I've admired the stone part of the building, driving by, and stopped in today with our grandsons at their recommendation. When we mentioned preferring pizza with a thin crust, we were told their usual pies were that way but they could, for us, make it thinner still. We said not to bother-- and commented that, in hundreds of pizza joints, here and over there, we never had the option. Excellent pizzas, served in the quirky old dining room (built 1787). A memorable visit. read more

Nicola's Pizza - Piece of pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

I know this may cause a massive event for this wonderful small pizza place, but they have some pretty fantastic off the menu options. I would say that go there and ask him for what they have off the menu and discover what opportunities you have. It's like a treat every single time you go. This past week we had some fantastic off the menu things that I don't want to share because fact of the matter is, they may not want to make it a mass production. I would say go and be surprised. Yes, it's all about pizza and beyond. read more

Nicola's Pizza - Almost finished with the slices - Pizza Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

I love Nicolas and have for many years. Especially in the winter when it's cold enough to sit by their ancient fireplace. The pizza sauce is just right on seasoning. Not too salty. Not too much sugar. I'm keen on their cheese steak and I'll drive here just for one. Succulent. Perfectly made. I don't live anywhere near and this is worth the journey. read more

Nicola's Pizza - The fire! - Pizza Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

35 dollars for a small vegetable pizza ?! I thought it was a mistake. The pizza was soggy . Lesson learned.

Holy cow. Amazingly delicious. We got a couple of slices and split a meatball parm. The pizza crust was crisp and the sauce was sweet without a trace of cloying acidity. The meatballs were savory and the bread was light & toasted to perfection. It's a small place - wouldn't recommend if you have kids who can't sit and behave in a quiet setting. The building itself has some fascinating historical aspects and wish we could've learned more. Overall - would absolutely recommend and would absolutely go back. read more

Its pretty good, only complaint is if your get onions they are huge pieces, aside from that good luck finding a better pizza within 5 miles. Not saying it as a bad thing. Nicolas is usually very good. read more

Surprisingly good pizza! We ordered a margarita pizza and it was ready within 10-15 mins. No frills very in and out / pick up type restaurant. Crust was good, crunchy enough not too thick but still had some decent chew, tomato sauce was good, cheese was melty but distribution was off in some places. Would consider ordering here again if I needed a pizza quickly. They do not deliver farther than Lambertville, maybe New Hope, as an FYI! read more

I've experienced a lot of different pizzas in my almost-50 years... pizza is kind of my thing. Having read the reviews here, Nicola's went onto my bucket list. I made a special trip there to try it out, thinking it would be good. I'm not one to use superlatives (best, greatest, worst) when I describe things. So when I say this was the worst pizza I ever had (including the Chef Boy-R-D pizza kits my mom used to let me make when I was a kid), I'm telling you it truly was the worst. Nicola's pizza dough was chewy and soggy. The cheese was generous but very runny. Sauce had no flavor. Toppings were too wet and everything just sloshed off the slice, leaving you with a sad soggy piece of pizza crust in one hand next to a wet heap of tasteless cheese & equally tasteless toppings. Blech. They know what they're serving. Did give me a fork & knife to work thru the pizza "slices"? No. Napkins? No. I had to go find utensils and napkins on my own. Throughout my visit, the server seemed annoyed... seemed like they wished they were somewhere else. And I can't blame them. After I started to eat what I bought, I wished I were somewhere else too. I cannot imagine any pizza coming out of here measuring up to the glowing reviews I've read about this place. And I should mention the restaurant is not as big as it looks in the photos here on Yelp. The dining room is quite small, VERY dated, dim, and not very clean looking. While I can now cross this shop off my bucket list, I will say it is memorable in the fact that I definitely won't eat here again. Blech. read more

Pizza was great, had the margarita and the chicken- all fresh ingredients, good service and a nice atmosphere...pizzas came out quickly

