no kidding...WHAT A GREAT TASTING PIZZA. All the servers are kind and will help in any way possible. "Best Pizza and Brew" are just outstanding!!! Don't cheat yourself, treat yourself. read more

I quite honestly downloaded yelp just to leave this review. The team was super helpful - I'm usually indecisive when picking food and their recommendations surpassed my expectations! The pizza here is great, the beer is better, and the music is phenomenal. Keep up the good work! read more

Best Pizza & Brew Oceanside - Pizza Near Me - Oceanside, California

I love this spot! I come here all the time whether it's to study for a few hours, grab a beer after a long day, or catch up with friends. It's honestly the perfect mix of laid back and lively. The food is really good, (my go to is a slice and the mini caesar salad w/chicken and avocado) but what really makes this place stand out for me is the staff. Everyone is always super friendly and attentive. Special shout out to Trent! You can tell he genuinely tries to build relationships with the guests. He's always welcoming, remembers people, and makes the whole experience feel personal instead of transactional! Overall 10/10 recommend. read more

Took a couple of friends who were visiting Oceanside a few weeks back and had a wonderful time - it was very busy but the line moved quickly and found outdoor seating which was perfect for the weather. We each got the slices + beer combo which was a great way to try all the different pizza The staff were very attentive and came around often to check up on us and bring us anything we needed. Overall, we had a lovely time here at Best Pizza - we even filled out surveys at the end of our meal and they took the time to thank us :) 10/10 would come again read more

I came back and tried their thicker, Detroit-style crust pizza with burrata and sausage (no hot honey) and thought it was delicious. I would get that every time, it's just the right amount of cheese, sauce, and toppings on top of a thick, but not dense and super crispy crust with just the right amount of grease. I think it might be my new favorite in this area. Tip: Try their Detroit-style crust! read more

In the San Diego area and need a quick bite for yourself -- or planning a big, chill gathering? Best Pizza & Brew has you covered. Solo eaters will love their $8 hat or shirt deal, which includes a free slice of pizza. Yes, just $8 for a souvenir and your choice of pizza slice -- not only pepperoni or cheese, but several options. Coming with a group? They've got a spacious patio with heaters and a great interior for hanging out. As a meat lover, my top picks are the freshly baked large Meat Lover pizza, the cheesy meatballs, and the super crispy truffle fries. IG: socalhkfoodies read more

Wow, pizza and salad was phenomenal. Today we decided to go half barbecue chicken half meat lovers with the House salad and subbed blue cheese for goat cheese and it was absolutely phenomenal! Best pizza and brew always has the best crust. Best toppings, fresh salad, and the most laid-back chill vibe. The workers are always so nice and the food is always cooked perfectly. Beers are amazing also with a wide selection on tap. Love that they offer merch to go with hats and shirts, and the place is always spotless when I come in, so clean! Love that they sell by slice also. I was just blown away at how perfect our order was last night. thank you so much! This is why it's our favorite pizza spot!! The name stays true it is the BEST!!!! read more

This seems to be our go-to spot for pizza by the slice. They offer a great selection of beer and a few good vegetarian pizza choices. This time we split a 2 slice pizza deal and each ordered a beer. I love their pesto and sundried tomato pizza with pine nuts on top. We brought my mom and her husband here. They loved the pepperoni pizza. We enjoyed hanging out with the open window atmosphere along PCH. Service is fine. You pick up the beer at the counter yourself so listen to your number. read more

The pizza here is great! I had the meatball Parmesan and burrata sausage and hot honey. I'm not sure which I loved more! They were both great. Service here is always really good. I had an order of calamari and a Japanese beer. Plenty of seats inside. Parking lot was full but I found parking on the street no problem. read more

Time for another review update! This place keeps moving up higher and higher on my list for top local pizza spots! The name is super fitting; Best Pizza and Brew! I am now using them to cater meetings at work and the staff love the pizza and salads! They no longer have the Mac and cheese I used to love but I'm hooked on the garlic knots! Best Pizza and Brew always has amazing happy hours specials including $2 slices and great beer specials! They continually support the community with events sharing proceeds of sales from that day with the beneficiary! So glad to see business is thriving and hope to see them still here years from now! read more

