Pizza, Bourbon & Single Barrels | Inside Goodfellas & Wiseguy Lounge

We’re joined by Eric Boggs and Alex Coats, owners of Goodfellas Pizzeria and Wiseguy Lounge, for a Flight Night that blends New York–style pizza and bourbon. We explore their path into the restaurant business, why New York–style pizza became the foundation of Goodfellas, and how bourbon naturally became part of the brand’s identity as they expanded across multiple states.

We also dive into the creation of Wiseguy Lounge, how they curate an approachable yet impressive bourbon list, and what they look for when selecting single barrel picks. Along the way, we taste through four of their single barrels—Elijah Craig, 1792 Full Proof, Stagg, and Old Forester—while talking pizza-and-bourbon pairings, community support, scaling without losing quality, and what’s next for Goodfellas and Wiseguy Lounge.
