Bocce Club Pizza

Since 1946, Bocce Club Pizza has been serving up pizza and more. Founder Dino Pacciotti had worked at the Bocce Club in Buffalo, which served drinks and snacks, and also had bocce ball courts. Dino had the opportunity to purchase the club and soon developed his own pizza recipe. He moved the pizzeria to Bailey Avenue in Amherst in 1954 and later opened a second location on Hopkins Road in Williamsville in 1988. The pizza dough and sauce are made from scratch daily. In addition to a variety of pizzas, including the original 18-inch bocce pizza, they have specialty pizzas like white pizza and chicken finger pizza. The menu also features chicken wings, boneless wing bites, chicken fingers, salads, subs, wraps, and burritos. The restaurant is strictly takeout and delivery is available. Partially baked pizzas can be shipped overnight nationwide to friends and relatives.-Christine A. Smyczynski
