Super cute location and restaurant, street parking was free around it, not super busy (went on a Tuesday night, I'm guessing is really busy during the weekend). Food was great! We were too late for the happy hour, but the prices for happy hour looked phenomenal. My only thing was my drink wasn't amazing, but I like very few alcoholic drinks so I'm not mad about it NADENE - so good! All their pizza options looked amazing. I don't think you could go wrong cupped pepperoni, hot honey, ricotta, basil, mozzarella & marinara WINTER MULE - this was seasonal (obviously) I think anyone else would've liked it! aspen vodka, cranberry, ginger beer, lime, cranberries & a rosemary sprig CHARCUTERIE BOARD - so good! Loved all of it. For happy hour I think it's $10 trio of meats, cheeses & spreads, served with crostini, pretzel sticks & crackers read more

The clam pizza & the brown olive butter were actually out of this world. The daisy was solid, the cart-driver pizza was a little bit underwhelming - probably wouldn't order again. This spot is awesome - the patio out back is such an underrated hidden gem in Denver. read more

I'm late to the party of Cart-Driver but so happy I finally made it! I was able to try the Daisy ($17), which is a margherita pizza, and the Peppers ($21)! I found the Daisy to be a bit bland and needing more cheese, sauce and basil, but the Peppers was absolutely delish! The quality pepperoni and bit of spiciness was perfect! Both pizzas were served piping hot fresh from the wood fire oven and had beautifully worked chewy crusts. The restaurant has an industrial vibe as the structure is literally constructed from shipping containers. Very casual. Order at the counter and sit indoor or out in the middle patio. They were playing so hard/death metal type music when I was there. I wasn't a fan but I luckily I had a great pizza to distract me! Service was attentive and quick! read more

Cute little bar with weekday happy hour. Got there at 4:30 and was seated right away. By 5:30, it was definitely busy. Tables are pretty close together. Love the outdoor patio seating with misters on hot days! The food was pretty good, albeit on the pricey side. The oysters were delicious, and they had some sort of promo going on that the server sold me on that required downloading the Blackbird app. There was some confusion though because then they forgot to take off the oysters that should have been free, and that was kind of annoying considering all the additional effort from downloading and setting up and paying with the app. As a gym girlie, I will say this place is very carb heavy. Few hard hitting protein options. read more

Unbelievably cool artisimal flare in this small pizza joint named Cart Driver on Larimer. I really had to hunt to find this place as it was not on the regular food sites. Cart Driver should be your first choice for incredible pizza in Denver. Located in a small space that looks like a converted storage unit, Cart Driver only seats about 30 people. Our perch was up front looking into the compact but efficient wood fired pizza oven and kitchen. For a Saturday afternoon, the place was hopping. They have appetizers, oysters, boards, salads and pizzas. We started with the chicken mousse, toasted rosemary focaccia, apricot spread and mostarda. The mousse was flavorful, smooth, great taste and incredibly rich. Some of the best focaccia I've ever had. Our pizza selection was the little neck clam with pancetta, roasted garlic, panna and a grilled lemon wedge. The dough was fluffy, light, savory, perfect char and a hint of salt. Both dishes were unbelievable, a bit higher price point but well worth it. Cart Driver on Larimer was a huge impressive surprise. The food combinations were unique, tasty and a definite must return to try other dishes. The vibe here is chill and unassuming. This small "gem" won't stay below the radar for long. Treat yourself for a quality meal and great atmosphere at Cart Driver, you won't regret it. Amazing Meal. read more

What a gem! My husband and I stayed at the Ramble and this was right across the street and we are so happy to have stumbled on this spot! The Pizza is absolutely decadent! Perfectly cooked, amazing ingredients, fabulous crust....and I really mean that, I don't eat crust but this crust was worth eating and I did! We ordered the hot chicken pizza which was quite a surprise, just a menagerie of flavors that were epically paired to create a unique combo that I've been thinking of ever since!!!!! Spicy chicken, pickles, some sort of magical sauce...yum city! We also ordered the peppers pizza which is basically their version of pepperoni but with fresh garlic and Calabrian chili...it was also terrific! Lastly we ordered a customized pie with lots of meats and some other extras and it was loaded with flavors and it was also a hit. My husband ordered an N/A beer and I had house water which is served freezing cold which I certainly appreciate. Seating is rather limited, the space is however clean and the staff is very kind. We even got a visit from one of the crew shortly after the food came out to check on how we liked everything. Overall, a wonderful and expedient service and the food was absolutely delicious! If I lived closer I would certainly be a regular! read more

Was looking for a quick bite ahead of our Death & Co rez, so stopped in here! Super solid - we had the: *Peachza with added prosciutto - this one is a seasonal one. The texture was perfect and I think that's a tough feat when you have stonefruit on a pizza. You have to consider the liquid it adds and how to cut it so you have the right balance. Anyways, Cart Driver knocked it out the park with this one! *Cart Driver (sausage, kale, mozzarella, chili flake) - seeing that it's their namesake pizza..we kinda had to order it! Pleasantly surprised that the kale was nice and crispy and not soggy (win!) The flavors were really good. The wood-fired Neapolitan-style crust was so so good! Also I keep thinking about the hot sauce! Apparently they switch it up and also bottle and sell it. We sat outside on the patio! There is some indoor seating too. Anyways, a solid stop in RiNo! They also have a location in LoHi. read more