The name of this place nails how the food here tastes. It was our last night in town and honestly I didn't feel like cooking so we decided to give the pizza here a try and I'm so glad we did. Not only does this place cater to your four legged friends but they have some of the best pizza in the planet. The sauce alone takes on a zesty flavor of it's own. It's a little spicy but at the same time not overly spicy toppings ratio was perfect and nicely cooked in a wood oven. The best way to describe the house salad was very similar to a Waldorf salad. Leafy greens. Julianne slices of apple, blue cheese, raisins and hopefully not peacans because I'm highly allergic but we did pick out the nuts since we weren't sure what nut we were dealing with. Our server was really nice and we sat outside since we had our two dogs with us. They do have a menu for dog meals for your dog to eat and tons of iced cold beers on draft to drink. This place is definitely with more than just a 5 star review it deserves a perfect 10 and I honestly don't ever find myself saying that about any of the businesses that I review but I can about this place. Honestly if I still lived in Southern California this would be my go to pizza place it would definitely be worth the 2 hour drive from L.A. so everyone you have to get down to Oceanside to try this place is promise you won't be sorry. It's also good for groups and catering I would just call ahead. read more

If you're looking for solid pizza, cold drinks, and a chill spot to hang in Oceanside, Best Pizza & Brew is the place. The pizza is fresh, crust is crispy, and the center is chewy. I enjoy their Pesto and The Works pizza. The Buffalo Chicken wasn't for me, as I've never been a fan of buffalo sauce. They've got a legit tap list with a good mix of craft beers, and their happy hour deals are pretty good, $4 pints and $2.50 slices. Margaritas are $6 (I believe) during happy hour. The vibe is laid back and beachy, with indoor/outdoor seating, plenty of TVs, and friendly staff. Great for grabbing a quick slice, meeting friends, or just kicking back with a drink on the patio. It's a go to local spot. read more

Pizza crust was thin and crispy! The whole pie was large and smelled amazing. Tasted even better! The service was fast, provided our drinks right away and when delivering the pizza asked if we needed refills and would like red peppers and Parmesan cheese read more

Food was tasty. We ordered the meat lovers pizza. Note, the crust is thin. If you want a thick, dough pizza, go somewhere else. A large pizza for 4 people with 3 drinks was $80. Kind of pricey, but you are paying for the location. Ambiance is family friendly with big beautiful open windows across from the beach. Service was friendly and efficient. They had a great special, 1 slice of pizza with a shirt for $8! read more

Love this place, fun experience and good food and love that you can get free shirt with pizza

Yes their pizza and beer is stellar, but this review is a special shout out to their desserts. The chocolate chip cookie and brownie are so good. Sometimes we will have dinner at another spot in South O but then go to Best Pizza for the cookies! They sometimes sell out FYI. Take one to go, or sit outside on the patio (they have heaters and its comfortable out there!) with one and add some ice cream. The service/staff at this location are consistently good which makes this an easy go to when you're in Oceanside. read more

Great spot for affordable eats. Pizza is good (not gourmet). Salads are good, love the house salad (tend to overdress so ask for dressing on side if that's not your vibe). Calamari has almost always been cooked perfectly here, looking forward to trying it again now that they are using beef tallow to fry! Friendly staff read more

We were spending the day with my daughter and boyfriend down in Oceanside and they took us to the Best Pizza and Brew in Oceanside. We all ordered a slice of pizza and a beer. Their pizza reminds me of New York Style pizza. Thin crispy crust and high quality cheese. Lots of beer choices too. Definitely a nice neighborhood pizzeria and brew house. I just wish they were in South Orange County. read more

Although it was packed on the Friday when we visited there were plenty of servers working and available. Our order of a Greek salad (large enough for 2-3 people and super delicious), two pizza slices and a Wagyu cheeseburger (another hit and the fries were great too) came out within a very reasonable time. Three times a couple of servers came over to ask if everything was satisfactory so we never were left unattended or to feel like we were being ignored. We definitely will return! read more

We tend to "dine in" at this location. At least once a month or so. It usually gets pretty busy. It's an open floor concept here. They've a side patio and picnic tables/benches that are away from the building for alternative seating areas. So you've got lots of options. We like the sausage with hot honey pizza. To drink I'll get something like the sexy pineapple. They've got good pours here. On occasion we get the order to go but it's always nice to sit and have it right after it's been freshly made. I appreciate their house salad from time to time. We've been to the Esco and Vista location as well. Pizza & Service is the BEST :-) We especially enjoy coming here more~so when we hang with some friends of ours or even when we get introduced to new friends. A wonderful locals hot spot. Come one or come all. Get a slice of pizza pie! read more

I had dinner here last night. Lots of searing options inside and out. Outside had table fire pits and hanging warmers for those chilly nights. I had their deal special, 2 slices and a salad. Pepperoni and buffalo chicken. The crust and overall taste was good, although I do prefer my pizza to have a fluffy soft dough with a crunch and extra cheese. But not bad and the taste was great. Their house salad was my very favorite, right amount of ingredients and very refreshing. You also can't go wrong with the garlic knots! The service was great and the staff had attentive attitude when we requested for the warmers to be put on. Everyone was nice and helpful. If you haven't already try them out, definitely worth it. read more

It was my first time here and definitely not my last. The Brussels sprouts were surprisingly great and I also had a slice of their house pizza (forget the name).

