Brooklyn Square Pizza started out as a local Jersey Shore-area pizza spot doing something a little different: that crispy, upside-down square pie with the sauce on top. People tried it, loved it, and yeah… the word spread pretty fast.
Â

Â
Next thing you know, they’re popping up in more towns like Manalapan Township, Jackson Township, Toms River, and Shrewsbury. At this point, it’s not just a neighborhood pizza joint anymore; it’s one of those Jersey spots people will actually go out of their way for.
