Papa Joe’s Ristorante & Pizzeria Claimed

I have been a loyal customer of Papa Joe’s for many years. When my husband passed away in May, my coworkers sent me an assortment of their dinners – broccoli & chicken with pasta and garlic butter, baked ziti, meatballs, sausage, salad and garlic bread. All of these were fantastic, and it fed my family for days. More recently I have had their pizza which is always fantastic. My son likes the Sicilian (square/thick ) pizza , while I enjoy their thin crust Pompeii. The Pompeii is a hot pizza with various hot peppers, pepperoni, hot ham, hot sausage, garlic & onions with hot sauce. It can kill a cold, that’s for sure. They have specialty pizzas you can’t get anywhere else. I also love their Vinaigrette, a white pizza with ricotta, broccoli, tomatoes, and onions with a side of red wine vinegar to drizzle on it. The service is always fast and friendly whether it’s dine-in or delivery. The atmosphere is nice, family photos hanging up , a nice homey feel. I highly recommend them for dinners or pizza.

Papa Joe’s is a real neighborhood restaurant! Food was GREAT! So good we went twice in 4 days! By far the best chicken parmigiana!!! My wife was so thrilled with the house Italian dressing,she asked to speak with the girl who had made it. Morgan was almost embarrassed that my wife raved about the taste because she was the person who actually prepared it. This restaurant has a GREAT takeout business that kept it alive during COVID.. only recently opened for dine in. They have specials daily but they sell out early..

While vacationing in Hancock, MA, I found Papa Joe’s via a Trip Advisor Search. After reading a bunch of reviews, we decided to try it for dinner. It was one of the best meals we’ve had this trip! Almost everything on the menu is homemade…the bread, the pizza, the meatballs, many of the desserts…and they are all delicious! We started off with an antipasto, which was more than enough for the 3 adults to share, and our waitress (who was excellent!) brought out the homemade bread. I could have just had the bread and been happy. Then our meal–a pizza for 2 of us to share & the Taste of Italy for our 3rd person. The pizza, which we ordered with the thin crust, was hot from the oven, and had a great sauce/cheese ratio–not too much of either! The taste of Italy was just the right size with 2 meatballs, 2 pieces of sausage, mozzarella sticks, and garlic bread. While we asked for boxes to take home leftovers, the waitress teased us about not leaving with dessert. So we ordered hillbilly pie and cookies and cream pie to go–the hillbilly pie is similar to Kentucky Derby pie (think warm chocolate chip cookie) and did not disappoint after following the waitress’ suggestion that I heat it in the microwave for 10 seconds. The cookies and Cream was also delicious & refreshing & full of sweet non dairy whipped topping & an Oreo cookie-like crust. It was quite a treat to eat at Papa Joe’s and if we are ever close by, we will definitely have dinner there again!
