Stopped by Half Full in Lewes and had a solid experience overall. The place was packed, which is always a good sign. The pizza was definitely the highlight -- really well done and flavorful. Worth ordering if you're going. The setup is casual: you order at the counter and the food is brought to your table, which keeps things moving even when it's busy. A couple things to note -- they only offer canned cocktails, which may not be for everyone, and it felt a bit overpriced for what you get. That said, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the staff was really nice and the atmosphere was lively.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good spot for a casual bite, especially if you're in the mood for pizza, salad and wine. read more

You order at the bar and they send you back with the drinks. A server will bring your food out and will help clean up. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a cute spot with about 6 tables inside and a few tables outside with high chairs. There's window seating and one booth in the back.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have 2 gender inclusive restrooms.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The garden salad with the champagne vinaigrette was delicious! We split it 3 ways and it was the perfect side portion. We all enjoyed our pizzas. The artichokes were the only part that wasn't as enjoyable as a bunch of them were pretty fibrous, perhaps the choke parts not fully cooked or removed. read more

Always delicious. Pizzas are wood fired, six pieces, rectangular and tasty. My current two favorites include the Spicy Meatball and Spinach Salad. I also enjoy the house salad. You can get a decent bottle of wine & have a nice meal inside or on their covered patio. Good service but it's popular so you may have to wait for a table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a fairly small restaurant and you order at the counter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's loud if it is busy but a cozy spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] *TIP - currently on Wednesday you get a free pizza if you buy a bottle of wine. read more

We have visited Lewes almost every summer since 2009 and we have loved Half Full. It's always a stop for us but this year, the pizza crust dough has changed. It's no longer thicker like pizza crust but more like a thicker flatbread with a cracker texture. The pizza is still good but not as good with the new dough recipe. We still love the pizza choices and the wonderful wines but the pizza is definitely a little "less than" what it used to be. We still recommend it though. read more

Was in the mood for pizza so decided to try this place for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. The pizza is amazing and has some of the best cheese I've had on a pie. The prices aren't too bad given the area. Anticipate crowding or inability to get in during the summer time as the building is very small and seating is limited. read more

Overall I was very impressed with Half Full and would definitely like to make return visits. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Came by off season and was able to get two seats at the window.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Sitting is self served and you order at the counter, but servers bring food and refills if needed. Ordered the spinach pizza, dubliner pizza, kale salad, and tap red and white wine. Very good pours of the wine. White wine was better than the red but overall both were good. Salad came first and my wife wasnt feeling it, but I thought it was very good. Pizzas came out at a good pace and both were amazing. My wife generally doesnt like pizza with veggies but loved this one. Prices were reasonable for the time and place. We were able to get seats right when we came in, but definitely on season or better weather would be a wait. Did not get dessert but they did have some that looked OK. Overall I highly recommend. I would somewhat argue its not pizza and is more or s thicker flatbread, but either way was very good. read more

what a disappointment! paid $22 for their chicken pesto pizza on cauliflower crust and they didn't put a single piece of chicken. insane!!!! such a rip off. also the man who answered the phone was sassy and hit us with a "you know you actually have to talk into the phone, buddy." tomato was cut soooooo chunky and it was literally like an entire tomato. read more

Delicious pizza--generous size topped with quality ingredients. We love the artichoke and pepperoni pizzas. Have enjoyed takeout and eat-in. The service is ALWAYS extremely friendly and informative. We have been to Lewes three times this year and we have to go to Half Full every time. Even when it is hopping (and it has been every time), it's worth any kind of wait. Highly recommend. read more

In the heart of downtown Lewes, Half Full is known for unique gourmet handmade pizzas, sweet treats, and a great selection of beer and wine. There are so many options to choose from on the menu. It's a small restaurant, and it does get busy during the summer months, but the food and drinks are worth the wait. It's a casual dining experience with friendly staff! If you are looking for a brick oven pizza or a quaint little restaurant to take your significant other, then this is the place for you! You won't be disappointed! read more

They were so accommodating. It started to rain and they fit us in for a nice charcuterie board and pizza.

Outstanding pizza & salads!! Such a great atmosphere and wine offerings are wonderful to pair with. We soooo look forward to eating here when we're in town-- consistently great food & chill vibe. But be sure to get there right when they open at 4pm-- by 4:08pm today the place was literally packed!! So nice that they expanded and opened the outdoor patio cuz this place is popular!! read more

I love this place. I have come here for the past 3 summers with my friends who live in town and it is my only request! My favorite is the crab corn pizza. This time I also had the Dublin pork and the goat cheese and artichoke pizzas. All three were perfection. I love the size of the pizzas, the crust, and the cute little boards they come out on. We sat outside as the location is in the adorable downtown. The service is always great and the drinks are good too! I can't wait to come back next summer for more crab corn read more

Cute place, but unfriendly , they have pizza and sandwiches, I would try Harbor or the oyster bar across the street.

