enjoy pizza from here, but ordered some sandwiches. 2 BLT sandwiches and a veal parm. The BLT was on a hoagie roll and the bacon was literally bacon bits. It was ridiculous. The veal parm sandwich was not much better. The veal patty was burnt and dried out. Won't be getting sandwiches from there again, read more

Best place for pizza for many decades it has always been the best pizza in the area back in the eighties this was my high school hangout from lots of Southern Berks County. read more

I was hungry for pizza and excited to give them a try after many years away from the area. We ordered a half plain, half pepperoni pizza and veal parm. When we got home 20 minutes later, I found onions all over MY plain half! I hate onions, so I would have never mistakenly ordered them. I called to explain my disappointment. They did offer to exchange it if we brought it back or they would deliver, but we didn't have time to wait and didn't want to waste 40 minutes round trip to go back. Guess I'll need to learn to look at everything in the box before leaving. May be back but not in a hurry to go. read more

If I could give this place negative 5 stars, I would. In the last 10 months, 8 times I have phoned an order in only to be told when I get there, they forgot my order. Every last person who works there is a complete idiot. I have no idea how they have managed to stay in business with the crappiest service I have ever seen. The food is passable at best, I used it for convenience but now I will drive 25 miles for pizza so as to not ever step foot in that crap hole again. They should be embarrassed for themselves but I truly believe they are too stupid to understand the concept of good customer service. read more

We were in the area, which will probably never happen again since I live about 3000 miles away and we were just driving through. We wanted pizza and found this place. I was so glad to see the had pizza by the slice. We got the chicken Alfredo and something on focaccia. I forgot what it was called but that doesnt matter. Both were delicious. I'm sad I probably will never be back. So good! read more

I had been meanging to go to this place since it opened last year. Tried once in January but because of it's location atop a hill (overlooking Boscov's East) the ice and snow made me turn around. When you walk in there are fully stocked beer coolers. They have a great selection of take-out microbrews and domestic six-packs, all of which were very reasonably priced. Straight ahead is the kitchen (and brick oven!). To the right is the dining area and bar. I decided to take a seat at the bar. I was pleased to see that they had the entire family of Yuengling products on tap. I ordered a Lord Chesterfield Ale. I ordered one of their locally famous brick oven pizzas with salami. I got this tip from another foodie who posted on the merchantcircle site. Glad I went for it. Crust was perfectly thin, slightly charred, and the salami was not too greasy, even though I thought it might be. The saltiness of the salami was a nice completment to the tang of the sauce. Bartender seemed a bit distracted and didn't seem to have much of a sence of humor. Restrooms were run of the mill. Restuarnt was clean and pizza was spectacular. P.S. make sure to check out the picture of Rusty Wallace smoking a cigar while sitting on a blow up Miller Lite chair that was actually taken in the restaurant! read more

I went crazy went I first found this place! When we recently moved here from NYC I was very disappointed with a few pizzerias in Exeter until I found this place!! Everything is great! Everything taste like some of my favorite spots back home! Only down side is that they don't delivery. But they still get a 5 star rating the customer service and the pizza is just that good! read more

I ordered takeout from Bruno's and received an ant in my pizza box. I called the owner back and asked politely to speak to the manager, and was greeted with a sassy "I am the manager, blah blah blah you're a liar." The manager actually told me I was lying about this.. all I wanted was for them to replace it and they told me to F off. I've never reviewed anything on Yelp but this was by far the worst experience of an excuse of a pizza restaurant in Pennsylvania. I am being generous with the 2 stars... read more

The pizza here is regularly on par and delicious. Pizza made with care. Be aware of the time you stop in. During the week day lunch hours, you could face a swarm of other people if you want to grab a slice to go. There's a bar with tvs. There are sit in booths some that are padded and some without. Other menu are good and they are flexible about doing custom orders. The soup comes in a big bowl! They also have a regular pizza pass. So you buy a set amount of slices and once you fill up the card, the next slice is free. read more

This is a good local pizza place in Reading. It is tucked away back by the Fox Theaters in Exeter Township, and parking can be a pain in the but, however there is plenty of it. You may just need to walk a bit of a distance to and from your car. The pizza here is pretty standard across the local pizza places, until I found they make a true Chicago deep dish style of pizza. This thing is amazing (see picture). They start with the dough, which is practically a bowl, then they top it with cheese and pepperoni, followed by a sauce. I am not from Chicago, and I have never been, however I know people love the Chicago deep dishes and if they are like this one I can see why. If you order this be prepared to wait (it is about a 30-40 minute wait time depending on how busy they are). As long as they have this on the menu I will keep coming back. They also have very delicious cheese fries, if you are like me and love potatoes and cheese (it is a cheese sauce). The cheesesteaks and hoagies are OK, I have had much better, however in a pinch they will do. The pasta dishes are good as well, and they give you a good amount for the money you will spend. The beer selection is very large which makes this place a preferred stop if I am debating on another mom and pop pizza shop. As far as other reviews that mention a brick oven, I think it is a faux brick oven. A real brick oven is a wood fired brick oven, this is still just an electric commercial oven with a faux brick facing. I will look closer the next time I am in there though. read more

Wow man used eat pizza here at least 4-5 days a week the last three pizzas were horrible I ate one slice from the one last night and half a slice from the one tonight. The dough was so tough I couldn't figure out why until I looked underneathe it looked like old dough that crusted over on the outside and instead of throwing away still was made into pizza I thought I would never say this but I would rather of eaten little ceasers than this stuff smh read more

Your pizza is going to be a bit pricey and covered in grease. Some people really like greasy pizza. I'm on the fence. It's a solid place to grab a bite before a movie or a drug deal behind the movie theater. read more

Katie is the best server. She always has a smile and is quick with her service. Love the pizza.

These guys have been around since the dawn of time, and they are good, but their pizza is a notch below Riviera's, just up Perkiomen Avenue.

My husband went there yesterday to pick up our food. First off, they forgo to make our pizza!! Its in the name...pizza!! So he had to wait. NONE of the employees were wearing masks!!!!!!!! Also, they were allowing dining in and people to sit at the bar, which is currently not allowed. Then my husband had to ask them to remake our wings and fries, since they had been sitting out for at least 10 mintues. We had not been there in over a year, and this just reiterates to me why. A business that flaunts precautions that are in place to help prevent the spread of an infectious disease is not a place i will ever go to again! Lord knows what other corners they cut on a regular day. NEVER AGAIN!!! Don't waste your time or money! read more
