*Bloggers note: the price increased from $1.00 to $1.50 in 2023)
I have been coming to 2 Brothers Pizza, which is located right next to the back entrance to the Port Authority Bus Terminal since it opened back in 2010. Its original branch is down on St. Marks Place by Gramercy Park. It is home to the $1.50 slice of pizza and started the trend of $1.50 slice places in New York City. When the City, still reeling from the meltdown of 2008, this type of restaurant came at the right time (The slices price has increased from $1.00 to $1.50 in 2023).

The pizza oven is going all day long
2 Brothers Pizza also has the lunch special of two slices with a Coke for $3.99. It took off and has been popular ever since. The location is perfect because if you are hungry after a long day at work and need a quick snack, 2 Brothers Pizza is the place for you.
The cheese pizza is delicious here
These may not be gourmet slices, but the pizza is cooked very well and if it is not too busy, cooked all the way through. Sometimes the lines are so long at lunch that they will rush the pizzas out of the oven before they are done, and it can be doughy.
Their cheese is good quality and their sauce is flavorful with lots of spice so it stands out. Pizzas here never sit long and you are guaranteed it will be a fresh pie. I have always noticed that this place is busy. They used to have more lunch specials like chicken and rice dishes but I think they have given them up and concentrated on just the pizza. They also have pizza with toppings but those slices are a little bit more.
The Two Slice special of Cheese Pizza and a soda.
For a $1.50 a slice and two slices with a Coke for $3.99, you can’t beat 2 Brothers Pizza. They also have locations in the Garment District on 7th Avenue and their location on St. Marks Place by Gramercy Park, so check them out online. Also, they are open late night as well so if you are heading home from the theater or just touring the City, it is a nice place to stop off for a late night snack.
The Cheese slices on the lunch and dinner special.
Since the slices are now $1.50, they put a good twist on that so you spend the other .50 cents. They sell Garlic knots for .50 cents and they are good! Loaded with garlic butter. Chopped garlic and grated cheese. Yum!

They are worth the additional money
For a late night snack there is nothing like it
Seating is limited in the restaurant but there are a few small tables and a few cocktail tables to eat at outside on a nice day or night.

Since COVID, the owners have put more cocktail tables outside on West 41st Street for patrons when the weather is warm.
Locations: They also have locations at 549 9th Avenue, 31 West 46th Street and 755 6th Avenue
