We can all probably agree that we Pennsylvanians are pretty particular about our pizza. That’s no surprise, though, because we have some of the best pizza joints in the country, and one small town in Pennsylvania even holds the title of the Pizza Capital of the World. You’ll find a delicious pizza joint on almost every corner.
If you love a good pizza, you must visit Old Forge, a small town that’s earned props as the Pizza Capital of the World. It is home to more than a dozen pizza shops, and each is worth a visit.

However, did you now that Old Forge pizza isn’t your average pizza? Nope, it’s even better. Instead of pie, locals call it trays because the pizza is made in a rectangular tray. You’ll be served cuts rather than slices.
