Delicious pizza! Will go again, & recommend to anyone asking about good pizza in town.

Road tripping and in the town of Templeton, CA. The town is tiny and businesses shutter down earlier than their larger populated neighboring towns. In search for a casual local eatery to have dinner, I yelped to see that Cowboy Pizza was open until 9pm Sunday-Thursday and 10pm on Friday-Saturday. So off we went. The eatery is counter service with the food brought out to the tables. The dining area is smallish. Little hole in the wall, no frills place. Comfortable. The cashier was welcoming and helpful. The menu has pizzas, calzones, pasta, hot sandwiches, salads, and appetizers. We ordered a pepperoni and sausage pizza and bottled Jarritos sodas. The pizza came out piping hot. Lactose intolerant me popped a pill and went to town. The crust was oven baked. Nice bake on the crust. Evenly cooked through. Gorgeous satisfying cheese pull. Seemed like an endless stretch. The pepperoni is not cup but yummy nevertheless. Overall tasty pizza. read more

The pizza is good, the crust however is fine as long as the sauce and cheese is on it, however the end don't have much flavor at all, I'm thinking they might have forgotten to salt the dough read more

Cowboy Pizza - Remaining half veggie and half bbq chicken(which was really good) - Pizza Near Me - Templeton, California

Super nice people, a comfortable, casual neighborhood space, and tasty pizza at a great price. For a budget-friendly neighborhood pizza spot, it's excellent- I am not out here comparing it to the Della's and Via Carravagios of Paso. So, they get five stars from me for the category that they fit within- not artisanal, not fancy, not Neapolitan- but delicious, kind to your wallet, fast, and the owners and staff are friendly and helpful. They are good to the Templeton community. We like the wings, pesto chicken pizza, and pepperoni pizza especially. We tend to make our own salads at home when ordering pizzas, so I can't speak to those. The chicken bake thing is cheesy and excellent and $8. My husband and I can split just that and a thing of wings, happily. We've never been disappointed by an order, many experiences in, and it's our go-to "emergency dinner lever" or "pizza craving option" to pull these days given that it close in proximity for us to pick up (we've never done delivery). Their family meals are a great deal, if you're feeding a crowd or want leftovers. And they are reliable in speed and service. We enjoy them and patronize them far more often than we ever did their location's previous tenants! read more

I'm optimistic when trying out a new za place, but very often left disappointed. Of course, even bad pizza is pretty good! Via Doordash, I ordered the XL Hungry Cowboy with a Stuffed Cheese crust -- whoa. I quite loved it! The pepp, sausage (ground, delish), olives, onions, peppers, and mush were great and plentiful. It had a very wide crust, but the crust because it was filled with cheese, was so so good. I only wish I had a side of a good sauce to dunk-dunk-dunk in. I'll order again, and perhaps, check out the establishment in-person! read more

02/27/2026. Wow this use to be my go to spot when I would visit my nieces and her son. Idk if they got new owes but the pizza was not good at all. It was 1/2 way cook. I didn't know about it until I got home 2 hour drive. I will call them in the morning and I will give them 1 more shot. read more

I really enjoyed and would recommend anyone living or traveling in the area to go here! I went twice, yesterday 3/20 and today 3/21. I got pizza by the slice both times. Porfirio provided amazing service and removed any meat for Lent on Friday. He also added jalapeños as a topping. The pizza was warm, fresh, and had tasty toppings. Also the environment was warm and welcoming. read more

Great stop for a bite while visiting Downtown Templeton (on the way to Pismo Beach). A delightful downtown and great walk. We saw a sign for pizza-by-the-slice and that's exactly what we were looking for. Delicious pizza! They had 2 varieties ready to go, classic pepperoni. Good selection of canned sodas/water/tea. Nice sitting area. They had nice holiday decorations and beautiful local artwork on display. Friendly service. read more

Yummy pizza, lots of veggies on the veggie pizza, which I loved. Cute little pizza place in Templeton.

Ordered pizza at 5:55p and the website auto selected pickup. i immediately called and spoke with someone who assured me that it was fine and they could just charge me separately for the delivery fee. Confirmed my address three times and the gentlemen asked me if I would tip the driver or put it on the card. Let him know I had cash and he said it'll be there in 45 minutes. After an hour and fifteen minutes, we called and they said the conversation never happened and we were lying. Finally got our pizza at 8pm with a drive who made sure to point out the recipe said pickup and said we never called. read more

Cowboy Pizza - Call completed at 5:58pm after placing my online order - Pizza Near Me - Templeton, California

The 5 stars is for the affordable decent pizza serving the area. The pizza is closer to 3 stars but the price point of $39.99 for 2 large 2 topping pizzas, order of wings, salad and 2L soda, earns this place an overall 5 stars. No frills but fills a hungry belly. read more

The service and pizza is one of the best. We ordered the thin crust. I highly recommend. We will be back when we return to the area.