Came here after a drink at Death & Co (across the street) and while Cart-Driver is not near my home, I always wish it was closer. The pizza is simple, good quality ingredients cooked just perfectly. They use the cupping pepperoni and high quality cheeses and toppings. We got a pepperoni and sausage and greens pizza. Both great, and also they do have a good selection of beers and drinks too. You pay a higher price here, especially for a friendly however very casual atmosphere (order at counter, get number for table), but it is definitely worth it. read more

Cart-Driver - Yummy pizzas - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This an interesting little place. If you're looking for traditional pizzas then this isn't for you. They have unique pies that all sounded good except for the peach one. Because eff peaches. Gross. They use a sour dough crust which was unique and really good. We got the most traditional pizza they had which was more or less a pepperoni. Unwanted the clam pizza but just wasn't in the cards for us. It's quaint. Okay it's pretty small. They do have a seating area outside that was nice and a little patio out front. Good pizza, less than traditional menu, maybe would come back if I was near there. read more

Daisy Pizza (5/5): Very simple margherita pizza. The sauce was good and there was just the right amount of it. It could've used a little more cheese but it was nicely melted. The crust was almost like a fluffy, chewy naan and I really enjoyed it. (This was also half-price for their late night happy hour deal). Cart Driver Pizza (4/5): The sausage and kale were good toppings, but not having any sauce was a bummer. Clam Pizza (4/4): I always like trying a clam pizza because it's a good change of pace. This one had pancetta too which was great except it overpowered the clams a little though. RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this) read more

Cart-Driver - Daisy Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Ordered the Peppers, Daisy, and the Cart Driver pizzas and wow, they came out looking almost too pretty to eat. Three pizzas were the perfect amount to feed our group of four. The pizzas are thin and crispy that makes every bite feel light but satisfying. Service was super friendly--our server had such a happy vibe, which made the meal even better. We sat inside, but the patio looked like a great option too if you want fresh air. Street parking was easy to find on a Monday night. Favorite pick? The Daisy. Simple but so, so good!! I love cheese! read more

I came here on a Friday to eat dinner solo. I ordered the clam pizza, the chopped salad and an na beer. The total for my dinner with tip was sixty bucks. For what it was, I thought this price was high. The wood fired pizza and salad were crafted fantastically and everything tasted wonderful. I just think that 60 bucks for a small 12" 6 slice pie and a salad is just too much in my opinion. Service was fast, efficient and friendly. read more

Cart-Driver - Clam pizza - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Best oysters in town. Delicious pizza -- love the peppers and the clams. Apps are great as well just had some olives and bread and butter. Tinned fish is also a unique and delicious option for a lighter meal or lunch. Great service but can take some time for the pizzas to go. read more

Yummy pizza! Neapolitan style with good flavors. Food is obviously freshly made and piping hot. It's a great spot for a quick meal. There is a narrow seating area when you walk in but further seating around the corner. I enjoyed pepperoni pizza and garlic bread. It seems to have all the hallmarks of traditional Neapolitan food. We also ordered oysters funny enough, they tasted fresh, no complaints. read more

Taste: 5 Creativity/Authenticity: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Service: 5 Bang for your buck: 3.5 Delicious, amazing, different!? All of these apply to Cart driver! Started with the chicken pate, if you like froi gras you'll love this! The side of bread that came with it was perfect, simply one of the best starters. Now to the pizza, had to get the clam pizza and... def worth it, the mix of salty with cheese and meat was the perfect balance of flavors. Service here was great, place just opened so it wasn't busy yet but they were pushing out pizzas like no tomorrow. Price is a little hefty for a pizza spot but market price so can't blame the establishment. Overall great food and experience and will be back to try other pizzas thanks for the food read more

Honestly I was going to just let it go but I'm always so conflicted with places like this. The food was so delicious, amazing pizza, great crust, fresh oysters. It also had a good amount of seating and placed where you didn't need to be around a lot of people regardless of how busy. The only negative is the staff. I felt so uncomfortable in there I wanted to leave immediately. The food is definitely worth stopping for but I just couldn't let go of the hostile atmosphere. Maybe take to go lol read more

Pizza is all about the crust. I like mine thin, chewy and light. I can't believe today is the first day I have tried it. We ordered the "Peppers" pizza- yummy pepperoni, red sauce and thinly sliced garlic with Calabrian peppers. Every bite was delicious. The wine for $13/ glass was not great, but the service was fast and friendly! I will definitely order a beer next time instead. read more

My wife was getting hangry and we stopped here for pizza. Due to it being a Saturday night and about 9pm it was busy with a 45 minute wait for pizza. But we were able to get a table right away and pizza came out within 25 or so minutes. They were able to swap regular cheese for vegan cheese on their mushroom pizza. Our table was right in front of the brick oven and watched them make all the pizzas. Place is pretty small. Pizza was great. Forgot to take a picture. They were about 10" pizzas with hand tossed dough. I loved it. You could easily share or finish by yourself depending on appetite. Prices were up there because of the area. We will definitely go again next time we're in town. read more

