SCOTT LYONS
TWO BROTHERS PIZZA
SAUGERTIES AND RHINEBECK, NEW YORK
Jeff (left) runs the Saugerties Two Brothers, while Scott operates the Rhinebeck location. The brothers founded the pizzeria 13 years ago.
Scott lets us in on the inner workings of Two Brothers
ON THE BUSINESS CONCEPT - We
strive to use local and fresh ingredients. We
still focus on being your small hometown
pizzeria crafting original and unique pizzas,
along with old favorites.
ON THE PIZZA STYLE - We believe
our pizza style is unique. We specialize in
making a thin-crust New York-style pizza.
We strive to use only the finest ingredients.
We select the best local distributers who
carry the freshest produce and product.
At Two Brothers Pizza, we have a passion
for crafting new and exciting pizzas, like a
chicken Caesar salad pizza and the chicken
cordon bleu pizza. However, we are really
getting recognized for our grandma's pizza.
This pie is a square pie with an extra thin
and crispy crust. It is made with mozzarella,
whole crushed tomatoes, fresh basil, extra
virgin olive oil and a ton of Parmesan cheese.
This top-selling pie sells out multiple times a
day because of its popularity.

We strongly believe that you get what
you pay for. If the price is a little higher it
is because we have a better product. We
use higher-grade mozzarella and other
ingredients to make our pizza. In our eyes
it is worse to buy the cheaper material
because then you are not getting quality
food.
ON GROWTH - After 12 successful years
in the Saugerties location we started looking
to possibly expand. An opportunity came
about that we couldn't pass up with a prime
location in Rhinebeck. I was going back and
forth with the owner for several months
before actually deciding to buy this second
location.
There is always a possibility for opening
more stores. It really is all about finding the
right location.
ON THE BROTHERS - We are 50/50
partners at both locations. We run each
store separately. Jeff runs the Saugerties
location and I run the Rhinebeck store. We
each do everything we need to for our own
specific location from ordering produce and
ingredients to scheduling the staff.
ON COMPETITION - The area
competition in both towns, Saugerties and
Rhinebeck, is heavy. There are many other
good pizzerias to compete with. We just try
to focus on ourselves and strive to improve
our products in both of our locations. We
do a ton of advertising whether it is in the
local papers or local radio stations. Our
customers express that they appreciate our
daily specials that we run. We also offer a
discount for veterans, military members, first
responders and law enforcement. However,
I truly believe that a good portion of our
business comes from word of mouth.
