Longboards occupies a historic building on Wharf Street in Salem, founded by North Shore brothers Justin and Matthew Mattera after they spent a decade running a sandwich shop focused on New England lobster rolls. The restaurant serves flatbread pizzas presented on long boards—the namesake touch that sets them apart. Beyond food, the space functions as a casual neighborhood spot with shuffleboard, darts, arcade games, and a full bar, designed as much for lingering as for eating.
