Cristy's Pizza
About This Spot
Cristy's Pizza feels like a cherished local tradition, tucked away just steps from the lively Salisbury Beach boardwalk. Arriving here is a quiet invitation to slow down and savor a simple pleasure amid the buzz of summer waves and arcade lights. The pace is unhurried, the mood easygoing—perfect for families, beachgoers, and longtime regulars who come for more than just a quick bite.
This spot carries the unmistakable rhythm of a casual local eatery where the familiar red-and-white takeout window has welcomed generations of guests. Outdoors, weather permitting, you might find neighbors sharing a bench, the salty breeze mingling with the warm, comforting scent of freshly baked thin-crust pizza. It’s the kind of place where the pizza isn’t about flashy trends but steady, honest flavors that invite you to remember, return, and recreate your own perfect slice — whether dappled with provolone, brightened by anchovies, or simply kissed by the crispy edges of classic pepperoni.
Beyond slices, the offerings extend into little indulgences, like fried dough and golden mozzarella sticks, that feel right at home alongside the familiar salt air and carefree spirit of the shore. The interplay of sweet pizza sauce and a slightly crispy crust creates something uniquely Cristy's — a flavor experience that’s quietly different, drawing a steady crowd who appreciate this blend of comfort and character.
Cristy's Pizza is less about formal dining and more about the human moments — friends and families reconnecting over slices, the echo of laughter, the casual chatter of beach days winding down. It’s a place that reminds you how locally rooted flavors and simple rituals can carve out a special spot in the heart of a community and the memory of every visitor who finds themselves here.

If you like this kind of pizza then this was good. Pepperoni and provolone. Sweet with a crispy crust. Affordable. Tasty... Not bad.

This place is affordable and amazing. It's not traditional pizza to be sure - but if you know what you are looking for, it is amazing. Don't be surprised when a single slice of provolone is what you get with an order of 'extra cheese'. That's just how it's done. Try the anchovy or the mushroom for some added deliciousness! Well worth the trip - even if it's out of the way!

I've been going to Cristy's since I was a kid (I'm now 47 years old). Long before, there was a second location in Hampton Beach & only the Salisbury Beach one existed! I normally don't like a sweet pizza sauce, but Cristy's is my only exception! I take my beach pizza with some Provalone cheese & garlic powder...how do you take yours?

Christy’s Pizza in Salisbury Beach, Massachusetts, is a longtime local favorite just steps from the boardwalk. Its red-and-white sign and takeout window have been a fixture for generations of beachgoers grabbing a quick slice between the arcade and the ocean. The menu sticks to the classics — thin-crust pies, calzones, and subs served fast and hot. Families and surfers crowd the outdoor benches all summer long, while the sound of seagulls and laughter from Broadway mixes into the air. Like much of Salisbury Beach, Christy’s keeps that vintage seaside energy alive — simple, reliable, and rooted in tradition. It’s not just pizza; it’s part of what summer on this stretch of coast has always tasted like. #salisburybeach #christyspizza #massachusettscoast #newenglandfood #beachvibes

It’s beach pizza. It’s unique. Best pizza in the world? No. Best beach pizza? Maybe. Every now and then I crave beach pizza and I always end up driving an hour to this spot for it.

Really good beach pizza. Service was great. The pizza sauce is sweet and the crust is thin and crispy. I just wish there was more cheese. I got extra cheese and that was like regular cheese. Parking can be tricky. I lucked out and got parking right in front of Christys. It's paid parking. We just did live parking and the food was ready quickly so it worked out. I didn't pay for parking.

First time here! Pizza was hot and fresh. I’ve never had “beach” style pizza but it was good. Definetly a good lunch for a day at the beach!
