Catasauqua local favorite Brothers Pizza shop serves up sandwiches, subs, pizza and more.
On a recent trip we decided to stop by this charming shop and order up some appetizers along with a full pizza to feed our team.
Bruschetta
The bread is fresh and the ingredients are freshly chopped. The serving is larger than expected. A very happy (and very filling) appetizer or side dish.
Chicken Wings
In a world of bone-in or boneless wings, I still prefer the bone. (I know I’m old school). Brothers offers both along with a list of flavors to choose from.
Calamari
The calamari was disappointing. Over-fried and flavorless. Wouldn’t order this one again.
Chicken Tenders with Fries
The chicken was juicier and more tender than expected. But lacked flavor.
Quesadilla
The quesadilla hit the spot. Good on cheese, but left our eaters desiring more flavor.
Pizza (by the slice and full pie)
The slices are big and there’s a long list of toppings from healthy to big taste.
According to their website:
“Enjoy the best pizza in Catasauqua like the locals do.
Local residents have made Brothers Pizza one of the most popular in the area.
Sample what they have to offer and see if you agree. Immerse yourself in the culinary scene of Catasauqua with some of the area’s top dishes. These classics are popular for a reason, so go ahead and see what all the fuss is about. See why the locals rave about Plain Cheese Pizza at Brothers Pizza. This local favorite is popular for a reason.”
In general, the food was what you would expected from as strip. The pizza was good. The bruschetta was better than expected. The chicken wings were fairly basic. The quesadilla had good cheese, but otherwise not memorable. The chicken tenders were juice, but lacked flavor.
Friendly and speedy service and delivered the results you’s expect from a strip mall pizza place, but not much more.
Located inside a strip mall, 1492 Main St, Catasauqua, PA 18032

Thanksgiving in Lehigh Valley: the perfect stuffing bread DOES exist – and it’s… [recipe inside]
This Thanksgiving in the Lehigh Valley, the perfect stuffing bread DOES exist – and it’s brioche. As in St Pierre Brioche Thanksgiving Stuffing
No Thanksgiving spread is complete without a hearty stuffing. While add-ins are a matter of preference, choosing the right bread is crucial. One underrated choice is eggy, rich brioche – and with St Pierre Bakery, you don’t need to go to France to get it.
Thanks to its butter and egg content, St Pierre’s Brioche Loaf provides the perfect balance of crisp toastiness while remaining soft and creamy inside, while its lightly sweet flavor adds a decadent quality that can still lean savory. Attached below is an approachable recipe for stuffing allowing for all the craveable crunch for the whole family with minimal effort required.
St Pierre Brioche Thanksgiving Stuffing
By @BrandiMilloy
Ingredients
1 loaf St. Pierre Brioche Bread
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 medium onion, diced
3/4 cup celery, diced
3/4 cup carrots, diced
1 cup mushrooms, diced
2 large eggs
1 tbsp. fresh rosemary, chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme, just the leaves
1 tbsp. fresh sage, chopped
1 small apple (granny smith works well), peeled and diced
Salt and pepper
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 F. Cut brioche bread into 1” cubes and bake for about 10-15 minutes until toasted.
-
Meanwhile, into a pot over medium high heat add butter until melted. Add onion, celery and carrots and cook until everything starts to soften, about 7 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
Into a bowl whisk together the eggs, herbs, apples, mushrooms, and salt and pepper. Add your cooked vegetables and mix to combine.
-
Pour mixture on top of toasted bread and stir to combine. Bake stuffing for about 45 minutes. If your stuffing starts to get too brown, cover until finished baking. Enjoy!
As America’s favorite brioche brand, St Pierre’s products are widely available via grocery stores nationwide as well as Walmart.

Six-Time Platinum Rockers Blues Traveler Head to Poconos Sherman Theater on May 14
Blues Traveler will perform the hits that defined their 36-year career at the Sherman Theater in downtown Stroudsburg, PA on May 14 at 7:00 PM.
American blues, funk, and soul saxophonist, singer and songwriter, Vanessa Collier will open for Blues Traveler and local singer/songwriter and former contestant from NBC’s The Voice, Christian Porter, will open the show.
Blues Traveler have announced a series of 2023 shows to coincide with the impending release of their Live and Acoustic: Fall of 1997 limited edition, double EP (Spring 2023).
Tickets for the “Blues Traveler 2023″ show go on sale Friday, January 27 at 10:00 AM EST and can be purchased at shermantheater.com.
During the shows, the band will perform a bevy of songs spanning more than three decades and 14 hit albums – including the iconic four, which went six-times Platinum and spawned the definitive “Run-Around” (garnering their first Grammy®Award).
Audiences can also expect to hear the band’s Billboard-topping smash singles like “Hook” and “But Anyway,” as well as their new, jam-infused renditions of some of their favorite classic blues songs, originally recorded by artists such as Aretha Franklin, Freddie King, Big Mama Thornton, and Little Willie John.
Blues Traveler will also be promoting their forthcoming spring 2023 release of Live and Acoustic: Fall of 1997, which is a selection of highlights from the ensemble’s legendary tour 25-years-ago.
The 25th-anniversary limited edition double LP will include unreleased,remastered material from the initial two-track soundboard recordings.

36 years ago, the four original members of Blues Traveler
About Blues Traveler: 36 years ago, the four original members of Blues Traveler – John Popper, Chandler Kinchla, Brendan Hill, and the late Bobby Sheehan – gathered in their drummer’s parent’s basement in Princeton, NJ to jam. From these high school sessions emerged a band that would go on to release a total of 14 studio albums, four of which have gone gold, three platinum, and one six-times platinum-selling more than 10 million combined units worldwide.
Over an illustrious career, Blues Traveler has played over 2,000 live shows in front of more than 30 million people, and, in “Run-Around,” had the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history, which earned them a Grammy® for “Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.” Their latest album Travelers Blues (Round Hill Records) was released in 2021 and featured reimagined and recharged classics from the American blues songbook and a few surprises. The group’s first official blues album, it was nominated for a Grammy® for “Best Traditional Blues’ Album” in 2022.
Their movie credits include Blues Brothers 2000, Kingpin, Wildflowersand others. A television favorite, they have been featured on “Saturday Night Live,” “Austin City Limits,” “VH1’s Behind the Music” and they hold the record for the most appearances of any artist on “The Late Show with David Letterman.”