I love this pizza! The atmosphere is comforting, the staff are the best, and the food and wine selection is beyond compare! ...and get the artichoke goat cheese pizza and add soppressata to it. Perfect! read more

What a place! Right on the main shopping street in downtown Lewes. My wife and I stopped by on our little Staycation in DE and I'm very glad we stopped in! The pizza was absolutely delicious! Super friendly staff. Great atmosphere! The way the bar works is a little different/quirky since you pretty much grab your drinks from the front counter/bar. Dessert was worth it! 100% would come back time and time again! read more

Pizza was delicious! We ordered 6-7 different pizzas, and they were all really great! Even a simple cheese pizza was really tasty! A little bit of an interesting concept, you get seated, then go up to the bar to put in your order. The food came quickly, and it was very hot and fresh tasting. It is a small place, with outdoor seating, but even with 8 of us on a Saturday night we were seated quickly (30 minutes) and there are shops along the street to browse while you wait! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was good. We liked the outdoor seating and the lively crowd.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was OK, although it took longer than we would like to order our pizzas at the counter. But the pizza is barely one step beyond frozen pizza. Just not good. read more

Artisan pizza outdoors with a variety of cold cider and beer; great afternoon snack in Lewes. The cold board had several types of antipasto; we would have liked another cheese and another salami. The brisket and blue thin pizza was very easy to eat but again it could have had more brisket and more blue and less of whatever other cheese they used. The roasted tomato soup was very good. The food service was okay but we had to go inside to the bar when we wanted another drink. We were 4 and overall we enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it, but we do not feel it earned 5 stars. read more

I came to lewes for a solo trip with me and my dog. The service and food was amazing. The pizza was delicious and my dog enjoyed the meatball too. The staff was super accommodating.

After an evening Lighthouse Cruise we came into town for a bite to eat. As usual long wait times at Agave and Kindle so on a whim I stuck my head in Half Full. Luckily a high hat was open and we grabbed a seat. This was going to be our first visit and man, it did not disappoint!! The spicy meatball pie was AWESOME!!! A couple of cold beers and the evening ended on a high note!! Can't wait to get back to try some of the other pies on the menu. Well done!!! read more

We had a wonderful experience (again!) at Half Full. The pizzas are the best in the area, the ambience is fun, and the staff is super friendly and competent! Kudos to Tyler and Terri and to the kitchen staff! Thank you! read more

Service is a 5 and it's a great setup to bring dogs even in the winter months with heated patio. Pizza is a flatbread style which I'm not a fan of, but if that's your kind of pizza, this is a good place to check out. A lot of gourmet style flatbreads. read more

Absolutely the best craft pizza around! Fresh, great mix of tastes!!! Quaint and cozy. Love talking to other patrons as they as well as staff are very friendly!!! Love the Lewes vibe there read more

Great place to grab some pizza in a cool dining atmosphere! It does get busy in the summers since it's a small place, but you can grab a drink while you wait. Only suggestion is it could be even better if they offered more vegetarian pizza options read more

Half Full - Pizza Near Me - Lewes, Delaware

Perfection pure and simple! When I go around town to hot restaurants, they are all pretty noisy, for a lot of reasons, I think. I guess people feel the sound conveys a sense of vibrancy and energy, when they decide whether to wait an hr or so for a table. But here's the thing: Loud restaurants aren't just irksome, they dampen the vibe I feel when I eat. We did not have to say. What did you say?" "Can you repeat that?" and "It's so loud in here" are now phrases as common as "Can I take your order?" I understand, no one wants to walk into a mausoleum/ crypt to eat and this place feels alive and vibrant without all the other noisy stuff. There was even a family next to us with 2 children and we did not hear them once except when the child had a mishap as they were leaving. This place has great acoustics and is designed to absorb the icky annoying sounds. We were looking for a table for 4 when we arrived and had been told at other places the wait was an hour or so and some with 45 minutes. I was starving and cold and we got lucky and go in here in less than 5 minutes. Timing is everything. We had the Mushroom Kale pizza (8x12 inches) for $12 it had Tuscan kale, Kennett square portabella mushrooms that tasted spectacular to me, asiago, balsamic glaze, basil pesto sauce. (Look it up to see what Kennett square famous as the "Mushrooms Capital of the World" Check out the pictures and yes, it was the best pizza I have had in awhile. The crust is thin and cooked to perfection on parchment paper. It was topped with whole milk mozzarella cheese. It provided enough for two hungry people. The house salad for $7 was a steal. It had baby greens, crumbled goat and sheep's milk feta with diced tomatoes, and lots of big artichokes hearts, roasted red peppers with a soft delicious creamy house dressing that was not over powering. (I typically don't like creamy dressings, but this was very delicious and light tasting with a little bit of heat /spice to it.) ! For dessert try the optimist bar, it tastes like a Blondie bar. Yummy And here's the thing the service was outstanding, very responsive and attentive! From the hostess to the waitress who brought out our food after we placed the order at the counter where we picked up our beers. Bravo Half Full! One last thing...they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, so I guess you and I will have to visit their sister restaurants stripperbites dot com and kindlerestaurant dot com and it seems like on Wednesday they have specials, so go to their restaurant website to find out what it is (April 2018) buy a bottle of wine, get a FREE pizza.very cool of 'em (extra toppings not included) read more

What a joke! I waited 20 minutes for a table. I was waiting outside but somehow my phone silenced their call. I walked in ready to be seated *1 minute*after they called me, and they had given away my table that I had waited for to someone that just had walked in! The host/waitress was very rude to me and I'm extremely disappointed. Maybe it was because I was a single woman looking to dine, and she wanted a larger table. I will never come back, and I will encourage my family who vacations here regularly to avoid this establishment. read more

Half Full served our needs perfectly on a sunny November Saturday. After morning of trekking around Hentalopen State Park, we wandered into town for a 1:00 lunch. Half Full has a pretty simple menu...pizza, salads, and a solid beer and wine selection. We went simple...the American salad, Sopispacha (sp.) pizza (ham, sausage) and water. Salad was good, if not a little heavy on the dressing- and the pizza was perfect for two. Interior seating is limited to about 40 seats, and on both nights in town, it was packed with humanity and laughter. Service and delivery were great. This place is an absolute winner in the heart of Lewes. read more

Very different concept. You sit where you'd like and when you're ready to order, you walk up to place your order. Some may not find this appealing, but I liked the concept very much. Their menu is very particular. I had the Gouda Chicken pizza and it was extremely good. I would definitely have food from this place many times again. The service was awesome! read more
