We reserved a few tables for a large family event. The staff were extremely helpful and made sure we had the space we needed. There are lots of different pizza options. We tried several different kinds and they were all really good. The crust was good and held all the great toppings. read more

Was camping up in Stanley this past Fourth of July weekend. And headed into town for the parade and street fair. Decided to order pizza for a large group online with a pick up time of 8 PM. When I arrive to pick up the pizza there was a line out the door and around the block for people waiting to order. They were running about 10 minutes behind, which was to be expected with the amount of people ordering. They let me know I could wait outside in the picnic area and the staff was so kind and brought all six of our pizzas plus plates and napkins out to us. Even though this was a to go order. We received the same service we would have if we dined inside. The pizza was hands-down delicious. It was lovely to enjoy outside with live music during the street dance. 6 pizza's fed 16 people and we even took a whole pizza back to camp for lunch the next day. The price was more than fair. $163 including a tip. We will definitely hit this place up when we're in town again. Pizza just hits different in the mountains. read more

This place is a must. Some of the best pizza I've ever had. Our 2 pizzas came out pretty quick and were delicious. Waited maybe 15 minutes with them being busy but you can enjoy a cold beer while you wait. I recommend the Notorious P.I.G and the Texan!! read more

Excellent pizza in the shadow of the Sawtooth Mountains...highly recommended You won't go wrong stopping here!

This is the best pizza in Idaho! And their sandwiches are the bomb. I like the thin crust pizza - usually get the Sawtooth Special or the Surfer. The staff is amazing and friendly. Do not miss this place if you visit Stanley! read more

Stopped at Papa Brunee's for a midafternoon snack with my group of friends. We ordered 2 large pizzas (Sawtooth Special & Howlly) and an order of wings. The pizzas are hearty, with thick crust and loaded toppings. There is a menu with several options to choose from, or you can even make your own. If you're not in the mood for pizza, they have calzones, wraps, subs, salads and appetizers. While you're here, add wings to your order, you won't be disappointed. Big, juicy and flavor packed, need I say more? The staff works hard to make sure your food comes out in a timely manner. If you're looking for a quick bite or to hang out, this is the spot to pick. Have a pup with you? No worries, there is an outdoor patio & grassy area for your furry friends to join! read more

Absolutely delicious. All Pizza and appetizers are really good. Friendly staff too and they're fast.

Stanley, Idaho is one of my all-time favorite places to visit. I lived there at one point. The Sawtooth Mountains can be seen from the restaurant. The rustic atmosphere fits perfectly with this small mountain town. You order up at the register and food is brought to your table. I've had pizza and calzones. Both are delicious, but I think I had the best calzone of my life this summer at Papa Brunee's. You can customize! I did a cheese, ricotta and pesto calzone. It was SO good! It was not too overloaded with cheese and the perfect size for lunch. If you visit the beauty of Stanley, Idaho make sure and visit this spot. Don't forget to go out to Redfish Lake too! read more

I usually do not write reviews but I feel inclined to share my experience. We dined here after a long day of hiking after reading numerous reviews of how good the pizza was, many citing "the best in Idaho". Unfortunately this was not our experience. The service was friendly and the toppings were generous; however, the crust was extremely disappointing and resembled frozen pizza. I hope my experience was just a bad batch of dough, but I'm not convinced. read more

Let's keep it real folks - in the middle of almost nowhere you are not getting gourmet anything. But for what this place is - it's five stars. Large facility - clean. Service was friendly and prompt. Order at the counter and they bring out your food. We way over-ordered and they happily gave us a box for leftovers. Meatball appetizer was good, the bread was clearly slice and bake but the meatballs themselves looked and tasted homemade (basic red sauce). Very decent portion size. Pizza - ordered a Margherita and asked to substitute olive oil for the red sauce. It was very fresh and delicious. We ate the leftover slices cold the next day and had no complaints. read more

Stopped by for lunch mid-week in late September. A small, but steady influx of hungry customers made their way into Papa Brunee's. Order at the counter. Bottled drinks are in the cooler, or you can have a fountain drink. Dippin Dots are in the freezer. We had a large pepperoni and cheese pizza and a personal size Sawtooth Special. Enjoyed it very much. Great to have a tasty pizza when you are in such a rural place. No frills, just a chill spot to munch on a tasty pie. read more

