The wood-fired pizza is amongst the best I have tasted in New England. When Pigs Fly makes it handmade, all-natural wood-fired, Neopolitan style pizzas with a chewy sourdough-like crust, smoky flavor and fresh-tasting tomato and cheese blend that includes mozzarella made fresh daily. It’s hard not to be the pizza too quickly as the mouthwatering taste gets right to the taste buds.

My favorites? Definitely the pepperoni, as pictured above, as well as the Margherita…
