We love the pizza here and frequently order out with our friends - especially the buffalo chicken pizza. However, the few times we've dined in we've had terrible service. The last time we were here, we ordered our usual of the buffalo chicken pizza. The place was empty except for us. After waiting over 30 minutes (why, when we are the only people here?) we received a bbq chicken pizza. So.....not our order. What an infuriating experience. We had to wait another 30 minutes to get the pizza and were not offered any sort of rectification aside from a half-hearted "sorrrrrry" from our waitress. read more

I have been eating here since 1965. (I was 5) it will always be my favorite pizza on the planet. You will never go wrong with a Sweetness or a Howdy. "Juicy" of course. I brought many friends and family here over the years. No one has ever been disappointed and all want to return. Just a great old school neighborhood place. read more

Great service. No prices for beer/wine/cocktails on the menu. Ordered a large pizza, 2 adult beverages x2 people (beer/wine) our bill was $80.00 before gratuity. $40 for 4 baseline beverages. $10 for a glass of wine and $9 beer - if I would have known.. my fault I should have asked when I saw no prices on the adult beverages. I won't be back. I'm all for transparency, but raising the prices this much assumes the establishment is high end and this Joint is not providing the atmosphere or quality of food/drink to balance the cost. read more

Nice little neighborhood place. Stopped in to get a pizza and a beer. Service was spotty but not too bad. We ordered the onion ring stack. They were some of the best onion rings that I have ever had. When I took a bit of one, all of the batter didn't come off. I love that. The two dipping sauces were delicious. I ordered a side salad with my pizza and it was huge. Full of fresh greens, vegetables, pepperoni, cheese, and yummy dressing. Good salad. The pizza was just ok. I have had so many better pizzas but it was alright. The crust was a bit overdone, the sausage was very spicy. Just didn't hit the spot. The prices were awesome and the beer was cold. read more

What a rip off. Came in for lunch and ordered a soup and meatball sub. The soup was half a pint container for $7.50! It had lots of chewy, grisly pieces. The meatball sub was terrible, very bland. Super disappointed. Maybe stick to pizza here. read more

Edgewater Inn - Pizza Near Me - Edgewater, Colorado

Got a tiny "large" pizza for 30 dollars that was frozen pizza quality. Generic tasting and wrong toppings. That's twice now, never going back. Do yourself a favor and skip this place. read more

Go to the grocery store, buy frozen hot wings, sweet potato fries and an oven pizza, burn the fries and over sauce the wings. Then slather the pizza in grease and sling some Ragu on the top of the pizza and you will recreate the meal we had. Oh don't forget to burn the crust of the pizza... If you want someone to produce this meal for you go here, but be willing to wait. People are friendly and helpful. Would come here to sit at the bar for a beer but will not order any food. I did make management aware and they were great and really seemed to care about the product. read more

Super cute place, great pizza and drinks. Gives you a small local business vibes. Went at 4:00pm many open tables, friendly staff. Definitely coming again :) read more

We have been going to the Edgewater in since the 90s or even earlier and the food was always good. On a more recent visit we were somewhat disappointed that our Howdy Pizza was not as good as they used to be (no zing to it). Another issue we had was all of their rules about automatic gratuity on parties of 5, cost for splitting checks etc. The icing on this experience was the cost of a standard dinner salad. 9 dollars!!! plus tax and tip! Yikes! We may return but not anytime soon. read more

I've seen people with their pizzas while hanging at Joyride down the street. Well, I've finally had it for myself. So I really love that this place has been here for 60+ years. It shows but the restaurant is well-cared for. I'd say it's a great place to drop in for a cheap beer. I do love dives like this. I can't say the pizza is all the rage however. I'm sure there's an element of nostalgia for some, but for me, I've had better. It wasn't really worth the price either. I found the quality of the ingredients to be pretty subpar. The sauce tasted almost ketchup-like and had a strange sweetness to it. I'm pretty sure our jalapeños came from a can of some sort, because they weren't really spicy. So, pizza was just average. I'll probably be taking my pizza cravings elsewhere. read more

