Beverly's 'Pizza Mayor' Also Decided on Tuesday
The Beverly High School senior class crowned the best pizza in Beverly at Tuesday's Pizza Fest.
Voters chose a new mayor for Beverly city government on Tuesday, but they also chose a new mayor of the Beverly pizza world.
Freeda’s Pizza and Calzone emerged on top at the 13th annual Pizza Fest at Beverly High School, based on votes from diners who paid $7 each for unlimited samples of pizza from 15 different pizza restaurants in Beverly. The event was a fundraiser for the Beverly High School Class of 2014.
Second place went to Little Italy and third place went to Mike’s Pizzeria.
