Bites Nearby: Pomodoro Pizza & Grill

At the busy intersection of Cedar Crest Boulevard and Tilghman Street are the noticeable landmarks of the Village West Shopping Center, Trexler Park and First Presbyterian Church. But on the OTHER corner, next to the Sunoco station, is a less conspicuous place worth seeking out for a casual meal—.

At a pizza place, first consider the pizza. Pomodoro offers regular and whole wheat crust, all the usual toppings, three sizes of pie, and a selection of gourmet pizzas including chicken bacon ranch, bruschetta, veggie lover and nacho. For diners who like the flavor combinations but want to mix it up a bit, Pomodoro will make any gourmet pizza into a stromboli or calzone. All strombolis and calzones are available in personal and family size.

Other standard fare includes hoagies, hot grinders, burgers, cheese steaks and wings. For extra zip or something just a bit out of the ordinary, Pomodoro carries more than a dozen different seasoning blends for their cheese steaks and wings.  They range from tastes as typical as honey mustard, ranch and Cajun, to more savory options such as Old Bay, adobo, Jamaican Jerk and rosemary garlic.

Rounding out the menu at Pomodoro are salads, a few pasta dishes, and popular snacking sides: fries, pierogies, onion rings and mozzarella sticks. When staying home sounds more appealing than venturing out, remember Pomodoro’s free delivery.
