DO NOT GO, IT'S NOT WORTH IT. I was refused service for... requesting vegetables on my sub. Having read reviews, I came open to an owner/operator who might be unique, even eccentric. But this is unacceptable. She understood that I had hungry kids waiting. She still asked me to leave for asking for vegetables on a sub. FRESOLONES IS A HAZARD TO FAMILIES. I have a lot of love in my heart, and wish her and her family all the best. But if you read this, please drive down the road to Lincoln for GH Pizza instead. And if friends and family of the owner are reading, please consider how to help her. read more

amazing food. Great Italian cook interesting atmosphere but the pizza and everything is delicious.

This food is seriously amazing and legit Italian pizza! The Italian woman who owns it cooks everything herself. She is hard of hearing so you need to ring the bell for her to come out to take your order. You just must have patience with her as she is doing it all on her own. The back outdoor seating has a little creek you can view. Worth the wait! read more

Fresolone's Pizza Pasta & Sub - 4 Topping 16inch Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Lincoln, New Hampshire

The older woman behind the counter, doesn't come out unless you ring a cow bell to get her attention. We were 1st in line. 2 married couples that are friends came in after us. They each had 3 year old kids. The kids were being 3 year old, and making 3 year old noises. The woman "Barbara" is her name. Then complains about the noise the kids are making and it's hurting her hearing aids. Not once, not twice, literally like 5 times. TO THE PARENTS FACES. I was taken a back by this woman's audacity to insult the kids to the parents faces. The woman went in the back and we all commiserated about how bad she was. The pizza looks like a digirno. Kinda taste like one too. read more

Fresolone's Pizza Pasta & Sub - It is home made or is it Digorno? - Pizza Near Me - Lincoln, New Hampshire

Amazing pizza! Some of the best I've had Reviews made us weary but she was very pleasant to us read more

The owner is an asshole, answered the phone as "freselones, how can I help you?".. I asked if they could make just pasta with butter (I have a picky 4 year old ).. She then says, you have the wrong number and hangs up. Judging by the other reviews I've seen since calling, I would highly recommend avoiding the place. This lady is obviously a drunken idiot who doesn't give two shits about her business or customers and clearly needs to retire read more

It's clear that this is a one-woman show. Yes, food options are limited to mostly pizza, and you won't get the attention you normally would at a fully-staffed restaurant...but if you decide to take a chance knowing these flaws, you'll leave with one of the best homemade (not frozen) pizzas you've ever eaten. Tips: Plan to only order pizza but ask if there's anything else available, call 20-30 mins ahead to place your order, and give this lady a break once you arrive. read more

This place was absolutely awful. Unfortunately we hadn't read the yelp reviews before pulling in on a Saturday night after visiting the ice castles. The sign on the road is attractive and read "pizza, subs, salads" so we were excited as a family of 5 to each enjoy some yummy dinner. My oldest daughter and i ordered a veggie sub, my youngest ordered a bit, my husband ordered a meatball sub, and my son ordered a hamburger sub. I wish we had known that the owner hates making anything other than pizza. It was 6:34 when our order was placed. It was odd that she was all alone in the restaurant, taking orders, ignoring phone calls, and only a few patrons, but we hoped for the best and sat to wait for our food. Then we opened yelp and read all of these reviews, wondering what our fate would be. Soon we began hearing the owner complain to other patrons about people who come to a pizza place and order other items besides pizza. She actually told people coming in that she would only accept pizza orders, nothing else, not even a beverage. Time passed. We saw pizzas come in and out, no sign of our food. Our kids were getting hungry. There was literally no sign of our sandwiches, or other customer's sandwich orders behind us. When she emerged with another pizza, i requested our order be canceled. She yelled back at me "when i have time!" She came out maybe 5 minutes later (with another pizza) and began complaining to other patrons about me, stating that "some people like to mess with her, ordering lots of different items". At this point my husband got up, demanding our money back and this time she listened. we were in the restaurant for over 45 minutes. We found a lovely pizza place called GH pizza and we were fed within 15 mins! read more

ARE YOU KIDDING? Came down from a six hour hike with wife and daughter and her friend and they wanted pasta so we came across this place. I'm a chef and frequent the area, but haven't ever stopped in here. It was a busy tourist weekend and there was only one car in the parking lot while all the other places were busy, usually a red flag, but I thought maybe they just opened? Inside there was a bell to be rung for service, a little after I rang it a grimy old lady appears and asks us if we know what we want (there was a menu written on cardboard cutouts on the counter. I made a joke and said "were all very hungry, I hope we are in the right place" She said "I don't have a lot of time" and walked back into the kitchen. We sat there like "WTF just happened" and left. read more

The food was amazing. The service was incredibly fast, all things considered, and the ambiance was amazing. Barbara is wonderful.

