Best pizza around! If you don't want pizza, there's always "A bowl of balls" so delicious! Dessert is gelato!! read more

On the evening of Wednesday August 12th I experienced one of worst dining experiences in my entire life (and I'm 65 yrs old)! I Waited nearly 2 hours for burnt Hawaiian pizza that tasted like cardboard. It didn't have ANY tomato sauce or spices. I guess me asking if the pizza was done 3X over a 2 hour period was RUDE!!! Not all was lost...the ham and pineapple were eaten! Worse than the pizza is the service. Nobody could figure out how to order. Do I sit first...nope...unless you sit at the bar. Then you get the worst service EVER! I tried to leave after 1.5 hours but I couldn't get the bartender's attention. This was a self learned behavior and the only way she could get a tip. I guess she figures if she can keep you there long enough, the pizza may get to you and thus you have to pay her! To experience Groundling Pizza is to experience how bad a restaurant can function in service and food preparation. You treat customers as grifters. Catch a clue...close your so called pizza restaurant and do the community a service. ps...I left my pizza on your bench at the entrance - opened box for everyone to see how bad your pizza IS!!! read more

We happened to be in Gold Beach for the weekend and swung by Groundlings on a recommendation. We walked in and found the restaurant side and a bar side. We went into the bar and were greeted by JJ. The service was outstanding. We ordered the Bowl of Balls, which were served with breadsticks. The pizzas we ordered were the Groundlings Hawaiian, the Pepperoni As Fu$k and the Milk and Honey. All of the food was delicious and came with dill ranch dressing on request. The bar was great as well with a lot of choices for draught or bottled beer as well as mixed drinks. The atmosphere was great and overall a great experience. read more

Omg a frickin awesome find off the 101 in sleepy Gold Beach, OR. Don't pass this place up. Sweet pies, full bar, and an amazing view of the Rogue River just above the Issac Lee Patterson Bridge, built in the 30's. I had the Milk N Honey and added pepperoni. Amazing! Gotta check t hi a place out! read more

Seems to be one of the few restaurants opening here at night. Beautiful view of the river. You can see otters flipping around in the water occasionally by the outdoor dining area Pretty busy inside. You need to order by the front and pay first The sausage calzone is not really my thing. Way too many unchopped garlic(like half of the content). I thought it would be pieces of round cut-sausage but it's more of ground meat with some kind of white sauce. It gets really heavy after a few bites. The pickled banana pepper isn't helping the heaviness either. But others seem to like it. The four cheese pizza is also pretty basic. I personally would not go back They also have some interesting gelato flavors selling inside. read more

We love having groundlings right down the street and have tried many of their menu items. This evening we ordered A Fungus Amungus-pistachio pesto, pecorino, fresh mozzarella, oyster mushrooms and beer sausage. Our friends ordered You Get More Beautiful Everyday- tomato sauce, Parmesan, mozzarella, soppresatta salami, roast garlic, hot honey. Both are delicious. We also love the calzones, our grandson went nuts for the s'mores one last summer I can't wait to take him back this summer. Drinks were tasty, service was great and they even had live music while we were there. -Andi read more

What a great spot. We were staying across the street, on our way north to a family reunion, and I am so glad we took the easy route to dinner and walked to Groundling. The wood-fired pizza was incredible (we got "Jack's missing finger") and I really enjoyed the pear and Gorgonzola salad. The service was so friendly and attentive (thank you, JJ!). And oh my goodness, if you are in town on a Saturday night, stop by and see if Bobby Joe Holman is cranking out his beautiful bluesy tunes... He travels up from Brookings most weekend to wield his craft, and he is such a talent (and a treasure of a human being!!). Our evening at Groundling was a highlight of our road trip. read more