After an 8 mile strenuous hike, this pizza brought me life. We've been eating food we cooked in our RV for a while now, but it just wasn't going to cut it after today's hike. Covid-19: you can order and pay over the phone. You have to go inside to sign the receipt. I didn't see anyone wearing masks inside. Our pizza wasn't quite ready and they brought it out to the car for us after I signed the receipt. We got 3 medium pizzas: Blue Apple, Pepp-E-Due, and Notorious P.I.G. We also got some firesticks. This was for 3 people and it was entirely too much food. I guess hiking all day will make you overestimate. We finished all of the firesticks and half of the pizza. Who doesn't love leftover cold pizza though? I loved both the Blue Apple and the Pepp-E-Due. They both had unique toppings and were delicious. The Notorious P.I.G was good, but it was pretty much just a meat lovers pizza, so nothing too exciting. I loved their crust. We got regular and it had a good crunch to it on the outside and a good flavor. The firesticks were good. They were like an upgraded cheesey bread. They had a little kick but weren't that spicy. I loved the cream cheese addition. This is definitely the best pizza I've had in such a small town and way better than I would expect to find. Check it out! read more

Considering Stanley has a population of 63 people, one would not expect it to have a great pizza restaurant but believe me when I tell you--they do! Papa Brunee's is great pizza. If you're hiking around the Stanley area, you should absolutely try it after a long trek. My wife and I shared several of their pizzas after hiking 10 miles to Goat Lake while fasting the entire day. It was exactly what we needed to recharge. We tried... Firesticks Notorious P.I.G. Pepp-e-due Blue Apple My favorite was the Blue Apple but everything we tried was great--certainly better than I expected it to be! read more

Our favorite pizza by far. Always consistent. Staff is always friendly and helpful Just wish they were open year around. read more

This place has great pizza and even better calzone. We split a calzone with prosciutto and arugula--a large size fed two of us generously. The crust was perfect--crisp and chewy. And if you've been missing a glass of plain brewed unsweetened ice tea, you are in luck. They have it here. My large house salad was nothing to brag about--I would skip it next time. Not much love or creativity went into that plate of lettuce. But absolutely go for the pizza/calzone. read more

I like pizza, but there aren't many pizza places that I actually want to go to. It's a comfortable, easy thing to eat in most cases. I look forward to getting pizza and wings from Papa Brunee's all year long. The wings are a perfect level of spicy so anyone can enjoy them. We haven't found a pizza that wasn't great yet. Not only won't you regret eating here, you'll love that you did. read more

We came here for a white water rafting trip and was craving some pizza. This place is soo good. I had a thin crust sawtooth special. It was amazing! The sauce was tasty and the thin crust had the perfect crisp. The staff is great very friendly. Whether you live in town or are just visiting I highly recommend this restaurant to feed your pizza craving! read more

I wanted to love this place because some photos looked great but patio seating is limited and food was cold and bland. Prices are very nice and ideal for Stanley but just wasn't what I was expecting unfortunately. Has a fast food vibe. Parents got a pizza that was okay too but wasn't amazing. Good for something affordable, quick and easy. read more

We wanted to find a good dinner spot for after Redfish and the night before hiking Sawtooth Lake. I went in with my wife and 2 kids. We sat outside on the beautiful patio area. I was impressed with the options available on the menu. They were accommodating in doing some half/half options so we could try out different flavors. They even made a mistake and without saying anything simply made it right by bringing us an extra pizza with no charge. The pizza was very high quality from the dough to the toppings. They provided us with all the ranch we needed to dip the pizza in and enjoyed each one of the options. Thanks Papa Brunees! read more

Papa brunees is a local pizza joint that offers an array of pizza and pizza like options! It is based in one the iconic Wild West looking buildings in Stanley and gives one of those local joint kinds of feelings to your eating establishment. The value of their entrees are great, whereas their appetizers are a little pricey for their cost. They provide boxes to go, to which you might have to use with the portions! Overall I give it a 5 out of 5. For a rural pizza joint in a popular recreational area, this restaurant is a great value and great taste especially if you have been backpacking lately! read more

