My siblings and I are big fans of The Office. We were already in the area because of our Trip to Hershey's Park. We decided to try Alfredo's Pizza Cafe because of the place mentioned on the show. The pizza could have used extra time in the oven, but the apps were delicious. My main concern is the service and treatment we received. There were quite a few flies in the restaurant, and when we complained about them, the waitress gave us an indifferent attitude. She stated, "Well, it is summer." She made no attempts to fix the issue. We could have been moved to a different table more quickly. To all my Office fans, it is not worth the hype. read more

Alfredo's Pizza Cafe - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

On a road trip with a 5 year old and 1 year old. We called 40 mins ahead to order take out (1 large pizza and French fries) so we would not have to wait long. When we got there we asked if we could sit down in the restaurant and we were all seated. The waitress brought us water and plates. We were eating for about 10 minutes when a manager came over and said we can not order takeout and sit in the restaurant. This would have been fine if they had told us before we brought our pizza over and were all eating and sitting already (with 2 little kids!). There were at least 4-5 open tables at the time (was about 2pm on a Saturday.) The manager politely offered to-go cups and boxes and said it was their policy that we can not order take out and dine in. He noted that we wouldn't even be allowed to sit outside if it was nice out. So we left a tip for the waitress and exited. We would have been there maybe 5 more minutes if he had not come over. I understand this is their policy but there was some miscommunication between the restaurant side and the takeout side. It was not our fault that we were sat down, waited on, and ate for 10 minutes before getting kicked out. The pizza was consistent with the "old forge" style in this area. Cheese was thicker than other places. Crust was on point. Because of our experience I would recommend going to Maroni's down the street if you want old forge style pizza. Their pizza is better and never had any issues with the service there. Advice to the manager: pick your battles. We were not disturbing anyone and were almost finished eating. There were no people waiting to be sat. If this was your policy we never should have been sat down and waited on in the first place. At that point you just gotta take the L and wait for us to leave. I hate to 1-star a small business but this experience was so disgusting it made me actually take the time out of my day to write all this out. We will never go here again. Will be back at Maroni's next time for sure. Class establishment ! read more

Welcome to the Old Forge pizza subculture of northeastern Pennsylvania. Did I know it existed? No. Did I come here because of The Office? Likely. Will I be back? I wouldn't be opposed to it. This is the most interesting pizza I've ever tasted. Thick, pan dough. Creamy cheese that sticks to the roof of your mouth. A taste that kinda reminded me of french bread pizza from elementary school. I wasn't sure what to expect when we got it, but i'm glad we tried it. We figured there was some sort of American Cheese / cheese blend situation happening (confirmed by Google) which is very much not what i'm used to on my pizza, but I did like the inherent nostalgia of the pizza experience as a whole. Paired with a gigantic salad and a $3 beer, nothing said "10pm road trip back from Ottawa" like this pit stop. We brought home the leftover pizza and I tackled two more slices just after midnight. Any fan of The Office should stop in just to say they did, and fans of classic pizza (subculture) will be psyched. And remember, as always: "If the salad is on top, I send it back." read more

Food was pretty good, not mind blowing but good. Service was fast and the waiter was super friendly. This is the pizza place referenced in the office. Much like most of the stops in Scranton there's only a few mentions of the office in the restaurant. read more

I spent one night passing thru Scranton and I had recently watch the Office episode featuring their pizza. I did dinner there with aforementioned pizza. If you like a heavy cheese topping this is the place for you. Large portions so I had take take home. It was actually better after a nite in the Fridge and reheating. Waiter was young but attentive. The only downside was that they overdid their Office episode hype. The waitress told me they add $4 dollars for the actual larger take home box as featured in the show but she waived the charge. Office related merch & paraphernalia all around so a must if ur in Scranton. I would recommend even without the above. read more

It's really a 3.5, but the fact that it was in the office was really cool. Great pizza and long hots! Waitress was very friendly and she did a great job. Nice cozy Italian spot. read more

It's covid season, so I've had to be creative when it comes to vacation time. Why not visit the location of my all-time favorite TV show? And a visit to Scranton would not be complete without going to Dunder Mifflin's favorite pizza spot. The first thing you want to make sure is that you do NOT go to Pizza by Alfredo's, which sounds similar in name but who's pizza is often referred to as a hot circle of garbage. Never mind, that place doesn't exist. Fortunately, Alfredo's Pizza Cafe does, and it was solid. Granted, being a born & raised NYer, I'm not going to be blown away by another town's pizza, but all things considered, it got the job done. I just remembered that I really wanted their square pizza but they were all out, and now I'm sad again. Although the Office isn't actually filmed here, it was still a surreal experience. read more

Alfredo's Pizza Cafe - Cowabunga - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

Great food, excellent martini menu, and fabulous amdiance. We will return in the future.

