Came here with a party of 10. It's first come first serve seating. Staff was very friendly and came by the check on us often. Our waters were always full and never needed to ask for their attention. The pizza is good. However, the middle of the pizza was a little on the softer and dare I say soggy side. I still throughly enjoyed the flavor and taste. The slices are very large and one piece filled me up. We also had a couple of beers and a plain cheese pizza. The salads looked so fresh and crispy but we were just too full. Great spot to unwind and relax out of the cold. We will be back next time we are in the area. We then walked around the Timberline lodge and the kids played in the snow. We had a great time here! read more

They've got the best pizza tucked away in a small bar buzzing with skiers and hotel folk. You can customize it as you want.

If you wanna go just to say you did ... do it , I wouldn't waste my time again. read more

This place used to be the best place to eat at Timberline. What happened to the personal $18 pizzas? Now it's like $12 for a slice! Not to mention they used to have amazing toppings and combos (like the white pizza) and now gone! Miss the old menu read more

So happy they are back! I love they have a nice, dry cider on tap now. It is just the coziest bar at Timberline. I got the All The Cheese Pizza today which was super delicious. The crust was perfect, and the sauce and cheese ratio were sumptuous. Now that they are back open, they will definitely be my go-to place for food and drink. Alas, they are closing soon for the season, but I will be back in summer! read more

Delicious start to finish! Wonderful food and wonderful service. Everything about the pizza was perfect. Eat here and avoid the two other restaurants at the lodge that serve sub-par food. Only downside is that it is a VERY small restaurant, so you might have a hard time finding a seat. read more

Some of the best pizza I've ever eaten-seriously the crust is light, crispy on the bottom and has and wonderful flavor. Sauce and toppings are perfect in amount and flavors. Definitely go there when at Timberline lodge. The servers are also great. read more

We went there last week, it's a small restaurant inside timberline lodge, you can see chefs making pizza. They don't have much options, We ordered cheese pizza, pesto based pizza, beer and Affogato. Cheese pizza was yummy yummy, pesto pizza was good too And Affogato was yumm. Definitely recommend this place. read more

We came to Timberline Lodge twice on our Oregon trip and we loved visiting this historic hotel. We had dinner at the Blue Ox Bar and we had some drinks, salad, and pizza. We loved our food and we loved the atmosphere of this little hole in the wall restaurant. The decor is fun and the whole experience was really quite fun. We would definitely come back here again! read more

We were eager to drink & dine in this iconic bar! We walked in just in the nick of time because it got extremely busy right after we arrived. We think the waiter was slightly overwhelmed (thus contributing to our 3-star rating). For beverages we ordered the Smoky Orchard (very stout but had a nice pear finish) & the rotating cider. For pizzas we ordered the (both 10"/personal sized) Cheese Pizza & Mushroom & Bacon Pizza. Both were decent pizzas but very overpriced ($14 & $20). The crust was crunchy on the edges but the rest of the pie was fairly soft. The cheese was underwhelming (we'd prefer more cheese & maybe stringier & maybe more flavor- like garlic). The mushroom & bacon definitely had more flavor but we would've liked more mushrooms & more bacon, but the arugula gave it a nice earthy spice. It was a fun experience (sitting in what was originally designate a wood storage space for the Timberline Lodge & later converted into a bar), but we'll try another eatery next time we visit. read more

Blue Ox Bar - Cheese Pizza & Mushroom & Bacon Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Timberline Lodge, Oregon

This was my first time eating at the lodge here. I normally grab a warm drink and pack a lunch. This was summer so it was a different beast. Now, this place is a hole in the wall, quite luttereally size wise. I didn't expect much, but respected the minimalist Naples like pizza. When we ordered me assumed they were smaller than they were and the pizza ended up being not as pricey as we thought. We got the 2 vegetarian options as the friends we were with were vegetarian. I like a standard cheese and basil pizza to be honest though. They hand toss their dough, and they do it quite well. Ingredients were fresh and placed well. I would easily say, compared to alot of the fair food up there, this is a safe bet to enjoy. read more

