Both are conveniently located next door to each other on Old Orchard Street, a stone’s throw away from the beach and attractions.
We decided to make a meal of it by visiting them both (FRI AUG 2, 2024), sampling their signature products:
🍕 Bill’s Pizza: Cheese slice x 2 =$9.00
🍟 Pier French Fries: Poutine = $11.00
Pizza and poutine in the sunshine. What could be better?
The pizza was flavorsome but had the quality of what you would expect from a seaside outlet. It had a thin base and was easier to eat when folded in half (New York style).
The poutine fascinated us: the crinkle cut fries had been freshly made and were lathered in a lovely gravy, alongside copious amounts of cold cheese curds. This was an unusual dish and would be great after a few beers! The portion size was good for sharing, which we did.
Both businesses took cash only.
The young man who served us at Pier Fries was miserable and disinterested in any conversation beyond the transaction. Next door, at Bill’s Pizza, the young lady who served us our slices was friendly but more interested in carrying on chatting to her young colleagues.
These were some of the first people we met at Old Orchard Beach and it was a sign of things yet to come….
