“ Absolutely loved this place! Stopped in for a plain cheese (cause my little wildflower only likes cheese pizza) and some glass bottle drinks (they have Dr Enuf!) and left happy! Our server, Sarah, made the experience amazing, the atmosphere was very comfortable and welcoming. They got a spot with records and a turntable so you can play tunes while you're there! (Just smelling the records was heaven lol) Service was quick, and the brick oven pizza was delicious! ”
“ This was a very unique warm atmosphere on a cold night to sit and enjoy great . The staff was truly welcoming and told us about the area and where to hike and enjoy Johnson city. We had fun going through the old record album's and the staff will play them for you. You can bring your own drinks if you like and try to get in early because they also are busy filling to-go orders. The place smells wonderful. The real cheese on our was truly delicious and the beef pepperoni was amazing. Will be back in the spring and Bringing friends to share. ”
“ This place is unapologetically simple. No frills. A bit of funky and amazing pizza. Place your order at the counter. I insist you try the trust option. It has never failed me. I don’t get to come here often but when I’m in town I try to get here. Pizza is served in a to go box even if you are eating in. There are paper plates to grab and soda or water from a cooler. Simple. But works. Suggestion for the management. Don’t berate employees where customers can hear. That’s quite uncomfortable ”
“ Are you tired of the same old pizza? This is the solution! We've been enjoying Scratch for many years. They are tastier, fresher and stronger than ever. Think I'm joking? Drop in and ask for the "Trust" pizza. What's a "Trust" pizza? There's only one awesome way to find out. Friendly and helpful staff will guide you as you choose any of the pizza and toppings that fit the mood. They only use the best ingredients and it shows up in the flavors! Don't forget to try the peat cheese bread. Please enjoy, and we might see you there. ”
“ It's definitely one of the best pizza places I've tried in the Tri-cities. Made fresh, not overly greasy, fresh quality ingredients. If you prefer a thinner crust with a good crunch/chew, then this is the place. It also has a really fun vibe and wild setup. Staff was also super friendly and helpful. I would also definitely recommend the cheese sticks since they are so good! ”
“ Google led us to this unique local pizza place. We were in town for a basketball tournament and wanted something locally owned. Google didn't disappoint. Their name is befitting in that everything is fresh and made from scratch. The staff were very helpful in order selections. Pizza came out quick and in boxes. We ate right out of the box which was fine by us. Pizza comes with fresh dried whole red pepper. What a unique option. Be careful to touch your eyes after breaking up the peppers. They warn you but my hubby still did. They have bottled drink options. Unsure on alcohol. Cool feature is the vinyl record player with a plethora of records to choose from. They encourage you to pick something and play. We parked behind the house/restaurant which was small so I am guessing you normally park across the street. Friendly and yummy. Can't go wrong! ”
“ True to the name, the ingredients tasted fresh and made from scratch. We had two pizzas both with the French crust base, which almost has the texture of fresh pita bread. The restaurant does written ticket style ordering, so you can pick exactly what ingredients you want. Excited to become regulars here! ”
“ Glad to see you back open!! My boyfriend who grew up here was SO excited to be able to take me here!! The food was amazing, and the staff was kind. We brought some of our own toppings and they gladly put it on the pizza for us. ”
