Listen up, pizza lovers!

Sugar’s Hot Pizza, a New York–style pizza shop from the team behind Stubbys. Opening May 15, Sugar’s will introduce pizza by the slice, whole pies, deli-style sandwiches, and soft serve in a relaxed, walk-in setting. Located just steps from Stubbys, Sugar’s brings a go-to pizza spot to Seaport; a casual, everyday destination designed for repeat visits. Visitors and locals can stop in for something quick, familiar, and reliably good. The menu centers on New York–style pizza, served by the slice and as whole pies, with a mix of classics and rotating specialties. Standouts include Classic Cheese and Pepperoni, a Vodka Sauce pie topped with chicken cutlets, and The Green Marnster with pesto, garlic aioli, mozzarella, and tomato. Hot Stuff brings the heat with jalapeño, capicola, red onion, and hot honey. In addition to a range of slices available daily, including the Sugar’s Slice, a classic New York–style cheese slice topped with dollops of creamy burrata and finished with basil, a rotating slice of the day will feature options like the Jerk Slice, inspired by flavors from Stubbys Jamaican jerk chicken.  Get all the details here.
