Pino’s Pizza

Pino’s Pizza has been feeding Cleveland Circle since 1962. The Beacon Street shop serves pizza, Sicilian pizza and subs, with takeout, delivery and catering available. It’s a place to keep in mind for dinner around Boston College, whether you’re ordering for yourself or bringing food back to a group.

The restaurant’s own account of its history describes generations of BC families returning on game days, including grandparents, parents and current students. That connection helps explain why the name comes up so often around the neighborhood. You can order online or call the shop directly. For a late Friday or Saturday visit, call first: its website lists two different weekend closing times, so don’t base a midnight pizza run on an assumption.
