Dipper Cafe - Plain south shore pizza. - Bars Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

I finally gave in and tried this place. The Dipper Café absolutely nailed it with their pizzas...I tried the Portuguese Feast and the Hawaiian because they had a sale going on in the DoorDash app for 20% off. Honestly, they're some of the best pies I've ever had. The crust had that perfect balance of charred and crispy on the outside, but still substantial enough to give the whole pizza some heft. Unlike a lot of thinner crust spots nothing here felt dry or brittle/falling apart every bite. The flavors were phenomenal. The Portuguese Feast had thick cut banana peppers, ground linguica and pieces of garlic that worked so well together. The Hawaiian was classic/what you'd expect. It hit that sweet-and-savory balance just right with cubed chunks of ham and pineapple. Both were a little on the greasy side, but it's the kind of good greasy you expect from a satisfying pizza...easily managed with a napkin lol. If you're into pizza that has character, and haven't given this place a try yet, it is worth every bite. Was even great and fresh delivered. Next time I'd like to try it fresh out of the oven! read more

Dipper Cafe - Portuguese Feast (Linguica, Banana Peppers, Garlic) and Hawaiian Pizza (Pineapple / ham) - Bars Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

Got takeout pizza! Came out super hot! Delicious. Crispy edges and undercarriage. No flop at all. Both were great in their own way. The Portuguese feat with a little kick with the peppers and the pepperonis small with slowly cupping. Bar service was great when she got to me and the bar was clean inside too. Definitely one of those if you know you know spots for sure. Would definitely come back and support this local spot read more

Mixed Bag Short and sweet with this review. I love the concept and love bahhh pies. The Dipper has the bones to be a winner, but falls short. Average bar pies missing flavor and crispiness. An odd vibe inside and very locals leaning place even though it hasn't bern open that long. Went in when major sports were playing and having no awareness to make this available for customers. No sound to watch a game or a jukebox being off so you have these strange silent moments. Bartenders skipping songs we tried to play to get some noise in the place. Overall just a little off. These items could easily be corrected because as I said before the bones and the concept are there. Try The Dipper and make your own assumptions. Thanks read more

Delightfully surprised, it's good bar pizza! Ordered from Grub Hub it took an hour and half, next time I will pick up., not the dipper's fault. It's good. It's not greasy, the burnt edges were delicious, the crust held up and did not fold with the toppings. Toppings were generous. If you are looking for a Town Spa or Lynnwood this is on point. read more

This is 100% BAR pizza. One booth. My husband overheard an interview taking place and they informed the potential new hire: we are a bar that serves pizza. We have no interest in adding more booths. (Honestly this made me feel unwelcome.) The facility gives off biker vibes from the photos but was not a dive inside. Actually updated modern and clean. The clientele was very Fall Riverish (interesting) but very nice especially since we came in with 2 kids. The pizza tasted good and was done laced and crispy as we asked. But there was somehow a disconnect between the crust and the sauce/cheese. For some reason the sauce and cheese was just not interested in sticking to the pizza dough/crust. Overall- I would eat it again but next time- without kids. read more

The Dipper Cafe is more of a bar than a restaurant, but the pizzas are pretty solid. The service was friendly enough and the ambiance,...well,.. it's a bar. Nothing wrong with that. The pizza here are pretty solid bar pizzas. I would definitely recommend the Dipper Cafe if you are in the area. read more

Such a fun unexpected stop. We wanted pizza and my partner recommended Dipper. He loves South Shore Bar Style. The place is bright and clean in a good dive bar kind of way. The bartender was great and made my partner a nice Manhattan. We loved our pizza. The flavors were great. It was greasy in a good kind of way. Loved the Dipper. read more

Solid spot for south shore bar Pizza. Nice looking bar. Talked to some nice people while I waited for my pizza. The bartender was cranking the tunes on the jukebox! Baseball on the TV...no Celtics that night. Anyway, my mushroom and onion pizza was quite tasty, though the crust was a little floppy. More doughy than cracker like. But that's ok! I still enjoyed it! I'd go back. read more

I love pizza and I like to think of myself as a gourmet. For example, the white clam pizza at Pepe's in New Haven is amazing. I had the good luck today to have the pizza - linguica and plain - at the Dipper. For my money it is the best in the area. The crust is perfect - crisp and perfectly caramelized. Sit at the bar, have a beer and have a pie or two. read more

Ordered a linguica pizza thru Grub Hub. There wasn't even a pizza box -- just two paper plates that did not protect the dried out and barely warm pizza. I had to hunt for any linguica actually on the pizza. Found about two pieces here and there. Pie was burned in crust, and overall unappealing. I won't be ordering any more pizza from these guys. It seems a side hack for a proper dive bar. Nothing more. read more

