Really cool ambiance. Found this place in Lonely Planet's Eastern USA book. GPS took us through nostalgic neighborhoods. It's located in the middle of an older section of Scranton. Had to wait a while, but it was worth it! Very good pizza! Be sure you call and order in advance! read more

Everything! I've been coming here since I was a kid. Literally nothing has changed and that's a good thing. I love the little music jukeboxes that they have. It's so nostalgic. The square pizza is my favorite. It doesn't even need anything extra because it's just perfect the way it is. I like that they burn the top of the cheese. That's my favorite part. It's always super clean. Everybody's always super friendly. And the price is great! Worth every penny. This pizza never lasts in my house , And they are definitely in my top 3 in the area. read more

If you've ever binge watched "The Office" you know that they portrait the Scranton Pizza situation to be in a category all by itself. And if you're like me and actually tried the local Pizza here then you know that's definitely the case. Maroni's is an excellent example of this point in which I'm trying to make. With their unique one-of-a kind style Yellow Cheddar Cheese Square Pizza it's pretty undeniably obvious that "we're not in Jerzey anymore", Lol.    While I do have an open mind, I can honestly say that at first glance I thought this was probably gonna be the worst slice I ever put in my mouth, but it actually made me literally eat my words. Holy Smokes, this Pizza is Freakin Delicious!! Whoever invented this is an Outright Pizza Genius!! With it's light Saucy Tomato Flavor and it's Yellow Tangy Cheese with the Crispy Charred Edges it kinda reminds me of a Grilled Cheese Sandwich that's been dipped in Tomato Soup. And who in their right mind doesn't LUV that combination? Rhetorical of course, Lol. Long story short, if you ever find yourself in the Scranton area, you have to try Maroni's "Old Forge Style" Pizza. I think you'll agree that it's definitely 100 percent in a category all by itself. Come And Get Your Munch On!! read more

Maroni's Pizza House - Shake Hands with Maroni's "Old Forge Style" Pizza - Saucy Crispy Tangy Yellow Cheddar Cheesy Deliciousness!! - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

I've tried dozens and dozens of pizza in NEPA for 35 years. Maronis is my favorite for many reasons. It's not a NY pie. It's not Old Forge. But their round plain with extra cheese is creamy and delicious. Their square with pepperoni is fantastic. This is where I tell people to go in NEPA everytime. read more

I'm from Old Forge aka pizza capital. Well Maronis is by far the best pizza ever. Sorry Old Forge!

I have absolutely loved the pizza here since i was a little girl but recently on multiple occurrences of ordering I have waited 45 minutes to an entire hour later after they told me the food would be ready. Tonight I called at 5:00 and I was told 1 hour to an hour and a half I arrived at 6:30 and I am still standing in here at 7:00pm waiting on an order. The pizza is amazing but the wait is awful. If i'm gonna have to wait 2 hours for food state that on the phone when I place my order. read more

The absolute best pizza outside of New York. Reminds me of the homemade pizzas mom made when we were growing up. Same type of thickness in a crust yet thin enough to fold and hold while the mozzarella cheese strings down for that extra little bit of cheese we always want to eat from the other slices. The sauce is sassy and sweet, just perfect with only the 2 toppings on a crust. Xtra cheese & Sauce! Yummy read more

If you never heard of Maroni's Pizza you're missing out! Staple of West Scranton. The pizza is great, and steak and cheese and Italian hoagies are divine!! Friendly staff! read more

Pizza House is a totally right part of the name for Maroni's as this is indeed a house in the middle of a neighborhood like they have next door neighbors I found this whole location to be quite interesting as this is just something you don't always see. So on with the pizza! Of the options I went with a Square with pepperoni and onions my favorite it was ready at the promised time which was perfect as I was just passing through here. We took our pizza to a park and ate it the pizza was interesting as well but yummy all to it's own as the cheese was something like I've never had before it was like a liquid cheese mixed with mozzarella but still good in it's own unique way! The pepperoni was yummy and had a decent amount of them all over the square pie making for almost some in every bite. The only short fall here was the crust as it wasn't the best I've had but that interesting cheese sauce made up for it as I dunno I just kinda was like totally into it! read more

Best Homemade Meatball Sub on the planet. Trust me order it. And you are welcome for the advice.

