Came into Forage after hearing some great things from locals in the area. The server that was working was amazing, she was extremely welcoming, and hilarious, she made our experience 10 times better than any place we've been to recently! The food, oh my gosh the food was soooo good! We loved that they used an old Victorian style home, it just adds so much charm! We will definitely be back when we come back into the area! read more

Left on the patio with no service. We booked online thinking the weather was perfect for outside. Possibly under staffed to meet the outside booking read more

We were in the mood for pizza and the hotel staff said they had heard good things about Forage. It's in an old house and has a patio and a back area to eat outside which is lovely. Th server looked a bit overwhelmed and said she would get to us as soon as she could. So we went outside to the back to wait. I'm not sure of the reason for it taking well over an hour to get our dinner with the beer my husband ordered being warm and my wine only having a couple of saved sips by the time the pizza came because there wasn't any communication about why it was taking a long time. However, the pizza was interesting, fresh and piping hot! We got the special which was house-made sausage with kale and goat cheese. The kale was very bitter so I ended up taking some of it off. The rest of the ingredients were a great combination and the house-made sausage is fabulous! The crust is absolutely perfectly made and cooked! If I knew it wasn't going to take so long to get my food I would definitely say this place is next on to miss! read more

We were in the area for wine tasting. First time in. Everyone was nice and attentive. The food was wonderful. We ordered two pizzas and some entrees. The meat lovers and pepperoni. I had the chicken risotto and we all shared the chocolate panna cotta dessert. Everything was delicious. Definitely will be back. read more

Ending a full day winery experience and heard so much about this restaurant. Well it does not disappoint. With three people at the helm-chef, sous chef and one server they worked fast and provided great service. The meal just mirrored the same sentiment. The place is quaint and in what look like used to be a home. They have indoor and outdoor seating. A variety of wine selection and beverage choices as well. Don't leave without having a pasta, pizza, beverage and salad. They have specials. Lean into it. Total costs less than $100. And took a doggie bag home. read more

The pizza is delicious every time. I love the forage salad as well. It's quaint and the staff is quite friendly.

We were so excited to try this restaurant, but wish we had never been. We made a reservation for 5pm on a Thursday as I knew I'd be bringing my baby and toddler and wanted it to be the least disruptive to others. The Restaruant had only 2 other tables occupied. We were seated immediately which was nice, but it took over 30 minutes to even order (even after trying to make eye contact with the server multiple times). After a long wait, we asked the server how the food was coming along and he gave us a dirty look and said "well it's coming" very rude. We waited for 2 pizzas and 2 basic meat sauce pastas for over an HOUR (assuming these were not made until minutes prior as pizzas in the oven take less than 15 min - we have a pizza oven!). By this time our baby and toddler are overly hungry, tired, and sick of waiting so my baby was crying. We did everything to calm him - brought toys and a show out, took him on walks around the building, played game and read books, but the server and staff were giving us dirty looks, and whispering about us to each other. We were absolutely SHOCKED at the looks at attitude we kept receiving - to the point that the table behind us said they couldn't believe it either. The server meanwhile never checked in on us once. Didn't fill waters. Didn't even bring a water for my kids. It was clear they DO NOT WELCOME CHILDREN here. We eat out frequently with our children and have never ever experienced this treatment or ever felt so unwelcome. My husband ended up leaving before food was even served to drive the baby around. Regarding the food taste: Our food was really not appetizing and actually bad. The pasta sauce tasted like cheap canned sauce and we couldn't even eat it! We left the whole bowl and didn't eat it or bring it home. Yuck. The pizza was decent but one of ours came out completely underdone (photo attached of it in the box). We didn't ask for it to be cooked longer since we had already waited over an hour and felt so uncomfortable by the staff. read more

Forage - Not raw, but super undercooked and doughy with no color like other other pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Newberg, Oregon

Valentine's Day is a busy night but to arrive for our 6pm reservation and find the two staff members so overwhelmed and stressed already was a bad sign. We were sat at 6:30. People around us decided to leave because they had sat for half an hour without service. We went and got our water ourselves. We should have left but all other restaurants were booked. Our pizza arrived at 7:30 and was lukewarm. No apologies from staff or even a welcome or check in about our food. Not sure what was going on or if this is a usual experience there but we won't be back. read more

