Doughboys Pizza is now open at 15410 New Hampshire Ave. in Cloverly, taking over the former Bear Brick Oven Pizza and Greek Islands Grill space. The restaurant opened Tuesday with a soft opening from 12pm-8pm. The MoCoShow’s own “Mr. MoCo” Alex Tsironis stopped by to support the new locally owned restaurant. A video preview of the visit can be seen below.
Doughboys’ menu currently features nine specialty pizzas, with names that lean into the restaurant’s military-inspired theme. Options include The Doughboy, topped with pepperoni, Italian sausage and crispy bacon; The Yeomanette, featuring vodka sauce, prosciutto and sun-dried tomatoes; and The Commander, a supreme-style pizza with pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushrooms, green peppers and onions.
Other options include The Devil Dog, with pepperoni, ricotta, jalapeños and hot honey; The Fighting Fifth, a white pizza with garlic, mozzarella, ricotta, Asiago, Parmesan and basil; The Argonne, with mushrooms, caramelized onions and ricotta; and The Flying Ace, featuring pineapple, prosciutto and crispy bacon. A classic Margherita-style pizza called The Hello Girl and a build-your-own cheese pizza called The James are also available.
Specialty pizzas range from $17 to $23, while The James is $14. The menu also includes house, Caesar and Caprese salads, along with desserts including mini cannoli, carrot cake, brownie sundaes, cheesecake and soda floats. Fountain drinks are also available.
As previously reported, Doughboys was launched by three friends who planned to build on the foundation established by Bear Brick while maintaining a neighborhood-focused atmosphere. The owners have also discussed plans for wings, Maryland craft beers and community events such as live music and trivia nights.
The owners previously told The MoCoShow that the expanded menu was being developed with guidance from a Michelin-starred chef from the United Kingdom. Additional menu items will be introduced in the coming weeks.