This place is fun. My friend and I frequently meet here for lunch. It has that folksy, old neighborhood feel. You can sit and talk in a relaxing, unhurried atmosphere. Food is ordinary and tasty... nothing fancy. Just easy. read more

I mean I wouldn't want to go on a first date here, but as far as some good pizza and fast service, this is the place! Italian wedding soup on point, and the pizza is brick oven goodness! Cheap food, cheap/good wine, can't complain! Expect this place to be a dive place, but GREAT pizzas! read more

"Slice after slice went down the hatch. The crust? Crispy. The style? Unique, piled high with toppings and almost excessive amounts of wonderful cheese. I loved every goddamn bite. It reminded me of the pizza my Paps would make for the family on movie Fridays when I was a kid. I ordered one more schooner for good measure and lay dormant in my food coma."

My family ate here frequently in the 80's and 90's. I live further away now and had not been in a number of years--I won't be back. Their calzones are nothing like what they used to be. Now they are a folded pizza crust dusted in stale italian herbs and cheap parmesan with 1 italian link sausage diced up and the green chiles are diced from a can with all the liquid left in-tact. I didn't eat it. Terrible. We were a group of 6 together rangin from "Okay pizza" to inedible calzones and spaghetti. The onion rings were pretty good, but not good enough to ever go back. read more

This review is long overdue I've been coming to Edgewater Inn for years. It's a classic timeless restaurant that's been in the Denver area for 68 years. Still family owned run by Ben DiPietro's granddaughter Haley. Food is wonderful you can't make a bad choice on the menu. My favorite is their classic Howdy pizza and an ice cold schooner! If you find yourself around Edgewater do yourself a favor and stop by this classic joint you won't be disappointed. read more

The most classic Denver pizza spot, still owned by the same family! We have been going here since 1982, it's just as good! The howdy pizza and the Buffalo wings are a must. The waitress Dana is INCREDIBLE! She was awesome!!! Kyle, Ean, Rubin, Kyle, Haley all fantastic! read more

My wife Mary Beth Martinez and I went to the Edge with my Brother to watch the Bronco game. Man the bar was nice with the upgraded TV's HD. Haley the Manager was wonderful and the Pizza was the BOMB. We had a great time and I will come back. I am still a VIP. I love the Edge. read more

Been eating their pizza since I was a boy! Over 25 years now. The quality never changes! The service is always the best! Nothing like a Howdy special with that perfect sausage you can't find anywhere else. Buttery crust dipped in homemade ranch and a frozen scooner of Coors OG on tap. Go get yourself some now if you already haven't and afterward go walk it off around Sloan's lake. read more

Two Words: Stay Away. :( It pains me to say this about such a long standing Edgewater tradition, but the "Inn" as its simply called is in another one of its cyclical funks. And a deep one at that. Several years ago this place, fresh off a new patio and new windows inside was hitting some high marks with its classic and long standing recipes dating all the way back to the owners mother. The pizzas were rocking, the staff happy and vibe lively. Wow how things have tumbled. It seems the deep rooted family recipes and ingredients have made way for pure Sysco cafeteria like tastes and all the joy is gone out of this once fabled establishment. The last two times I've had a pie there, including once their famous Piasono pizza, the pizza was hardly recognizable and honestly tasted like something from the frozen food section. What happened!? It tastes to me like they are trying to cut every possible corner and you just can't mask the flavor of someone cutting corners where it counts most. The sauce was bland, easy to forget; the toppings had not a hint of freshness to them, and my request for 'extra cripsy' or well down was just plain ignored. The other recent time even a plane peperoni was easily outdone by any pizza in your local King Soopers. The Inn's pies used to be something to crave - but now, everything tastes like there is no more love or joy put in the ingredients. The staff seems to be doing the best with what they have - but unlike years ago, there just seems to be no joy coming from anywhere here - especially in the food department. Flat screens are nice inside, and it the vibe can stil be at times a bit charming - but with so many options popping up around Edgewater, I'd say explore something else while the Inn gets its act back together. They recently started a lunch buffet for all you can eat pizza and salad on weekdays during lunch and if you want the exact taste of your high school - hit this. Pizzas come out slow as you can imagine, sit under heart lamps for most the time, have no body and are soggy as all get out. The salad is brown and wilted. Its a rough go. Bring back the old recipes and love! And I forgot to add - any holiday at ALL in the weak you are planning to go? Better call ahead. They close for four days at a time often on basically every holiday weekend, large or small - heck they are even closed on Super Bowl Sunday! Oh - and their website doesn't work Too bad the love is so plainly missing from this once proud establishment. read more