The pizza is delicious! They were extremely busy but the staff did an amazing job getting orders out quickly.

Fantastic pizza nobody can touch it I love the extra large combination. The meat chunks are large. All the portions are cut in large cut.

This place is absolutely amazing! The prices are good the staff are amazing and the food. Will definitely be going back! And that bake in the pic was only half of it really good for 7.99. read more

Let's be honest here. The single greatest thing about this place is the affordability. The customer service is super lacking and the food isn't anything I'm serving to people I'm trying to impress. One extra star to support a small town mom and pop establishment. read more

Their crust is different and delicoious, pizzas have fair toppings. The staff is very fiendly, they have fast service. It is a perfect place to eat with the family, it is kids friendly. read more

I love this place. I use the 2'fer deal and it's so affordable. I pick it up and it's always hot and ready. Their ranch is delicious. The ambience is okay, nothing special. I always take it to go. Yum! read more

I ordered 2 pizzas, one large thin crust the other a medium regular crust. My thin crust was literally the same as the regular crust. The best part of my experience was ordering my food. I watched them make other orders with no gloves no hair nets. One guy washed his hands then touched his nose, no re-wash. I'll never order there again. The place before "cowboy pizza" was so much better read more

Really good pizza every time and they are pretty quick too! I regularly go in while taking the dog for a walk and place a to-go pickup order(counter service style) and they always have the order finished and ready to go within 10-15 minutes! Only thing I could say is that the churros could be better lol other than that, fantastic pizza read more

Delicious pizza & great service! We had a jalapeño pineapple pepperoni pizza as well as the cookie, yum.

We got garlic chicken and added bacon and it was soooooo good. Service was great and friendly as well.

Great pizza and our grandkids love it!!! I love supporting local businesses in Templeton is our town

We're visiting family in Templeton and they suggested Cowboy Pizza. We got one XL pizza, one L pizza, and a large salad. It fed 8 people perfectly because it's thick and hearty. We were all happy with the choice and hope they continue to do well! read more

Abysmal pizza! Don't know what to say about it other than it fills a hunger hole if your about and no other place is open within 20 miles! The obviously have no clue what "wings" are as we get home and it's chicken bread balls with no sauce? Yikes! Never in my life have I ordered wings and got microwave like chicken balls? Ya, this place is a definite avoid! Burnt cookie pie thing strait from the top of tasteless gunk. Update: After the crazy wasted reply by the owner my response is, there will be no reaching out to let you know what to improve on...I said what it was, and it was a waste of money. Not even offering a redo of the meal I wasted money on is absurd. So no thanks! People,avoid this place off tasteless food and employees! Huge avoid! read more

We just found our new go to pizza place! The toppings are great quality and the dough is amazing! Even the gluten free dough is the best in the area. We are looking forward to eating their pizza again soon. read more

Really wanted to give this place a higher rating. The pizza sauce was tasty and the pizza was pretty mid. The kitchen area was messy. The real issue and reason for the rating is the onion rings we ordered. They didn't fry them but instead put them in the pizza oven. From across the restaurant I could see the employee taking the onion rings out and they were floppy and appeared uncooked. He looked at another employee shook his head back and forth and closed the box. We opened the box and the onion rings were barely cooked they were soggy and not edible. Pissed us off that the employee knew what he was doing and he gave them to us anyways. For a new restaurant it would seem they would do better. Won't be back. read more

The pizza and calzone I had were delicious! I work next door and I will be a regular customer

They have the best calzones ever! I highly recommend this place. They also have soda and salads.

We have had Cowboy Pizza twice since the new owners have taken over. We ordered a party pack, and now a family deal. Both times the pizza was hot and delicious! Salad was fresh, fettuccini was tasty, and their buffalo wings had just enough kick. Customer service has been great. We will definitely be regular customers. read more

We tried Cowboy Pizza last night and were impressed! We ordered one pepperoni and one Hawaiian to see how the basic pizzas tasted and we loved them! We usually have leftovers for the next day, but everyone loved it so they were finished off. Kids approved and parent approved! Glad they're in Templeton! read more

just got a hungry cowboy from them. It was pretty darn good. Will definitely go back again

The two medium pizzas for $22.99 will easily feed four adults so we will have leftovers for lunch! The pizza is really good and reasonably priced. The owner and staff are very nice and we can't wait to try their Burrito Express in Paso Robles. read more
