Old Friend operates as a Detroit-style pan pizza operation in Roslindale, running pop-ups throughout the neighborhood rather than from a fixed storefront. Their pans come in two base options—cheese or roni—alongside rotating weekly specials like Chicken Caesar, Pride, Bacon Tomato Ranch, and Oxtail. Everything is made from scratch: the dough gets a three-day ferment, the breadsticks and marinara are housemade, and they offer a housemade Caesar salad and peanut butter cookies as well. Gluten-free crust is available for an upcharge. The operation focuses on catering orders with a 15-person minimum and 72-hour advance notice requirement, though they also take individual takeout orders at their regular Thursday-Saturday pop-up locations.
