Our family tracked to Scranton for a basketball game @ Marywood. We targeted Dutchies on the…read morerecommendation of a Scranton native. The format was unusual in that it appeared to be a carry out place- but with a dining room attached. You order & pay- then go sit and wait for your meal to be served. The dining room is more comfortable than a typical pizza place with a family warmth. Our crew ordered chicken soup, burgers, pizza and a sub to go for out basketball player. We selected their "Old Forge" style pizza- iconic to the region. It didn't disappoint. The crust was light & crispy, the sauce in the sweet side and the blend of cheeses (including American cheese which is the hallmark, I'm told, of the style). It was delicious. I am a pizza 'freak'. I've enjoyed pizza from iconic restaurants in Naples, Rome, Chicago, New York, California, Detroit and now...Scranton! The burger people praised their 8oz. Burgers. The diner that enjoyed chicken soup (an accomplished cook) had high praise for the home made flavor and textures. When you add that we were treated like family members of this family owned establishment, our experience was exceptional. My only "complaints" are that: the check was far less than expected and (more of an opportunity than a complaint) I would have spent $$ for a nice red wine to complement my meal.

Everything! I've been coming here since I was a kid. Literally nothing has changed and that's a…read moregood 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.

I like to avoid chains at all costs and support local businesses, so this came up when the boys said they were jonesing for wings. Really cute place in a residential neighborhood. We ordered Buffalo wing bites and mozzarella sticks. Good flavor & tasty with a nice amount of heat. (I lived in Western NY for years - I know my wings!) They were generous with the ranch dressing as well. (My kid doesn't like blue cheese dressing - weirdo!) Good mozzarella sticks had that Gen Z-pleasing "cheese-pull!" The owner was kind & welcoming and the service was quick & friendly. A great place to refuel hungry athletes! (Or anyone who loves boneless wings!) Would like to return one day for the pizza and try an Old Forge pie Nina's way.

Central High School is now part of Lacka. College, but Papa's is STILL making the same great pizza! I like to order mine well done/burnt to get nice browned cheese on the edges of the pizza. One pizza might be enough for 2 people. But get one pie each to be on the safe side. Left over pizza is never a bad thing.
