Corropolese Bakery & Deli

Authentic and amazing I could eat the pizza every meal of the day! Come early to get the most selections

YESSSS. Tomato Pie. Get it, eat it, rejoice.

First, tomato pie… It’s he best. If you know if better, please let me know. Also ordered 5 hoagies w veggies and dressings on the side to serve at a party. 1 hoagie came fully dressed. 4 came undressed but dressings were never provided. Hoagies lacking meat; cheese i.e. Roll to filling ratio as way out of whack. In the future, I will go grab my tomato pie, but get sandwiches elsewhere.

My husband has mentioned this tomato pie several times because of how well they are advertised on Philly Sports Radio. We do not live anywhere near the 4 locations, but were however lucky enough to have been at a party recently in Lansdale that served this infamous tomato pie. It does indeed live up to its reputation. While my favorite type of tomato pie is the kind with chunks of fresh tomatoes a la New Haven style «apizza» which they don’t make down here, Corropolese is very good for this red sauce, square style. I live in the heart of South Philly, literally steps away from what some consider to be the best pizza around and this is much better. The sauce is perfect. Not too sweet and not sour as tomatoes can be.
They don’t not use egg in the dough and do not use cheese in the sauce, so it’s vegan if you ask for the sprinkle of parm cheese they top it with to be left off.
I found out today that Creekside Co-​Op in Elkins Park sometimes carries small boxes of Corropolese tomato pie for just $ 5.99! Done!
**Oh and be careful… the sauce will absolutely leave a bright red stain! Learned that the hard way. RIP my beautiful vegan suede pewter clutch. Whoomp, Whoomp. Try very hard to resist one-​handing a slice while driving it home.

Once you walk through the front doors, you’ll be greeted with the glorious scents of delicious baked goods… more specially: fresh made tomato pie and rolls.
Having spent a nice chunk of my formative years in Norristown, I live and die for Corropolese Tomato Pie. This tomato pie is the end all be all of all tomato pies… don’t even try to tell me otherwise because I know this to be the absolute truth! :-P But really, give it a try… their hoagies, pre-​made calzones and strombolis are awesome too.
This Lansdale location is just as worthy as any of the other Corropolese establishments around the Montco area. The staff in the deli are somewhat standoffish but otherwise the rest of the crew are great!

The absolute very best tomatoe pie! Great Italian rolls & good bakery/​deli! Staff very friendly. Decent selection of Italian goodies in terms of frozen pastas & canned goods.

Simply put, the best pizza «pies» in the world. Hot pepper or sweet pepper are my personal favorites, which they knock out of the park, but you can’t go wrong with the tomato pie.

I begged these guys to come to Lansdale for TWENTY FIVE YEARS! Every party, holiday and birthday (about 45 times a year) Corropolese Tomato pie is A MUST!!! Let’s low ball and say we get 25 pies for the last 25 years: SIX HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE YUMMY, TUMMY ys for us!!! Once, we had an extra large pie left over. I ate almost the entire thing on the 12 hour drive to North Carolina. and I WOULD DO IT AGAIN!

Everything I have ordered from Corropolese has been great! The tomato pies are a hit whenever I bring them to a party!

Excellent tomato pie and excellent deal for the price. My husband and I pretty much had dinner for 3 days when we ordered a takeout pie.
The sauce is really delicious and a bit on the sweet side. I thought the sweetness balanced out the acidity in the tomatoes so it didn’t feel overwhelming on the stomach. We tried the slices warm and cold, both were good but I think i prefer them warm because the crust tastes great warm!
Looking forward to trying a more traditional pizza pie next time.

I really love their tomato pie. The sauce is very unique (in a good way). It’s a bit on the sweeter side, which I think helps balance the acidity of the tomatoes. Their deli sandwiches are very good as well. I will sometimes get a hoagie from there during my lunch break. The rolls are so fresh, they’re out of this world! They also have a lot of great sides in their delicatessen stand as well, such as stuffed olives, peppers in oil, cucumber salad, and broccoli rabe. I can’t speak to their sweets, as I have not had any of their confections. Mostly because I don’t eat many sweets and it’s hard beat my homemade pizzelles. ;)
Now, let me get to the reason I cannot give this place a 4 star rating. I often find their staff to be unfriendly and borderline rude at times (with the exception of the cashiers). Their staff could definitely benefit from enrollment in charm school. Trust me, it wouldn’t kill you to be nicer to your customers. No, really, it won’t!

