    THE UMBRELLA
    Haley R.

    This is a super fun, dog friendly (during the week) place. Great appetizers, good drinks, friendly staff and delicious tavern style pizza. We went during the week and sat on the covered patio, what a fun atmosphere. The Italian chopped salad is delicious, loved the Matt Tavern style pizza and started with the feta dip with the honey and pistachio (wow!). There was so much to choose from and we loved it all.

    This was our first time visiting Happy Camper. We heard great things about it and wanted to give it a try for our Father's Day celebration with family. We absolutely loved the place and had a great time. We were even able to watch the World Cup soccer game while enjoying our meal...very Fun!!! The food was delicious, especially the corn dip, which was a favorite at our table, the drinks were so refreshing as well. We would definitely recommend it especially to big groups or if you want to watch the game while eating. We had only one issue we experienced with our server. He was nice an welcoming, but when he brought us the takeout boxes and then the check, he seemed to be in a rush and tossed them onto the table rather than placing them down. One of the boxes actually fell off the table, and we had to catch it. Although the place was not very busy at the time, the interaction felt rushed and made one member of my family uncomfortable. Other than that, we had a wonderful experience, enjoyed the food and atmospher. We look forward to coming back.

    TL;DR: Large fun open space with cute seasonal decorations paired with great service. Unfortunately, the food was just average Came with a large (10) party and the servers were kind enough to help arrange tables and seats to allow us to sit together on short notice. The server was quick to bring our orders and ask if we needed anything else, something that we all appreciated While we ordered 'carb-y' items, the lack of flavor was a let down. The pizza was only average and the crust was too bready to finish. The pretzel had a good color but it was missing the classic pretzel lye taste and tasted more like light dusting of baking soda. Don't let the large flakey salt fool you. The dips for all the dishes were the saving grace and although combined was alright, the food should not have to rely on the dip/sauce to save it. Street parking wasn't too difficult to find which was a plus Keeping Happy Camper in our back pocket for future family/friends gatherings

    Went with a group of friends on a Saturday night following the Rockies game and it was crowded. The ambiance has such a cute theme and very well themed out! The service was okay, especially with how busy it was! We started with a round of champagne flutes which kicked us off to a great start. We ordered some table apps that included: 1. Burrata: super fresh and I loved the garlic bread pieces! It definitely needs more. 2. Whipped Feta: this was good but a bit too sweet for my liking. A lot of honey, but such a great variety with pita and garlic bread 3. Elote Dip: perfectly cheesey, but could use bread over chips with this one. I wish it had an option! For pizzas we did two different ones: 1. Neubla: it was a spicy pepperoni with hot honey. Could definitely use more ricotta! but so good. 2. Chicken Pesto: this had a great crust However for BOTH pizzas it definitely needed more sauce, it was a bit too dry for both. Overall I would come back for the atmosphere! It was such a great time! Food was mid!

    Wow what a fun spot - great for groups! Thanks to our friend who picked this place - you definitely need reservations! I loved the whole ambiance - ground was all astro-turf and you're eating outdoors but the ceiling is all canopies - but you can see a sliding roof option when needed. The only downside with being outdoors is that the seats had a lot of debris which our butts helped clean when scooting over the booth seats (you're welcome!). Plates also covered with debris - but nothing a quick brush off can't help. Otherwise great menu selections and the food was all delicious - I'd still come again for sure! WHIPPED FETA - $15 Honey, pistachios, crostini, pita .... so good! BURRATA - $15 Fig jam, sun-dried pesto, basil, balsamic drizzle, crostini ... so good too! If you love sweet-n-salty, you will love this app. My favorite of the evening! BIRRIA 'ZA - $18 (small) The small size is a lot - I could only eat 2 slices (half pizza)! Birria beef, Chihuahua cheese, jalapenos, Spanish onions, cilantro, lime, garlic & oil, served w/ side of consomme. It was quite heavy & salty ... very filling for sure. The original crust was very good - crispy outisde, chewy inside. NADENE - $18 (small) Cupped pepperoni, hot honey, ricotta, basil, mozzarella, & marinara. Also original crust. Very good! Next time I'd like to try their Tavern style crust which is extra thin & crispy.

    Cute straw!