This is an EXPERIENCE ... if you go into this establishment with the understood expectations of customer service as we know it today, you will be distraught. Bring cash. Order two or less items from the menu. DO NOT ADJUST THE MENU with your unjust adaptations. It's an elderly, sit-com character of a woman and she does not EF around. Heed this advice and you will have a three star experience. I did not meet the requirements to get the food, but I heard it was good. NO SOUP FOR ME! read more

I gave it one star because zero was not an option. She screamed at me on the phone when I asked if she was open. I said OK I'll come in to order because I couldn't find a menu online. Upon arrival there was no one at the counter so I waited and eventually called out to he kitchen. A young man came over to buy a soda and I let him go first as she literally used the F bomb saying he had to spend at least $5 to use his debit card. She screamed at me again because I was holding a red solo cup. I said it's just iced tea but can throw it away for me if she would like and she walked away never taking my order. She told me to write down my order which was just a sandwich. I thought I was all set when she came back from the kitchen and berated me again about my cup and said she will not make my order. Clearly, the craziest experience of my life. read more

Awful service. We waited over 45 minutes for two subs and two pizzas. We started to get antsy and the woman openly criticized us to another guest saying "when they order like that, they know what they're doing." Unbelievably rude, two other groups walked out while we were ordering because they couldn't get their order in. Do not go in unless you plan to wait and be treated poorly. read more

Hard to even give one star. The owner insulted my family and 3 year old daughter multiple times. She said she has a hearing aid and my daughter was being too loud and it hurt her ears. We took her out to the car in the cold to wait instead of sitting inside. She was the ONLY employee working so the food took so long. We would have cancelled our order if we hadn't already paid. Do not give this sh*t hole your money. read more

Oh man, I thought it was just the night(s) I walked in there but reading the reviews it's not because of the staffing shortages. I'll say, the pizza was good. And they were the only ones who actually answered their phone in the area. But it's being run by 1 older lady who is half deaf (says she can't hear the bell) who just can't do it all alone. The first night I walked out. The second night I had a teenager who claimed he *needed* pizza! read more

DO NOT EAT NO MATTER HOW DESPERATE!!!! "Barbara" is the name soulless creature that man's the counter of this "Italian restaurant " despite a VERY limited menu. This alone wouldn't warrant a bad review but for time sakes I shall state the key notes of my meal. -Barbara ( old lady with glasses) is extremely rude - she called a disabled man 'slow' - yelled at a hiker for wanting pizza.....at a pizza place - Barbara also fails to mention a 20% up charge if you using a credit card!!!!!! No sign or warning. Yay.... - Working by her self....I waited for my meal for a hour and a half ( I had already paid a hearty 50 dollars for my meal) - RODENT INFESTATION!!!!! THERE WAS A CHIPMUNK ( I took the liberty of naming him Nutty) IN THE DINNING AREA!!!!!! - My pie was raw and nasty. Wasn't even cut all the way through. I had to tear through it. - I payed extra for my Buffalo tenders just for my buffalo tenders to lack Buffalo sauce. - OMG THE BATHROOM WAS OUT OF A STEVEN KING NOVEL!!!!!! Also this is where Nutty was found :) - Place was dirty - Customers ignored or yelled at - I will admit to liking the decor. It reminds me of my grandmas house in a creepy but nostalgic way. - Severely understaffed. Poor Bab's was the only one working and BOY did she let us know. The thing is; if you are the sole cleaner,cook, and cashier for a moderately sized restaurant either HIRE people or shut. It. down. - This place made me download yelp. My closing words are only this; should you see a good review it's likely from a friend or local that can't bare to break Bab's heart. And I understand. She's your sassy grandma figure.It can be hard to tell someone you know so well the hard truth of their behavior. And honestly if it was just bad food I wouldn't be writing this review. But Barbara's behavior was so ATROCIOUS towards customers I simply cannot let this slide. She called a poor disabled man SLOW for Christ's sake.( She never even took his order!!!!).Nothing excuses this behavior.Shame on you Bab's. For Shame. -GP read more

