Contoocook Pizza Parlors

By Joshua Isabelle

In the small village of Contoocook New Hampshire the locals have two choices of pizza right in town only minutes from their homes. On the slightly more expensive side, there is the choice of Dimitris Pizza and Subs, right off of Park Ave in the center of town. It’s in a cute “small town” building. The property is clean and well kept. Inside this pizza parlor is very comfortable and a lovely setting which makes it a great place to bring the family. The service is amazing and all who work there are friendly. The pizza is tasty and enjoyable. The crust is semi-thick with minimal sauce and a thick layer of melted mozzarella cheese baked on top with your choice of toppings.

On the cheaper side there is Louie’s Pizza. Located also on Park Ave, in the same plaza as Colonial Village. Inside is very laid back and not so clean. The environment very comfortable; the floors are stained and dirty. The pizza is thin and taste-less with crust that is hard and undesirable. The cheese is thin and over cooked. The customer service isn’t preferable due to the fact that Louie doesn’t speak English that well. The building is unappealing not maintained. There is trash and debris on the property.

If neither of the choices are preferred there is Charlie Mac’s locate in the center of Warner just ten minutes from town. The pizza is very different then the original style. The crust is thin but well cooked, the cheese is also very good and the pizza itself is much larger the average pizza. It is a nice change every once in a while from eating the same pizza in town.