This pizza didn't look as good as it actually tasted. I asked for extra sauce and couldn't see it but could definitely taste that and the unique cheesiness. The service was also great they called me in less time quoted to pick up the pie. The prices are very reasonable too. The only reason why they lose a star is because pepperoni was accidentally placed on two slices and that could've been a horrible day had we not noticed it prior to eating. read more

Had to throw out because it's literally a grilled cheese sandwich on pita bread. I ate two slices hoping I'd like it, but I honestly don't, I don't like grilled cheese so out it goes. There's no sauce, just a flat bread grilled cheese sandwich pretending to be a pizza. Meatballs were good, the only thing that resembled pizza I guess. Made a Red Barons personal pizza and added the salvaged meatballs. I'd give it a zero, but the topping was good. Never again. read more

We waited for 70 minutes for our pizza but it was worth it. We ordered a square half pepperoni half sausage. The pizza was ready when we arrived, we had take out. The pepperoni and sausage were tasty unlike many establishments in the area. The crust was cooked to perfection. read more

Made a stop here as we were driving thru PA based on the many positive reviews. Had a steak and cheese hoagie and a six cut sausage and peppers pizza. Both were great. However, the pizza was fantastic. The way the sauce and cheese were melted together on top was so unique and so tasty. Highly recommend. Service was very friendly. read more

I ABSOLUTELY LIVE Moroni's pizza. I HAVE BEEN EATING HERE SINCE I was little. Now 3 generations later I still enjoy this hometown staple.I moved away 15yrs ago however, visit Scranton at least 2/3 times a year and I always make sure we have pizza night with Moroni's.I even order trays to take back home... I just love it read more

Maroni's Pizza House - 1/2 pepperoni and sausage 1/2 plain - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

A must-do when I visit Scranton! Iconic! Called in an order of 8trays and they were ready pretty quick. Staff is awesome!

We were looking for a local pizza place (we aren't from Scranton) after doing the local Buddy Walk on a Sunday afternoon. When we walked in, the place was empty but the staff behind the counter was very busy at work, so we figured they did a pretty good take out business. We sat in the very chilly, very outdated dining room. I'm guessing they don't get many people who dine-in. The menu is very small, they offer pizza (square and round) and some subs. We ordered a round with sausage and pepperoni and a second round with half plain and half onion and sausage. It was brought out in a timely manner and was very hot. The cheese was very soupy and we had to let it cool a bit so the entire top didn't slip off when taking a piece. We didn't care for it at all. It just wasn't for us. The cheese is an American cheese mixed with sauce and like I said, it had a very soupy consistency. They did have a steady stream of folks coming in for take out so obviously it's for some people! read more

A Scranton staple for great pizza. Get a little more sauce on the pizza and it sets it off great, especially the pepperoni

Great local pizza joint serving old forge style pizza. Was our first intro to this style and we loved it! Sauce was outstanding, little sweet which we like. Got one 1/2 blend cheese 1/2 moz. 1 kid loved the blend, other loved the moz. We enjoyed both but actually preferred the moz. Use real moz, not the fake plastic kind. Very cheesy, couldnt stop eating it! Crust is also very light and crisp on the bottom, not nearly as heavy as regular thick crust. Also ordered a pepperoni, sausage and mushroom with blend which was our fav! Sausage is homemade and prob the BEST sausage we've ever had on a pizza! Pepperonis were also thick and really good. Quality ingredients, great service, pies came out in 25 mins from call in. Bonus they have RC cola!! Def recommend! read more

