My Favorite Hang out, to Destress! – As a nurse at Childrens Hospital, I get to the Penguin about twice a week, and it is my favorite place to go to any time of the day, in the beginning it was my lunch hang out, but now I tend to go more in the evening, it has a great vibe to the place. The pizza is great, and you have hundreds of different beers to get drunk on, but for me its the ralaxation of the place, I will have a slice or pasta, a glass of wine and for the most part destress, and read a book and listen to the Juke bo... read more

Service and quality have really gone really downhill – I loved this place until recently. A few examples: *They had the best smoothies around but they stopped serving them. *Their pizza has gone way down in quality. They have almost no topping on them and the crust is paper thin. *We had a very ditzy, and somewhat rude, waitress who forgot that we were there. She disappeared and we were stuck there for two hours before we ever got a bill. Then, she had the nerve to add a gratuity (even though we were just in a group of four!... read more

Great place, Hot Staff, Huge Beer Variety – Penguin Pizza, is a cool place. Gourmet Pizza, they are very inventive. After years of average pizza. Penguin has shown Boston what you have been missing. It has a European feel about it. The owner is from London, bar staff from Ireland. They have a beer club, they have over 150 beers. It is a hard place to leave once you get comfortable. My favorite Pizza is the Three Tomato, a pesto base, with Yellow, Plum and Cherry Tomatoes. I have also enjoyed thier Pasta. They have a great Ca... read more

The Best around! – Penguin Pizza have got it right they make great thin crust Pizza. They also have about a hundred odd beers. I read about Penguin Pizza in the Boston Globe Calander section. And was impressed by their review. I stopped by, and have been stopping by ever sence. It has a great vibe to it. It represents the neighborhood. I have seen the Mayor in there. Old folks and College Kids. My favorite Pizza is called the Seasonal it has Butternut Squash, leeks and Goat cheese amoung its ingrediants. I just joined their ... read more

Good. – I work in the Longwood area so I get to have penguin pizza on a regular basis. I love their thin crust. The variety of toppings is also wonderful (duck, squash, plus the regulars like good old pepperoni). If you want to be impressed, try one of their unique pizzas becuase I find plain cheese to be a bit boring there. The waitresses are always rushed but still efficient if not the friendliest around. Unfortunately it is a VERY loud place.My husband and I had to yell at each other across a 2 person table to hear each o... read more

Great Pizza – Great pizza. Flat, hand thrown, good use of ingredients. They use hand cut bacon...irish style. Best Hawain pizza I've ever had. The butternut squash seasonal is perfect. And they deliver.