    This was our last stop on our Denver trip after I saw the crunchy chicken Caesar wrap on TikTok! There is free parking on the street, just make sure you watch the signs carefully! The staff here was SO sweet, very friendly and had great vibes! It wasn't busy while we were there but our server was fantastic! The decor in here is soooo cute! It's all outdoor stuff but brought indoors! There were bag hooks underneath the tables(love that!!) And some many large spaces to bring a larger group! We got the Nadene pizza and the viral crunchy chicken Caesar wrap! They were both phenomenal! I'm so sad we don't live local because we would absolutely be back!! The food service and vibes are all on point at this place! If you haven't tried them, get moving!

    This was my first time here. I came with my family and we decided to come during Happy Hour. Parking is on the street. We were able to find a spot just a block away. The entrance is a cool, twinkle light arched "hallway" that leads up to the host stand. We were welcomed in and seated at one of the high tops near the bar. There are so many cool seating options. Rebecca welcomed us and took our drink orders. I chose to have a glass of Les Sarrins Rosé. My husband got a drink called Trailer Park Queen that consisted of prosecco, St Germain & lemon. My son went for a mocktail called Ginger Baby that had Seedlip Grove, ginger beer, cucumber, mint & lemon. My daughter chose the peach flavor of High Noon. We chose two appetizers from the Happy Hour. Jalapeno Homies, jalapenos stuffed with cream cheese, bacon, cheddar and tomatoes. It came with a side of BBQ sauce. These were a hit! The barbeque sauce put it over the top. Our second appetizer was the hummus. It was roasted red pepper hummus with kalamata olives, sun-dried tomatoes and feta. It was served pita triangles, carrots and cucumber. My son ordered the Chicken Pesto Sandwich. It had grilled chicken, pesto, white American cheese, arugula, sun-dried tomatoes and was served on focaccia bread. It came with fries. He is a huge pesto fan and thoroughly enjoyed his sandwich. My husband, daughter and I decided to share two pizzas. We chose Matt, without mushrooms (I'm allergic). So that left us with the following toppings: mozzarella, Canadian bacon, pepperoni, Italian sausage, green peppers, black olives, cheddar and ranch. Our second selection was the Street Corn pizza. it had mozzarella, roasted corn, cotija cheese, cilantro, avocado crema, cream cheese and the cutest mini tajin bottle to shake on top. We chose the Tavern style, a thin crispy crust and cut into squares. There was enough left to bring home for all of us to have as lunch the next day. Both pizzas were delicious. My favorite was the Street Corn. Overall great experience. Nice staff, great food, fun beverages.

    We had a nice time! We ordered the cheese sticks and truffle fries both very good and lots of cheese. Pepperoni pizza was good a bit crunchy which isn't my preference. Staff is very friendly and food came out very quick. It's a fun spot, lots of photo opportunities and very fun vibes. Overall very much enjoyed our time!

    I don't even know how to describe this place other than saying it's appropriately named and there's not a thing I would add or take away from the decor or experience. I definitely felt like I'd spent the evening as a "happy camper." From the outside, the place has a glow and just seems loud. It's large. It takes over the entire intersection, though Avanti, the food court and bar with its two stories, towers across the street. It's just an electric energy that pulses from Happy Camper and its patrons. During the summer, the chill patio is hopping. During the winter, it's a warm shelter of neon, sparkle and a cool campfire. These pics are from a Wednesday evening, stopping in for dinner. We had our IDs checked at the door then walked through an arcade of fairy lights to get a table in the back, near the bar. Our server was a complete delight! She was well informed with the menu, helped me pick something that wasn't pizza to eat and guided my friend through a sampling of specialty cocktails while I sipped on my Diet Coke that she didn't let go empty. The wrap was terrific, fries with melted cheese were mouthwatering... honestly surprised I couldn't finish them but it was so filling. All the loud parts I thought would be the experience from the outside actually turned into the perfect place for old friends to catch-up and enjoy some laughs. I mean, for a gal that enjoys discoballs as much as myself, who could ask for a more relaxing backdrop in an evening out?!