Pretty damn good! I had the white 'za with toasted pine nuts, roma tomatoes, and artichoke hearts. I don't do red sauce (EVER), so it's always good to find a pizza joint that offers a decent caucasian option! This one was tasty... very heavy on the garlic, very light on the artichoke hearts (not sure there were any, actually). But the addition of pine nuts was a stroke of brilliance! Definitely the high point of the 'za, right there. And really, who needs artichoke hearts anyhow? The crust is thinnish, but not crackery: a nice middle ground. And they're not shy with the cheese in this joint... at least not on the white 'za! My arteries are hardening as we speak. Service is nothing to write home about. Our waitress seemed a bit flustered, and brought us four sides of ranch dressing when only one was asked for. "This way you can each have your own," she volunteered. Okay, fine. But kind of weird when we got the tab and noticed that each side of ranch cost us fifty cents! No biggie, though... since my kiddo decided he wanted to take a splashy, ranchy bath in one of those little ramekins. Yeah... don't worry. I cleaned it all up. I'm good like that. read more

This good, but not great. No love letter will be sent, and their pizza will not make an appearance in my head as I'm running like a hamster on my treadmill. The dough had a nice consistency: not too thick (for a medium crust), not crispy but not chewy..so props on that. The cheese was spread over the pizza like the blanket your grandma knitted with all the holes. Sorry but I like gooey cheese not "this is the last bit so stretch it out" storyline. The sauce: OK. Better than Papa johns but reminded me of condensed tomato soup. I no want soup I wants pizza! I'll go somewhere else, especially since this is not in my neck of the woods. read more

Edgewater Inn, to me, is like that girl you went on a date with some Tuesday after work. You took her to dinner, the conversation wasn't great, and you never bothered to call. Then that weekend you're coming home from a bar absolutely shit faced when suddenly all you want to do is call that boring girl and screw her brains out because you're wasted and even though she was sort of a drag, dear lord she had an amazing rack. So you call her, and she's wild in bed. And then you decide you want to spend the rest of your life with her. Cheers read more

A friend and I were searching for a place on a Friday night around 7:30 pm that didn't have a wait. My trusty Yelp app pointed me to the Edgewater Inn. I had heard many good things about the food here. I gave them a quick call and we were told that there wasn't much of a wait so off we went. We arrive and found parking right away. There is street parking and a small lot across the street. We were seated immediately. Our waitress was outstanding. I wish I would have gotten here name but I didn't. She was the awesome, spunky, cheerful blonde waitress. She was running from table to table and still found time to provide some explanation of the menu and answer any questions that we had. She was attentive but didn't hover. We opted for the pizza and salad. The paisono salad was huge. If you like chunky blue cheese dressing for your salad I would opt for a different selection - it wasn't chunky and only had a hint of blue cheese flavor - if they had told me it was ranch I would have believed them. Our pizza selection was the Howdy Special - sausage, mushrooms, green peppers, black olives, jalapenos, and house seasoning. We opted to remove the green peppers and add green olives. As their menu states there is a charge for substitutions on the House Special pizzas. We did the math and it was actually a tad cheaper to do the substitution than to create our own pizza. We were going to order the medium however the waitress pointed out we could get the large for only a $1 more. So we went for it. We were both able to take home 3 large slices of pizza. It reheated so nicely - two meals for the price of one. Or actually four meals for the price of two. read more

