Penguin Pizza

Penguin Pizza in Brigham Circle has been serving pizza and beer since 2004. Its specialty pies make room for more than the usual toppings: the Fungus Amongus combines mushrooms, mashed potato, roasted garlic and truffle oil, while the Stinger uses pepperoni, ricotta, green peppers and hot honey. You can also build a simpler pie from the regular topping list.

The menu extends to wings, poutine, salads and sandwiches, so the table can mix pizza with other bar food. It’s a sit-down option on Huntington Avenue for people in Mission Hill or the Longwood area, with takeout ordering available as well. Check the events calendar if you want entertainment with the meal, and the separate brunch hours for a weekend visit. The address is 735 Huntington Avenue.
