Ok, let's talk pizza. By far the tops of the town is Bristol House of Pizza. Get any kind anyway. They also have a killer Buffalo Chicken Calzone. People have been know to drive hours to get one. Pro Tip: Order takeout on busy nights as delivery can take some time.

Ok, this is a little bit of a drive (30-40 mins with good road conditions) but we had to throw it in our guidebook because it's been regarded as one of the best sandwiches in the world (by us). Order up your favorite made to order sandwhich or go with a house classic. The Rueben Balboa (DO NOT ORDER RYE BREAD) is toasted sandwhich perfection. Pro Tip: Order anything as a "balboa" and the sandwhich will come in sub form and be toasted. This isn't your neighborhood Quiznos.
