Cafe Capri is where I like to get my "fancy" pizza! I have never ate at the restaurant itself and usually opt for a takeout order so I cannot speak to dine in to date - or all of the other really great looking things on their menu. The pizza however is always really good! I do find it to be a little on the pricier side for a pizza, but it is good quality and not like Dominos or Pizza Hut style pizza. I usually get the Rustico which is sausage peppers and ricotta. It's always really tasty. Pizzas come in two sizes, I think a 12" and 16". They have their gourmet pizzas, like the rustico that are pre-created, or you can build your own. Menu has a whole bunch of other things - apps, salads, pastas, calzones, sandwiches- you name it. I have done takeout a number of times and delivery I think once. When I call in, the people are always nice and friendly - and provide me with expected total and time. I find they are pretty quick which is good. I'd be interested in trying other things on their menu and maybe eating in some time - but for now, really enjoy their pizza and recommend!! read more

Been there many times and love the food went there and they said you can sit anywhere sat at a high top table and was sitting there for at least 10 minutes before I asked for a menu and then I sat there for another 10 minutes before they asked me for a drink well the bartender was to busy talking with her friends to be honest the service sucked the Guinness I got was flat just not happy with that place the men's room was dirty and disgusting not very clean like it should be maybe you should get better people there I won't be going back there I did like the food no complaints about that. Just the service and the cleanliness of the restaurant I don't write to many bad reviews but when the service is lousy people should know read more

PIZZA PIZZA PIZZA! Best Pizza in town. I just wish they would deliver during the day. My senior father in town recently lost his ability to drive. He gets hungry early. I wish it was available from Uber Eats. It's all in the sauce! They have a wonderful tasting sauce. It's the reason I have kept coming back the last 40 years. Nothing else compares. read more

Had lunch here a few days ago. My husband and I ordered the chicken wrap with a lemonade and ice tea. Awful is an understatement. The wrap was all lettuce, next to no chicken and no seasoning. The fries were good. Lemonade, we had to send it back and the useless waitress gave us a bottled lemonade. Ice tea was no better. The waitress useless! Checked on us when we were done. Reluctantly changed the lemonade. If she had a brain she wouldn't have served it. Lunch was over 40.00$ !!! Not worth it. Not recommending this place. read more

This is a great place for pizza night. The staff is terrific. It's the best pizza in Reading.

Visited Cafe Capri for family birthday party! I haven't been to Cafe Capri in a long, long time. I would say close to 20 years. I have always been a fan just not geographically close as I use to be. We had a party of 9. We got there a different times so we started with some drinks and waited to order when everyone arrived. It was dinner time so it was a busy time....lots of peoople in and out picking up orders to go. They were hopping around the bar and all the tv's had games on, including the preview of the MNF game. Certainly a good vibe. We ordered 4 pizzas (2 cheese, 2 pepperoni, a chicken finger dinner and a caesar salad) all of the food came out at the same time, which is always nice. The food was hot and looked great....see pics! We all were very pleased with the food as it was devoured with one slice of pizza left! The service was great...although she was up against it with a table of 9 plus, I am sure, other tables! We all left pleased and full...which is always a good thing! 5 stars and I will be back before I left another 20 years slide by! PS: Plenty of parking....price was great! read more

Service: Great. Food: Terrible. Ambiance: Lighting is overly harsh. Change your bulbs please. I think this is one of Reading's only restaurants that have been able to survive, so they have a following. But the food is terrible. You might go there to meet up with friends but don't expect any classic Italian dishes. Our wedding soup was cold with large chunks of barely cooked spinach, and our "bruschetta" consisted of congealed cheese and one tomato on an enormous soft piece of sesame seed bread. The chicken parm comes with a dish of Prego style sauce and ziti. The cherry in top of this terrible meal was the crusty glass my red wine was served in. Not worth your time or money. read more

We haven't gone here in 15 years because our kids & friends preferrred Reading house of pizza. We finally called for take out and the girl answering the phone was so rude - saying that chix cacciatori was chinese? Uh that is italian & if a mistake was made maybe there's a better way to communicate to the customer! We went somewhere else & will continue to so. You lose! read more

Wowow! Reading! Are you looking for delicious gluten free pizza? You found it! Great crust, lovely sauce, tons of choices. The server was super helpful in recommending toppings - I went with ricotta and spinach. Yummy! I am not generally a fan of gf pizza but when you're on the road for work, take what you can get. Hope work takes me near Cafe Capri again. I'll be having leftovers for breakfast in my hotel room. And the server? Welcoming, friendly, had great input on the menu. There were multiple large groups who seemed to be enjoying the whole vibe, too. This place was an all around win. I'd take a picture but I ate most of the pizza already read more

Service is great. Food is actually kinda good. Has a bunch of TVs for entertainment and chairs are comfy and tables are clean. My dad says best eggplant in the country. read more

This is our favorite pizza place in the area! We love the cheese pizza with dressing for dipping! Also love the Tuscan wings and chicken broccoli ziti...always consistently great! read more

10/10 north end style pizza with Greek dressing on the side. Great great great I need more characters to submit my review. Great.