Blue Ox Bar - Peppers and olives - Pizza Near Me - Timberline Lodge, Oregon

Great pizza, super filling, cute little bar, and relatively cheap option for the location. Would revisit when we go back to timberline lodge! read more

I'm not going to lie - this place probably had the best pizza I've had in Oregon in the two years I've been here. The next closest was in White Salmon, WA (and that's not even Oregon). The wait staff is nice as can be, and because it is pretty small, they are very attentive. The prices are a little higher, but well worth it for the taste. Smaller menu, so I hope you're not picky. Our 12" pizza was cooked perfectly- crunchy crust, chewy middle, melty cheese, and I didn't even want to pick off the chicken or dip it in ranch which is saying a lot for me. We also split the Caesar salad which was also amazing. Tossed in just the right amount of dressing with lots of parmesan and tasty croutons. Their drinks are also awesome- you really can't miss by going here. We might have to take more trips to Timberline just for the Blue Ox! read more

My heart beats Blonde, White, and Blue at historic Timberline Lodge thanks to tiny iconic Blue Ox Bar servin' blonde beer, white pizza, and you. Give me liberty or give me pizza! But first, give me a Highland Meadow Blonde Ale. This draft beer is a light starter brew to drink your way off the bunny slopes towards Mt. Hood Brewing Co.'s Ice Axe IPA. Then get a hand-tossed 12" White Rooster Pizza ($15) with Smoked Chicken, Applewood Bacon Bits, Red Onions, Asiago Cheese, and Crème Fraîche. Like Kate Upton, it's creamy white seduction that no man or woman should try to resist. Blue Ox Bar is a tiny hole-in-the-wall that proves you don't have to be big to be a larger-than-life folk hero. Both, Paul Bunyan and I are fans of the Blonde, White, and Blue. read more

Timberline is always fun and having never eaten here, thought it would be nice to take my dad here. We went to the Blue Ox thinking of just having coffee at first, but dad saw the onion soup on the menu. The place is small and we got lucky somebody had just gotten up. The decor is classic Timberline with big heavy wood furniture. Nice tile artwork on the wall and yes, it is a blue ox, imagine that. The service was quick and they were really nice. I had ordered a personal pizza, one of the best things I have eaten in a while. The pizza had fresh mozzarella, basil and melted mozzarella, but just enough to hold it one. The crust is super light with good flavor. I wasn't sure what to expect, since I know a lot of people that work at Timberline and had told me these were frozen pizzas, but they have since changed all that. These are handmade and the taste shows it. It was $10 and worth it. Now, my dad on the other hand was not impressed with the onion soup, which was white and creamy, not that traditional brown base. Overall, I would go back. read more

the Blue Ox bar. Stopped in for a quick snack in a couple of simple Diet Pepsi's. Personal size pizza was Top Notch. Service was excellent. And if you want to go somewhere and get a beer in about the most traditional, cozy, and satisfying location you must visit this little bar. read more

Very small place. Cool decor - felt like a tiny pub. Limited menu, which at first we were hesitant about. (But we didn't want to pay the prices upstairs at the other Timberline Lodge eateries.) However, we had pizzas and salad. And it turned out ok. The pizza was surprisingly good (as others said, it did take a while), and the salad was also good. Get in early, or you won't get a seat. read more

As if you need any reason to make your way up to beautiful Mt. Hood let this be it. As your wandering the historical Timberline you might find your way into this quaint little spot. Though there is limited in seating it is worth making a point to eat here. My wife and I have many dietary restrictions and they are very accommodating. I am still a carnivore but dairy is a no go. So, I was surprised to find that their vegan cheese was rather good. My other half is gluten free and she really enjoyed the crust on theirs. If you are not stricken by dietary restrictions then you can't go wrong with anyone of their selections. While I can't speak from experience the many other folks at our table can attest. Certainly, a great spot for pie! read more

We went hiking and stop by to have a drink before we hit the road. I had a Bloody Mary with home made beef jerky. It was both good. Great service. I took a nap on the couch downstairs afterwards. Really cozy here. read more

Great wood fired pizzas and a cozy atmosphere. Grab a pint of IPA and enjoy!

