Sometimes, I just wanna slice. And it needs to be gooey and the crust has to be on point. $2? Yes. Crust = buttery Cheese = plentiful Sauce = rich Yeah, wood-fired, beer-fueled Dock Street is right across the street, but the difference in price is about half. Fiesta is way too sketchy (even for me) and Colonial sucks. The staff and patrons are friendly. The atmosphere is nothing fancy at all, but I do like witnessing their system where they buzz people into the john (jawn? Ha.). They seem to get busy on the weekends, so, maybe set aside time to order. This place is great. Keep 'em in business!

Got pizza again more recently (just under 2 months ago) with the office and there was no issues this time. Solid meat lovers pizza that was very filling. More orders to come, but, I can award them 4 stars for now.

I don't like the pizza here. I've tried beef pepperoni & ground beef as toppings. Both were unappetizing. Gave it two stars cuz at least they have option of beef pep for those of us who don't eat pork.

I wasn't too fond of the food at first but a friend ordered from here several times. I like the pizza, reasonable prices, local and open late. The pizza sauce and cheese complement each other with a thin crisp crust. I'm not too pleased with the garden salad; too much iceberg lettuce. Penn is my #2 late night spot.

As a kid, my parents (Italian American to the jingoistically myopic marrow) had Opinions on pizza shops. We had one pizza shop we could order from, and it didn't matter that I hate thin crusts. As an adult, I'm way more flexible than them, but I tend to default to having A Pizza Shop, and Penn P. Cafe is it. A large part of that is their convenience to me, but the parklet outside doesn't hurt. Nor does the really quality food and the friendly service. I have a soft spot for family-run businesses, so throw that in the mix too. It's also one of those magical places where customers (aka, "us") actually talk to one another while waiting for our orders. I was tipped off about the INCREDIBLE cheeseburgers, like, for a pizza shop cheeseburger, HOLY HELL, by another customer. I knocked a star off because they took away my cheeseburger platter and the prices here are slightly higher than other similar joints in the area. Doesn't matter, I'll be back for mozzarella stix or hot cakes or 3$ milkshakes or ...

they got my order correct this time! ordered the meal buster pizza and some wings. i'm not a big fan of bleu cheese and forgot to ask for ranch instead but that's not their fault...it's mine. the food wasn't as greasy as the first time i ordered so that was good. it took an hour for my food to arrive (within the estimated timeframe) but they're less than a mile away, so that's a little odd. also, the food arrived warm. not hot. but i blame the 9 degree weather for that. the driver was nice and friendly. i'm glad i gave them a second chance. i will order from them again.

Penn Pizza Cafe is an okay spot. This is not where you go to get gourmet or that amazing cheap eat find. It is where you go to get cheap food that tastes decent. The pizza was better than average. If in the area, I could see having it again. The salad was fresh and tasted well. The mac n cheese was average. It's you average mac n cheese from a place that isn't specializing in it. No complaints, but no home run feeling. But hey, if you are in the area, don't want to break your wallet, and are not super picky, this place does the trick.

If you have worked for 9 hours and you have just stumbled off the 34 and you're starving and you need to be somewhere in 20 minutes you should probably grab a slice of pizza here. Cheap, greasy-good, and the staff is really, really sweet. Please tip them, they're awesome.

Had two cheese slices-very good and inexpensive. Counter person was very sweet. I'll be back!

Good pizza. This is saying a lot for west philadelphia. Crust is a little thicker than I usually like and the sauce honestly could be better, but overall a good pie. It's not a gourmet place. Just simple and better than other places around.

Do NOT confuse this place with Penn Pizza Restaurant on Spruce and 47th -that pizza is really awful, and this place is really quite good, exceptionally good for west philly. I made the mistake yet again last night, and opened the box and knew instantly i picked the wrong Penn Pizza. I cant exactly call and say 'i accidentally ordered from the wrong place and just looking at your gross pizza, Penn Pizza on Spruce, I knew my mistake' Penn Pizza CAFE has lots of gooey thick salty cheese, decent crust, tangy sauce. much recommended. Penn Pizza RESTAURANT has the exact opposite - the slices come out of the box cheese completely congealed and not attached to the other slices. it ws inedible, so we ate the fries and i said i would 'doctor up' the pizza tonight by adding mozzerella and toppings to try and salvage it.. probably wont work. this review ended being more of a rant on the OTHER Penn pizza, but this one on Catherine Street is quite yummy.

This place has good pizza, respectable prices, and great customer service! They are relatively new in town and the staff always seems to care about the success of the business. Because they are new, they do not have tons of options (ice-cream flavors, fat free dressing for salads, etc.). I have noticed some sketchy clientele and these people are a lot more patient than I would ever be. Their pizza is good, pretty sure they use quality ingredients. I had the chicken ceaser salad and although it was $7.50 (with tax), it was enough for two meals! I have never not been able to finish a salad until this place, I see lots of potential, great place!

Ordered delivery from here through eat 24. A complete waste of money, waited 1 hour 15 mins for the food which I let slide because it was Super Bowl Sunday but our food was awful. My cheesesteak hoagie was so soggy I had to completely remove the bread. My friend ordered wings and they weren't even cooked through, yes RAW meat. And they were just fried not buffalo like we ordered. I only got a refund for the wings from eat 24. I'll never order from here again.

What a solid slice of pizza. Not too stingy on the sauce and the crust had an almost tender/ crisp quality to it. I really enjoyed it and so did the "picky" person I was with. I think it's the best cheap slice of pizza on Baltimore Ave.

This little pizza joint just popped up in West Philly and it is very good! West Philly was lacking seriously tasty pizza, but no longer! They are fairly priced, great crust, lots of cheese and other toppings. The owner and his family are darling! I almost don't want to give away my secret about this gem, but I want them to succeed.

The pizza is better than many in the area but read the fine print. I merely clicked the buy one get one free pizza special. I assume it means that. but if you read further it means buy one get a small cheese free. I didn't have enough pizza for the group and when I called and admitted my mistake they said they'd bring another but i'd have to pay delivery charge again. I thought they could have waived that.
