Clean, quick and quirky. Pizzeria Cappelli is a quick stop for late night pizza in the Gayborhood, right in all the action in between Woody's, Franky's and Voyeur. The pizza is EXPENSIVE, 8-9 dollars a slice, but, it's a neighborhood staple and not really a place for a quick lunch. Most of their patrons are coming after the bars, and after a few drinks you're not too concerned about a 10 dollar slice. On the weekend, there's a security guard at the door making sure things run smoothy, and a few guys behind the counter taking people's orders and heating up slices. Momo, who's been there for years, is AWESOME. So fun and friendly. read more

Got 2 slices after Foo Fighters show & neat drinks vintage wine bar. 1 Bacon & Sausage & 1 Spinach Mozz. Perfect & staff was helpful explaining the specialty slices. read more

Honestly I was scared reading the reviews. The pizza didn't look THAT appetizing but it wasn't that bad! The perk of this place is that it's open late. It's probably not somewhere I'd come during the day because there's probably better pizza open, but at night it's fine. I enjoyed the honey barbecue chicken slice. It was actually lowkey good. The cheese slice was ok. I've had better pizza and I've had worse. Again, the pull of this place is that it's open until 4 am. Many places aren't anymore, so I'd say this is a solid late night pick read more

Pizzeria Cappelli - Honey something - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

First time to Philly and found this pizza spot. Loved it so much we went back the 2nd night to get more for a late night snack.

The pizza is great. I'm not sure what the other reviews are referring to. I was here about a year ago in here again and there were great times. read more

The people who work here are extremely rude. I ordered 2 slices of plain pizza which cost $19, and I made a comment to my friend saying "2 slices is $19". After I said this the guy behind the counter verbally assaulted me in front of the entire restaurant screaming at me calling me cheap and cursing at me for this comment. I would never come back to this place the pizza is overpriced and honestly wasn't very good. read more

Thanks to the man who was opening for the night who recommended a place down the street as we were looking to dine-in and eat and Cappelli's is take out only. It was just my wife and I at the moment, and so on the way back to our hotel we stopped in and bought a couple slices for our son as a thank you for recommending a different sit-down place. My son loved the pizza and said if we are back in the area, we should stop by again. read more

Delicious! Service is fantastic! Don't forget to tip your servers and give them love. The vibe in there is fantastic as well! read more

Pizzeria Cappelli - Only the best pizza server there is- and the pizza was pretty bomb too! Check this place out if you want fresh tasty pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Gave us honey garlic wings when it was off the menu and literally 2am. Amazing freaking people gave us a free bottle of water too. ICE cold. Wings were absolutely scrumptious. 10000/10 customer service. read more

Yaa always be cautious if you don't see any prices or menus posted in a pizza shop...stopped by for a late night slice and got charged $14 for a slice of pizza that wasn't even good!!! Definitely learned my lesson...won't be coming back read more

We stopped here for late night/early morning eats after a concert! This is a perfect spot if you're out and looking for something quick...and it was surprisingly good!! Shoutout to MOE! He was absolutely amazing and friendly. We got a chance to chat and he made some pizza fresh for us. Excellent customer service, even at 1am. There was a steady stream of customers in and out, and it felt safe to eat in and right outside the restaurant. Thanks again Moe!!! read more

honestly when you're drunk, anything hits. this pizza hits. people who complain about the price can go home and make their own pizza from scratch at 2am. also they were nice! read more

$9 a slice for average pizza... nope. Who is paying this? I don't understand. Just okay pizza for really a lot of money read more

$18 for 2 slices and they don't even tell you the prices on anything. Got charged $1 for a box too. This place should be ashamed of themselves because they openly advertise that it is a queer establishment by calling it the "Homo Hut" so they exploit the drunk and queer people by making them pay overpriced cold pizza. I get that this place is where drunk people come and get food after a night out and they don't care about paying however much but still, they shouldn't even be exploiting them in the first place! Total scam. Even when I'm hammered I know I shouldn't be paying almost $10 a slice. I'll take my ass to Wishbone right across the street. read more

This place is a bunch of scam artist POS people. I ordered a piece of pizza and a drink and never received the drink. I requested the drink about 5 mins later when I received my pizza and told I was a fraud and never paid for it and that I was trying to steal from this shit company. Keep your bs fraud tactics to yourself and stop accusing people of crimes when yall are just trying to make extra money for your half ass failing business. read more

Pizza was not up to par @ all.The Spinache Panzaaretti was very good. Service was very good.. read more

Was looking for a late night snack when we found this place was still open, so we grabbed 4 slices. My personal favorite was the white slice, though the Buffalo chicken wasn't bad either. I wasn't a huge fan of the macaroni or pizza slices. Was also pretty expensive, but service was quick and good. It's not a bad option, but seems to really be the only option. read more

this was literally the worst pizza I've ever had when considering quality, quantity, and price. What makes the pizza so insulting is the price 3 slicesof their pizza is so expensive that I asked the guy twice if he charged me properly and I'm from Manhattan! even if it was cheap, it would've still been disgusting. It was soggy with cheap cheese and bizarre tasting red sauce. The sausage was so bad it tasted like a cheap breakfast sausage and not an Italian sausage. It's a shame this place takes completed advantage of its location across from Woody's and chooses to rip off the local customers. Wishbone, right across the street, is the opposite type of business in my opinion with excellent quality food and fair prices. read more

Tiny place take out only. I thought it was called "Homo Hut" the pizza I had.. a reheated slice was BoomB. As in sooo good. Thin crust perfection. Dough was perfect tomato, ricotta.. my only complaint is every time I tried to go back. It was closed. It has funny hours. Maybe it's only open evenings.. check to see if they're open and if they are thank me later. read more

I wouldn't order from here again. I don't like the sauce and forget about the soda... ****Soda is extremely expensive. read more

