Boardwalk style pizza right in Ambler, PA. This is located right across the street from the Ambler Train Station, and you are sure to find a type of pizza that fits your needs. They have very creative pizza's whether it be ranch chicken parm slices, Philly cheesesteak slices, or hell even fries on you pie slices. I will definitely be back to this location to try more of your pizza, my first stop in I tried the ranch chicken parm pizza and definitely recommend, it has a bit of a kick but very good. As always people SYOY!!! read more

I've gone to the Pizza Box a number of times over the years. Its location at an end of the main drag of Butler Pike in Ambler, complete with a parking lot, makes it a convenient stop. Their pizza is good. If you want pizza and they're convenient to you, you should try theirs. You'll have a good meal. If you're looking for the best pizza within a fifteen mile radius, there's an embarrassment of riches. So many places with excellent pizza where some of it comes down to taste, but you won't be super disappointed with theirs. The service is solid. Pizza is ready on time. The people who work there are polite and most obviously care about the place. An unusual plus: They put a little effort into making their pizza look pretty. It's not the most important thing for a pizza, but it's kinda nice when you see it! read more

I ordered a square Marguerite pizza for take out. While the pizza was "OK", it was obvious that the crust was not freshly made. It was stale. also the pizza had a lot of spice, not normal for this type of pizza, my guess is they were perhaps trying to cover up the stale crust. Didn't work. $26 for a pizza, I expect something completely freshly made. Also, they said give 20 minutes for pickup. No traffic, got there is 12 minutes and the pizza was sitting there waiting for me, another sign that this was not a freshly made pizza. read more

I didn't get a chance to try their pizza because I was working and wouldn't have been able to get any work done. I did try their Italian hoagie. It was full of meat, the roll was ok and they used balsamic vinegar and not red wine vinegar. This totally changes the flavor so it wasn't something I would get again. Even though I didn't try their pizza it looked awesome. They had a plethora of specialty pizzas that you could try by the slice. The staff was very friendly and also provided samples of their chicken guacamole wrap. The wrap was very good and I will get it for lunch at some point. Once I have sampled their pizza I'm sure I will be adding another star to my review. read more

I just picked up a cheese steak today, August, 20, 2021 and my review isn't on the quality of the food but on what they charged. They nickel and dime me on add on's such as fried onions, hot peppers and added some kind of a bogus non cash charge of $.50 in which they had no signs in the establishment for. This kind of overcharging is very disconcerting and dishonest. It's not so much the money but the principal that is disconcerting. I have been going to the Pizza Box since I was kid but they lost a customer today! I supported them during the heart of the pandemic but I am done! I just have no tolerance for being taken advantage of. I hope that couple of dollars that they stole from is worth losing a customer. read more

I am always in the market for a neighborhood pizza place that can blow all 5 senses away. The pizza box seems to have raised that bar even more! My best friend and I did a takeout of their margherita pizza and were not disappointed. The crush is just the right texture to have a crispy bottom yet soft top. The pizza itself was delicious. The sauce tasted homemade - sweet . The fresh mozzarella and basil just complimented the pie even more. If you are in the neighborhood, stop in or take a pie to go.

So happy they opened a Pizza Box in Ambler since I had to deal with the heartache of Volare Pizza closing. Where do I start? Their Sicilian is bomb and so is the Stallone. I've also had their wings, which are super crispy, and their cheesesteak hoagie, which had a great roll. Staff is friendly but i have only done take out and haven't just gone in for a slice yet! Speaking of! They have a lot of different options if you wanna just go in and grab a slice or two of pizza. That said, they don't offer delivery, which isn't end of the world. I'll make the trip for their food. It's great to have a new and delicious option for pizza in Ambler! My new go to spot! read more

Next up, the meatballs! I'm a meatball guy, and was quickly disappointed with the texture and flavor of the meatballs. They were small and not that tender. I tried a different meatball to see if it was similar, the texture was different and very grainy, to the point I couldn't eat it! I hadn't no idea why the texture was so 'grainy'. I would like to point out the marinara was delicious. We left the remaining meatballs, and mentioned it to our server - the Manager came over and was very understanding. We weren't charged for the meatballs. The next appetizer we ordered was the Eggplant Rollatini. It's is a simplistic creamy classic Italian-American dish. Thinly sliced eggplant rolled around ricotta cheese, then baked in a rich tomato sauce with mozzarella cheese. It was a good appetizer as I mentioned before, in a great marinara. We shared the Chicken Parmesan with Spaghetti for our entree. It turned out to be the star of the meal! It was a perfectly crispy golden brown chicken cutlet, with marinara and bubbly mozzarella cheese. The cutlet was tender and juicy, covered with the same wonderful marinara.

It is a very old school deli with a Pac Man arcade game and a Gopher Gottlieb pinball machine. It's taken me almost a year but found my new favorite spot for lunch in Ambler. As always people SYOY!!!

The first time my hubby and I went there they were closing in the next 10 minutes and gave us an…read moreattitude when we tried to order. So we left but my son said to try again because he likes the high end over priced frozen Italian food they sell. So we went and my hubby ordered ham and cheese with mayo on a kaiser roll. Plain, nothing else. The roll was abnormally small, the ham was abnormally thick, and there was two or three pieces of ham just folded in half and the sand was falling apart. All for the outrageous price of $9.50! $9.50 for two or three pieces of ham and two pieces of cheese with mayo on a tiny roll. Unbelievable! I will never be returning to this deli again.

Lots of products!

This is the damn near $10.00 sandwich. SMH

I got the Phillies Red Hot-Tober sandwich which I love because it is a slightly different…read morecombination that goes together well. It has chicken, creamy vodka sauce, mozzarella, soppressata, and hot honey. I like creamy things, honey, and savory and what better way to go than to try this sandwich winner. When I saw a friend local to this place post a picture of this sandwich, I "had" to try this baby out for myself on an otherwise surprisingly fairly uneventful weekend for me. I didn't go straight here as 1 hour for only a sandwich is , well a drive I would probably still do anyway lol. I went to Pizza Richmond, then here, then Dave and Busters Philly Mills to get some exercise in. Staff here is friendly. Apparently Verona pizza is across the street and cheaper with I believe a local famed cheesesteak but it doesn't have "weird" food combinations like Maple Glen- which is more my vibe.

The young lady who took and processed my order was very pleasant. She is the type of person you hire for that position. She graciously packed the uneaten half of my food I could not. Cutting back on the calories here. My food met my expectations. Seeded roll was stuffed with tasty cheese, onions , and of course tender steak. I added a 20oz Diet Coke. The whole tab was $27. I do not spend this much for lunch but I ate half of it later. Adequate parking. Regular booths. Nothing fancy. Take credit.

I also enjoyed their Italian Wedding soup. Nice broth, not too salty with the little meatballs, escarole, carrots. Delicious. The service is nice.

I used to work near this location and was a frequent diner, that was 12 years ago and will now start visiting again. The prices are definitely a little higher than some other places but I don't mind paying a few extra bucks for excellent food. It's a basic pizza place with some interesting, higher end dinners including seafood which I look forward to trying. I knew the owner and his child attended school with my child 15 years ago and remembered me , seems like a good guy and is definitely passionate about his business. Definitely want to start trying some other pizzas , I doubt I'll ever try a cheesesteak due to pudges being close bye but I may try an Italian hoagie! More future updates to follow!

The owner answers the phone in a deep Italian accent. The menu remains one of those little black letters pushed into a backlit, Coke-provided plastic display hung over the side wall.