Disappointing, we decided to try it after reading some reviews claiming "best pizza", not the case. They were short staffed so it took a long time, especially the entrees. The pizza was burned and too salty, I like mine well done and my husband loves salty but way too much! We had appetizers that were ok, Caesar was bitter with old lettuce, so not good. For the price, we won't be back, $100+ for two, without drinks, overpriced and under delivered. read more

Wow! This pizza was AMAZING! Meat lover pizzas are usually not my first choice but that's what the hubs wanted. I'm glad I went with his choice (and added mushrooms). It was SO tasty! Not too much sauce. Just enough crunch on the crust. We wanted a good wood fire pizza and man did we get it! One pizza was enough for us both. We also got the Caesar salad, was good - not great thus the 4 stars. Service was salad. Super nice waiter. We read about slow service. They were busy, and they didn't have a lot of staff. They weren't slow per se, but were not fast, which was fine as we weren't n a rush. Regardless- worth the time. It was GOOD read more

Forage - Meat lovers pizza (with mushrooms) and Caesar salad (it was HUGE - could feed 3-4) - Pizza Near Me - Newberg, Oregon

Mainly Pizza, Pasta and salads. Very nice wine list. Pizza was better than pasta which was not served hot enough and not served with bread (though pizza crust was excellent and served as a bread substitute). Not all that I expected but I will give it another try in the future. read more

The food alone is a solid 4.5 stars. The service was 2 stars at best. Long Story; We got there and waited 20 minutes for someone to seat us, (they were not super busy, but it looked like maybe understaffed). No one asked us to wait or said they would be right over, or that they were short staffed. Once seated it took, another 15 minutes for someone to take our order. We ordered one pizza and a salad, no beverages (just water). The server didn't write down our order.... Came back 10 minutes later to confirm our order (thankfully, because he had the wrong pizza). Just over 45 minutes later... (so we've now been at the restaurant for over 90 minutes). The pizza and the salad came. The Caprese salad was pretty, but had double the amount of tomatoes vs cheese, but the flavor was good. The pizza that was brought to us was the wrong one (stick with me here), the same wrong one we had corrected the server on earlier. He switched it for the right one from the table next to us (thinking they ordered the one he brought us). Turns out they didn't order that one and we just got their pizza, which was the right one for them and for us (we ordered the same pizza). We got to keep it, and they had wait for a new one. Overall we enjoyed our food, but over two hours at a restaurant with little to acknowledgement of the situation, (the wait, the wrong food etc.) is pretty bad. The bill came and the pizza we didn't order (which had a higher price tag) was the pizza on the bill. At that point, we had been there for over two hours and just wanted to go home so we just paid the bill. I work in the service industry a simple "I'm sorry this is taking a really long time", or maybe a heads up before they sat us that they were short staffed etc., also "Oh shoot I made a mistake on your order", would've gone a long way... it makes me think that maybe this is how it is here, in which case we definitely won't go back. However based on other reviews maybe it was an just an anomaly because of the staffing issues, etc. read more

Don't bring your kids here. This business is not welcoming of parties with kids! I was in the area from LA and wanted to give this place a try so we walked in. The margarita pizza and pesto pizza were fine. What really made me feel unwelcome was the server. I brought my toddlers who were being normal toddlers and laughing while waiting for the food. The server was nowhere to be seen most of the time, and he didn't come once to check in on us. The only time he approached us was when my toddlers were being normal loud toddlers, said," this is too loud" (gesturing toward my kids). Rude, but understandable. When I asked him if they had smaller or plastic cups for the toddlers rather than talk glass cups, he said "We don't. We usually don't get kids." That rubbed me the wrong way, as I saw an older kid across the table, and another customer walk in with two toddlers. I had to look for him in the back to order food, and again to pay the bill. Super disappointed and didn't feel welcome at all! read more

Food was great but service was really slow. One waiter for the entire restaurant. Be prepared for an over 2 hour eating experience..

