My go to place when I'm in town. I have only had the cheesesteak and pizza and can say each time I had them they were delicious. The crust of the pizza is ideal not to thick or doughy. The toppings are ample and fresh. On to the cheesesteak. Skimpy doesn't fit here as the steak is given in an ample portion. Nicely seasoned and of a good quality. I definitely will be eating there when I'm back in the area. read more

Pizza is really good! The rest of the broad menu is good for what it is, but not the best sandwiches, appetizer foods or pasta dishes out there. Milkshakes are amazing!!!! read more

If you're in the mood for lackluster pizza, this is the place. I picked up 3 large pizzas (plain, pepperoni, and veg) which cost $53 including tax. Service was just okay. As you can see from the pictures, the pizzas were medium-sized at best and had the blandest crusts to ever exist. Pies of disappointment. I've included the following quotes from the people who were with me: -Gummy crust, lacks flake -Sauce is f*cked -Under-sized -Cheese isn't gooey and not melty We chose this place because it was close, but next time we'll be sure to go the extra few blocks for food that's appetizing and actually worth the price, because holy crap. read more

I've gotten their pizza for a very long time, but just recently we got lasagna for a party and it was delicious!

Their pizza is OK. But I did enjoy their grilled chicken hoagie. They close early on weekends-bummer! I appreciate their bright and spacious eating area. read more

The Atmosphere is Bustling. The Owner is very Welcoming & it shows with the busy ladies who answer the phone showing; professionalism, patience & concern with the order taking process. The Order was promptly presented upon arrival & the grilled chicken salad was so moist & flavorful that you did not even need the dressing. The steak Stromboli was excellent with just enough cheese, plenty steak & onions. There is a myriad of deserts. The cheesecake is too awesome . I highly recommend this business. read more

After a very long night of venturing around the city trying to find places to eat during the Eagles play off game, we found Colonial Pizza here on Yelp. We are visiting Philly from Texas and not used to the big city. We stumbled into the store, ordered in person for takeout and was greeted with smiles, patience and politeness. The food turned out great and they were made quickly-20 minutes. We had Pizza, wings, cheese sticks, red velvet cake, cheesecake and an Oreo shake. Our kids loved the pizza and desserts. We highly recommend this place! read more

Best cheesesteak in West Philadelphia, top 10 in the whole city. Buffalo chicken, philly special, classic, they're all stuffed with flavor on the best bread in town. The other stuff on the menu- wings, fries, pizza- are all good as well, and most of the area is around the same price point for appetizers and such. Definitely more worth it that some places just because the portions are great and leftovers are a certainty! Most recently I got the spaghetti with meat sauce and the platter was huge. Took me 3 tries to finish the whole thing and the sauce was flavorful, the spaghetti wasn't over cooked and it was a great choice for take out! I don't live on that block anymore, but sometimes I miss the wings and cheesesteak Sundays I'd have with Colonial Pizza. read more

Colonial Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ordered the meatball sandwich and bones chiken wings. The amount of food is way more than expected. But I managed to finish everything just to show the chief how much I loved the flavor. One of my favorite restaurant in Philadelphia. read more

Colonial pizza is very good when you in the mood for something like cold cut or sandwiches. My favourites from them personally is their clubs like their chicken club and tuna and egg clubs, their so good I get so indecisive I literally a flip a quarter to pick which one. Their turkey hoagies are banging too If you a stone cold turkey hoagie fan. Listen their wraps are good, quesadillas, and their side orders like pizza fries, mini tacos, and colonial fries are good. So If your in Southwest or West this is one of those spots that you can have delivered and would appreciate. They decent. One more thing, their delivery guys cool as hell too so they deserve tips although I always tip anybody regardless. read more

Great food and drinks. Good NY style pizza, must try. My personal favorite drink is the chocolate milkshake.

Let me start off saying I'm a pizza carnosaur, i love pizza. So my cousin always talks about this place sauce and their pizza, i had food from here about 9 years ago and it was just ok. But i tried today and man.. it was bangin, the sauce is nice and zesty not overly sweet but nice and flavorful. The Staff was super friendly as well i think i found my go to place for a nice Pie. read more

Pizza was pizza. I would order the pizza again. Pepperoni really helps takes a mediocre pizza to the next level.

Amazing! Pizza is delicious! Wings are great! Service and Delivery is always quick and satisfying! Colonial's Cheese Pizza and Buffalo Chicken Pizza are a must try! Trust you won't be disappointed! Excuse the Photo I couldn't wait to indulge! read more

Colonial Pizza - Plain Pizza French Fries - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I love Colonial Pizza! I moved to a different neighborhood but still order whenever I can. The eggplant parm sub is HUGE and very reasonably priced. Overall they have great food with great prices. The folks at the counter are always super friendly. read more

One of the better pizza spots in UCity. The price is right, the mozzarella is bruised just enough to give it that smokey char, but not so much that it tastes like you're eating burnt sacks, and their pies hold up under the weight of many toppings (the Colonial Special is bomb) without becoming soggy mutant slime pizza creatures that just shed their cheesy skin onto the cardboard while you run off to cry in the corner. Not that I've had that reaction to pizzas from other places. You've got no video evidence, so leave me alone. Anyway, try these guys out if you're hankering for a good pie. read more

