Craving pizza in Pembroke? Here are the top pizzerias and restaurants serving standout pies.
Pembroke doesn't have a pizza identity the way some towns do. There's no wood-fired cathedral, no lineage of third-generation pizzerias, no local consensus about what makes a proper pie. What it has instead is variety, which is its own kind of advantage. You can get straightforward neighborhood pizza at Dino's or Joe's, or you can pivot toward the eclectic energy of The Butcher's Wife, where pizza competes for attention with ramen and sushi. You can chase refinement at Anthony's Italian Grill or bring a group with conflicting dietary needs to The Kitchen Eatery and feel confident everyone eats well.
The restaurants listed here aren't ranked by how close they get to some imaginary pizza ideal. They're ranked by how seriously they approach the craft, and how likely they are to deliver what you're actually looking for. A kitchen making pizza as an afterthought, but making it with genuine technique, belongs on this list. So does a straightforward pizzeria that knows its lane and owns it. The difference between good and forgettable pizza in a town like Pembroke often comes down to whether someone in the kitchen cares, and all of these places do.
Whether you're after casual takeout, a refined dinner, or pizza that fits your dietary restrictions, start here.
This is the most versatile pizza destination in Pembroke. They offer three distinct styles (cheese, Hawaiian, and pepperoni), which means they're treating pizza seriously enough to have options rather than just cranking out one formula.
This is fine dining Italian, which means the pizza is an afterthought compared to pasta and chicken parm. But that's exactly why it's worth a visit if you're willing to splurge.
This is a kitchen that gets dietary needs right, which speaks to attention to detail. They offer pizza alongside thoughtful options like gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian preparations.
This is the straightforward neighborhood pizzeria, the kind of spot where pizza is the main event. You're not coming here for ambiance or a 15-item menu, you're coming for decent pizza at fair prices. These are the restaurants that keep pizza culture alive in smaller towns.
Another classic family pizzeria vibe. They're doing the tried-and-true sides that make pizza nights complete: bread sticks, cheese sticks, onion rings. The presence of these sides suggests a kitchen comfortable with fried work and handling volume. This is comfort food done right.
The name tells you what they prioritize, but they're taking pizza seriously enough to list it alongside chicken. This hybrid approach means they've likely found a sweet spot where both items coexist well. It's a good option if your group is split on whether they want pizza or fried chicken.
While pizza isn't their lead item, this kitchen is producing an enormous range of food successfully, from ribs to pasta to wings to steak. That kind of volume and consistency means they're not going to disappoint you on pizza.
This is the wildcard. A bakery with this level of ingredient focus (think tandoori, momos, naan) might not list pizza, but the dough fundamentals here are unquestionable. If they ever do offer pizza, the foundation will be there. For now, visit for their exceptional breads and preparations.
No. If that's what you're looking for, you're not going to find it in Pembroke. The pizza culture here leans toward variety and accessibility rather than one distinct style. The closest you'll get to refined, technique-focused pizza is Anthony's Italian Grill, where craftsmanship shows through in the details, but it's still coming out of a conventional kitchen rather than a wood-fired oven.
Dino's Pizza and Joe's Family Pizzeria are built for this. Both are straightforward neighborhood spots where pizza is the main event, they handle volume well, and they've optimized for exactly this use case. If you want something with a bit more personality and you don't mind waiting slightly longer, The Butcher's Wife does takeout and gives you actual choices between three distinct pizza styles.
The Kitchen Eatery and Catering Company is your answer. They're explicitly built around accommodating different preferences, with gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian options. They take dietary needs seriously, which translates to flexibility with toppings and preparations. If you're bringing a group with conflicting tastes, this is the safest bet. The Butcher's Wife also offers variety, though in a different way: three distinct pizza styles rather than extensive customization.
