Damn good delivery/takeout style pies, for a great price. I'm Philly born and raised, I bleed green, and even though I can't eat them regularly anymore because they'll kill me, I'm probably still at least 10 percent cheesesteak. That said, I think Philly, for the most part, has given up on corner store style pizza. Gourmet neopolitan descended pizza? We got that by the yacht load. But we all know that's too fancy for workhorse, blue collar, I used to have to carry boxes to save up money for my Playstation games kinda taste. I'm gonna give them their flowers this one time - NYC knows how to make cheap, solid, go to any spot and grab a slice and you'll be alright pizza. This is not something you can do anywhere in Philly. You gotta know your spots. Most places don't let their dough rise long enough to develop flavor, or they add a ton of sugar to their dough and or sauce, or they under bake everything to get the pies out faster. You know what I mean. You've been through this. You all have a spot where you're like "at 3 am after the club, sure. But sober?" For this reason, I learned to bake my own pies, at home. It's a multi day process. Make dough. Allow it to ferment in fridge for at least 24, but no more than 72 hours. Stretch, top, bake on a stone at 550F, and boom. The kind of pizza I'll enjoy sober. And Carter's is out here doing this for me! On a standard (I didn't ask for well done, I wanted to see how it would come out) crust, it comes out poofy, foldable, but able to stand up to its toppings. The dough i less salty than I would make, but plenty fine and full of flavor. Same with the sauce. The cheese pulls like a dream, and the pepperoni has just the right amount of grease. I think next time I will ask for well done, because this is the kind of crust where you get it a little toasty and whoooowheeeeee, we're gourmet now, guys and gals! You put this pizza in the dictionary and only internet nerds that no one likes would "well actually, pizza includes Chicago deep dish style" get outta here, nerd! We're talking workhorse pizza! I do love deep dish too so that's another conversation, but not the one we're having right now. Carter's - I salute you. You are my spot, right up there with Enjay's, for exactly what I want when I'm a little too lazy to cook, and want a delicious pie that I -never- question whether it's worth the money. And I haven't even partaken in your beer selection yet. Got-damn. I'll update this when I do. read more

My wife's order was incorrect, they added meat, and she's a vegetarian. Anyway, my order was delicious! Pizza sandwiches cheesesteak you need to add salt to bring out flavors. The owner or manager needs to activate the free yelp! read more

Carters Pizza And Beer - Philly Cheesesteak Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I wish it was better. Their menu has shrunk since last Yelpers reported. The pizza was lack luster. Looking for a thin crust and got an in between. Pizza cheese wasn't cheesy... like one solid congealed cheese. No pull. Lacked flavor. And it was warm so can't blame delivery time. The crust was not crisp and at least 3-5 minutes from getting to the crispy state everyone raved about. Maybe, perhaps, if I'm in the area I'll eat in or grab a slice. The cheesesteak was small portioned and just basic. Fries cold and greasy. I understand they may have gotten cold during delivery, but honestly, they were so light skinned I could tell they weren't even fried long enough. Meh. read more

Different Cheesesteak #1257. I was tired, cranky, and hungry. I was really happy when I found Carter's. A nice young man was running the counter. I was really really happy when I found out they sold Victory Brewing Berry Monkey and that I could drink it while I ate my cheesesteak sitting at one of their tables on Chestnut St. The cheesesteak looked great. I was really really really enjoying myself. Then I put on my reviewer's hat. For this cheesesteak to win any cheesesteak contests, everything needs to be a little better. They toasted the roll, which I like, but it was a little chewy. The meat felt a little stringy. The onions were oily. These are the things I think they need to improve to go from very good to great. read more

Carters Pizza And Beer - Chicken Parm Pizza split one slice for snack - Pizza Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Great pizza and some good deals, too. Nice beer and canned cocktail selection. I usually get takeout, but their atmosphere is so welcoming and fun! It's smaller, so it's not overwhelming, and there are a bunch of tabletop games like Uno, Connext 4, etc. Staff is always nice. 10/10 awesome service read more

The pizza has a really good, no flop crust from end to end and the flavors come together really nicely. The meat lovers slice was especially well balanced given everything going on with the variety of meats - just the right amount of salty, spicy and smokey. And the folks running the place are really nice. This is a welcome addition to this section of university city in Philly. read more