The eggplant pizza, well done, extra sauce, made me go "Mmm!" with every bite. The pepperoni pizza, well done, extra sauce, is delicious and herbaceous and tangy and also perfect with every bite. The crust is the slightest bit buttery, the perfect amount. My fiancee says, "Eggplant pies are in my future." I ordered delivery. I will absolutely do it again. read more

The following are what you should come here for: - A plain cheese slice - Buffalo chicken wings - Mozzarella sticks I am completely addicted to their mozzarella sticks (I have not tasted better ones in Philly), and I usually order them with a side salad, which is fresh and filling on its own. Their fries also look good, but I haven't tried them yet. Saving those for a future trip after maybe spending a month at the gym. The service has always been friendly in my experience, and they work pretty efficiently. As long as you stay away from the burger and don't expect artisan coal oven pizza (seriously, their cheese slice is simple and delicious), I am sure you will be content with this place. read more

I've eaten here a lot over the past year, as my partner lives but a block away. Their pizza is awesome, like really awesome. Especially when it's piping hot when you live a block away. Our go to-s are definitely their Hawaiian and Supreme. I got their Colonial Gourmet burger before too, but without the thousand island dressing and it was really good too -- great for your standard corner food store. Sandwich wise my go to is their Colonial special chicken cheesesteak -- hard to go wrong with tomatos, cheese, green peppers, pepperoni and mushrooms on a cheesesteak! Last week was the first time they messed up my order -- but we were in a rush so we couldn't call them to correct it. We ordered 2 Colonial chicken cheesesteaks , and received 2 colonial BEEFsteaks which was a super bummer since we recently stopped eating pork and beef. I feel pretty confident that they would have corrected it since we're regulars.. I really hope so anyway! Honestly, one of the best pizzas in University of Sciences area. Great neighborhood joint read more

If I could give Colonial zero stars I would right now! They just charged me $10 for a dollar corner store cheesesteak. I called to let them know that I was unhappy with my cheesesteak And I was told that the bread is now a little bigger but the meat is already accounted for. It's supposed to be 8 ounces of meat so he says, but as you can see here that can't be true! Not to mention even if it was 8 ounces, $10. If you're going to charge people $10 for a cheesesteak and you say your bread is bigger now you would be better off charging a little extra and giving them the product that they're used to. I have never had a cheesesteak so skimpy from Colonial. With bad customer service included! This is not my first terrible experience with Colonial lately. I ordered what used to be one of the best Strombolis in the neighborhood but when I received this one, it tasted like they opened a can of the cheapest nastiest most aluminum tasting tomato salt and put it directly in the Stromboli, no seasoning no nothing. I decided to give them another chance because Colonial used to be so good. It wasn't a fluke, it's just trash. I will never ever spend another dime a Colonial!!!!! read more

Cheesesteaks and delivery were both excellent. The mozz sticks could've been cooked another 1-2 minutes.

Having Colonial Pizza so close to our house is the greatest thing, we order it at least once a week because the food is so good and consistent! Service is always quick as well! Definitely recommend any pizza and the curly fries! read more

Ordered my food and paid. When I looked at the receipt when the food arrived there was an additional "Misc Food Item" charge of $1.15 added. When I called to inquire what the additional "Misc Food Item" charge of $1.15 was, i was told it was so they could round up the total to make it even. The person said it was a common charge and there was no additional food item ordered. Check your receipts they are doing this to everyone that orders online with the hopes that you don't check your receipts when you get your food. read more

terrible service. was disgusted with the way they treat their customers. blasting music with drunk children running around. they served alcohol to a table of middle schoolers. read more

the cheese pizza is very yummy nice crust imo the right amount of sauce & cheese. the folks who work there are friendly too

Absolutely delicious! I can't stop ordering from here!! I've only had the wings and stromboli but perfection in a box read more

Colonial Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ordered a Veggie Calzone with fresh garlic, no olives, no broccoli. It definitely had olives, yuck. If there was any garlic it wasn't worth $1.50 extra. 30 minutes for pickup seemed a little long. Tasted ok if a little bland. read more

I don't know if you guys are eating at the same place, but the pizza I ordered from here was by far the worst pie I have ever had. I didn't think that you could screw up something as simple as pizza so badly, but Colonial managed to do the impossible. The pizza, to sum it up, tasted worse than the worst you can find in the pre-packaged frozen food isle. It was luke warm (guessing that's because the delivery took over 45 mintues), overly cheesy and greasy, and I was convinced that the crust/dough was completely artificial. Fresh ingredients? Yeah right, try freshly thawed. Oh and the side of garlic bread--let's just say I'd rather eat cardboard. I am never ordering from this place again. Not even their other dishes. Colonial is such an ignominy to the pizza business that I don't think they deserve any business, ever again. read more