This place was great. I totally recommend stopping by and checking them out - and grabbing a slice, calzone, or even a full pie. Their Sicilian pizza pie was delicious, and a must try! Their calzone, we did sausage and ricotta on it, blew us away! The sausage was ground on the fine side, which was perfect for us - we have a Infant learning to eat. The ricotta tho... oh my god. The texture was so incredible. You gotta have one of their calzones!!! We got to chat a little bit with the owners as we sat and ate in their lil dining room area and they were really nice. I wish we had pizza like this back home in Hawaii. Thanks!! read more

This place is the best pizzeria in town! We've been coming to Lambertville and New Hope for years and kept meaning to stop in here but always got too busy. This trip I was COMMITTED to trying it. It kept calling our name. So today we stopped in and my only regret is that we didn't come in sooner! The pizza was 10/10. Perfect amount of fluffiness in the dough, cheese was fresh and delicious, and the sauce was top notch. Sal, the owner, treated us with such kindness and was super friendly and took the time to chat with us. The service was amazing and everyone was very accommodating. The seating area has a very homey, family feel with a fire place and stone walls. This building has a lot of history to it and you can feel the love in its walls. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will be back many times to try the rest of the menu. Highly recommend this place! read more

This place is absolutely amazing. The food was delicious and there is something for everyone. The service was great. And the atmosphere of the restaurant made me feel at home. read more

As a pizza addict, it's fitting to make sure you try every pie in town. Since this place is the closest to my new apartment, of course it was first on my list! I ordered a pie a few months back and really enjoyed it, and came back for some more. To me, the sauce is really important in making that yummy pizza pie, and this is something that Nicolas has down. Since football was on... some wings were ordered too (their Cluck-U wings) which were breaded and crispy. If your in the mood for a delicious slice, head on over to Nicolas. read more

Food use to be good there. Some of the people that work there have bad attitudes. Won't be going back. There are better places to spend your hard earned money at that deserve your business. read more

Stopped in Nicola's today for the first time and ordered their pizza. Their pizza is so good! Not only is their pizza good but the people working there were super nice and I will definitely be ordering here again! read more

The family absolutely adores Nicola's. It's a great small shop. You won't be bowled over by appearances but food is excellent and service is always friendly and welcoming. The dining area is nice and comfy but a little dark. Great for a casual date or family meal. Bathrooms are upstairs which can be a pain for some but the positives out way this. I mean to be honest, that's about the worst thing I can think of, and that's even pushing it. It's a BYOB which we love. Pizza is a NY/ south jersey style. Don't look for Brock oven or coal fired here and that's ok. It's always cooked perfectly. The garlic knots and, I know this sounds weird, French fries and wonderful. I really have a hard time thinking of anything bad about this place. We travel from Philadelphia to go here (a 45 minute drive) and it's worth it. Try it and you'll see, this place is really as good as its Yelp ratings. read more

Oh my gosh, this is an amazing place. Located right across the river from the Bucks County Children's Museum, this is some of the best pizza I've had in a long time. Staff is really friendly. I think good pizza crust is an art in and of itself. If it's too crunchy, it's unpleasant. But you don't wanted to be soggy either. Nicola's got it just right read more

who the fuck charges $57 for two pizzas?? uber eats is cheaper and its delivered to your door. read more

The pizza was great. We bought Buffalo pizza (8 big slices) with 2 cokes; we paid no more than 20 bucks. The place has a parking as well, unlike most places in New Hope. For the price, service and facility were amazing. Although, a little bit unclean, there's is a nice, comfy place to eat inside. And food was excellent, of course. read more

Nicola's Pizza - Inside - Pizza Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

We love this place! The best pizza in the entire area! It has been a few decades since we are back in the area and the food is still as amazing as my husband remembered! We have had the large pizza with sausage, onion and mushroom. The dough was perfectly cooked. The sauce not too overwhelming which allows the ingredients to shine. We also had the buffalo chicken pizza and the plain cheese pizza, they are both on point. We also had the garlic knots. Just a bit crispy on the outside and chewing and soft inside. Perfect afternoon snack. Sal is just the perfect second generation owner who has been faithful to his customers for over 3 decades. This is something we deeply respect as fellow food and beverage business owners. To be on his feet day after day, 10+ hours a day, is a serious commitment. He truly is a pillar to his community who connects generations of memories together for his customers. Bravo! and viva Sal's pizza! read more