This was the only place close by where they sold a Tiramisu cake. So, I went here on a Sunday morning to bring a Tiramisu cake for a birthday. The person who packed the cake did not give me the cover of the cake, inspite of me asking for it. This made it difficult for me to store the cake. The cake definitely did not have mascarpone. it has some kind of cheap cream which crystallized after refrigerating for a day. Very disappointed. This bakery is very close to my home and I wish it really was 4 star (as per other reviews on Unilocal

This is a great bakery.
Great tomato pie, breads, rolls, pies, etc.
Also, if you are stopping in for lunch, their hoagies are the best in the area. I love this bakery.

GREAT tomato pie. Don’t go anywhere else. Large assortment of rolls and so fresh! Staff is very friendly and the shop is nice and clean. Love this place!

I ordered tomato pie and and seen the guy behind the counter take money from customers that was ahead of me and he didn’t wash his hand or put on gloves and then he grab my tomato pie and put it in a the box. When I ask him do he have to wear gloves he said «no» at that point I told him I don’t want it and as I was walking out the door there was a table with girls selling cake and one of the girls said I heard what happen and he is suppose to get your food with gloves. I will never order anything from there again, I’m not trying to get sick.

Corrpolese is a great deli with great hoagies and cheesesteaks. But by far the gem of corrpolese is the tomato pie. What is tomato pie you might ask? It’s basically cold cheese less pizza. Sound Unappealing? It’s not. It’s made with delcious doughy bread that the sweet tomato sauce seeps into. I challenge you to only eat one slice.
The middle more saucy slices are the best and they must be sprinkled with crack because it is addicting.

Ok, Ok, so everyone has already said it, but I’m here to hammer in the point, you literally cannot beat the tomato pie here… there are just no comparisons!
The sauce is the perfect sweet/​tangy flavor and there is plenty of it. The crust is most, but nice and crunch on the end pieces. We get the big one for our office of 10 and it is always far too much, leaving us to brawl over who gets to take home the leftovers! I can’t wait to pick one up and take it home for the holidays!
I haven’t tried many other items from Corroplese but everything looks good, plus I love a small deli like this with tons of cute/​easy cooking options!

ATTN: CITIZENS OF GREATER PHILADELPHIA
Corropolese tomato pie is a neurotoxin.
It will breach the blood-​brain barrier and ruin all other tomato pies for you forever. It will hijack your neurotransmitters and make you drive to Landsdale. You will never look at $ 4 the same way again.
You have been warned.

The Corropolese tomato pie is the best I’ve ever had. I don’t care where your favorite tomato pie is made, but if it isn’t at Corropolese, then you just haven’t had Corropolese yet. It’s that simple.
With a perfect, buttery crust and a delicious sauce with the right amount of tang, sweetness, and flavor, Corro is unbeatable.
Other people present me with tomato pies from well-​known establishments to challenge the reign of Corro. After one bite of their feeble offerings, it is not uncommon for me to spit out the fetid slice and block that person on Facebook.
tl;dr this is the best tomato pie. You can comfortably feed 4 adults with this for 4 bucks. It is madness.

2 words:
Tomato Pie!
Corropolese tomato pie is truly wonderful (and a huge one will feed an army of guests — which is exactly what we did at my sister-in-law’s house for a family party) — rich and tomato-​ey with a dusting of parmesan cheese on top (no mozzarella).
Eat it hot — or room temp — or even cold the next day is still pretty good.
They also make enormous hoagie trays — replete with Italian meats and cheeses — onions, lettuce shreds and tomatoes sliced paper thin.
A great catering option — Superbowl, birthday or otherwise.