The drinks and beer were great and the pizza was better! Nice friendly place with a killer view of the Rogue. Nice outdoor patio area where dogs are allowed. We had the Smelly Nelly with mushrooms and 3 different cheeses. The crust was superb. Thin and charred on the bottom, with a nice "chew" that tasted like it had some sourdough in it. Oh and the bathrooms rock too! Gold Beach is darn lucky to have this gem. read more

Worth seeking out! Groundlings Pizza is the kind of place you stumble upon once and then tell everyone about. Tucked away on Jerry's Flat Road, it's truly a rare find. The artisanal pizzas are made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and you can actually sit and watch them prepare everything right in front of you, which in my opinion, makes the food taste even better. The pizzas are interesting, thoughtfully crafted, flavorful, and clearly made with care. There's something special about seeing the process and knowing your food is being made fresh from start to finish. If you're looking for excellent pizza off the beaten path, Groundlings Pizza is absolutely worth the trip. A true hidden gem! read more

Fantastic pizza with fresh, flavorful ingredients and a perfectly cooked crust. The service was just as impressive. Friendly & welcoming

we ordered the white pizza with honey drizzle, and it was one of the best pizzas I've had in a long time! I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Great pizza in an idyllic location along the mighty Rogue River as it reaches the Pacific Ocean. Views of the river, summer sunsets, and the Isaac Lee Patterson Memorial Bridge. Indoor and outdoor seating, friendly staff, well curated drinks menu, fresh ingredients, creative combinations, and deliciously crispy crusts made this a memorable start to our journey up the Oregon Coast. Looking forward to visiting again. read more

Would definitely come back here! The pizza was delicious, the workers were so nice, and the location is perfect! read more

We got half smelly Nelly (AMAZING) and half pepperoni (also amazing) we had to do all red sauce to do this combo. It was still so so so good. We got a ride of ranch not expecting it to be the dill ranch and it was intense with the dill flavoring. They had a little live band playing tonight. Beautiful view of the river. Pizza crust was perfectly crispy and soft. Service was great! I can see why everyone rates this place so highly!!! I'd come back just for the pizza! read more

We were in Gold Beach for work, and since it's such a small town, there aren't a ton of dining options and most places only have "okay" reviews. The last time we were here, we tried another spot with decent ratings, but the experience was the total opposite of what we expected... it was pretty bad. So, going into this place, my expectations weren't high. But the reviews looked solid, and honestly, it's hard to mess up pizza right? Well, I'm happy to say this spot totally delivered. We ordered a simple cheese, a pepperoni, and what I think was their combo (can't remember the exact name), and every single one was delicious. The crust was thin and crispy on the bottom with just the right amount of chew, and it had great flavor. The toppings were all fresh and balanced perfectly. The staff was awesome and super friendly, made great recommendations, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Overall, this was one of those unexpected finds that totally exceeded expectations. 10 out of 10 recommend if you're ever in Gold Beach and craving some really good pizza! read more

The Smelly Nelly, Arch Porter and Pale Ale were good. The pizza was delicious. The service was horrible. We were not greeted at the door and had to figure out to seat ourselves. The bartender obviously was very tired, busy, and /or had a major life event on her mind. The weight of the world appeared on her shoulders. No greeting with a smile when I looked at her and smiled. Arrived at 7:10 and saw that they close at 8:00. Not a good sign. Eventually another lovely server arrived. We never saw her again. It took over an hour to get our pizza. It was not overly busy and tables were clearing as they were closing. When the pizza arrived, we got a box to go as we wanted to catch the sunset. The pricing was decent. 12 oz beers $4. Pizza $23. Ranch dressing $2??? Wt? No mention on the menu that we'd be charged. A slight turn off given such poor service. The kitschy bathroom signs and photos were cute initially but then I just thought they were crass and dirty given our experience. And overall the place seemed a bit dirty and an off vibe. Very disappointed. It's rare that I give reviews like this especially from places reviewed highly. Just a bad night? I'll give them that and hope they can do better for others. read more

The pizzas here are delicious! My favourites are Smelly Nelly, Bill the Gravel Guy, and Naked & Famous. Their pizzas are truly creative and unique. They also have amazing bartenders. Sam is a true mixologist. Her margaritas have to be the best that I've tasted, anywhere. She uses a bespoke mixer that she created herself, and it's incredible. The people here, like the atmosphere, are warm and welcoming. There's a great bar, screens with sports on, as well as separate areas with tables for families. There are also outdoor tables looking out over the Rogue River - magical in the summer. read more

The Hawaiian was my favorite pizza I've had in years! Service was great. Can't wait to try more next time we're in town.

