This place is TERRIBLE. I dont know where to start! First off the food is mediocre at best and severely overpriced. Not to mention that you can stand at the counter and see 4 or 5 health code violations. Pizza boxes stacked on the trash can....spice shakers being wiped down with dirty rags while theyre still full....instead of being emptied and sanitized. The soda machine is a nightmare....looks like it might get cleaned once every few months. Aside from the dirty kitchen and overpriced run of the mill pizza shop food....this place also doesnt even have a complete italian menu....no pasta...no desserts...bacon and ham are considered "gourmet" toppings....and overall....they do not accept credit cards. Instead they will prompt you to use their atm (which of course is not free) as to milk even more money out of you . Also, dont expect delivery service.....even though this place is right next to a landmine of homes and businesses. On a lighter note....the counter girl was an absolute pleasure and a sweetheart. But believe me when I say thats the ONLY good thing about this dump. They call themselves the "famous" king of pizza.....but what are they so famous for? Being in a convenient location? Owner should rethink his business plan!

We walked in super hungry and sat down. We waited 10 minutes, no one greeted us. I was feeling nice so I waited another 15 minutes and nobody came to our table, mind you the waitress was helping the three other tables on the other side. I know they saw us walk in, it was my boyfriend and I plus our son. We were the only diverse group in there so, I dont want to specifically say its a race thing but it felt like it since everyone stared at us when we walked in but no one greeted or waited on us. Horrible service! So disappointed!

The food is good however I placed an order for pick up and when I handed the cashier my card she told me they only accept cash?!?! Its 2017 what do you mean. She then told me its an ATM in the back that I could use so I do that and agree to the fee of $1 for using the ATM. I later checked my bank account and was charged an extra $2.50 I found that to be very inconvenient. The customer service couldve also been better from both cashiers (the one that told me about the ATM, and the one that actually took my payment)

My boyfriend, my sister and I were in the dc, philadelphia and jersey area. We were looking to try any and all new foods. My boyfriend loves pizza and trys it every trip we go on around the u.s. He and I LOVED the pizza from king of pizza in cherry hill, nj. Original and thick crust, both large pizzas. Well worth the money. Staff was very friendly also. Much to choose from also. Chicken salad, sandwichs and etc. If and when i go back to jersey.... I WILL be crossing the bridge to head to king of pizza.

This is tough one. In conflicted. There food is great. Wings are the best in area. Service is a little rough. Neither good or bad. Most of my experiences have not been with a friendly smile. Atmosphere is a little blah. It would be 4 stars if service was better. If you are taking out then you are good. Wings and pizza are pretty good. Prices are on par with most shops. I recommend for wings and pizza for take out. Dont recommend dining in.

Decent South Jersey pizza. I found the regular pies to be a little sloppy for my liking but they were good nonetheless. I didnt get a chance to try the Sicilian, but it appears they are known for that as well. The parking lot can be a little difficult to get in and out of because its on a busy corner, but that shouldnt deter you from giving this place a try.

This is the worst in Pizza and Wings history. I thought I was chewing wax(no exaggeration at all, wax!) The service is horrible, and they only accept cash(didnt even tell me when I called). Everything looks cheap and mean. Avoid this place or you will regret. With the same price, you can enjoy great Pizzas somewhere else： Pats, Dominos etc....

I love King of Pizza. They have the perfect blend of sauce, cheese and crust. They are always courteous and the pizza comes out of the oven super fast. They load the toppings on as well. That person that compared King of Pizza to Chuck E. Cheese is obviously missing more than half his/her taste buds. Period.

Excellent pizza, but a full menu of sandwiches and appetizers are also available. I highly recommend the wings, too! As for the pizza, the sauce is delicious and the ample toppings are prepared to perfection - sausage is crumbled not sliced, broccoli is diced and the cheese is plentiful.

I dont eat cheese. (I know I know) but KOP makes me a pizza no cheese sauce and sausage and it is the BEST! My daughter who loves cheese makes me get KOP every time shes home from college. I have been a patron since the 70s. They never disappoint.

I went here all the time as a kid and now living back in the area I decided to revisit KOP. Still the best pizza in South Jersey. The rest of my family has enjoyed other menu options, but I love the plain and veggie pizza the best.

Try the white.....its incredible and the sausage is amazing!!!! Great atmosphere and the people are typical Jersey, short and sweet! If you want a lovely pizza with no hassle and very little wait this is your place!!

We were traveling in NJ for a mini vacation. We found this restaurant based on the reviews of others! Great food. The pizza was impressive and done well. If we ever travel that way again its a repeat must stop!

Ordered a large half pepperoni half sausage sausage, they apparently messed it up (the slightest blemish) and he made me another without saying a word, and gave me both pies. Both tasted great!

Their sausage pizza is so good I never get anything else. The price is a little higher but when you feel the weight of the box...their large pizza is "actually" large...its worth the price.

Fast pizza. Good slices. Quick turn around on customers. Multi-tasking employees. Meats are a little greasy, but good piiza for the price. Allows take away and sit down.
