They have just been named one of the best 25 pizzas in the country by GQ Magazine, even getting a mention on the Today Show. Writing for the June issue, Alan Richman expressed a preference for the pizza with “three cheeses, the dominant one being feta, which adds tang and saltiness”. (Attention GQ, for a style mag your website looks like hell. Sans serif? Really?)
Bob & Timmy’s, Monday to Sunday 11am to 10pm, 32 Spruce Street, 453.2221
tommy’s Tommy’s ToMMY”S Top 3 All I’m Gonna say.
Al Forno is a legacy choice because they popularized wood-grilled pizza in the U.S.. Richman fails to mention them at his own peril, out of fear of no longer getting a table when he’s in Providence.
Very glad to see that Galleria Umberto on Hanover St. in boston got a mention. Their Arancini are the best.
Bob and Timmy’s is tops, far and away. And even better in terms of goodness per dollar.
Oh, thank God. Somebody told me it was Tommy’s that made the list.
And what are you people talking about? Bob & Timmy’s is definitely absolutely for sure my favorite pizza in Providence.
Agreed. It definitely does not deserve to be that high on the list – and also, how did Al Forno only get placed at #18?!
I agree with Ted Rao, Tommy’s Pizza far out tastes Bob & Timmy’s.
I have eaten at Bob & Timmy’s several times over the years, and while it is good, it in no ways qualifies for best pizza in RI, let alone the United States. I think that it’s popularity among food writers like Alan Richman (who I really like) comes from its proximity to the other destinations on Federal Hill. Tommy’s Pizza forever!!!