Fantastic pizza!! I highly recommend stopping by whether you want to sit down and relax in an intimate, cozy setting or grab a slice to go! The staff is welcoming and attentive and you can't beat the prices for the outstanding quality! We will be back!! read more

Whenever we're in the Lambertville, NJ/New Hope, PA area we head to Nicola's for a slice or two. The people who run it could not be nicer, the pizza is thin crust and delicious and (when we can all dine inside again), the side room is warm & cozy. If you can score a seat at one of the outside tables in the front, the weekend summer traffic can be quite entertaining as well! They have parking available too--a huge plus in that area! read more

Wife and I are New Hope locals. Stopped in and looked into the dining room and there were a couple open tables. Dude who seemed to be the owner told us to hit the bricks because he would not accept our in-dining-room business because he was "too busy". Interesting business model. read more

I must admit that this pizza is consistently amazing and done the right way! Crisp where it needs to be, soft and juicy where required, and always hot and fresh! Well worth the drive from Princeton... read more

Got pizza and eggplant rollatini. Both were very good. Blizzard crust was thin, but not too thin. Just right. Will definitely return.

Best s as nowhere. They are genius'. We go every week as Nd take away enough for a week.

I haven't been here since the pandemic has started, but I've been eating Nicola's Pizza since I was 5. Nicola's is by far my favorite pizzeria I have ever been to(have moved all over North America). read more

We ordered a Buffalo Chicken Pizza and they brought us a regular cheese pizza with chopped up chicken tenders. Not even close to a buffalo chicken pizza. Very disappointing. Will not be ordering from Nicola's again. read more

Nicola's pizza. I have been their so many times and it is always so good. The food is good and it tastes like heaven. I love going their with my family. read more

We are from S Jersey but are in New Hope and Lambertville every six weeks or so. For the past several years I have wanted to try Nicola's and we finally did. We went on a freezing day with a high of 19 and sat by the fire. The girls had homemade chicken soup and our family shared a large pie. Everything was awesome. The pizza crust is amazing. The sauce was just the right amount of sweet and the cheese was perfect. Can't wait to come back! read more

Everytime we're in town always stop in for a couple slices, and they always have a fresh pie in a couple minutes. Nice friendly family run old school pizzeria, best in the area, you should stop by, delicious read more

I can't believe no one's written a review for Nicola's yet! this place is an institution in Lambertville/Bucks County! it's very cozy, housed in a small, and presumably very old, former residence with stone walls and wooden floors... the thin crust pizza has the perfect crisp consistency and hot, savory, toppings(we ordered sausage, I believe, last time)...and the pasta?...incredible! the baked ziti is to die for--they serve it in huge quantities, too! read more

Honestly go to Antonio's up the road. The owner of Nicolas is not a nice person and their pizza is awful. They also won't deliver unless you have a big order. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else read more

Phenomenal garlic knots with super fresh tasting sauce. Great service, very charming ambiance. read more

Worst pizza i've ever tasted. Honestly. The staff conveys the message directly to the customer that they are not happy to be there.

Just ordered takeout. Was so sad I couldn't give less stars for this review. I ordered the cheeses steak roll a pepperoni Stromboli and onion rings. What I got was a cooked sock and and un cooked calzone in place of that order. The onion rings were good. Only reason I'll accept a single star here. Be very aware that if you get takeout from here you may end up with a similar experience. read more

The pizza is flames. No questions asked. Whether you get a pie or slices, they are awesome. The sauce is perfect. No questions asked. The slices are not enormous either...which I personally enjoy. Bottom line, great spot read more