Went here for a big work gathering. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Drinks were good and excellent pizza.

I've been eating Capri cheese pizza (with a side of house dressing) for years, decades, maybe, now? And it's always hit the spot for me and anyone I've introduced to it. I'm also a huge fan of their Greek salad- it's a good ratio, and makes for a good dinner on a warm evening. I've only recently eaten in at the restaurant, which didn't disappoint at all. They had a wide variety of drinks (non-alcoholic and alcoholic) and we had very prompt service. My husband really likes their steak and cheese subs too. Definitely keeping Capri in rotation at our house for as long as possible. read more

Cafe Capri is a solid choice for pizza in Reading. Having lived here twice and a spouse who is a native to the area, there is no other pizza option for us. The recent renovations on the restaurant have added a bar to the back of the restaurant moving it from the front where it was, and spruced up the inside. The pizza has always been fabulous- we stay with the traditional large cheese or extra cheese pepperoni or plain cheese pizzas. A nice thick puffy crust and deliciously cooked dough that carries the sauce and cheese don't tend to flop too much and are delicious. Watch out for the extra cheese- make sure it cools first your all of your cheese will slide off the end (take it from one who knows) making for a delicious cheese sauce pile but not on the dough like you wanted. This is because when you ask for extra- Capri complies and puts a ton of cheese on the pie (it's fantastic). Definitely a place to stop if you haven't been there before or are curious. It will always remain my family's go-to! read more

The pizza is fine, not the best I've ever had and far from the worst. The cheese and sauce are decent, the dough is alright. Pretty expensive pizzas compared to some of the other local shops. I didn't mind the food, but I'm most certainly not going out of my way to order from here any time soon. read more

We hadn't been in years, but didn't have the energy to cook or drive. We ordered chicken parm with ziti and a steak tip Greek salad for delivery. We were told 40 min, but got it in 30. We really enjoyed our meals. Servings were generous, so we have leftovers. The accompany roll was fresh and nice. We will be doing that again. read more

Such a great experience, our server Jenn could not have been more accommodating or friendly! Highly recommend the Tuscan wings and the Melanzana pizza pizza, wow! You won't regret it. We will be back, regularly. Also great coloring books and crayons which with our kids goes a LONG way! read more

*Covid 19* First time here, I don't go to reading often place give me hives but my husband said this place hads good pizza. So we grab a pizza and some Zella sticks. Both were yummy. I really loved the crust, we did ask for well done. I would definitely order again. I'm not sure if they do delivery or not, but the pizza was yummy. read more

The pizza is excellent. Other food on the menu is average at best. But - and here is my big problem with this place - they have jacked up the prices insanely high. My wife and I went there, got one pizza and 2 "martinis" each and it was close to a hundred bucks. they charged somewhere north of $25 for the pizza with just a few toppings and $16 for each of the four drinks. We will not return there. read more

Never disappoints, tonight had the Italian sub, the food is always delicious and the staff is amazing. read more

Ever since I was a child, I have always enjoyed coming to Capri. The food and service are excellent. (The pizza is hands down the best around. House dressing is what dreams are made of.) The owners are wonderful, too! The main dining room has recently been renovated and featured a gorgeous new horseshoe shaped bar, and there's a view of the game on TV no matter where you sit! Capri has a lovely family feel and has something for everyone on the menu, be it a healthy salad, loaded calzone, seafood dish, BBQ or an old school Italian favorite. What I especially love is that the food is consistently delicious whether you dine in, take out, or have need for catering! If you dine in, be sure to ask for a side of their delicious tomato sauce to dip your bread in before dinner! It is soooo good! Thank you, Cafe Capri, for being a family staple! read more

Great food, fantastic service and can accommodate almost any size party! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!!

Best pizza in Reading without question. Minimal flop and solid crisp. If you order delivery it always seems to arrive in half the duration the said. Sometimes in 15-20 minutes read more

Best pizza on the north shore! Plus the house dressing is amazing! I have been looking for a place that has similar pizza and I can't find it read more

yesterday, my girlfriend and I stopped in here for a large cheese pizza and a mozzarella stick and let me to tell you we will be returning without a doubt. It was probably one of the best pizzas you'll ever have. We absolutely loved it, the sticks were pretty damn good as well! read more

One of the best pizzas in the area. Excellent cheese, sauce, crust, and toppings. Either the regular or "north end style" (Regina style, thin crust) are both great. read more

Their north end style pizza is thin but delicious!!!! Toasted ravioli are very good too. They always tell me 45-hr for delivery but they are fast ...it usually arrives in 1/2 hour. North end pizza runs you 13.50 And toasted ravioli are $9 read more

Their food is always top notch. They have REAL ITALIAN PIZZA And their salads are phenomenal and their chicken wings are phenomenal. They make one of the best Seabreeze drinks I've ever had. If you go to there by you will see everybody there with a "pink" drink in front of them always very personable. The owner and his family are present and it's not unusual to see Mike the owner carrying a huge tray of food. We do takeout and it is good but there's nothing like eating it fresh and hot there. read more

Great bartender woody great wings good pizza staff very nice recommendation to all go there and enjoy.

