About Rival's Sports bar & Pizza

TVs in every cardinal direction, a projector for the big game, drink specials, wings, and burgers—Rival's Sports Bar & Pizza easily hits all the notes of a lively neighborhood sports bar. But then there are the flourishes that set it apart, such as the piping hot New England–style pan pizzas, which are tradition in the 20-year-old family spot. The dough is made in-house daily, the cheese is fresh, and the pies are loaded with enough veggies and meats to upend the food pyramid. But the menu is vast, and also includes calzones, gyros sandwiches, and smothered steak tip dinners. The atmosphere is jovial and not only for the food; football season is especially raucous, as TVs broadcast the big game and drink specials help keep even the most mundane umpire discussion interesting.