This pizza is fantastic and tastes home made. The shop is run entirely by a single elderly widow, Barbara. That's right. Front register, phone, pizza oven, trash, cleaning. Everything. She's hilarious, a gem, and a good time. She kept us entertained for close to an hour and gave us some of her scratch made cookies free for the road. The menu is of course limited, she showed us what it used to be when she had help, but what she is able to do tastes fantastic and is clearly done with care and a lifetime of experience. The decor and furniture are old and dated, but considering the owner operator is entirely alone, the place is clean. A glimpse through the open door to the kitchen looked organized and cleaner than most chain restaurants. I imagine many of the negative reviews come from guests experiencing a woman well beyond the age of retirement single-handedly running a busy Pizza restaurant. I'll be back every time I'm in the area. For what it is, its fantastic. For what that woman is able to do alone, its incredible. Thank you Barbara! read more

Best pizza I've ever tried. If you're in the area, make sure you check this place out. Authentic.

I'm writing about visits to this place over the last 20 years, mostly at least 10 years ago. My wife and 2 young sons would walk across the street from our motel, and have lunch, while I was usually out hiking. They were OK with the food, I thought is was lousy. Mama Fresolone was obviously bonkers, but after awhile you could work with her. She seemed to be on her best behavior after giving up diet Pepsi back in the day, but these recent reviews make me wonder. Oh, she thought diet Pepsi made her crazy. Anyway, I stopped in there last year after a long absence, ordered a bottle of beer, and just sort of hung around while she took forever to make my lousy lunch. The back of the place is a great place to hang out, and Mama Fresolone ain't so bad if let her vent a little. Actually chatted it up with the old girl. I'll be back. Bad personality is better than no personality. read more

I tried to order pizza for pick up from the hotel across the street, she must have had caller iD and told me if I wanted pizza I could walk across the street and get it! Then Hung up on me! I read the reviews before calling but still sat there in shock! No thanks I'll take my money elsewhere. read more

So I read through the reviews before giving my own. Because I thought maybe she just had a bad day. I'm assuming the one nice review was by someone who knew her or a local. I don't see how that woman could be kind or hilarious in any way. I was working a wedding in the area, I had a break where I was able to eat after I had set up and before the wedding would start. So I googled the closet place for food as I was limited for time. I found this place, called and orders a sub. I arrived about a minute later and saw they had pasta. I'm a pasta fanatic. So excitedly I ran inside and stated that I had just placed an order for a sub but I also wanted pasta. She yelled at me! And said she didn't have time for this and went back in the kitchen saying that I didn't want my sub. It was me and my sister together, I wanted both. She had one other table in the whole restaurant who then looked at me laughed and said "she's crazy" as they were having a similar experience with her rude demeanor. She came back out and I tried to explain that I wanted both but long story short, I left crying, and drove an extra 10 minutes to McDonald's. read more

My husband and I, agaisnt all the negative reviews, went here Sunday. We absolutely love Barbara!!! She is great, we stayed, ate and talked with her for 2 hours. The pizza was absolutely delicious. She is a sweet lady to talk to. Not sure what people are complaining about, maybe you all need to have some patience! She is the only person in there, she does it all. We will absolutely being going back their next year!!!! Great food and a great time!! read more

****HORRIBLE**** My sister & I walked in to this place & waited a few minutes for service. Nobody came but we noticed a cowbell w a sign that said to Ring for service. Two customers that were there told us to keep ringing louder bc the lady/owner was hard of hearing. We rang several times & also a gentleman walked in and seemed familiar w this place rang the bell for us. The lady finally emerged from the kitchen & proceeded to yell at us for "harassing" her!! She didn't let us get a word in edgewise & proceeded to tell is there are plenty of other places across the street we can go to. I was appalled at her lack of customer service &!profound rudeness. How has this woman been in business for over 30 years??!! Apparently she is the owner/cook/cashier all the above bc she has no staff & Im not surprised! Judging by the reviews, this is her normal treatment of customers. She needs some serious help. read more

RUN!!! I had 3 hungry kiddos with me and we stopped at the first place we saw that offered pizza. The lady was nice and welcoming at first, but mistook our order of Broccoli pizza for sausage (we're vegetarian), blamed us for giving her the wrong order, yelled at my children several times ("are you deaf? I said your pizza was ready!" and "get out of here!") refused to remake or refund us and just disappeared into the kitchen while I was trying to talk to her. This is not how a business works, I hope she enjoyed the $20 she got for the uneaten pizza but it won't keep this crappy place afloat. read more

