Just an old school pickup only pizza place. Small menu and they do one thing very well. It's the most affordable pie in town and I would argue probably the best. Unlike the larger chains, they don't fill their sauce with sugar. There's one size. It's a 16-in large if you order plain or pepperoni The pies are $11.95 and 12.95 respectively. There's other stuff to order but I don't think I've ever done so. Cans are still a dollar, apiece bottles are more. The people are kind, efficient and helpful. At a time when you can't walk out of the house often for less than $40, it's a really nice option to have.

It's a throwback, which I love...keep it simple...not investing in unnecessary aspects. The pizza is good and the price is amazing! No crazy computers, cash only, The older gentlemen are blunt and not so friendly on phone (no thank you for calling, have a good day, enjoy, any of that) or in store, but the younger guys are better. I don't go for the camaradarie, so it's totally fine! A Delco Best...for taste and price!

I ordered two no frills Cheesesteak. No S&P, mayo, ketchup or fried onions! This is ONE OF THE BEST steaks I've had in a while. Great flavor, plenty of meat, the roll has a great chew and not it wasn't overpriced! There are no fries (not a deal breaker). The place is... compact and parking can be dodgy but it was worth it just for this sandwich. I am the Portnoy of Cheesesteaks (Minus anyone knowing who I Am) so you can trust these taste buds ;-)

Different Cheesesteak #1253. $9.95 cash only. You know I love $9.95. Old School Pizza shop. I got a cheesesteak with fried onions. I saw Liscio’s boxes so I am assuming a Liscio’s roll. The meat had a very good old school grill flavor. I was watching the grillman. He spread the meat out while it cooked. All the meat got to touch the grill and it all got flavor. Decent amount of cheese. The fried onions got a little lost. $9.95 I am not going to complain. I took my cheesesteak to Shipbottom Brewing in Swarthmore. That was a great idea. I love my beer. $.25 for the parking meter. Plenty of room at the bar and a nice clean bathroom.

The BEST pizza this side of New York !! All others in Delco are the minor leagues. Also price is half of the "fancy dancy" so called pizzeria. People are friendly, no BS. Thanks Imperial , please don't ever change.

We love Imperial Pizza. It's been there forever, the guys are great, like a family. Pizza's are ridiculously affordable, $6.95 for a large cheese! They bake with cornmeal on the bottom for what Local Delco natives call a "sandy pizza", crust is thin, the average turnaround time from order to pizza is around 10 minutes. I like extra cheese, but the rest of my family swears by the normal cheese, and pepperoni pizza as well. It's old enough that once you walk in it's like it's own little universe.