Insanely expensive!!! Other reviews mention criminal, and they're right. You've even got people coming from NYC telling you you're pizza is crazy expensive! Stop gouging and taking advantage of drunk people and the community! You could surely still make money hand over fist without these astronomical prices. I've been coming here since before it re-opened a decade ago. Gay Pizza saved me many a night after a night out and being open as late as they are. I'd happily grab 3-4 different slices whenever I came in. In the last few years I started noticing the bill approaching $40 every time. huh??? looking back at reviews pre-COVID I saw prices more what I was expecting, $6 for a specialty slice, still high but tolerable. Nearly $10 for a slice now is just ridiculous. Dont support greedy, price-gouging business owners like this. read more

Before diving into this 2 star review, please understand that this was not my first visit to Pizzeria Cappelli aka "Gay Pizza". The only positive side of this establishment is that it's open late, and I mean very late. The space inside is tiny and can get packed in seconds with little wiggle room. The pizza itself is nothing to brag about. The pizza is made for a night out drinking, in fact, it's the Jack in the Box of pizza. If you want ANYTHING at all in your stomach after a night out....this is your place. Anything different? go somewhere else! There are plenty of other places in the city that will do you better!! read more

$9.25 per slice of pizza is criminal pricing!! I don't give a damn that they are open late and located in the gayborhood. It's a reheat slice shop. The pizza itself was okay enough but every bite made me angry thinking that it was almost $1.15 per bite. read more

Yeah the pizza here is both below average taste and extremely price gouged to prey on drunk people. $8-10 per slice is insane, just walk out instead of even wasting your money. The only redeeming quality is it being open late. This place would've gone out of business if 99% of their business model was just regular hours. Save your time and money and pass going here. Junk read more

Pizza to go. Tasted good. Not cheap. Friendly service. I'd go back in a pinch (open late)

$9.25 for an average slice of pizza. you can go to any other spot in the city and get a better pizza. Never go here

$10 a slice! Insanity for a spot in Philly. absolutely insane. Couldn't review this place any worse for a pizza joint in Philadelphia.

Quick service, nice staff, excellent pizza. What more can one ask for. If you ask for recommendations, trust the vegetarian- he won't lead you astray! read more

Highway Robbery. Here's the deal with this place. It's open super late in a really poppin part of the city. People who have had a long night of drinks and partying will naturally gravitate towards a place like this serving late night munchies with little care of the prices. For those who are looking for a slice or two whom aren't drunk/high beware. Three slices can EASILY cost you close north of 20 dollars. No matter the quality, that is a sin for pizza. Pizza is mid, in case anyone was wondering. read more

Finding late-night pizza in Philadelphia is quite difficult. I gripe about it all the time. You have Insomnia Cookies at nearly every turn (open till the wee hours of the morning, bless their souls) but my needs after a night out involve pizza, not a flippin' cookie. Pizzeria Cappelli was within walking distance of our last stop, and I successfully swayed my crew to go the pizza route with me. This pizzeria is located in a super fun part of town, and the people watching at 1:00 AM was fab. The employees had a great sense of humor, and they kept the line moving. We wound up hitting Insomnia Cookies afterward (as per) but my soul was warmed by our pizza excursion. I will cease my smack-talking about late-night pizza being unavailable in the City of Brotherly Love. read more

Pizzeria Cappelli - Hilarious! The guys working there were fun also. Late-night pizza is where it's at! - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Pizza was fabulous!!! Was a nice escape from the day. Had been sight seeing all day and was close to the state penitentiary that we were going to visit. read more

Pizzeria Cappelli - All the pizza. The slices are huge. - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Decent pizza, but a bit pricey when ordering by the slice. We called to place an order and got a voice mail stating that they are open from 7pm to 4am and only offer walk in customers. They do NOT deliver. Luckily, it was one 1 block alway from our hotel. We ordered slices because it was late and didn't want to wait. They had a huge variety of options to choose from, so that was nice. They were pre-made and were just reheated in the oven. The pizza was good, but nothing too special. I would eat here again even with the prices being a little high, but everything in the area near her is a little high. Worth checking out if you need some late night grub. read more

Pizza is extremely expensive, they prey on drunk people. 2 stars because pizza was ok. Avoid if possible, they will charge you 40$ for 4 slices. Very disappointed. read more

Atmosphere is always interesting and the front door guy and the one guy who works there are great. 9.26$ for a terrible slice of pizza. They service the drunk and drinking crowd. Still, I think its extremely over priced and the taste and cost reflect the review. read more

The pizza here is the best around center city and the employees are always so kind and friendly! Normally come in later during the weekends but stopped by this afternoon for a couple slices and the man who was working was so outgoing and helpful - he recommended a great slice and made our visit memorable. Of course we will be coming back. Always leave here with a smile on my face! read more

Sometimes overrated but not really, sometimes Cappelli really good. Sometimes eh. Always ok. No worry about it, love it.

It was my first time at this place. I was in the neighborhood after bar hopping in Gayborhood and was craving pizza. My friend recommended this place and there was a line out the door so I figure it must be a good place. I must be spoiled by my favorite pizza spot in St Pete and Clearwater, Florida because this place was a disappointment. I ordered the sweet chicken pizza based on the employee's recommendations. I was disappointed because I could hardly taste any tomato sauce or cheese. One slice costs $4.50 plus tax which isn't bad but I was disappointed that the pizza fell flat of my expectations of a hot, gooey cheese pizza fit for a night out after drinking. read more

$30 for 3 slices you cannot be serious. This is a scam, I wish I would have checked reviews beforehand. The day this place closes down will be a joyous day read more

I do not plan to place another order from this establishment. The sauce did not meet my preferences, and it would be best to forget about it altogether. read more