Verdict on the pizza: I guess, we now finally know! When something is THAT disgusting, all other forms of the same product are taste equally disgusting! I stopped in last night with some friends to grab dinner. Two of my party has been here before, the other two had not (this is important to note, as a fair assumption regarding guests: would be to not treat them to an experience such as this). Service was very...VERY.. slow. Drinks were expensive: $8:00 for a glass of house red wine. That is a lot in my opinion; as we are probably talking about one of the famous vineyards that are talked about regularly in AA classes. Appetizers: We ordered wings...which were so vinegar soaked they literally burned the mouth to eat. They also took 20 minutes to arrive at the table. Pizza #1 : To be completely honest here, we ordered a "Sweetness" pizza, which 4 our of 4 people in our group confirmed, came with Velveeta, not the promised America Cheese on it. The taste was terrible...but we waited close to half an hour to get it, so we feared sending it back would result in a longer wait. Pizza #2: During the wait period for the wings (20 minutes) we ordered two pizza's as there were 4 of us, and we were very hungry. The second pizza was the "Howdy". which oddly enough tasted a whole lot like the "Sweetness". Despite being a very different concoction of toppings...terrible! I and another member of our party spoke of how a place like this could keep its doors open while service and food was as it is. The best we cam up with, was that it is operating solely off of name sake and a once revered reputation. read more

I don't get it. You get a giant schooner of beer that you either A) have to drink fast so that it doesn't get warm by the time to get to the bottom or B) pretend you're in Jolly Olde England and that the beer is supposed to be room temperature as it takes a while to finish a beverage of this size. Actually, I suppose its a good thing that they set you up with a beverage that will last 40 minutes, as that is how long the pizza will take (at least) and your server will likely not check on you in the meantime. As with many of the pizza joints in Denver (including Bonnie Brae Tavern), the sweetness of the crust is a big turn off to this Jersey Girl. The place always seems packed though, so someone must be drinking the Kool Aid. Its just not me. read more

Love, love, love Edgewater's pizza. It's true, the service is sometimes spotty and there is often a crowd, but to me it's totally worth it. Favorite by far is the Sweetness sans black olives. It has an amazing flavor that is robust but not overpowering. It has American and mozzarella cheeses and the combo makes for a very creamy texture that you don't find on a lot of pizzas. Crust? Yum. Coming in a close second is the Big Easy - exceptionally yummy. They have a pretty great house salad - the Paisano - big enough to share and features pepperoni, olives, mozzarella and peppers and lots of other good stuff - also highly recommended. And as other posters have mentioned, the Moscow Mules are indeed something to experience. Yes it's small. Yes it's often crowded. Yes the service can be slow. But whether I pick up or dine in, I have never been disappointed in the pizza at the Edgewater Inn. P.S. every time I've gone the veggies are totally fresh - they DO use canned mushrooms though (God only knows why) so I'd recommend skipping them. read more

Don't waste your time or money on their pizza, it was really awful. The crust was definitely pre-made and not hand thrown - and tasted like cardboard - not eatable- we've had much better at pizza chains. Toppings might have been OK but they were over cooked, almost burnt, so we really couldn't tell. Maybe it was just a bad night for them. We won't be back. read more

A coworker and I stopped in today for lunch. We'd had an underwhelming experience here last year but thought we'd give it another try (since it was the only restaurant open on that street). Unfortunately, we won't be back. First of all, it took around 40 minutes from when we ordered to get our food. I get it, real food takes time to make, blah blah. But when we're the only people in the restaurant, 40 minutes is a bit extreme. Especially considering that a table came in after us (20 minutes after us!) and were served their pizza before us. Maybe they called ahead or something, but we were not happy. Our server was attentive while we were waiting but never gave us any explanation as to what was taking so long. Secondly, the pizza needs salt. We had a white pizza and a combo pizza of some kind, and even when the pizza was covered in sausage, it still needed salt. The sauce had no flavor, the cheese had no flavor, the crust had no flavor. I did detect a little bit of olive oil flavor in the crust, but it came and went pretty fast. Third, they use canned mushrooms on their pizzas!!!! I wasn't sure before but my friend confirmed this. SLIMY and gross, especially for a place that's known to have the best pizza in town. As a positive, they did LOAD on the toppings. Again, though, they were flavorless toppings, so really what's the point?? (Except for the Italian sausage, which was fantastic!) A restaurant is nothing without great food, and I'm sorry to say, Edgewater Inn, you do not have great food. read more

