CASH ONLY!!! Ordered mushroom stromboli, it was good. The dough is very good, it's cheesy and right amount of mushrooms and the sauce even better. Also tried a slice of pizza, mushroom. Definitely a great pizza spot. Parking was difficult, no parking spots across the street ( candy/ice cream store next door busy). Was able to pull up on sidewalk out front quickly to pick up. If you cant walk up step stairs, it will be difficult, but worth it. This is for pick up only. Very nice couple behind counter. read more

Took my son and family here 2 years ago, all 5 of us were delightfully surprised how delicious the pizza was and how friendly the staff was, so accommodating! We now make this a yearly visit. Thank you read more

Never disappoints! Simple and consistant- great combination. It's so good you don't need any toppings, staff is always pleasant and one of the owners is always working and running the crew. A true icon in the area and a "Must try"! read more

See all

I love this pizza! I hate pizza the next day BUT this pizza is still awesome after 2 days! I love the way they do the toppings, the way you can order all different slices, and I love the squares! My all time favorite pizza that has stayed consistent over the many years that I have been going here. My favorite is onions and mushrooms for toppings!!!!! I love that it's not the same ol' same ol' pizza that everyone else has. read more

Very happy I noticed this hidden gem next to the Sarris store. Different than your normal pizza. They serve it on trays and you order individual cuts, which come in squares. Reminded me a little bit of Betos. Everything tasted super fresh. The crust was nice and crisp. The sauce had a good flavor. Overall really good pizza. The breadsticks were amazing as well, highly recommend. read more

Good fast, affordable pizza! Crust is on the thick side but not doughy. Sauce is very good. You buy them by the square slice. or by the square tray. Salads are fresh. Pepperoni rolls are their best item and they sell out. 3 for $5. No tables so it's carry out only. Sarris doesn't share their parking so the locals just park on the curb and wait. Or, park at Sarris and send one person to Sams and everyone else to Sarris. Desert first isn't a bad thing. read more

Sam's Pizza Shop - Menu Board - Sandwiches Near Me - Canonsburg, Pennsylvania

This used to be my favorite pizza. I would drive 45 minutes just to get it. But consistently over the last 5 to 10 years it is just awful. If you work with public you should probably have good customer service skills especially when your pizza tastes like garbage. So in the past I would have highly recommended Sam's but now I would definitely recommend ossos. Their pizza is at least always consistent and taste the same. You never know what you're getting with Sam's. read more

Take a mandolin and pile on the razor thin onions like Sam used to. The pizza itself cannot stand alone without enough toppings.

So if it were up to Me, I give it a 3. If it was up to my wife she would give it a 5. So I met her in the middle at 4. I'm from South Park and she is Char-Houston so she and her family grew up on eating it. I guess its something from her child hood I don't get it ... Anyways on to my review the pizza has potential has a it's an old school thick square slice with decent sauce, little light on the cheese and toppings for the price. Hence my 3 its also a pain to get in and out of as it's literally in Sarris Candy building, so if Sarris is busy good luck with parking. Overall not a bad a bad pizza just not my personal favorite considering there are so many pizza shops near me read more

The best pizza around that people still aren't even aware of! I remember when I lived in Outside of Pittsburgh and we'd come home to visit we'd always get Sam's when we were home! Square slices thin crispy crust. Sweet sauce great product over all. Know that it is cash online before going in, they do have an ATM though for your use. read more

I hadn't been here in years, probably 20 if I am being honest. It was great to see the quality of the pizza hadn't changed. Still as good as I remembered it being. Nothing like a perfect square cut. read more

We enjoyed a tray of made to order slices delivered by the owner personally. The pizza was yummy. The service first rate. Best Pizza in East End Canonsburg -- perhaps the best in the entire borough. read more

What can I say about Sam's Pizza, well it's great, affordable pizza, especially with Covid and inflation with all the cost of good's are through the roof. I was there 1-2-22 and for being 4:30 on a Sunday, they were busy. I am picky on Cheese but I love Sam's Cheese. If you are ever in Canonsburg, PA or going to Sarris Chocolate which is next door, make a pit- stop and get Sam's Pizza. CASH ONLY, no delivery. read more