    What a cool spot!! And what a great time of year to come experience this lively family-friendly spot! The decorations for the holidays are incredible! The staff was very friendly and attentive, and the food was really good! We ordered the jalapeno homies and the the large classic crust Nadene with sides of ranch. The homies were good, definitely on the small side, but flavorful. They are served with a side of bbq sauce which seemed odd but it worked. The Nadene was delicious! The sauce was really good and they put lots of fresh basil on it which is always a bonus! Not all pizza places put a decent amount of basil on and it can make all the difference. The crust was delicious as well, excited to try tavern style next time. Have to say tho that we were not fans of the ranch, but everyone has their own opinion when it comes to the dressing...it just wasn't our favorite. Come here before they take the decorations down! Great spot for the whole family...they even allow dogs Mon-Thurs!!

    I was so impressed with the food here I can't stop thinking about it. We had a reservation for 4 and were pretty late due to game time traffic. They were able to get us back on the list asap and we were seated in no time, despite the house Broncos/Nuggets crowd. Our server warned us the kitchen was behind so we placed our drink and food orders immediately: DRINKS Gin n Tonic Espresso Martini Moscow Mule Pink Flamingo APPETIZERS Truffle fries (10/10) Mozz sticks PIZZA The Tony - mozzarella, prosciutto, spinach, caramelized onion, sun-dried tomatoes, balsamic, goat cheese & cream cheese (genuinely some of the best pizza I've ever had and I worked in high end pizza for 8 years). Food came out surprisingly quick, our server was so kind and the overall feel of the place made the start of our night so so special.

    The perfect vibe is the definition for this place! Just amazing ,have been there manier times... But this holiday time is the fab! Perfect lights ,decor & ambiance makes it's amazing...'the food ,the drinks they were all too good... Guacamole was super yum with pomengrates in it made it taste very different ...loved it... Went there with the family visiting from Seattle,they loved it too.... Highly recommended guys!

    Stopped by Happy Camper and was really impressed. We tried cocktails from the winter menu and they were excellent--especially the peppermint winter cocktail. It was creamy, festive, and perfectly balanced without being overly sweet. We also ordered pizza, which was very good. The crust stood out in particular--well made, flavorful, and cooked just right. Great spot for seasonal cocktails and solid pizza.

    Ask the Community - Happy Camper

    Do you have a time limit for table reservations on football Sundays? We have a large party planning on staying to watch multiple games

    Hi Natalie! We would love to accommodate you and your group! If you could please reach out to denver@happycamper.pizza with your question they will be able to assist you. Thanks!

    Is it ok to bring kids for lunch?

    I think it would be fine. The afternoon we were there, a Saturday, there were plenty of kids there. One thing I noticed too, the music was not blaring so you could actually have a conversation. It did get louder the busier they got but it still… 

    Do you have to reserve a table or is walk-in ok?

    We recommend making a reservation as it's the only way to secure seating, but we do take walk-ins!

    Would this be a fun place for a 21st birthday dinner?

    Yes

    How much are cocktails on average?

    $13

    Do you have a children's area?

    No - there is no designated area for children to play or run around.

    Visiting Denver from Miami Florida with a group of girlfriends - what time on a Saturday is MOST recommended to visit Happy Camper? Brunch early afternoon or closer to the evening?

    Hi Stefani...I am not able to share what the afternoon is like on a Saturday, but I can tell you it is a must to make reservations for a Saturday evening. The place is packed all night and there will be a good mix of people age-wise and gender.… 

    Does it get cold here, I see a lot of outdoor pictures and was wondering how it is during the winter weather?

    Our patio is enclosed and heated during the winter!

    Are pets aka well behaved dogs welcomed?

    We don't allow pets at this time.

    Where is parking?

    We parked along the streets in the neighborhood Happy Camper borders. There were many open spots during the day and scooters are available if you park farther than you'd like to walk.

    Do they have happy hour?

    No happy hour

    I read that there's a 2hr seating time limit on weekends, is this true? If so, how strict are they?

    Julia, Due to the high demand of reservations, we enforce a 2-hour limit to allow as many guests… 

    Is it kid-friendly? Thanks!

    I would say that if you go during the day, it would probably be ok. The problem with Happy Camper is that they are appealing to the 21-29 age category. They blast very loud music that a little kid might not appreciate. Definitely do not take kids… 

    Are kids allowed with of course parental?

    They are to a certain time I believe.

    Do they take reservations?

    Yep. They are on open table.

    Will I be warm outside after dark?