I'm reluctant to share this review because I am not usually wowed by many restaurants these days. If you're looking for something a bit more upscale than the normal pizza and a beer place this is your spot! Everything about this place is off the charts! From the Marionberry lemonade to the caprase salad, then the artichoke dip and oven toasted bread... I could have stopped there but no I committed to eating the wood fired pizza... meat lovers and loosen your belt cause things we so tasty I was not asking for a take home box. Oh my goodness get yourself to this spot and enjoy it. I will be back and need to bring some friends. Enjoy!!! read more

We love the atmosphere. The service was friendly. And we absolutely loved the pizza. We also really enjoyed the non-alcohol beer that they offer there. read more

What a great experience me and my fiancée had when we came to Forage. The first time we drove by the place, we missed the turn so drive slow when you're going here! We were able to meet the owner, Chris who is also the chef himself. Safe to say, we will be back. The meat lovers pizza was incredibly good as it is wood fired, giving that crisp crunch to each bite. The cheese is cheesy in the best way and the vibes were immaculate. I loved the homey Italian vibe to the place. The music was incredibly chill; it's nice to go to a restaurant with music that is not overwhelming. We got the caesar salad which was perfect to share between two, and the apple galette for desert. The apples were cooked perfectly while being crunchy, the crust was fluffy, crispy and delightful. It was drizzled with honey and it was incredibly balanced with sweetness with a homemade whip cream on top. Not to mention-- the server was incredibly friendly and could not have asked for better service. I can't wait to come back, especially in the Summer! read more

What I really appreciated here was the service and uniqueness of Forage. It's in a quite old vintage home downtown which provides a unique experience for me. For one, you park back down a small driveway near the back patio which is an option for seating. You can also sit inside, or outside street side. SCW and I chose inside by a window and the menu is entirely on bar code. Fine, a little awkward for those who don't know how to use it but ok. We ultimately ordered the artichoke dip for starters and it was amazing. Very creamy, and flavorful. It came with amazing pita bread. Really amazing pita bread. We brought some back to our hotel it was that good. Nice char, great texture, really good. We also had the marghertia pizza. It was meh, ok. I really didn't find much flavor in it although it had been well crafted. It served it's purpose but I wouldn't necessarily order it again. I'm mostly plant based, but I'm not perfect in that regard. Sometimes I feel you just need to experience the local cuisine. Forage had slim options for plant based diners but the service and experience made up for it. read more

Can you give 5 Stars to a small converted house that makes artisan pizza and other entrees ? Has 1 server and 1 chef ? Yes you can ! We ended up there via a last minute google search looking for a decent pizza - We found a fantastic pizza, a great wine list (not just the usual Oregon Pinot fair) and some creative cocktails too ! Pizza crust was perfect, cheese and portions were just right. And they had a desert menu that went well with pizza ! We will be back ! read more

Made a reservation through Opendoor for today at 6:30, when we arrived the restaurant was closed. No note on the door, nothing. We weren't the only ones that arrived at that time also. They were regular customers who said they were always open on Mondays. read more

Saturday night 8:45 and it's closed....we were looking forward to wine and pizza. Not sure how the service and food is

Flew from south Florida and found this gem. Started off with polenta fries which were amazing and then The pizza was the BEST one I have ever had. Prosciutto, cherry tomatoes and basil. So glad we found the Forage. read more

This hidden gem is a 5 star every single day and twice on Sunday! I didn't know this place existed but saw someone mention it online and decided to check it out with my lady. We went on a Sunday evening, and there was a large party but still plenty of seating in this old house turned restaurant. When we finally got seated we checked out the menu and got a pizza with cherry tomato, prosciutto, and fresh basil, Caesar salad, and spinach dip. We got spinach dip first, it comes with homemade flat bread and was amazing! The dip is warmed in the wood fired oven, and the flat bread is so warm and chewy. We had to resist temptation to devour it all! The Caesar salad was also top notch with scratch made Caesar dressing, and fresh, crisp romaine. The star of the show was obviously the pizza. From the dough, to the sauce and fresh ingredients it was out of this world good! I want to try their homemade sausage next time! The sauce is perfectly seasoned and fresh, paired with the dough it is a match made in heaven! Get out here and check it out, you won't find better artisan pizza in newberg! read more