The owner and older woman (Barbara I believe is her name) was rude, bad attitude, unprofessional, unfriendly, no manners and disrespectful. She shouldn't be working if she's that miserable and not take it out on her customers. Her behavior was shocking, unacceptable and scared my young granddaughters too, yelling at us. I'd never recommend that place, and warn them to avoid going there. She'd rather ignore you than wait on you. She had no worker helpers there, so now I can see why, as nobody would want to work for her. People behind me left feeling uncomfortable too. We did too. She was horrible and it bothered me as I never was treated that way before, ever. I'll never forget how mean she was and my young granddaughters felt traumatized by her too. It was a Shocking & Horrible experience! Avoid that place for your own sake. She shouldn't be in business with the public. As I read other reviews of that place, they're bad as well. read more

we read quite a few negative comments & feel this should be said. The owner, the hard-working woman at the resturant is nearly deaf. Wearing hearing aids sometimes makes people feel they are giving up their independent selves. Also, she was not born or raised in New Hampshire, her hometown birthplace. She fits right in at her "home". We thought the pizza was good, oily but good. She is a one woman show who served at least a dozen customers in the half-hour we ate. read more

My husband and I went snowmobiling in Lincoln NH and after riding for 2 hours I can into the restaurant to eat. I had put my jacket in the booth. When I came out to order she completely freaked out on me saying that I had to pay 5 for the bathroom... I was trying to order. The other patrons said they would have left and totally agrees I did nothing wrong. They were horrified right along with me. read more

This was by far the worst place I have ever been to. The woman who runs it is senile and works the front and back alone. She does not remember any of the orders. When we received the wrong order we asked her to change it or refund us and she refused and told us she would slap us in our faces. It was SO dirty and rodents running in and out of the building. It took almost 2 hours to receive the wrong order to have to leave to get other food. This woman should not be running a business. She is the most disgusting disrespectful person I have ever met. Do not waste your time and go there. read more

The menu is fairly simple and we ordered a large pizza. While we waited several other customers had come in. They had to wait about five to ten minutes before even ordering. The owner was quite rude to several customers (not us), making comments about taking too long to order and then when she had forgotten to start someone's order she got upset when the man, who was not rude, asked for his money back. The pizza itself was ok, the crust had a strange taste with it. read more

No one answered the phone so we walked over. Locked eyes with the woman working as we walked in to get a take out pizza. We proceeded to ring the bell for service and no one ever came to help us! The restaurant was completely empty so it seemed odd to not get any service. After waiting about 5 minutes we walked out. Their open sign should just say closed. read more

If I could give it no stars I would. The place was a mess and the customer service was worse. You're supposed to ring the bell for service but no one comes out to service you. Didn't even eat the food. Waited for it forever and then just walked out. This lady owes me $45. Do not eat here!!!! read more

Pizza was good ... clearly can tell she doesn't use frozen crap. I would suggest just calling ur pizza in , she has a very limited menu , pizza and some apps . I stood there for sometime , waiting . I was hungry and wasn't running to different places . We waited , worth the wait . I almost didn't go because all the bad reviews of her rudeness . She was really nice , she was alone ... she took a few minutes out to have a conversation with my boys and I . Sometimes I wouldn't judge a book by its cover per say . I didn't have high hopes going in , food was good . I would order again ( but definitely call it in ) . Although very nice , I could tell she takes no bull , gets her sh*t done and doesn't care . I have a 4 star because of the timing it took just to take my order , she seen me walk In ... she asked if I was there to pick an order up , I said no .... She said quickly take ur time , and went out back ... literally 10-15 minutes later she came back out , after ringing the bell. BUT good was fine quickly read more

For some messed up reason, I have been here several times. Both in summer and winter. Always terrible service. If I could give it zero stars I would. First, the ordering process is pitiful. You stand there like an idiot waiting for somebody to finally slither out of the back to take your order. Forget about asking for recommendations. You'll get a blank stare followed by "I dunno. Just pick something." Every time I have gone it's been the same miserable woman working all alone. She hates you, you hate her, she hates your kids. It's kinda of magical. Sort of like being served by Oscar the Grouch in person. Anyway....just do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. Or if somebody can convince her to sell the place to an owner who loves that type of work, it could really be a cool spot. read more

