15 Mar 25 Update: Colony Grill was a perfect stop to celebrate St. Patty's Day weekend when other local Irish pubs were packed. We ordered a couple Smithwicks and Guinness along with their corned beef and cabbage pizza special and another pizza with sausage, onions, mushrooms, peppers, cherry hot peppers and hot oil. Everything was great. Thanks! August 2024: Colony Grill is a great place for beer and pizza. The location is easy to find and great for large groups. They have an upstairs area in addition to their main dining room and TVs everywhere. The staff were all friendly and attentive. Our server gave us recommendations for both food and drinks. Overall, we had a great time. They aren't joking about how spicy the "stingers" are...beware if you order them as a topping on your pizza. I had the mushrooms, hot oil, and meatballs. My husband ordered the stingers, hot oil, and sausage. Beer choices are good. We went with Smithwicks. The pizzas are personal sized. We would definitely return. Thanks!

Bar non it’s the best Gluten-free (GF) pizza in the area. Got a pepperoni well done and was impressed with everything; flavor was traditional, zero flop on the base, perfect crunch on the crust, lil bit of greasiness but not too much. I’m coming back and you should too.

I grabbed a hot oil pie with pepperoni and sat outside on the patio. They even brought a dog bowl for my pup, which was a nice touch. Service was fast, the pizza was delicious, and I appreciated that they had a non-alcoholic Athletic beer option. Great spot for a relaxed meal with your dog!

Colony Grill is a truly unique, truly distinctive pizza. I've never eaten a pie like it, and I've never been disappointed. There's something about how they make that super thin, crispy, and delicious crust that makes it so special. Every two weeks, my wife and I have "Colony Night," and I look forward to it for several days beforehand.

I'd come back. The pizza was a bit big for a personal pizza, and could get oily, but the salad pizza was excellent. The salad is dressed, so it creates a cool buffer from the grease of the pizza.

This place is fantastic. Best pizza in the area in my opinion! It's often very tough to find good gluten free pizza, and Colony Grill does an amazing job. Service is awesome too!