For the best classic Italian style pizza in the north shore! Tremendous casual bar with excellent on tap offerings and the gold standard for bartenders. Rich no matter how busy he is always takes the time to make you feel welcome and delivers exemplary service read more

Their soup taste phenomenal. the pizza is another reason for me to come here for my food. Friendly staff

Excellent food and friendly service. The buffalo wings were crispy and the pizza is excellent

I heard from a neighbor that this place has good pizza. NOPE! My pizza was so dry and overcooked and two of my friends ordered chicken piccata and both of them barely touched it. The waitress asked them if they wanted to take it to go and they both said nope, they didn't like it. The restaurant seems very popular and was crowded and very loud, but I just don't get it. Not enjoyable by any stretch of the imagination. read more

3rd time around, Café Capri failed. We ordered a Margarita pizza, and this is what we got. Basically, a cheese pizza with basil on top. We called to let them know about the order and manager/owner, Michael, got on the phone, and we had to go over many times what a Margarita should be like. He said I'll send you another pizza; we denied. What we really wanted to let him know is that his staff should be corrected to make it properly. I feel Capri or Michael have no clue how customer service business should be run in a restaurant. 2nd time I ordered, they gave my order to another person that had my first name. I showed up, and they told me the situation. They (Michael) offered me a beer while I waited for them to make my order. Meanwhile, I see the hostess calling the person that gave my order offering to replace their order at no change. I stood there for 20 mins while they made my order only offering me a beer that only costs them $1.00 out of pocket. Piss poor service, IMO! Just to let you know, this was Pre COVID. read more

Cafe Capri - Not a Margarita pizza. Pretty much a cheese pizza with basil on it. - Pizza Near Me - Reading, Massachusetts

I've eaten here many times, but mostly for table service at night and had good experiences. Today I decided to order two slices of cheese pizza for takeout lunch. I called ahead as to not be waiting around, and was surprised to be told it would be 20 mins for two slices at lunch. When I got there 20 mins later, the woman on the counter finished up with the customer ahead of me then took a call for an order of many items totaling over $100, so it took a while. It was finally my turn - I paid and was handed my box. I asked for a plastic knife, snd she didn't seem to like it. She said "just a minute" and took the order of the man behind me then got his order and handed it to him then handed me my knife. She was rude and unwelcoming and the pizza was cold and dried up. I threw most of it away. A total rip off for $6. Won't be going there again. read more

Just passing through Route 28 and I didn't want to eat McDonald's, Burger King or Dunkin Donuts. I opted for a chicken wrap with a side of pasta salad. I walked in an there was NO one there during lunch time. Absolutely dead quiet. But, I thought to give it a try, anyway. Lady came up to the counter after a minute or so. My chicken wrap was done in 8 minutes. I was quoted 2. But, I'm sure that was just an exaggeration. Lady was nice, but don't expect anything above and beyond. As for the taste test: it's purely bland. There is no flavor or depth to this at all. Sorry guys, I don't want to knock you down. This place looks really cool and fancy on the inside. I would hate for this place to fail sometime in the near future. I wish this place could be on Restaurant Impossible. This place needs help is all that I'm saying. read more

Everything is so good and delicious, the pizza, the french fries, the salads, chicken, Parm, the wings, the atmosphere I just love it

The food is average. The environment is slightly below average and the customer service is awful. Italian style greasy pizza (not in a negative way - it's yummy) and decent but not great chicken wings. The wait can be ridiculous. And they are very unapologetic. Last time I was there I waited an additional 20 minutes because my first pizza was burnt only to come home and find the second one black on the bottom. Not ok. And they only offered me a credit towards a future pizza for the same amount in exchange. Although they have the space for large groups they are very unaccommodating for sports teams and other large groups. read more

We ordered takeout here the other night and it was excellent: the Caprilicious pizza, bruschetta, and a large garden salad to share. The pizza was delectable, it doesn't come with tomato sauce but instead olive oil and two different kinds of cheeses, roasted red peppers, caramelized onions, sausage and chicken. Nice flavors, and a good amount of cheese and toppings! The bruschetta was good too, except it wasn't technically bruschetta. It was french bread with cheese and diced tomatoes, and didn't have a marinade or balsamic dressing on top or anything like that. It was still tasty though. The garden salad was pretty much standard sub shop fare, nothing in particular stood out but the ingredients were fresh. We also had a coupon from the menu which was helpful, we saved about $5 on our $25 order. It's a nice place and I'll definitely be back! read more