Try it, you'll like it. In a world filled with pizza shops, this is by far the best one next to Sarris Candy. Not everyone will love it. Heck, some people prefer Osso's or Walther's Hill House in Washington, PA. Sam's is still great. Even new Sam's (Jimmy Z's in Houston, PA) is great. Make America Grate Again, buy Sam's pizza. read more

First time customer. Asked for no onions on my salad and there were plenty. Yes I picked off but allergy to them is real. Also the salad lettuce was shred sandwich lettuce n chopped meat n cheeses etc.. Big no no. Pizza was average. Asked to pay cash or card n I said card. She took card n used a atm standalone machine. Didn't ask if fee was ok n got charged $2.25. Which my bank notified of the charge later in evening. I would've have paid cash had I known. Not a good first impression. $12.25 for 4 cuts pepperoni n a shredded lettuce antipasto. Plus $2.50atm= $14.75 that's a bit much for avg. Oh well. Hagn. read more

Gotta love small town America. The Mayor of Canonsburg actually owns this pizza shop, and his name's not Sam. Let's go back a few years, Sam's pizza was actually owned by an older Italian fellow named Sam. He was a hoot too. Say you wanted ten slices of pizza and he had nine slices ready, you got nine slices. He'd never make a whole pizza (28 cuts is a whole pizza) just to fill an order. On the other hand if you wanted ten slices and he had twelve, you'd GET twelve slices and pay for twelve slices. He was a real Pizza Nazi to borrow a Seinfeldism. Today "Mayor Dave" is a little nice to his customers. The pizza still tastes the same. Sam made sure Dave knew how to make the pizza exactly the way he did. Square cuts, garlicky sauce, a bit on the sour side for my tastes, and lots of cheese. Toppings of course are extra but you get a lot. The crust is crispy and not chewy. Thin and airy. If you're looking for thick pizza with a chewy crust, go elsewhere, they only serve it Sicilian style. Great sandwiches too. Located right next to Sarris' Candy and Ice Cream Shoppe on Adams Ave. read more

If I were on my death bed I would probably request a box of Sam's pizza with mushroom and pepperoni.

First time here, found out the hard way they don't except plastic! There was a ATM inside not a fan about paying $2.50 to get money for a $5 order but it is what it is. Nowhere to sit and eat here so i has to eat out in the car. The crust was good , but and yes there's a but hardly any cheese on it . They add the pepperoni on at the end so it's not cooked and the sauce pretty much tasted like a tomato. Not my style of pizza . But hey I tried it !!! read more

Sam's Pizza Shop - customers at the counter - Sandwiches Near Me - Canonsburg, Pennsylvania

Pizza by the slice! Sam's is my husband's favorite pizza joint in Canonsburg. He's a very frequent customer, and Sam and his family always treat him so nicely! read more

The BEST pizza!!! I live in New Jersey where I'm surrounded by some of the best pizza in the country and I still always look forward to getting Sams every time I'm in town. Crispy crust, handmade sauce, and perfectly melted cheese make it pizza perfection. It's our favorite family tradition every time we come to visit the grandparents. read more

Sam's pizza has consistently been my favorite pizza since I was just a kid and I am now a mother of grown children, Sam has moved, but the people that took over his shop still come through with the magic that Sam started way back when. It's always my first stop when I come home to visit Canonsburg. The only other pizza I have had in my life that is as original and as good as Sam's is Beto's of Pittsburgh. Every other state I have lived in and the dozens of pizza shops I have tried don't even come close to Sam's. Everyone I have ever introduced to Sam's has fallen in love with the pizza too. I wish I knew how to make this pizza myself, and I have tried! Close, but no cigar. The new (now getting old) owners do a great job. I absolutely recommend trying this pizza if you visit Sarris' Chocolate factory. Put an order in, then browse around Sarris and come back to pick up your delicious pie. It's pick up only. THE BOMB! :D read more

I have been going to Sams for 25+ years. Great homemade square slice pizza with fresh toppings. Legendary.