Okay Cart- Driver! You fulfilled my late night pizza expectations and then some. This place is awesome. Let's talk about it. First, GOOD late night food. I come from a place where late night options are rendered through a drive thru (no shade, I love Taco Bell) but sometimes you want something that is made with the freshest local tasting ingredients and sit down service. Second, the spot itself it's really cool. It kinda felt like a maze with the different rooms and patio, I saw all of them on my way to the bathroom. The patio was pretty vibey and cutely lit. I liked it. Third, the food. This was probably some of the best food I've had in awhile. I loved the cheese and the crust, so warm and soft and fresh right out of the oven. I was simple and went with cheese and it hit the spot 100%. Fourth, they have a spritz menu. Anyone that knows me I love an aperol spritz. I would have preferred it to be in a large wine glass/ goblet... however, that presentation wouldn't fit in a spot like this. The smaller glass just made sense with the over all feel of the place. I highly recommend Cart- Driver. Check it out! read more

I've been to Sicily and have had several pizzas while in Sicily and I can attest that the pizza here is very close to what I've had in Sicily! I got the peppers pizza and husband had the clams pizza - both really good. Pizza size is not Sicily inspired! This is a great pizza place however, I paid $60 with 18% tip for just two pizzas with no drinks- overpriced imo. read more

Finally - I come on an off hour and I can find some seating. It's usually super backed and thinks basically an order at the counter type of place. When it's nice out - they have more outdoor seating. But - this is a no frills brick own pizza, oysters, and some chicken liver mouse with some beer/cocktails. Also - even their salads are good. Come here for everything but don't forget to use all of their spicy and vinegar dips on the table with your pizza! read more

Late night pizza? Hell yeah. Was visiting from out of town on a work trip and we stopped in here after a long event day. Pizza always sounds good after working long hours. This place is cozy but really nice. They have more seating in the back area and even a patio, but since we were here late at night, it was chilly AF outside, so we made friends with people at the bigger tables in the back and sat with them! So nice. We ordered a variety of different items, including some pizza and and charcetuerie. I did order some wine, but I think it was like a homemade wine situation and I didn't really love it. But that's okay! The rest of the food was delicious. I wasn't expecting the pickles to have a kick either but they did. The charcuterie wasn't a typical one, which I actually really enjoyed. And the bread they served with it was outstanding and delicious. read more

In regards to a recent trip to Denver, this was absolutely one of my favorite spots that we checked out. I came with coworkers after a very, very busy day and we were starving and a little grumpy. We ordered a variety of things, including the Daisy pizza, a charcuterie board, and a few drink drinks. I got one of the spritz options and I really enjoyed it. It was on the small side and had a good amount of ice, but overall I liked the flavor. The pizza was very solid, if somewhere can do a basic margarita pizza well then you know they've got their stuff together. I would love to come back and try something like the clam pizza which is obviously much more adventurous. The charcuterie was really good. Everything from the focaccia to the butter and the raisins that I can't stop thinking about. Seriously who makes you crave raisins. The interior seating is pretty limited and it seems like they probably stay pretty busy. They had a solid patio outside, but it's pretty cold this time of year. read more

My family and I went here for dinner last Saturday, and it was fantastic! The hostess was very kind and efficient. My daughter had made a reservation, so we were seated promptly. Our server, whose name I had unfortunately forgotten, was vivacious! She gave off good energy and was super helpful with the menu choices-all looked so yummy it was hard to decide! We ordered a variety of sides to all share: Burrata, Grilled Sprouting Cauliflower, Mussels, Pork Bolognese, and Market Pizza. All were freshly made, delicious, and plentiful-we practically had to be rolled out of there! The only thing that was a tad disappointing was the cauliflower-it looked like a combination of stringy broccoli/asparagus and was very chewy, so I don't think it was cauliflower. Also, the bartender makes incredible cocktails: Mezcal Old Fashion, Cosmo, and Margarita were strong & good! Overall, I would highly recommend Cart-Driver! :) read more

Came for dinner on a weekday and it was super quick and easy! Got the chicken liver mousse, which was savory and had an interesting citrusy kick, thanks to the apricot toppings they included. The bread was super warm, fresh and lovely. The pizza was also perfection- the crust wasn't too thick or thin; and the kale and broccoli on top were crispy. The vibe was relaxed and chill; lots of good drinks available. Check out their happy menu! $3 oysters and $8 pate. Only available 3-5pm though... looking forward in coming back! read more

I like the ambience and vibe of the restaurant. The staff is friendly where they guided us with ordering up front then picking our own seats. My friends and I ordered two pizzas to share. Our food was served very quickly. I like thin crust pizza and I enjoyed the sauce. Howeever, I wish there were more flavors to the pizza. The mushroom pizza was plain, lacking the aromatic aspect of the mushroom that I wish they used variety of mushrooms. The calabrian chili of the amatriciana pizza was spicy and took over the taste palette that I can't taste the other ingredients. read more