Yeah, we're "The Office" fans and tried it the first time for that reason. Second time back, on the way up north and pizza is just as good as the first time. They have a double baking process and use American cheese to get a unique quality so if you're expecting traditional pizza their square type is going to be very different. I'm from Boston and a pizza snob, and this stuff is really good. Plus the folks there are always friendly. In reading a few of the reviews I'm not sure I've been stopping in the same place as some of the others commenting? Sounds like they brought their problems in with them and like to wear them on their shoulders. Too bad-- if you took them at all seriously you could miss out on a great dining experience! read more

Alfredo's Pizza Cafe - Signature square pizza, with different toppings-- the best! - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

So my husband and I came into Alfredo's pizza cafe as huge office fans, and we're leaving agreeing with our DunderMifflin family-- they really are the best. Our waitress, Nancy, is just the sweetest person. She didn't hesitate to ask us if we were office fans, and then told us exactly which pizza to order and how to order it. So we did. Who were we to argue with a professional? While looking at the menu searching for appetizers, most of the prices seemed reasonable. We finally decided to start with hot wings as our app, since Nancy let us know that each pizza is made to order and takes about 30 mins from kitchen to table. The wings were on the bigger side of average and were absolutely delicious. The perfect amount of crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, covered in a fairly hefty coating of sauce. We made quick work of them. My husband said that he'd come back just for the wings. While still waiting for our pizza, we saw a HUGE salad get delivered to a table and also a calzone that looked fabulous. For those prices we saw, it definitely looked worth it. Nancy was super attentive in the best way possible. She made sure we had drinks refilled and updated us on our pizza but also gave us plenty of space to enjoy being out at a restaurant. When the pizza arrived, we were very glad we got a half-pan. Way bigger than we expected!! The crust was crunchy on the bottom but not rock hard. The blend of American and mozzarella was surprisingly delicious. (We were skeptical, but Nancy came through for us!) The sauce was perfectly portioned and not too sweet or savory. It's not too greasy, but it still has some grease with it. We couldn't even finish the half-pan between the two of us... (maybe we could have if we didn't get wings, but I'm not upset about it.) For 2 (bottomless) cokes, 10 wings, and the half-pan of pepperoni pizza, our total came to $27.03 AFTER tax!! Final thoughts: We wish we lived closer. We kind of ruined pizza for ourselves because now every pizza we eat will be like eating a hot circle is garbage, unless it's from Alfredo's Pizza Cafe. We will definitely be back. And we'll hope that Nancy is our waitress again, because she is amazing. read more

Alfredo's Pizza Cafe - Alfredo's Famous Thick Pan Pizza, Half Tray, Mozzarella & American cheese mix, with pepperoni. - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

Nine of us met for some food and this place was horrible! Even though we had reservations, service was beyond horrible. The server got orders wrong, forgot basics like water, and most importantly when the wrong order was corrected we were charged twice! Their rules for groups is 20% is automatically added to your bill. He could not do separate checks either. Half of us were served while the other half was still waiting. You think with reservations for 9 people that were all there 5 minutes before and adding a 20% gratuity fee on top, your service would be spot on. Nope save yourself time and go somewhere else. read more

Was in town for a quick trip and obviously had to stop by being a big fan of The Office. Didn't have much time so we ordered regular slices of pizza, but it was really good! The service was also good, the staff was friendly and there was plenty of room. Also loved how you could get little merchandise. Will definitely visit again if I come back to Scranton in the future! read more