If you're looking for the classic New York pizza, Chicago style pie, or one of those wood-fired Neopolitans then the Edgewater Inn is probably not for you. There's a bunch of other spots around town for that itch. This is a fun, dive-type bar with their own style of pizza. Kind of like those stories where a scientist discovers a a group of people living completely off the grid that does things their own way, after damn near 60 years of evolving their pizza to fit the tastes of their mostly blue collar patrons you get what you have now. A unique pizza that usually hits it's mark, especially on those "grab some beers and get some good grub" occasions. This weekend a friend and I hit the bar for a drink and got a pizza to go, we were not disappointed. Yes, the Guinness was out of a can but they poured it into a schooner and all was well. The salads are decent, and I've helped take down a tower of onion rings that were above average. They have a few other apps, sandwiches, and something they call a canoli that would appear to be a stromboli. The main attraction is the pizza - and beer. My usual order is the Sweetness, a combo of pepperoni, sausge, hamburger, black olives (which I say hold 'em) and American cheese - which I have to say adds a level of creaminess that is surprisingly good. Also, as an added bonus they tilt towards the east when it comes to the choice of sausage. Sliced links, which usually have a much better flavor than the pre-cooked chunks of questionable content that is found at most other pizza joints. I've also enjoyed the Chicken Pesto, Howdy Special, and BBQ Chicken combos. Good location, easy parking, reasonably priced, and schooners of beer all add up to a fun way to spend some time with friends! read more

My favorite pizza place in Denver. The cold schooners of draught beer are the perfect compliment to your pizza. My go-to pizza is the "Sweetness", which I modify by adding jalapenos and ordering it "extra, extra, extra juicy". Awesome. read more

I am the spaghetti connoisseur and this place is almost there. So, first and foremost, my rating weighs on my impression of the spaghetti. I liked it, but it could have drained another minute. The atmosphere here is awesome! I love it. Just relax and enjoy yourself. It's a neighborhood place with a neighborhood feel. Also, the spooners are awesome! It's seriously the best way I've ever drank Coors Light. My advice: come for a pizza and some spooners. You will love it! read more

Umm YUM! When you're in the mood for sitting down and eating a rockin' pizza, Edgewater Inn is the place to go. I'm a fan of cheese and veggie style but my boyfriend was in the mood for a hefty pie. We got the biggest size pizza with three types of cheeses, black olives, ground beef, pepperoni and sausage on eight large slices. Oh man - I will never forget that sausage... Besides great pizza it's also a cool date place, with killer oldies playing in the background, 50s and 60s style. We also noticed that it's a great place to take someone if you don't want to be seen. (We witnessed a blind date gone stumbling drunk...it was amazing.) I guess it's a little pricey for pizza but when you see the toppings, you understand why. The beers were a deal - $3.75 for an enormous Blue Moon. The service was good around 8:00pm, I can imagine this place gets busy around peak hours. Love it..I can't stop thinking about the sausage and I want to get a calzone stuffed with it. read more

I first walked into the banquet room, not realizing. people were looking at me, so I said, "so I just go in here and make myself comfortable?" a nice girl with a Miller Light bottle said, "yea, come on in! you want a beer?", and gave me a beer. = man, this place is great! = "do you have whisky?", (I don't usually drink beer). "huh - you're getting started early, aren't you?", she replies. turns out it WAS the banquet room and I walked into a celebration of life for Ron, who just passed away. I don't know Ron; it was a private party. I found the entrance on the corner. man, what a great place; I was so comfortable here. Guiness and a Jameson's, neat. my buddy had a ginormous bowl of Coors draught and a Glenlivet with a few rocks. Howdy pizza and mozz stix. I ended up only eating one slice - the toppings were generous, to say the least, and the pie was great! Kelly, our bar tender was pleasant, attentive, and charming. I've spoken to natives in the area (the few that remain), and they all rave about this place. but only when I've brought it up. I'm so glad I finally made it; I'll be back again for the calzones. read more