    I would suggest bringing very warm clothes as their heaters aren't everywhere but they do have blankets for sale!

    Does the patio some heating?

    Yes! Warmest place I've eaten in Denver

    What is the maximum number of people allowed at one table?

    Max of 8 people & no pets on patios right now. (website has more details-but they are following… 

    Are dogs allowed in patio/outdoor seating?

    They are allowed in the lower patio area

    Back in Denver for a few days, and Blue Pan was a MUST because of its rare, elite pizza!…read more They rose to the occasion, as this Congress Park location has always been a favorite. Great customer service, Andrew was a terrific server, brief wait mitigated by a solid communication system. Interior loaded with positivity and a family atmosphere. Loved our one-half Brooklyn Bridge and one-half Parma. So very good. Caesar salad also rocked.

    Blue Pan Pizza - Congress Park: Not Recommended…read more Unfortunately, Blue Pan Pizza did not live up to the hype for us. We spent nearly $100, but the food was surprisingly bland and under-seasoned. We started with the meatballs, which tasted as though they might have been frozen. We also ordered the spinach and artichoke dip, but it was runny and lacked flavor. Even the chips couldn't save it, lol. My partner makes a much better version at home--and hers tastes like it was made with love. There really is a difference. For our main course, we ordered a Supreme Detroit-style pizza. Since I'm from New York, it reminded me more of a Sicilian-style pizza, which I usually enjoy. Unfortunately, the cheese was extremely dry against the bread, and even the ranch couldn't help. Also, why do people eat pizza with a fork and knife? Maybe I was raised like a savage in New York, but you're supposed to pick up a slice, fold it, and eat it. The restaurant was extremely crowded, and the overall experience felt more like a process of getting people in, serving them, and getting them out than creating an enjoyable dining experience. The food didn't seem to be prepared with much care or attention; it felt more like an assembly line. We also felt somewhat out of place in the restaurant. That alone wouldn't have been an issue, but combined with the food, crowd, and overall atmosphere, it simply didn't feel like our kind of place. For nearly $100, I expected significantly better food, flavor, and service. Honestly, I've enjoyed pizza from Papa Murphy's, Cicis, Pizza Hut, Papa John's, Sam's Club, Costco, Mondo's, and Marco's more. If you're looking for great pizza, I personally wouldn't recommend Blue Pan Pizza in Congress Park. And if you're going for the ambiance, I wouldn't recommend it for that either. Bottom line: Expensive, under-seasoned, overcrowded, and disappointing. Blue Pan Pizza may be popular, but it definitely wasn't for us. NO garlic power, NO pepper, NO oregano, NO onion powder, NO Italian seasoning, NO NOTHING!!!!!

When I returned home after that trip I was sad because I thought I'd never be back and I might never have Blue Pan again or get to see a show in Red Rocks again. Last week I was lucky enough to return to Denver to again see a show at Red Rocks but I swear I was more excited to go back to Blue Pan. It was literally my first stop when I got into town. I said it before in my review of the other Blue Pan across town but it's quite literally the best pizza I've ever had. My daughter was with me this trip and she's not a fan of thicker pizzas. She ended up eating two pieces herself. You need to go try this place it is just too good to pass up. Now I have to come up with another reason to visit Denver because I don't want this to be the last time I've had Blue Pan pizza.

    Do you ever come into a place that is most likely awesome but it's just having a bad day?…read more I think that was my experience here, which is a bit of a drag since I'll probably never make it back (I live in California which is a bit of a trek) The bad - slow service, attitude from the waitress when we asked for an update on our food, wrong orders and a ton of flies buzzing around. The good - the pizza was really freaking good. Tried both the Parma Italiana and Diavola and both were outstanding (and I don't typically enjoy Detroit style thick pizza). The place has a cool ambiance, good music and plenty of beverage options. So yeah I'm gonna guess I just came here on the wrong day.

