Pizza in Cambridge is serious business. The city supports a remarkable variety of styles — from blistered Neapolitan crusts fired in imported ovens to thick, chewy Sicilian slices sold by the square. College students, tech workers, and families all have their go-to spots, and debates about who makes the best slice are a local pastime.