I went here and got the Weekly pizza of the week special. The pizza was really good. And our server was great. But... The pizza was hot when it came out of the oven . Aand it burned the roof of my mouth a little when I eat it right away. The pizza was "the dirty Hawaiian". A Hawaiian pizza with Prosciutto and drizzled hot honey added. It was delicious although I thought the name was a little inappropriate and it made my hands sticky from the delicious hot hunny. I asked for the manager to complain about my burned mouth and my sticky fingers. A guy name "Josh" came out of the back and said he didn't know what to say. I asked for a free beer to stop the burn and to wash off my hands and he refused . I'll definitely come back and just hope " Josh" isn't working. I'll also bring latex gloves to eat my pizza. read more

We will come back to Stanley just to taste this world class sour dough again. It's worth the 6 hour drive from salt lake. Papa Brunee's has mind boggling good hand made dough and sweet, delectable tomato sauce. Their pizzas are made with incredibly fresh, delicious ingredients applied generously and liberally. Their pizzas are creative, one of a kind. The DOUGH the DOUGH the DOUGH. It's a worth a trip. It's soooo good. For whatever reason, Stanley, Idaho is a microcosm of culinary excellence. End of this establishment plays a big role in that. This is some of the best pizza we've ever had and we are from the north east of the US, we have the likes of Haven pizza at our fingertips. This pizza was actually as good as any pizza we've had a New Haven. It had everything going for it - crispy, doughy, light, right amount of sauce and cheese, novelty. Even their caeser was excellent. They had a waitress from Romania who was absolutely busting her ass and I know they are trying to hire. She did an incredible job keeping the house, satisfied, and fed. The service was incredible considering that there was really only one food runner, and a single waitress and cashier. We will be thinking about it for a long time.. it was that good. Also, the owner is clearly a hockey bro and appreciates professional hockey. We are Big hockey fans and enjoyed the playful sportsbar like atmosphere. read more

Soooo good! The PIG calzone and pizza was so tasty we had to go back twice. Wings good and meatball appetizer was good too.

I have visited once with the family. The pizza was very good, locals and staff were friendly. We ordered the Philly steak sandwich, caesar salad, sawtooth special, and meatball sub. The sub was insanely good. This is a must-have if you're in the area. read more

Got a to go chicken wrap which was decent. This place is only open about 3 months a year in the summer and during some spring/fall weeks they are only open 3 days a week on the weekend. Check before you go. Their appetizer cheese poppers are also really good with ranch dressing. Service was quick and a nice family atmosphere. read more

thanks for the wonderful pizza. we ordered enough pizza for 50 people and everyone loved it! the staff were outstanding thank you again!

Really nice wings sawtooth pizza. Came here on a day trip from Ketchum. Good gluten-free options too.

Ahh I love this place! I was super hungry after a long trek in the mountains and needed some food that was not only feeling but that could satisfy my tastebuds. The night prior I had been to the Mountain Village Restaurant across to the street and had the saddest nachos...anyway, moving on... After staring at the menu for a fat 20 minute I finally decided to order the taco pizza. My decision was largely based on how many topping were on the pizza. I only waited about 15 minutes before I was carrying my soon to be delicious dinner to the cabin I was stayed at. The pizza was so darn good I ate half of it the first night. The toppings were so fresh and there was so much! I did have to use a fork half the time only because the toppings kept falling off it was piled on so much. Alternating bites dipped in sour cream, salsa and both enhanced the taste. I enjoyed every single bite I had. It also made an excellent dinner the second night. It almost tasted better reheated. If you do that I would recommend taking the cold toppings off and adding them back on after you've reheated your slice, unless you like hot lettuce. I'm so coming back here to try another pizza in the near future! Highly highly highly recommend Papa Brunee's! read more

There were literally only two places for dinner in this special little town, and we ate at the other one for lunch! So we had to try it. The pizza was yummy, so was the salad. They had wine and Yellowstone root beer for my son, who hadn't had it since we were last in Jackson Hole about 8 years ago. The service was friendly and the prices were reasonable for the middle of nowhere! read more