Well, 1 star is the lowest it would go otherwise, negative 1 star is better suited. Waited 15/20 minutes for someone to acknowledge we were seated in their dining room. And right after we just had a conversation with her ( owner ) . We were the only one there! Anyway, we wanted to order food and obviously eat it. However, the older women, alone gave an attitude when we decided to leave because we wanted to eat, the same day. $5.76 for two sodas and, she became confrontational because I couldn't be helped and that she wasn't good enough and so and so on. Her words not mine. Very poor attitude, service, kitchen was filthy with dirty dishes. Needless to say, we decided to eat around the corner at GH Pizza. Best pizza and service and their grinders were also great!!!!! read more

We walked in with a party of eight for lunch. The owner (older woman) was one of the rudest people we have met. One of the kids walked in with a frozen water bottle and she flipped out about bringing in the water. She would benefit from a customer service lesson or two. She lost our order and we will never step in there again. I would highly recommend not putting yourself through her non-sense. read more

This place is one of the last little gemstones this town has left with restaurants. After places like pegs, longhorn, dads, and even the Italian place where imperial palace is now have left this is one of the pillars of one of this community. Don't like the owners attitude? Then you try running a busy pizza place for 30+ years every single day with nothing but yourself and fresh ingredients from scratch. You don't get food made like this anymore. Its a dying breed. And its sad to say because this pizza is AMAZING. If you got an hour to kill and some family/friends who like the rough and grumble people who have some stories to tell. Stop by and you wont be disappointed. Im gonna miss this place when they finally close down. Four generations of my family have came here every year on vacation. And we will continue to until it closes down. read more

--DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY OR TIME-- Called to place an order for a single sub. Lady picked up the phone and sounded like I was a nuisance to her. I asked for a sub with everything on it. She said that there was another customer waiting to place an order in person. She then hung up the phone and left me hanging with no order placed. Is that how you treat paying customers over the phone? I called back with the intent to try again with her foul attitude. She picked up the phone only after 30 rings, heard me ask to place an order, then hung up the phone once again. I can no longer call back as I've been blocked from calling. Not too disappointed as I can see from the reviews that this dogshit eatery has about 0 positive experiences. Funny seeing the fake 5-star reviews they write on their own Yelp. Seriously, this lady that runs it by herself needs to shut down or hire staff. So poorly ran and it's obvious that you simply cannot run an entire eatery alone. read more

Is it possible to give less than 1 star? We arrived around 8:20pm on a Saturday night. My husband and boys went inside to grab water. My husband asked if we could put them on our tab as we were on the deck and wanted to order dinner. She hollered at him, "No" and told him to grab a menu. So he put the water back and we sat at our table waiting to order. After about 10-15 minutes I went inside to see if I could order and a nicer woman (who was not the owner) informed me that they were closed for the night. I didn't realize that the first woman we encountered WAS the owner and I suggested that we would have appreciated knowing when we first arrived that they were closed, as opposed to 20 minutes later. Wow! Just don't bother. It is not worth the irritation. We were staying at the Mt. Coolidge Motel and the owner told us that the pizza place owner was "crazy" but we had NO IDEA. PRO TIP - Wait until the place is closed and bring your own snacks and drinks and sit on the back deck. Otherwise, I can NOT condone supporting this establishment. read more

The lady behind the register told me while ordering that I talked slow "you know; like those people who drive 20 in a 60 MPH speed zone and you just want to slam right into them". She asked to repeat the order 3 times because she went off on a tangent about something. Stopped by to read yelp reviews before the food comes. Food is nothing special... It shouldn't be that hard to be nice. read more

Fresolone's Pizza Pasta & Sub - Spaghetti - Pizza Near Me - Lincoln, New Hampshire

See all

The ordering: When we got here there was a short line of 2 parties in front of us. It took us a least 5 minutes before we could even order because the "older woman" behind the counter just went on about side conversations about random things that I didn't really hear. The wait: The wait for our food came out in about 15-20 minutes except our pizza. We waited another 10 minutes for the pizza, and nothing. So we had to go to the counter and ask if it is almost done yet. And he said and she called our number multiple times (which she didn't) so I just asked for a box because we went hungry after our other food. The food: The food was great. The cheese on the pizza was absolutely delicious and we all loved it. read more