We love best pizza! This is our second year vacationing in Oceanside and we come here at least 3 times each trip. They have a great happy hour and all the staff is thoughtful, helpful, and very friendly. They have a great selection of pizza and beer! I loved the ones with hot honey. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and you order / pay at the counter and find your own table. I can't wait until our next trip! read more

Always a great time at any Best Pizza location. Their deals are the best. We came in during happy hour. $2 slices, $4 beer or wine, and $6 margaritas. I got 2 slices: best white & bbq chicken. I also got a margarita that was freshly made from a batch. Jesse was super nice and attentive. This location doesn't have a lot of parking, mostly street parking. This location is a bit smaller than other locations like Vista, Escondido, or Murrieta. read more

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would. The pizza is always spot on with only the freshest ingredients. But what really makes this spot my favorite is the team, especially Sophie. She's the kind of manager that sets the tone-she's attentive kind and clearly cares about the staff and the customers. You feel it the moment you walk in. This place is a gem. read more

Fantastic pizza by the slice choices!!!! When we came, there was buffalo, best white, meat lovers, pepperoni, cheese, the works, pesto goat cheese, BBQ, and the special which looks like a deep dish pizza. The staff is friendly and helpful. The place is very clean and spacious. They have inside and outside eating areas. The parking area is tiny but I managed to get a place. Cost for a pizza by the slice is $4.50 each for larger pieces. The nice thing is that starting at 2pm - 4pm and one hour before closing, pizza is only $2.50! (These are 2024 prices). What a deal! I had the works and it was fantastic. It comes out hot and fresh. Hours are Sunday-Thursday 11 am - 9pm Friday-Saturday 11am - 10pm If you're on Oceanside, this is a must stop eatery! It's a gem in the ocean of options. I'll be eating here again! read more

The restaurant responded to me but I am unable to reply to them. Maybe they will contact me again-

BEST Pizza. Is it, though? Honestly, from my family of 5, plus all of the friends and out of town relatives we've taken to grab meal here over the last few years, well, if it is not THE BEST, it is certainly one of them! I only say that because I know that pizza lovers can have their unique preferences, (thin, crunchy, soft, doughy, extra saucy and/or cheesy, or not, you understand). This guy, however, prefers my pie exactly the way the folks at BEST make it. Thin, crunchy crust but with a few softer moments to chew on, and most important, fresh, high quality ingredients that cover the top. As often as we've visited, we have sampled a good portion of the various pies. My beautiful bride prefers the "BEST White", but she is one of those. Basil, ricotta cheese with maybe olive oil and garlic? I could never actually order this, however I don't mind when she does because it is quite tasty. Please don't tell her I said that. My teenage daughter prefers garlic knots and the Caesar salad. Great choices girl but c'mon, no pizza? My boys..all meat lovers, all day. Me? Im a Pepperoni guy and maybe add a few jalapeños on top. I enjoy the traditional style/flavor but ain't nothin traditional about how good it tastes at BEST, especially when you drop by at lunch and grab the slice deal that also gets you a discounted hat for your dome. Some solid options! to rock around our gorgeous city of Oceanside. I will post some pics next time we swing thru. As so many have also said...killer vibe usually some surf flicks running on the screens. Staff is top tier. Never have we experienced, nor have others shared a negative human interaction with a BEST employee. EVERYONE is chill but on top of their roles. Finally, they offer both an inside or outdoor casual dining experience depending on your preference. One of our fave spots here in our hometown...Located on old Hill St/ (Coast Hwy). Ya Buddy! read more

We stopped in on a Sunday night! We enjoyed it. It's a nice casual spot with good beer, salads and pizza. The service was fast and friendly. Something about the pizza isn't my personal favorite. It looks amazing and tasted fresh; maybe it was too sweet? Not sure. I think it's good, just expected something different than how it looked. I would come back again. The salad was really good. read more
