Town Spa Pizza in Stoughton, Massachusetts, has long been a contender in the “Best Bar Pizza South of Boston” debate. However, whispers of declining quality circulated among loyal patrons for a period. Recent experiences suggest a potential return to form for this beloved pizza institution. A recent takeout order of several pies, focusing on simple toppings like plain and pepperoni, revealed a bar pizza experience that rivaled the best in the area.

The pizzas featured a generous layer of golden-brown cheese extending to the edges of a slightly oily, bendable crust. The sauce, zesty and rich, complemented the cheese and crust without overpowering their flavors. True to bar pie tradition, the small size encouraged individual consumption, making it easy to savor a whole pizza (or more).

While it’s possible this was an isolated incident of exceptional quality, anecdotal evidence from other pizza enthusiasts suggests a broader trend of improvement at Town Spa. While perhaps not yet reaching the legendary status of Lynwood Cafe in Randolph, a frequent benchmark for bar pizza excellence, the recent Town Spa experience indicates a significant narrowing of the gap.

This resurgence in quality positions Town Spa as a strong contender in the competitive bar pizza scene south of Boston. The combination of crispy crust, flavorful sauce, and generous cheese coverage makes it a must-try for anyone seeking a classic bar pizza experience.

Whether a long-time fan or a newcomer to the world of Massachusetts bar pizza, a visit to Town Spa Pizza in Stoughton promises a satisfying and authentic experience.