    I'm not really into pizza in general. The only restaurant I really enjoy eating at is Crust Pizza…read moreback at home in Houston. However, when I saw the reviews and photos of Marco's pizza, I HAD to try it! Reading back at old reviews, it seems like 2025 was a bad year with terrible customer service, poor quality food, and uncleanliness. It seems like changes have been made since then because our experience was great! We ordered the Carne and Margherita Bufala pizzas to share amongst our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 little boys). The pizzas are pretty big, but since the crust is thin, our family devoured everything with my husband and I feeling still a bit hungry after. I think I could seriously have eaten an entire pizza by myself. This is just to help you decide on how to order; if you're hungry, get a whole pizza for yourself. Both pizzas were really good. I did like the Margherita pizza more than the Carne. The Carne tasted a bit more salty comparatively. Since I love basil, I do wish both pizzas had more of it. Side note: if price is a deterrent, then get the regular Margherita pizza. Maybe it's just me, but I couldn't tell the difference between bufala mozzarella vs regular mozzarella. Perhaps if I ate them side by side to compare then I could. Furthermore, I saw somewhere that they have a Tuesday special where the Margherita pizzas are 50% off! The price of the pizzas are a tad bit high, but I think it's worth it since the restaurant uses fresh and high quality ingredients. This place is definitely worth a try. It may not be a place where you would eat regularly with your family, but it's great for a special occasion or date night. Overall, our family really enjoyed Marco's and appreciated that they were able to bring us a little bit of Italy. (: We accidentally left our plastic bottle of water at our table and when we left, one of the waiters ran out of the restaurant to give it back to us! Honestly, he could have thrown it away, but he didn't. I still couldn't believe that he got our attention to return it to us. I love the thought and integrity of the act. Thank you!

    Marco's purports to offer Neapolitan pizza. I have been to Naples. I have eaten pizza in Naples, at…read moreleast once or twice. The crust, IMHO, is the key to a good Neapolitan pizza. And let me tell you something: Marco's is better than the actual Naples pizza I ate. And it's not even close. Oh, and I now eat Gluten (sometimes pronounced Glutron) Free. When the pizza was delivered to our hotel in downtown Denver, I was skeptical. Was the crust truly Gluten (or Glutron) Free? I checked the order confirmation, and saw the handwritten note on the box claiming the pizza was Gluten / Glutron Free. Then I devoured with abandon. I cannot overstate how incredible the Glutron (or Gluten) Free pizza crust was. Even the Gluten Free model was superior to the actual Naples glutened pizza I ate those many years ago. However, the real test of a Gluten Free pizza is the aftermath. Here I am. 24 Hours later feeling great.

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

    This is a very odd building in an odd location that has been the death of many restaurants over the…read moreyears. Actually, this spot is centrally located, on the edge of Uptown and Five Points, right between City Park and the Central Business District. There's also a nice parking lot. I ordered the Supreme with tomato sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, Italian sausage, red onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and kalamata olives. I found it very average. I collected it promptly at the time specified, but the crust was very soggy and too droopy to pick up a slice. The toppings were OK, but nothing special. The amount of tomato sauce was a little light for my taste and it was very bland. The same with the cheese. I had heard good things about this place, but there is far superior pizza to be had in Denver these days. I was not impressed. The area is not well-lighted and it's kind of creepy at night. So is the building. The staff was friendly and they did bring me my takeout box promptly.

    Did I select Pizza 3.14 because I am a math teacher and have pi memorized to 100+ decimal places?…read more Yes, yes I did. Parking: Woah! Parking in downtown Denver! Amazing! When we arrived, we had the entire restaurant to ourselves. They spent a lot of time painting the inside of the restaurant! We got a medium pizza split with half Supreme and half The Meats. Both of us stopped after our first bite and said ... Woah! That's tasty! Honestly, I just wanted pizza that was better than Domino's. I did not expect tasty pizza that was noteworthy delicious! Two of us ate the entire pizza! Awesome!

    Great food and good service!…read more Street parking so make sure you read the signs. A lot of other restaurants so you might have to go down a few streets. Went here for a friends birthday so we made a reservation. It wasn't that busy when we arrived but it is a small space so never hurts to reserve a table. Our server was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions about portion sizes and what ingredients were in each item. We ordered the garlic bread and salad to share and I got the Cacio e Pepe full size. I didn't eat the salad but my friends really liked it! The garlic bread was AMAZING! Definitely the talk of the night! It's only three slices and it was a little pricy but seemed worth it. The full-size Cacio e Pepe was creamy and delicious! I didn't finish it all intentionally because I wanted to take the rest for lunch tomorrow. I would definitely suggest this one to anyone! At the bottom of the menu, it does say that a 20% service fee is added onto everyone's bill and that this is not a tip. I think it's important to point this out because some people might misinterpret it so definitely take that as you will. Overall, the food was amazing, it was a little pricey, but worth it for a friend's birthday.

