This article serves as a continuation of my pizza review column! So dive in, and discover what 1A Pizza has in store for you. 

This will be my last installment. I hope someday another Norwood High student will continue my pizza legacy. Until then I encourage all my readers to get out and try some pizza! This is where my cheese and crust-filled journey comes to an end.

Route 1A is a road that flows through the heart of Norwood, and is a road that many Norwoodians ride along every day. 

Sometimes when you're driving, you get hungry and 1A pizza which is located right near the Big Y is a perfect go-to. 

When you first go into 1A pizza it is not only the friendly faces that make the experience great but it is also the incredible prices of the pizza. 1 Large cheese pizza is $10.75, the lowest I have personally seen in Norwood. 

The aromas that circulate the building, tell your senses of the hot pizza that is being brought from the oven. 

I ordered my large cheese pizza and did not have to wait long at all to receive my food.

I was already impressed before I even got my food. 

Here came the moment of truth. I grabbed a slice and let my taste buds do the rest.

It was excellent. The cheese-to-sauce ratio was very good and it did not have an overbearing amount of grease. 

The best way to put it is that it is a classic, reliable pizza, with a delicious crust. 

I would definitely recommend this spot to anybody who is looking for a good dependable pizza spot.

Head down to 494 Walpole St, Norwood, MA, and give it a try!