No reference to "The Office" if that's what you are looking for. We would have questioned food, but had already waited over 30 minutes for the food. Deep dish pizza- outer crust is delicious, but the cheese tasted processed. Definitely did not taste like typical pizza cheese, sorta plastic flavor and texture. Pepperoni not cooked, which seems odd for waiting over 30 minutes. We tore off the edge crust and mostly just ate that. Butternut ravioli- on the sweet side. Zero flavor of butternut or sage (from the menu description). The sauce and walnuts were good, but tasted more like a dessert. Tiramisu - very small portion, flavor ok, but not worth $6.95. Cannoli- shell good, but filling not typical. Whip cream from a can. Not worth $6.95. If you're going as an "Office" fan, take a photo outside and drive away. Or walk just inside to get the window that says "Alfredo's Pizza Cafe." read more

Had the double crust white pizza. Delicious and very unique! Service was quick, friendly and the pizza was hot and fresh.

I waited an hour and half for delivery...2 orders of steamed clams were ice cold 1 order of ravioli, cold. They sent me an extra tray of pizza, but said cuz I took in the home I accepted it and would not do a thing! Be careful read more

They rushed us out of here and were very rude about it. We requested a second drink and we were told no. Unbelievable. Then we tried to get a pizza to take home and they refused. read more

PSA: STEVE CARRELL WAS NOT HERE! As passionate Office fans this was a must stop on our Office Tour through Scranton. We were seated efficiently and each of us received a big menu that was almost overwhelming for our hungry, indecisive selves. Alfredo didn't actually serve us but Darlene was adequately welcoming. She was also sure not to mince her words when we ordered two types of custom pizzas and we asked if we had made good choices. Her whimsical response left me salivating. However, they were showing us weight loss programs(almost shockingly amazing results) on the tv, like what are they trying to say? There is a lot of cheese in the pizza. Do not order extra cheese. I repeat. DO NOT ORDER EXTRA CHEESE! read more

Great food and service. Get there early! Fills fast. Pizza is spectacular. Old fashioned recipe full of flavor.

We had a reservation for a party of 16 for Mother's Day. It was extremely busy and we were very patient, without complaint, and waited an hour and a half for our food...no problem. The newest mom in the bunch, got the special, gnocchi with pesto sauce. She thought something tasted weird but tried to eat it anyway. Half way thru eating she realized that the gnocchi were not cooked. We asked the waitress if they would remove the gnocchi from our bill (which ended up being over $400) The manager said they would only refund half, because she ate half and they would make another dinner for her. She didn't want another sub-par dinner. Three of us went to different managers asking for a refund and they wouldn't budge....for $10?! Wow. One more observation.....the female manager was dressed like she was working in a Vegas night club....the young children in the restaurant saw way too much that day! read more

So i will start off saying I absolutely love Alfredos pizza! We have been there a won of times. We today with people from out of town to introduce them to old Ford style pizza. Had Mauri as a waitress, absolutely the worst waitress by far. Really makes me question going back. Ordered a pepperoni pizza, came as a round, now we all know that a pizza comes as a square. She blamed my husband and said he ordered a round. He didn't! From very beginning she was awful! Took at least 20 Minutes to bring out drinks. The other waiter actually came over and asked if we were waited on. He served 5 tables to her one. He was excellent. Then the manager came over and i told him the problem and he told me he disagreed! Wow! 4 of us and he disagreed. Very unprofessional. Sadly not sure we will go back for some time. read more

The best pizza in Scranton. Dinners are versatile and very good. The pizza is just as good the next day cold out of the fridge or warmed in the oven. read more

We went here because of my wife's ardent Office Fandom. Alfredo's has certainly embraced that and, during our weekend visit, it was crowded. The food...okay...we ordered both the semi-Detroit style pizza and the double crust pizza. The later, which I have never had before, was filled with a slightly runny cheese sauce...a little like Chicago deep dish in its filling and no-taste-all-texture crust. Good if you are in town or love the Office. But, tbh, not worth a special trip. read more

We came here on our family road trip because we our big fans of the Office. It was not what we expected and definitely was a lot better than what I anticipated. The meatball sub was delicious and HUGE. So was the Philly cheesesteak my husband ordered. The chips they came with were a bit too salty but you can order frenchfries for an up charge. They don't have a Children's menu which was a bummer for our 4 year old. My son got the wings and said they were so amazing. Honestly, the portion sizes are very large but oh so good to pack up and take for later. It was a little pricey for a party of 6 but well worth it in our eyes. They do have office gear that ranges from $20-40. read more