When you go wine tasting a side effect can be becoming tipsy. And there's no better remedy for inebriation than a good, wood fired pizza. This is one of those places that has you scan their code to bring up the menu on your phone. I really hate that because I never remember to put reading glasses in my purse. The gal was super helpful and brought out a printed copy for me. The girls started with a freshly made artichoke dip. I started with the caprese salad. It was almost too beautiful to touch. It had very even parts of red and yellow cherry heirloom tomatoes, basil and fresh mozzarella. My only real complaint is that the portion size of the salad was quite small considering it was $13.00. For our pizza we opted for the salami and kalamata olives. The pizza did not disappoint. The crust was crispy yet foldable. A perfect combination. The girls loved the artichoke dip. I gave it a try and thought it was rather bland and dry. Not what I look for in a dip. All in all I would definitely come back again. I might not order the caprese if they always make them so small but they have sandwiches and a calzone to try. There's a small parking lot in the rear of the building. 2021 - Review # 40 read more

Never know what you will find on the menu. The pizza is great. This is a fun place to eat. Little pricey.

Was visiting from CA, and wanted some good pizza. This place was recommended by one of George Fox students. When I ate a piece in the car while the pizza was still hot it was tasty. Got back to the hotel room to sit and eat the pizza was okay. I ordered sausage, and pepperoni and there was not much of either. I did like that the owner said they forged their ingredients. The place is small like a house almost. Maybe if we were able to dine in I would have had a better experience. Pizza wasn't bad but it could have been better. read more

This was a great find! We ordered takeout and sat at the bar while it was made and had a couple of cocktails a Marian Berry lemon drop and a classic Manhattan and they were excellent. Got back to our room and enjoyed the spicy sausage pizza which was also excellent. We Would totally go back here again if we lived closer! read more

A cute intimate spot for dinner. During my visit they only had pizza but boy was it good. its a chill small cozy spot. Service was decent and friendly. You can see the oven from the dining room so you know the pizza is legit. Came out hot and fresh with great toppings. I liked the pizza a lot. If youre in the area definitely a good option to check out. read more

Visited on a Sunday evening and had great service. Excellent pizza but it was actually the dessert that was a standout

Great cheese pizza, appetizer roasted pear stuffed with feta and prosciutto and caprese salad. Would go back.

I hope that the family that owns this establishment is OK because we placed an on line order that took our credit card and then drove here to no order. The place is dark. Maybe they are out of business. All their signs say open. Very disappointed. read more

This is a great find! Forage is a family-owned restaurant located in a restored ventage home in downtown Newberg. I was introduced to them when we were there for dinner on Father's Day. The people the run the place are incredible. They really are attentive and just fund to talk to. There is indoor/outdoor dining and some limited parking. They also have a bar. The prices are reasonable, and the food is great! read more

Really wanted to try this place out for Father's day. Seemingly a step above the fast food and the franchise restaurants around. The restaurant is inside and outside. In the back and in the front. The front is exposed to the traffic rolling by and revving their engines. You can block it out for sure. The back is all covered and real cozy. Either for that large group or that date you want to be a little extra romantic. The Pizza is wood fired. This one was slightly under cooked. Wood fired being part of your marketing you would think you would have it down. At such high temps it is a thin line between under cooked and burnt. It lacked cheese. Creating a slightly greasy pool on the top. Almost just not quite there. Steak was over done for medium rare. Seemed recooked from being cooked. Potatoes were reduced to one potato cut into fours. Onion rings were also recooked. A decent result just not as upscale as the price. A good friendly setting The tables and spacing make for some intimate space. Good for family dinner and date night. read more

Is it odd for me to start a review by saying that I had the best Caesar Salad ever? I am not sure what made it better than the rest, but it was delicious. It seemed to have the perfect ratio of dressing to lettuce, croutons, and parm. My only regret is that I had to share it was the other 3 at the table. Next time I am getting one all to myself. It is so good I might just return for the salad. We also had two pizzas and the artichoke dip with wood oven pita bread. The weather was perfect so we sat in the back patio, which for being just off the parking lot was absolutely adorable. read more

The gray house at the west end of town is easy to miss, but don't. the pizza is very good--the wood-fired crust with the right amount of char and crust, rich cheese blend and quality toppings. It's like being in someone's house with a good-humored house that just happens to have a wood-fired oven. The pasta and salads looked tasty, but we were there for the pie. read more
