T. Anthony's
"A BU institution since 1976. Not the best pizza in Boston, but the best pizza at 1am when you need it most. If you graduate without eating here at 2am, did you really go to BU?"

What to Order

- Garlic Knots - perfect side order, underrated
- Chicken Parm Sub - massive and satisfying
What to Avoid
- Anything fancy - this is a slice joint, keep it simple
- Salads - you came here for pizza, commit to it
- During peak hours (11pm-1am weekends) - lines are insane
The Full Review
T. Anthony's is as much a part of BU as the T itself. This cash-only (ATM inside) pizza joint has been feeding drunk and hungry Terriers since before your parents went to college.
The pizza is good, not great, but that's not why you come here. You come here because it's 1:30am, you just left a party on South Campus, and nothing else is open. The line on weekend nights can stretch out the door, but it moves fast.
THE MOVE: Grab a cheese slice or go wild with the mozzarella stick pizza (yes, it's real, and yes, it's exactly what it sounds like - it literally went viral on TikTok). The garlic knots are underrated. Get a side order.
The walls are plastered with BU memorabilia, the music is loud, and the vibe is pure chaos on weekend nights. This is where you'll see everyone from your 8am lecture at 1:30am looking equally disheveled.
Is it the best pizza in Boston? No. Is it the most important pizza in your BU experience? Absolutely. This place has witnessed more post-party confessions than a therapist.