Ordered a linguisa and sausage pizza from The Dipper Cafe. Perfection!! Ordered as in, no special instructions. Laced edges on point. Plentiful amount of toppings, cheese and sauce. My new number 1!! Wish I had taken a picture before grabbing a slice. Highly recommend if you're in the area read more

Ordered 3 takeout pizzas from here while coming home with my son from his baseball practice on a Friday night. Never had before, 1st timers. Having some plant-based, vegan, and vegetarian family we were also hoping to try the vegan pizzas but some ingredients were out of stock. So this review is for the regular pizzas. We had 2 veggie delights (mushroom, onion, green pepper, olive) and a plain cheese. For those who know the different styles of pizza, these are of the south shore bar pizza (SSBP) variety. Not many spots in Southcoast, greater New Bedford area are serving this style even though a few seem to be popping up lately. Well, we might not order pizza from anywhere else in the New Bedord area again lol!!!! These were AMAZING! Right ratios for sauce, cheese, & toppings. Perfectly cooked, everything fresh, crunchy flavorful crust, good sauce, and great crust "lacing" (didn't even need to order well done, just are prepared the proper way). The staff was friendly from the phone order to the pickup at the bar. Hoping the pizza at this place catches on so they have the motive to keep serving it! Try them out, you won't regret it. read more

My first order with the DC was SO good! Best I've had in years. Ty!! The pizza is cooked to perfection.

Play in a pool league there and the atmosphere is good. Small quaint bar. Bar pizza is great, linguica and hot honey is the BOMB. Drinks are good, prices are reasonable. read more

Awesome pizza only, but nice community bar. Customer service is awesome and waiting to come back. They have open Mic tonight.

These guys know what they are doing. Def the best new bar pie place I've tried this year. The cook and lacing on these is absolutely perfect. You won't find a better bar pizza. read more

This is not a family restaurant. It's a bar and they allow smoking inside. It has one table. Not a great place to stop for a quick bite, though we didn't try the food. read more

Five stars for their version of south shore bar pizza. It is the best! Get the veggie. You will be happy. Upwards of $20 a pizza and there can be a wait but it's a nice neighborhood bar that has made a big comeback since changing ownership during/after COVID. When the train station across the street is in full swing, you won't be able to get a pizza there in under an hour. Get there now! read more

Haven't been here in probably 20+ years! Went to try the pizza, heard it was really good! Well, it is! Must try it! Hey Dipper Cafe, thanks for the wickid good pizza and great atmosphere Wayne. Thanks for the drinks Ryan, and good to meet you Ruth! See you again, I'm sure!!! Oh it's also nice that the bathroom was neat and clean! Thank you for that, you may think it's irrelevant but it's important to us ladies!!! read more

I have always tried to live by the thought of if you don't have something positive to say then do say anything at all. That's why it's taken me over a week to decide to leave a review. I ordered 2 pizzas on a Sunday evening as most of the pizza restaurants in the area I was staying were closed. A little disappointing but I always enjoys exploring and experiencing different restaurants. The Dipper Cafe ratings showed best opened pizza restaurant. The 2 pizzas I ordered over Yelp were pepperoni and Hawaiian with added sausage and extra cheese. When I got to the bar it seemed like a really nice space to hang out and enjoy drinks and pizza but my order was to go. Anyways, my pizzas was given to me in what seemed like 2 paper bags with writing on top. Um...where are the pizza boxes guys? The second thing I noticed was how light the 2 pizzas were and that both were on flimsy paper plates and the pizza was covered by another paper plate. So, get this! Paper plate, 8 ounce greasy pizza, paper plate and paper bag times 2 because I bought 2 pizzas. Did you catch that I said I received (2) 8 ounce small greasy paper thin pizzas? I paid over $35 for 2 small greasy pizzas that tasted ordinarily plan and flavorless. Obviously, my order was wrong! They put pepperoni on my Hawaiian and I didn't get the extra cheese nor sausage on anything! My time and money would have been better spent on DiGiorno's from Market Basket. Not sure how they received the prior good ratings. I honestly wish you the best. Good luck! read more

Best bar pizza around, very cool spot, will definitely be back , can't say enough good things about the dipper

Tried some new drinks I never seen or heard of and ended up having a good night at a place that just opened. Good to see a fun place in the neighborhood read more

Bar tenders are cool. The bar is completely revamped from the Dipper I remember. Looks great. Good prices on beers and mixed drinks. No food, but that's not a big deal. All in all, I can't say much bad about it. read more
