Customers rave about the diverse menu, highlighting unique creations like the chicken wing pizza and the taco pizza, proving that the shop excels in both creativity and flavor.

One of the best pizzas in Scranton for sure. Thin, crispy crust and a great old-school pizza shop vibe. The peppadew, salami, and red onion pie is an amazing combination.

Best pizza in NEPA! My family has been frequenting Nicholas' since the 1950's. A great family-owned business serving great tasting pizza. Try it, and you'll be convinced as well.

Nicholas' Pizza is that pizza place that has been with us forever. Located on N. Washington Ave in Scranton, Pennsylvania, is that home away from home. During a challenging life event with my Mom, we were somehow told about the taco pizza. So today was the day to try it, and omg, it was incredible! They should really sell tacos, too. Pepperoni is always a favorite, and the plain is a win any time. Oregano and a sauce just right is what kept us loving Nicholas' for life. Warning, You can definitely eat a tray yourself, so get one for each person. They're taking some days off starting next week, so get there this weekend or when they return. Thanks, Nicholas' for being so delicious and kind.

This restaurant has been special to my family for years now. I hadn't visited since I was a kid, but I went to introduce my husband to the food and restaurant itself a few weeks ago for some lunch. Very affordable food, good service and incredible atmosphere. Glad it's still as nice as it was when I was a kid growing up with it :)
