Matthew's Pizza
Baltimore’s Iconic Crab Pizza Since 1943
Founded by Italian immigrant Matthew Cacciolo and his son Frank in Baltimore’s Highlandtown neighborhood way back in 1943, Matthew’s Pizza is a Baltimore landmark and the city’s oldest pizzeria. If you’ve never had Baltimore-style pizza, Matthew’s is the best place to experience it: the handmade crust is pressed into an oiled pan, and it bakes up thick, puffy, and almost focaccia-like, with a crunchy outer crust, bright & fresh tomato sauce, and a massive amount of stretchy, lightly browned cheese on top.
You can’t go wrong with their famous Mozzarella, Reggianito, or “Both Cheese” pizzas, but Matthew’s most famous creation is their signature Crab Pizza, topped with both cheeses, onion, a sprinkle of Old Bay, and plenty of fresh Maryland crab. It’s a true taste of Baltimore, and there’s nothing else like it. Matthew’s Pizza is a Baltimore must-visit, and now it’s shipping its legendary pizzas nationwide!