Honestly, if I wanted a pizza that looks and tastes like I made it myself I would not pay $32 for it. Maybe some like thick, mushy crusts and uncooked pepperoni, though. Also, you can't pay with a credit card. But don't worry; they have an ATM in the shop with a $5 fee per transaction. Score! (My first and only order was around July 2015. ) read more

I am just not a fan of this kind of pizza. I suppose its an acquired taste. The pizza is served in squares for starters. Then the sauce is some out of the can sweet sauce. It was really weird. I felt like I was eating the equivalent to the adult version of cafeteria school pizza. The toppings weren't fresh. It was not my thing but cheap and filling. The chocolate shop next door made it worth the trip. That place is really neat. Super decadent chocolate and some of the best Ice cream i think I have ever had. read more

I crave this pizza all the time. My husband and I only eat heavy carbs once a week so I don't get to eat it as much as I'd like, but this pizza is seriously so good. Since I'm not from Pittsburgh, I was really confused about the cold cheese at first, but it somehow works. And I love how the dough is so fluffy and airy yet still crunchy. It's just perfect. I want some now. This review is making me hungry. I'm glad my husband knows how to order because thinking about having to call and order makes me nervous, haha! Oh and you need cash. That also makes me nervous, because I hardly ever carry cash. But despite the qualities of this place that induce anxiety within me, it's worth it! read more

i like the cheese and the crust, i just wish he would deliver. i also dont care for his sauce, i think osso's has a better steak hoagie.

Best Pizza Ever!! The crust is absolutely amazing! Every time I come to Canonsburg, I have to stop by and pick up some Sam's Pizza!

Just there 20 minutes ago owner seems like nice enough guy and pizza is ok but he just pissed off a possible new customer. I order he tells me 25 minutes. I come back with 5 to spare. I wait another 20 as he gives my pizza away to all his regular customers he knows. This is why delis use numbers. Such bull! You just lost a future customer. I will spread the word! Jimmyzs pizza here I come. I was ready to tell him to keep my money he will need with that sort of business practices! read more

Nothing like sams pizza use to be when sam was cookin it up, but through the years the new owner has been tweaking the crust the sauce and it seems to be improving. don't think it will ever be like sams again but its still a great cbg staple pizza and still the best in cbg. the hoagies are a treat try an italian...yum yum.wish they delivered but i think half the luster is going to the shop, use to have sam telling you how many pieces you could have, now you just order and go. good stuff. read more

Awesome pizza place! My wife's favorite for 30+ years.. We grab a tray every time we pass through Canonsburg. .

Crust is thick and crunchy and resembles cardboard. The sauce is bitter and has no seasoning; just a bland tomatoey goo. The pepperoni is put on the pizza after it's cooked, so it's ice cold and floppy. This pizza is going to be gross to any outsider who didn't grow up eating it. The place is clean and the service is very good and friendly, which is the only reason I gave it more than one star. read more

It was terrible the Cajun chicken sandwich didn't have any spice AT ALL and there was to much lettuce

Out of all the pizza in the Pittsburgh area this place is my personal favorite. The pizza is thick with ample amounts of some killer sauce. The topping options are vast and the prices are amazing. 20$ for a tray of pizza is unstoppable in my opinion it's 4 boxes of pizza. Only heads up is they don't take credit cards but they have an ATM right in store so it's really not a problem at all!! If your in the area I recommend stopping by and trying some of the best pizza around!! read more

Sam's pizza is flat out amazing! The best shop in canonsburg and one if the best in the area!

Excellent little pizza spot in Canonsburg. The pizza is extremely cheap, even with toppings. I really like that you can buy pizza by the slice or tray. So often I don't want a whole pie and it's nice to be able to grab a slice or two. This isn't the best pie I've ever had but for the price it can't be beaten. read more

The food is great, but that's not what makes Sam's so special. It's the people, the owners are so friendly and personable. You feel like your visiting very special friends when you walk in... Excellent food and charming service read more

When you walk in you feel canonsburg at its finest. The mayor is the co owner and he does a fine job. The pizza is square slices and very good. I recommend getting the whole tray, you will want some for later! I'm a huge fan. read more

The Italian hoagies from Sam's Pizza Shop are great. I think that the only place that has better Italian hoagies anywhere near here is Fiori's Pizza in Pittsburgh! read more

The pizza seems different than when sam made it. The sqaure slices are small, the crust is good the sauce is just okay. It's in an old house which the Sarris Candy factory had to build around because they refused to just move to another old house. read more

This pizza joint has been the best experience in the area. The dough is fresh and the toppings are just right. Besides the pizza, the hoagies and the strombolis are a feast for the taste buds as well. The friendly welcome by the workers is a nice added bonus as well. You cannot go wrong with Sam's pizza! read more