We followed the smell of fresh pizza from upstairs. The pizza, service and atmosphere are just the best. My kids have a milk allergy and they were super nice about making pizzas without cheese. Kids had pork and chicken pizzas without dairy and ordered second ones, claiming this to be their favorite pizza place, with the possible exception of Base Camp in South Lake Tahoe. My 3 cheese pizza was delicious, perfect think crispy crust without being burned, delicious sauce and toppings. Highly recommend this historic little dive. read more

The pizza was wonderful and super flavorful. My one complaint is that I wish they were open a little more and a little later. Besides that it was incredible, the crust was perfectly crispy. read more

Tucked into the Timberline Lodge is a little hidden gem called, The Blue Ox. You may notice the smell of delicious pizza wafting into the lobby, tempting you to follow the scent downward. A tiny little, wood-carved bar filled with custom arts and crafts--you will be enchanted. This place serves us amazing handcrafted pizza, drinks, salads, etc. Service is spectacular! read more

Good little hidden spot when the day lodge gets busy during the winter. The pizza is super good, and the employees are always having fun singing to music older than them. Only downfall is you get black lung due to not much air movement and corn meal burning in the pizza oven. read more

Stoped in to see the lodge and had a bite to eat before heading to the beach. The hot tea was an interesting blend but the blended specialty drinks were just ok. The lamb barley soup was very hearty and delicious - recommend that highly, also had the chicken soup it was also excellent. The waiter was overwhelmed with tables but otherwise very accommodating. Would expect the dinner in the main dining room would be better but fairly expensive. read more

This is THE BEST pizza I think I've ever had. And was super quick service. The pretzels are amazing as well. Highly recommended! Cozy little place read more

This is the best pizza place in the area. I was going to go to the buffet in the upstairs area of the hotel but when I smelled some of that delicious pizza I changed my mind. I had the cheese pizza and the Cesar salad. The cheese pizza was good size for one person. The Cesar salad looks very big but that is because it is on top of a giant piece of flat bread. The Blue OX Bar is one very good choice!!! read more

7/30/16- had lunch & beers @ the Blue Ox Bar! We ordered the three cheese pizza & the rustic meatballs. I scooped pieces of the meatball onto my pizza & it was perfection! The place is tiny and without a view- but worth a stop! You can always see the view AFTER you eat!! LOL read more

Cool little bar tucked away in the Timberline Lodge. Super friendly staff, great beer, and a really cool vibe to this tiny joint. Loved it.

The pizzas were amazing. Handmade, wood fired, and they don't charge extra for gluten-free! Also, they asked in detail about our allergies and were very open about possible cross-contamination. We had a good time and had no allergy issues! The only -1 was due to the fact that the place has almost no ventilation and it's very very smoky in there due to the stove. Our eyes were watering and we came out smelling like a fireplace. read more

Best Pizza my wife and I have ever had! Of course to be fair we did stumble in after a long, hot day of hiking. Still the pizza was awesome and the beer (while the selection is limited) is great as well. Cheers to Mt Hood Brewing Co. read more

This restaurant has some very good pizza and has very good service. If you ever come by Timberline Lodge, make sure you try the Blue Ox Bar.

Best pizza my husband and I ever had! Its a small cozy place and the service is great. A must visit place for pizza lovers.

Our service was incredibly slow and the pizza was burned. We were agitated, but then the manager came out and said the meal was on her.

Definitely one of the cooler historic hidden gems of Mt. Hood. Originally built as a wood storage room for Timberline Lodge, The Ox is now one of the best places for a beer and a pizza around. Full of art and old photos, my only complaint is the limited operating hours. Definitely call the front desk to check on hours so you can plan accordingly. Also, it fills up quick, but the staff will take great care of you. read more