If you like your pizza with Bulgur and BALONEY Then honestly your pizza fave is a PHONY But if you like greasy cheese and PEPPERONI Then you need to get right down to MARONI If you're getting a little bit BONY And you're sick of pizzerias named Gino and TONY And if you wanna be more stuffed than a CALZONE Get yourself here, come down to MARONI Ginuwine eats here then rides his PONY The Ute loved it, so did Apache and SHOSHONE This is where to spend all your ALIMONY Get yourself down, right now, to MARONI Forget your Kraft boxed day-glo MACARONI Forget calorie counting and that SANCTIMONY Listen to my expert TESTIMONY The best pizza in the region is at MARONI You wanna get joined in MATRIMONY? You wanna get pizza for your CEREMONY? You want some yummy slices with your CANNELONI? Get yourself here, right now, to MARONI Only Moronis don't love Maroni's. A special place for me because I took the love of my life here 10 years ago when on tour in Eastern PA, and she loved it, and befriended the owner. 10 years later, I took her back here, and she remembered it, and loved the pizza just as much, even though he didn't remember her. What to get: Slices of pizza for a dollar! And they're so so so so good. What not to get: Put off by how ancient Scranton, or this place, is. Named after the band Maroni 5, their lead singer invented this pizza before he became famous singing about Payphones, Jagger, and shooting his girl and her secret lover because, well, he "had to." Half of his tattoos are actually of this pizza. You learn something new every day. One of the most unique and delicious pizzerias in the whole nation. You can't get much better than this place. Absolutely delicious cheap squares of Scranton style (aka Old Forge style) savoury salty tomato-heavy rich Pizza which will give you a pizzagasm if you like real homemade style All American Pizza (made with American cheese rather than Mozz, giving it a very unique taste that is peculiar and native to this region). Nobody else makes it as good as Maroni. If you don't give them 5 stars, I can't with you. They've been here for a long long time (kinda like your mother at my place) and you can see why. The owner is a really good guy, even though employees sometimes don't get along with each other. Definitely an old-time classic, with emphasis on old, much like most of Scranton, really. They're still selling slices for under a dollar - which is insane considering how good they taste. Yes they are small, but come on, so is your boyfriend. When you see how busy and popular they are, there's no doubt that Maroni is the pizza favourite of the region, and it's a crime and an absolute travesty that there are not more reviews for this little Scranton gem on the back streets of this timelessly old haunted northeastern Pennsylvania city. If you only eat one thing in the region, it should be Maroni's Pizza. If you get the second thing from Coney Island of Scranton but this is by far the winner for this District. And by the way, if you give this delicious legend, by far the best version of this local specialty, competing against all the chains and trendy suburban places and lasting the test of time, less than a 4 star rating? You're Yelping it wrong. Foolish Yelpers often dismiss this COLDLY With words that are dumb and stares so STONY But there's no way to try this pizza REMOTELY So get yourself over and try MARONI If you're really hungry and feeling LONELY If your wife or hubby is just your TROPHY If your local slices taste too HOMELY Come right down and try MARONI Forget the local burgers, but do try a CONEY They speed over here like Axel FOLEY Let that pizza in like you're a bad GOALIE Because no other slice is better than MARONI So listen up, and listen CLOSELY I'm the best Pizza expert on here, MOSTLY Go where no Yelper has gone before, BOLDLY Come and try the slices from MARONI WHAT read more

Delicious pizza, it's my favorite! I have a mobility problem so they bring it to my car. The service is great!

World's best pizza. I've been coming here since I was a kid. I now live in NC but anytime I'm within 2 hours I make a trek up to South Side and I get multiple trays. Always square, always with just pepperoni. Please don't ever close. read more

We love getting take out, my boy love this place, on busy school nights it's nice to have a break.

I grew up on this pizza :). I think it's the best in the area! Puts old forge style to shame ;)

This is "Old Forge" style pizza in Scranton!!! Crust was just a bit crisper and cheese combo a bit different than Old Forge but nonetheless it was AMAZING!!!! Perfect combo of sauce and cheese!!!!Very much old school inside with RC sodas and mini juke boxes at each table- brought me back to childhood! Service was excellent. Counter had a steady stream of customers for takeout. Staff was all friendly and seemed to know many of the takeout customers! read more

This is still the best pizza around. I travel across country to visit my family and Maronis is a must stop spot

Best pizza in Scranton. Pepperoni and Sausage are delicious. Always hot and never disappointed with the service.

Really great pizza -- square or round, a true local cult classic BUT these NEW, limited hours ARE RIDICULOUS!!! Close at 7:30? They are Crazy! Is it not known how many people are still at work??? Not for nothing, but I do recall later hours - - placing an order at 9:30 and picking it up 15 minutes later. Cash is still cash for two more hours. And as an aside for anyone complaining about the cold interior, think about working next to those huge ovens. As for the walls, they are decorated with history and family and community. Seriously, I am sure 7:30 close lost a portion of patronage; I really hope this is reconsidered. Suppose these hours affect the rush? read more

We love their pizza. That's not all, they make the best hoagies full of meat. My favorite is the cheese steak hoagie. The best..

We had a horrible experience picking up pizza here. We were told that we had to wait an hour and 45 minutes so we arrived at the time our pizza was supposed to be ready. We were told "just a few minutes." We then waited over 30 minutes for our pizza and saw multiple people come and pick up pizza who had arrived after us and ordered around a similar time. We will never order from this pizza place during Lent again. After 50 years of going to this place and growing up around the corner, we were disgusted with our treatment tonight. They need to figure out a functioning system. read more

I have been eating Maroni's pizza for 60 years. They are a family business that has always served a very good, quality pizza or hoagie. When our kids come home to visit or we go to visit them, it's always, "Will you get Maroni's pizza?" I will be ordering pizza today!! read more

Maroni's is truly a one-of-a-kind pizza. I love the spicy sauce they use, that oh so unique cheese blend that is creamy, gooey, and with some browning on top. The sausage and pepperoni they use is top-notch when it comes to pizza toppings. You really can't go wrong.. I usually order mine well done, and a lighter on the sauce. I don't like my pizza too saucy, but each time I have ordered this combination, it has been worth it. I live down south now, but whenever I visit good ol' NEPA, I always stop at Maroni's. read more
