The Dough Company

Nestled just below the bustling Wyoming Valley Mall on Kidder Street, The Dough Company has become a beloved pizza destination for Wilkes‑Barre locals and visitors alike. The modest brick façade opens onto a warm, family‑friendly dining room where reclaimed wood tables and soft amber lighting create a relaxed yet lively atmosphere. Their signature hand‑flattened pizzas are crafted from a house‑made dough that ferments overnight, topped with a tangy homemade tomato sauce, freshly grated mozzarella, and a rotating selection of premium toppings. Must‑try items include the classic White Pizza with ricotta and garlic, the savory Pagach topped with sausage and peppers, and the crisp Greek Salad tossed with Kalamata olives and feta. Homemade soups, such as the hearty chicken pot pie broth, are offered as starters. The menu also features homemade meatballs and lasagne, showcasing the kitchen’s dedication to artisanal comfort food. Open Tuesday through Thursday from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from noon to 8 p.m., the restaurant welcomes diners for both quick take‑out and leisurely sit‑down meals; it remains closed on Sundays and Mondays. Prices are moderate, with most pizzas ranging from $12 to $18, and a full meal typically under $25. Gift certificates are available, and a modest 3 % service charge applies to credit‑card payments. Friendly staff are quick to recommend a slice, and the aroma of fresh‑baked dough fills the air, promising a satisfying experience for pizza enthusiasts seeking genuine, home‑style flavor in the heart of Pennsylvania’s Wyoming Valley.