Food is great. However, the service is not. My wife and I came in at 5:30 for dinner. There were 3 employees standing around, 1 cleaning a table, the other 2 just standing there talking. We waited for atleast 5 mins before a young girl came over with water. No Hi, No Welcome to Groundings not even a smile. She said let me know when you want to order, could barely here her. Then took our order without writing it down with a few minor changes and screwed it up. We were the only patrons in there. I know I am at s Pizza/Bar but someone needs to teach the staff how to be more inviting and pleasant. The other issues, we are trying to enjoy ourselves and there is rap music coming from the cooking area. Not a fan, found it annoying, because it was quiet in there maybe it just seemed loud. read more

Beautiful location, friendly service and great food & drinks. I can't remember which pizza we ordered but it had burrata and balsamic vinegar, delicious! I ordered a house cocktail, also can't remember which one it was, something "cassis" and it was so good I ordered a second. read more

The atmosphere was good, funny pictures on the walls, a nice mural with the Groundling Pizza slogan - "unsophisticated pizza 4 unsophisticated people". We ordered 4 different pizzas, the Hawaiian with red sauce and one regularly, the pepperoni, and the milk and honey. All were good, but my mom thought the cheese on the Hawaiian was bleu cheese and didn't like the taste. (I wanna say it's actually Gorgonzola?) We also ordered the calzone and the dessert calzone. THESE ARE GAME CHANGERS!! I live out of the area and will be dreaming about the dessert calzone for weeks. If they weren't closed on Monday I probably would have insisted we went back to get another one before we travel back to the Bay Area. It was delicious how they combined Nutella and marshmallow fluff with the torch of a pizza oven inside a pizza bread topped with graham crackers. The savory calzone was also delicious. It was meaty, creamy and all things enjoyable! Price was good for the value, service was good, had a live pianist playing in the background. Would definitely come back (and will, especially for the s'mores calzone - lol) read more

This was the best pizza I've had. I am visiting from Vegas, and my mom recommended this place. Definitely worth it. I love the different kind of pizzas they have, not just your typical cheese and pepperoni. The flavors were amazing and everything tasted great. Staff was really nice too, I'll definitely be back! read more

The food is really really great! The atmosphere is chill and there's a view of the Rogue river. The staff are friendly and helpful.

I buy pizza here once per week. I called for a pick up pizza on Monday for the football game. The last pizza was very dry and burnt. I explained that to the rude young man who answered the phone. I stressed that the last pizza was almost ruined for us between the burnt edges, all the way around, and the lack of sauce to provide taste and moisture. When I got there, the young man was unhelpful when I told him I was not going to pay for extra sauce. That I had previously explained the last was too dry and to ensure this one had enough sauce. I eat there a lot, I just had their meatballs 4 days ago! I am disappointed in the service and the pizza. This place used to be better, even when they were swamped in tourist season. The owners used to care and appreciated regulars. Oh well, no pizza and an unhappy customer! read more

This is the best food in Gold Beach. I'm not sure what the people of Gold Beach did in order to be blessed with the presence of an elite wood fired pizza joint like this, but don't sleep on Groundlings, this is the place to go. Pizza is TOP TIER. It was so good the first night we came back a second day in a row. The only problem with Groundlings is they don't have a location in Beaverton. When we get home from this vacation, I'm going to be missing Groundlings. read more
