Village Pizza Iii

In the early 90’s as a young boy free from the confines of middle school we would race into town for a slice of “Ben’s Pizza” Simply put this place is iconic. Many leave Red Hook and when they come back even for a short visit and stop to village pizza is a must. These days I am not a Pizza eater but ever Friday with my kids, we always get a pizza from Village. Prices inexpensive Food: 30 plus years kinda speaks for itself doesn’t it. Joe and Ben from Village Pizza are icons. If you are one of our many visiting downstate “friends” this may not be a posh Brooklyn eatery, this place is legend.

Ordered a meatball parm sub. Sub came on your standard pizza place sub roll only it was not toasted and cold as if straight out of a fridge. Only 2 meatballs 1 per side cut in half that seemed pretty flavorless swimming in lots of sauce and cheese. All of that seemed like it was microwaved and spilled on the bread just before it was handed to me. Won't be ordering again.

Red Hook s best overall Pizza 🍕 Shop. Always friendly always courteous and community oriented.. I had stopped at another pizza shop on town and the person at the counter barked and was nasty saying " we don't do slices" Just like Four Brothers pizza did to me in Pleasant valley when I first moved to the area.