Their pizza is typically delicious. Today, I ordered my usual from them (pizza with pepperoni and onions). The onions seemed to have been placed on a pre-made pepperoni pizza because they were raw - (like hoagie-ready). I took away more stars because their response was "did you want them cooked?!" Since when do people request to have their pizza toppings cooked with the pizza???! A simple - sorry for being inconsistent would have sufficed... read more

Colonial Pizza - Pepperoni pizza with raw onions . - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ever since I moved to Philly, I never had a good pizza such as Colonial. Their slices are not too rouh or soft, but just right. The cheese is incredible. I am so used to NYC Pizza, I would of thought that a replacement is impossible. This is one of the nicest pizzas in West Philly. read more

I will go all in and claim this to be the best pizza I have had in Philly. Everything else on the menu is pretty solid too. Good selection of beers. They have a frequent fat boy punch card for free pies ... That's awesome. Try it. read more

While I was in Philadelphia I stayed in West Philly and ordered hot wings and french fries through grub-hub. I have to say this place has the best hot wings known to man. I'm from New York where the food is almost always good so it takes a lot for me to give a place five stars but this establishment definitely deserves it. Anyone looking for a good takeout place for a night in with the girls or guys, I suggest ordering from here. I haven't tried anything else here but I would say if they could make kick ass hot wings, they probably make everything else good here. read more

I'm giving this place 4 stars because I haven't tried their pizza yet, and you cant accurately rate a pizza place w/o including their pizza quality. Anyway, I got a chicken cheese steak, and it was great...Actually, REALLY great... I'm from a few hours north of philly, and this was my first taste of a "philly steak"... (even though it was chicken and it wasnt from one of the big ones)... The chicken was great...not to thinly sliced, but not just chopped breast, it was just really good... They also have a decent bottle selection, I stick to the 40's to avoid the high prices of the 6-packs. read more

This is my top choice for lunch in this 'hood. I've been here many times now but still haven't had the pizza because everything else is so good. That would include the best chicken cheesesteak in the area, made with huge chunks of breast meat not the thin-sliced shavings at most other places. Great pizza steak, chicken souvlaki, hoagies and club sandwiches. You cannot beat the club sandwich combo deal: the sandwiches are huge, the cole slaw actually rocks and you get a bag of chips -- all for under $6! That's less than a fancy cup of coffee! Toss in the wide selection of beers (from 40s to micros/imports), the quick turnaround time and the 10-punch card for the free pizza, and I can't think of another pizza/sub shop that compares. read more

Well, this review is long over due. Just some background info about myself, I like to think I'm a wing-aficionado. And I can absolutely say with confidence that Colonial has the TOP WINGS in the city. I've eaten wings from pretty much all over, and nothing beats Colonial's bbq wings. They are meaty, nice size, and most importantly, the bbq sauce is directly on point. Also, Telly (the owner) is a stand up guy. We have a good rapport. Get this, he even recognizes my phone number when I call in. BEWARE- dont order online. The website charges extra for menu items plus an additional online order fee. I wasn't aware of this until it was brought to my attention by someone at the restaurant. Telly confirmed that the prices were higher and that he didn't understand why ppl wouldn't call and place the orders to save themselves a few bucks. Cheese Steak: Colonial takes the lead over Greek Lady (another fav place of mine to get a classic Philly Cheese Steak (PCS). My order is fairly normal for a guy who was raised here: Chicken CK, black pepper, ketchup, mayo, mustard, fried onion, and toasted roll (emphasis added). The toasted roll just sets it all off. I always get an order of onion rings-or cheese onion rings when I've run a few extra miles at the gym that day. Simply put, there's nothing more I can say other than I'm glad to have found my default restaurant for those days/nights after work and I'm in the mood for something flavorful and a wonderful staff. Disclaimer: I've lived in the surrounding neighborhood almost all of my life. I have been through numerous owner/management changes. Telly is definitely the best owner I've experienced and he genuinely cares about his brand and reputation. read more

If you want an average slice of pizza and a soda for a pretty standard price come here. Good service and kind guy working so always appreciate that read more

Best ever.. We have been eating from there since November 2019 and never a disappointing meal. Food always fresh, Hot and so so good. No matter what we order we are happy. The staff is always friendly and wonderful. The folks @ 3930 read more

Colonial Pizza is now under new ownership. I found out the hard way this evening when I went to pick up my pizza. I expected my card to be stamped when I paid for my purchase. (Buy 10 pizzas, get one free.) This is one of the reasons I go there. There are several stamps on my current card. When I asked the man (whom I did not recognize) to stamp the card, he said, "We don't do that anymore. New ownership." I told him that this is one of the reasons I had been coming to their place, and I already had stamps on it. Also, I saw some of the same employees there and pointed them out to him. He still refused. I told him that he should honor Colonial's commitments and that this kind of thing would be bad for his business. It might under be new ownership, but if Colonial wants to keep the old customers, they should honor their commitments. The pizza was okay, but I'm not sure I'll go back. read more

Menu has a wide variety including Italian items and wings and fries. Everything we tried was great! Friendly staff too. Mostly for carryout but there are a few tables. Looking forward to coming back next time we are in this area. read more

Pizza was excellent. Should have ordered a larger pie. lol. Ordered on a Saturday evening and the wait time was short!