We ordered garlic bread, a custom pizza with sausage , ravioli with lamb and pasta with arugula pesto and asparagus all to share. The ravioli came first. It was pretty bland even for my 7 yr old. Lamb was slightly dry and bland. The pizza was average, ok. The other pasta never arrived. We waited over 30 min after we had finished dishes before we just had to cancel the order. They said they only have 10 pans for pasta and they had 41 orders...at that point we just wanted to leave plus the lightest pasta was going to be served last. On top of that, the waiter while I was talking took my drink that was 40% full and I was saving it to go with my meal as I wasn't going to order a second cocktail. That was annoying and felt deliberate to try to get us to order more drinks while we waited.

I am a fan. 10JUL2022 A delicious lunch of Detroit style pizza (chorizo, jalapeños, pineapple) with some 50¢ beers and some regular priced. Excellent service fron Ashley and Crystal. The cool air inside was soothing on this 36°C afternoon. Enjoyed using our lifetime Beer Club memberships. We all survived Covid in 2020-21. 09JUN2018 Watched my 2-year-old grandson shove most of a kid's grilled cheese sandwich into his maw. Oh, and my sando was delicious and the service was excellent. 20MAR2018 A quiet Tuesday afternoon. Enjoyed a delicious Hogshead ale. 26DEC2015 Still crowded. Still has delicious pizza. Still has a terrific beer selection. Still has friendly staff. I am still happy. 05DEC2014 It was crowded. This is why no one goes here anymore. Ordered beer and drank some whilst in vulture mode waiting for 2 seats at the bar. Five minute wait. Ate a delious pizza and drank more beer. Happy. 14NOV2013 "Artisan Sandwich of the week: Turducken - Smoked Turkey, Chicken & Duck Confit, with Cranberry Walnut Stuffing, Bacon, and Sage & Apple Cider Gravy on a House Roll" This is an awesome sandwich. 08SEP2013 Cordon Bleu Chicken sandwich of the day. This is the BEST I have ever had. Very different. Slices of chicken breast with very smokey ham chunks in a dreamy cheese sauce with pickles. Yes, pickles. 16JUN2013 Fathers' Day. Walked in at 1415 and it was packed. Enjoyed great beers (3rd beer free!) and a 9/10 Reuben. Superb mango gazpacho. Drew and his crew make the best food. Great service as usual. Two kids (along with Mom and Dad) sitting at the bar. I hope they drank some beer. Still only 2 blocks from my house. 27FEB2012 What is with the Yelpers voting Hops & Pie as "not good for kids"? 1. All kids like pizza. 2. Some kids like beer. 3. Some kids like soda. I think Hops & Pie is great for kids and I see lots of them there whenever I visit. 08JAN2012 Why isn't it named "Hops and Mac"? As in Macaroni and Cheese and bacon, ham hocks, peas, IPA. Went on a Sunday afternoon (will I be happy when the Donkeys are no longer on TV) to drink beers and eat. Decided to "step outside the box" and ordered "Mac & Cheese" instead of pizza. This is the best M&C I have ever eaten in a restaurant and it will also make me step up my efforts at home. 18DEC2011 I arrive at 1347 which is 13 minutes before they open on a beautiful warm Sunday afternoon in Denver. There are people (shall we refer to them as "alcoholics"?) who are also waiting. When the door is unlocked (3 minutes early), 14 people rush in. At 1406, it is standing room only. What makes this place so popular? Could it be the Avery Brewing tasting flight? Rumpkin beer. Could it be the slice of the day: Cheeseburger? Could it be the excellent bartender service? Could it be the perfect bar atmosphere? Well, I won't tell. You need to visit for yourself. 05OCT2011 This time, we ate there. Excellent pizza. Very good service. 13SEP2011 making progress Free Wi-Fi. Always good. 31AUG2011 Walked the 2 blocks from my house and picked up an Artisan Pizza. Excellent. Super thin crust. Bursting with flavor. $2 craft beer in cans (6 to chose from) on Wednesdays. I really need to return and just work my way thru the huge beer selection.
