The Birthplace of South Shore Bar Pizza! 🍕 | Cape Cod Cafe, Brockton MA

If you love pizza, you owe it to yourself to visit the "Heavyweight Champion" of the South Shore! This week, Wicked Bites heads to the original Cape Cod Cafe in Brockton, Massachusetts. Established in 1939, this local institution has been serving up their legendary lacey-edged bar pizza for over 80 years. We’re sitting down with third-generation owners Jeremy and Jonathan to talk about the family legacy, their secret to the perfect "cup and char" pepperoni, and how they manage to ship 10,000 pizzas a day to fans everywhere. But it’s not just about the pies! We also dive into their massive "scratch-made" turkey club sandwiches and their newest venture: keeping the tradition alive at the historic Italian Kitchen just down the street—home of the world’s best meatballs fried in 60-year-old cast iron skillets. In this video: The history of the original South Shore Bar Pizza. A look at the "Lacey Edge" crust and homemade ingredients. The difference between "Old School" and "Cup and Char" pepperoni. A taste of the famous Italian Kitchen meatballs. Don't forget to LIKE, COMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more Wicked Bites!
