Biography

Biography: 
More than 70 years ago, the Mackrone family started selling pizza at a restaurant near the Trenton fairgrounds in New Jersey. It was going pretty well so they decided to open a shop on the Seaside Heights boardwalk, which was also successful. One day they decided to jump in their car to take a fun road trip down to south Jersey. They ended up in the little town of Wildwood, which had become a hot vacation spot. They loved the town and decided to open up a shop on Wildwood's boardwalk.
 
The grand opening on Memorial Day weekend 1953 didn't go so hot. As a matter of fact, it poured rain all weekend and they only sold 8 pies the entire weekend! But this wasn't an indication of the success they were soon to have in the coming decades--eventually they had 4 locations and have become one of Wildwood's and New Jersey's most famous pizzerias.
 
What to expect from a Mack's pizza? A thin crust, cheddar-drive cheese blend, and a sweet tangy sauce.

Tried Jumbos. Was my favorite. Tried Sam's, new favorite. Then tried Macks. New, new favorite. Best of the best. Witnessing sauce application is reason enough to stop by. Best pizza on bdwalk is a bonus!!!

Was a Sam's fan for years but after reading many reviews for Mack's decided to give it a try. I'm a convert. Mack's is the best! Thin crust, great sauce, just the right amount of cheese. Love it!

Mack's has good flavor, but it's on the thin side and the consistency varies. The location towards the convention center is not good at all. Service isn't the best either and they can be unfriendly. $3.25 for a slice of Pepperoni is kind of criminal too. Definitely tastes good though.

Greasy, often burnt and many-times reheated, with inconsistent freshness. The cheddar in the cheese blend casts some serious doubt upon this pizzeria's Italian origins. Eaten here a few times over the years, always because someone else wanted it, and most (but admittedly not all) slices have been disappointing. I'm told this place was great in the '80s, but I can't wrap my head around how it's still such an institution decades later. It is the "Pat's King of Steaks" of the Wildwood Boardwalk.

Very salty and not that great. The sauce tastes like from a can. Sam’s is just so much better. I really can’t understand the hype around Mack’s. The best part is the think crust but that’s about it. Don’t ever order delivery. The few times we’ve had Mack’s deliveries it was awful.

Have been going to Mack's for over 60 years. Used to live in Wildwood. Many years ago, moved to NYC. I travel from NYC every year, several times, just to get my fix of Mack's and take home a few half-baked pies. Still the best after all of these years.

Love the pizza. If I'm within a 30 minute drive while showing properties (I'm with Century 21), I make the trip to get a couple of pies from Macks!

MMMMMM!!!! We have a tradition with our family over 40 years. Our children have now become big fans of Macks pizza. We are there every year to visit Macks at both locations and multiple times throughout our week there. We love Macks Pizza!!!