Really good pizza! Have great choices for toppings. Even my husband who never eats the crust likes the pizza crust on Edgewater Inn pizzas. It's becoming our latest go-to for pizza. read more

This was a welcome surprise. Not sure how i haven't tried this place yet, but i guess every time i get in that area US Thai grabs me. Some friends invited me here and I was a little hesitant because of alot of the sub par pizza joints in the area. But from the moment we were seated i had a good feeling. Service was good and quick, if i needed something it was probably already delivered before i could ask. We ended up getting a large thin crust pepperoni with green and red peppers. Right away the topping distribution was excellent, ingredients were fresh and the crust was cooked perfectly. I would highly recommend if you want a solid pie in the sloans lake area. read more

Been here three times now, in the three weeks we've lived in the neighborhood! Yes, the place is small, there's usually a wait, and the service isn't the best EVER. BUt the food is great, the drinks are generous and the prices are very, very reasonable. Went with the husband last night and we each got a Calzone (Which I highly recommend. WOnderful, hot and huge. We both brought leftovers home for dinner tonight), he had 2 beers and I had 3 mixed drinks, for about $40. I've only had their fries, onion rings, pizza and calzone. The fries where meh (frozen) but everything else was awesome. If you're in the neighborhood and want a yummy, affordable place to eat, definitely give this a try. read more

Food-5 Service-4 I love the pizza at Edgewater Inn! We order it a lot for work functions. The most popular by far is the BBQ Chicken pizza (although too spicy for some). The service has always been great as well. read more

We visited Edgewater Inn a few weeks ago with our 4 month old and a couple of good friends. EI has been on my radar for quite awhile after I had heard that they have really good pizza in an old school atmosphere. I have been looking forward to this for a couple of years. You know what? It's A-OK! Good, solid pizza. Not the best I've ever had, and nowhere near the worst I've ever had. Plenty of toppings, solid and tasty crust, and plenty of cheese. The pizza we had was topped with sausage and mushrooms (we built our own) and was served hot out of the oven. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of slices of sausage on my pizza - I prefer the clumps (but not rabbit pellets: gross!) - but this sausage was pretty good even though it was sliced. We also had the cheese garlic bread, which was also very good. The atmosphere inside EI is also pleasing. It reminds me of the days long before granite counter tops and oversized everything. It probably feels cramped to a lot of people, but to me it feels cozy. The booths, tables, hell, everything is pretty old, but it gives the bar/restaurant character. I like character. It won't be a regular stop for me, but it will be a stop. read more

Love this place. Good beer and great pizza. The atmosphere has a great "dive bar" feel. Love that. Feels like home in the place- not stuffy. Yes, canned mushrooms on the Howdy pizza. Don't seem to mind it though. Wish they were fresh but it won't stop us from ordering. Pizza is a great alternative to our #1 Ernie's Pizza. More neighborhood feel at Edgewater Inn. That is a plus. read more

This place was highly recommended by an old Edgewater neighborhood dweller that I met at the Broncos game. I got the Howdy Special and a couple of salads to carry out. She said it would be a half hour. I got there a little late and still waited 15 minutes for my order, but there was a really friendly waitress that chatted up NFL football with me while I waited so it wasn't so bad. The total came to around $28. The pizza easily weighed three to four pounds as it was over-packed with toppings. It definitely seemed worth the money. Food for three days and some light bicep workouts. Everything tasted okay. Nothing fancy. The pizza was a little on the bland side. I might go back one day since it's so close to my house, but I wouldn't jump in front of a car to make it happen. read more
