Lately's - Grab the bagel chips, thinly sliced & whole ingredients with no fillers or preservatives. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hallowell, Maine

New York style pizza has moved to Maine! Lately's is Hallowell's newest rising star in the pizza game. 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. read more

Ordered takeout pizza and it was so good--fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I was hoping for. Would absolutely order again!

food was very good after a long day. very yummy and people were very nice! they also had soap for sale which was funny lol

Finally found some great New York style pizza and I wasn't disappointed. Very crispy, good under carriage and wonderful taste. If you're ever in the neighborhood I suggest you try a slice then order a whole pie. Definitely will be returning in the near future. read more

Recent visit with a friend based on word of mouth and that they sell breakfast sandwiches all day. I had an everything bagel with egg and cheese toasted. The bagel had seasoning on the bottom. It was not a normal bagel, it was more like a roll and I wonder if they are using the same dough for their pizzas. My friend order an everything bagel and cream cheese. It was toasted but the cream cheese was so melted the bagel didn't stay together and very hard to eat. Not to mention the cream cheese was liquid. She took it back and asked for one not toasted. She got that and was very unhappy with it as well. To her credit it didn't look anything like mine. It was hard and obviously not fresh. Server asked and knew that my friend was unhappy the second time as well but didn't nothing in the way of wanting us to give them another try. I also had a coffee and the station is located across from where you stand to order and pay so I was in the way making my coffee. The creamer was not refrigerated and there was no trash can to throw out waste. They also served pizza by the slice as well as a whole one. While we were there two pizzas sat out uncovered on the counter and they were selling slices for 3.50. Not sure why they weren't at least covered. I also heard the owner talking about frozen dough being taken out for orders. That explains the difference in quality. I wanted to like this place but it just doesn't deliver. read more

My husband and I went in to share one slice. (We're pizza snobs from CT). Well. Finally a Maine pizza that is worth talking about and that could rival some CT pizzas! Fresh with crunchy dough, yet still chewy. Sooo good! In fact, we sat down and ordered 2 whole pies to share (see pics). Not too thin, no flop, but still foldable. Bridget was really sweet and the perfect employee. When she got busy with a crowd needing slices, she comped us free iced teas for the wait. Just really good pizzas and excellent (and friendly) customer service. We only get to Maine once a year now, but this will definitely be added to our list of must do's while in Maine. read more

Excellent NY style Pizza! Looking forward to trying the Detroit style, was told it would be on the menu next week. Very friendly service as well. Update, tonight we tried the Detroit pizza And it was absolutely amazing!! read more

This is the spot to go if you are looking for a quick bite especially by the river in downtown Hallowell - the staff is kind, caring and attentive to the needs/wants of customers/the community. The food is delicious - thin crispy crust with a tangy tomato sauce and buffalo milk cheese that will send your tastebuds to heaven. As well as amazing all day breakfast sandwiches, that are the perfect fill for the tummy. Plus everything being homemade is a win in my eyes. Couldn't recommend enough. read more

Best pizza I've had in a long time. My boyfriend said it's exactly what he looks for in a pizza. My family will be back! For some reason it shows that they close at 1pm on the weekends but it's actually 1AM. read more

Stopped by for a bagel, not impressed. Will visit again to try the pizza. Promises to be NY style, so we will see. I want it to be a great place but not sure yet. read more

Been here a few times now and will for sure be going again best pizza I've honestly ever had and the only pizza I have ever eaten the end of the crust usually I leave that in my plate, but not here!! Scrumptious! read more

This is not New York style pizza. Ordered bagels and a pizza. Pizza was over cooked on the bottom. Ordered extra cheese and it looked like no cheese. Not sure it's even mozzarella. Bagels are undercooked and soggy focaccia bread was also not good. read more

Terrific spot to grab a satisfying slice. Their proximity to Easy Street Lounge is a plus. Quick, competent service.

Went here a few weeks ago at night for pizza. Pros: Appreciate the wide selection of both nonalcoholic and alcoholic drinks, neat that you can just get a slice if you just want a snack. 3 notable "cons", the first two are minor. The last one kind of ruined the meal. 1) Though wide drink choice in general, weird no diet choices other than water. 2) We ordered a full pizza. We were told 30 minutes and it was more like 45. 3) We ordered a 3 topping pizza: Sausage, mushrooms, green peppers. The pizza came missing the sausage. We were starving so we ate it so we didn't have to wait another 45. Very strange to have missed that if only 3 toppings. The crust was good, and the sauce was fresh tasting but seemed to be missing Italian seasoning like oregano. I might not have noticed that if the sausage was present to add a little salt. Pretty bland overall. I would have given 1 or 2 stars, but they offered a full comp on the missed topping- only after they rechecked the order to make sure I wasn't lying, I might add. I didn't feel right about that as we did eat the pizza, so we got $3.00 back for the price of the sausage. I will also note this is one of those places that make you tip when you pay up front before you get service. I always tip 20% and this is a rare time I kind of regretted that. Verdict: if you are in Hallowell and want a full pizza, go to Burano's. If you are in a hurry or not very hungry, this is probably an OK place to get a slice where you can see all the toppings are there. read more