No host to handle a Saturday evening crowd - sad. Food is usually good but couldn't get seated while guests waited in crowds with no host to communicate. read more

Probably the best pizza I've had. I came here because I'm a big fan of The Office and just expected normal pizza. The cheese was probably the best part, and was meaty when we got it. Perfecto ‍. Service was great, our waitress even gave us a pizza box Bc it's the same one from the show. read more

Alfredo's Pizza Cafe - Award winning pizza - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

Always trying a different place when I visit the area and this was a repeat OFFICE pilgrimage with my new viewer nephew. Top example of the pizza in the area - slightly sweet tangy sauce with that rich American cheese mouth feel and a wonderful crisp bottom crunch. If you're from NYC or PHL, this pizza takes time so don't expect 10-15 minute order fulfillment especially at peak dining times so plan accordingly. It is a treat worth the wait. read more

What in the actual pizza?!! I came here as a homage to The Office. Based off of reviews I actually did not expect much but holy gosh! I actually really like the pizza! The soup and the calamari appetizer were good but honestly that pizza was some of the best I've ever had in my whole life. The bread was light and crispy, without being thin crust. The cheese was something else. Not like any other cheese on a pizza I've had! It was creamy and it didn't congeal all gross. I would definitely go here again. The location isn't the best, the interior isn't super fancy, but who cares if you have tasty food with friendly service. read more

We came for lunch on a weekday and was seated immediately indoors. Outside seating is also available. Tables were socially distanced and staff was wearing masks. We ordered the French Onion Soup and a half tray of their Award winning Pan Pizza. The French Onion Soup was very tasty. The broth was sweet topped with plenty of melty cheese charred to perfection. The Pan Pizza was also delicious. The cheese was very creamy and the crust was thick and crispy. The half tray came with 6 pieces and was enough for my party of two. We ultimately came here because of the TV show "The Office" and Alfredo's proudly displays on their menu that they are "Home of The Good Pizza". I agree! Wonderful experience at Alfredo's! read more

When making the choice between Pizza by Alfredo and Alfredo's Pizza Cafe, choose Alfredo's Pizza Cafe every time. There's a very big difference between these two pizza places, both in quality of ingredients, and overall taste. Ok ok... Office jokes aside, this place isn't terrible, but it isn't the best either. Service is decent, my mom's spinach salad was ok, my side salad was ok, my sister hated her square pizza (it was honestly just completely lacking in flavor and wasn't tasty at all), and she wasn't impressed with her chicken wrap with chips & salsa either. However, I ordered a "round" slice of pizza, and I liked it. I thought it was pretty good and would def. order it again. Overall, we were a little disappointed in Alfredo's Pizza Cafe but were SO happy to visit and try the infamous pizza from The Office. I would visit again if I was in Scranton, I mean come on.. you have to! read more

If you like pizza, do not go here. It's literally the worst pizza I've ever eaten. I can not stop thinking about how gross it was.

Food has really gone down hill sausage and pepper hoagie was uneatable will not order from there again

We were in the mood for some pizza (and my boyfriend got a meatball hoagie) so we stopped here. We placed our order at the counter, then went in to the bar area to have a drink while we waited. The bartenders were friendly. Our food was ready in about 45 minutes. Pizza is decent. Not my favorite, but it was good. My boyfriend loved his meatball hoagie. read more

Alfredo's Pizza Cafe - Double crust white pizza...sooo yummy and cheesy!! Best white pizza in Scranton!! - Pizza Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

Not very good we waited at least a 1/2 hour for a square Pizza made with American cheese. Only in Pa.

Following the Lackawanna Pizza Trail, decided to try Alfredo's. Walked in and no one at the hostess stand, no big deal, sat at the bar. No bartender for about 5 minutes. Finally arrived, no personality. Ordered a half tray and 2 Miller lights. Pizza did not arrive until we asked for it, about 40 minutes later. Luke warm, not a kitchen problem. We were able to eat it immediately without burning the roof of mouth. Pizza was not bad but the service was inadequate. They displayed " Best of pizza for 2005 and 2006". What have they been doing for the past 16 years? Not interested in returning. read more

Pretty awful pizza really. The staff was friendly enough but the pizza tastes like it came from a cafeteria. Its greasy and tasteless
