This place really has gone downhill... sorry guys..... price for what you get is a bit steep. The ambiance is pretty cold. Wish the gas fireplace was on once and a while when we go there. Love the truth information by the order counter though! God is good! We will probably be back if we want a normal pizza and have $30 to throw out there. read more

The Pizza here is amazing. I was introduced to this place 2 years ago on a road trip to the beach. I often will stop in for pizza to go I. My drive between Washington and Oregon. I highly recommend the Garlic Chicken Pizza! Sooooo yummy. Restaurant is huge and accommodating to large groups with a game room for kids of all ages. Everything is clean and tidy. Counter and kitchen staff are courteous and friendly. read more

Their sweet and spicy pizza is so good! I've gotten my family to order it too! I like their veggie pizza, plain pepperoni and even a plain cheese. This pizza has never disappointed me! read more

This place used to be absolutely amazing, to the point we ordered weekly and would come and play the arcade games while we wait. It was super convenient because I'm allergic to dairy and their gluten free crust used to be dairy free. Today after ordering after we made the drive down we get a call saying they changed their crust and their gluten free crust now has cheese in it. What a silly thing to change. Unfortunately we will no longer be customers. Hopefully they post an update so future customers don't have unexpected issues. read more

Excellent pizza ! The only issue is when they are busy they are very busy. Took over an hour for the pie ,but worth it.

Never had better pizza! Everything was great from the crust to the toppings. I only wish there was one closer to where we live.

Restaurant is an old school pizza joint. Friendly young kids take your order and make the most delicious pizza! I always have them add fresh tomatoes to my pizza! One of our favorite stops when going to Seattle. read more

Great pizza off of exit 49 Castle Rock. Fresh ingredients and great crust. Pretty busy so call ahead

This is the best pizza bar none in all of Washington state and I may say in all of the pacific coast

Been waiting over an hour for pizza. Costs $80 for two medium pizzas and they said"we only have 4 employees today. It's like this every time I come here read more

Excellent pizza! Loved the little cupping pepperoni. And the Hawaiian pizza was on point. Nice thin, crispy crust and just enough sauce and cheese. A definite local fav! read more

First of all you can't get a pizza in there for less than 50 bucks, the place will be empty but it still takes them an hour to cook your pizza. No matter what you say about the crust, whether you want it thick or not cooked as long, anything no matter what it comes olongurnt thin crust pizza. I used to work there about 20 years ago and it has gone downhill since then. It's a shame it was a good place to eat, but I will never be going back. read more

Great place to stop with the grandkids on our way home from camping. They loved playing the games while waiting for pizza, plus the pizza was very good and quick to arrive. read more

I absolutely love the food, it's fantastic, but anytime I order over the phone and am told a time it'll be ready, it hasn't even been put in the oven by the time I get there. Honestly though it's still absolutely worth it! The food is great and the people who work there are extremely kind. Absolutely recommend checking the place out if you haven't! read more

I purchased med combination pizza from Castle Rock Saturday 14th. I could have eaten the cardboard takeout box,and had a better meal, than what I received as a pizza . The crust as received was like 2 week old bread,commercial horrid crust, not enough sauce to say there was any.loaded with plain black olives,an peperoni. A total waste for $30.00 plus dollars. I've lived an bought their pizza's here in Castle Rock for 50 years, but will never be a return customer ever. Don't waste your money or time with Papa Pete's Pizza J C read more

Let me start with the pizza is delicious! There is no need to order extra cheese and tons of toppings. So good, the best I've had in many years. We were one of two tables, but the wait was going to be 30 minutes. Hmmm? Well, they were very busy, but everyone else was getting their pizzas to go. I guess they wanted their pizza with a beer or glass of wine. There is no bar. Maybe they like metal utensils and a real plate. They only have paper plates and plastic utensils. Maybe they were hoping to watch some sports. There are no TVs, but they do have questionable music and a big game room. Great place for kids, families or large groups. Again, their pizza is top notch and delicious! read more

Tried to call in an order for 4 pizzas for a total of $160. Was told if I order 4 pizza they won't make them until I pay in store. Mind you they can't take payment over the phone. It's 2025 who doesn't take payments over the phone or let you order online. So anyway I just ordered 3 pizzas so I wouldn't have to wait in the restaurant for 30 minutes for my pizza. Than my son decided he was going to order one. So I drove there asked for both of our orders. Paid for both of them. $160. Then the manager proceeds to come out and scold me for putting in two separate orders. Was told there will be restrictions put on both of our accounts that all future orders will have to be paid for before the make the pizzas. That is absolutely ridiculous to be scolded after just giving them $160 for my order. Also ordered the breadsticks. They were store bought breadsticks just like you get from Olive Garden except they had zero flavor. I like the pizza but will never set foot in the place again. Especially after getting scolded like I was a little kid for spending my hard earned money in thier place of business. NEVER AGAIN. read more

Fabulous Pizza. Great service very clean restaurant!! Highly recommended. Freshest of ingredients make for a rich flavored pizza. read more

Stop by for a quick bite around 12:45. Place is completely empty but for a couple of tables. After placing our order we were told it would be 35-40 minutes for pizza. WHY ?? I had to ask Reason #1 something to do with ovens ??? Reason #2 short staffed Cancelled order and walked over to subway. We'll go there again if we have a couple hours for lunchtime but not if we're in a hurry!! read more

I've been going to this place for years and think it has been the best pizza I've ever tasted. Last night I ordered a medium pizza and had them put extra mushrooms which was about one whole mushroom sliced and the pizza was tasteless. I feel like the pizza sauce wasn't there and the flavor wasn't there. Of course we all have our bad days so I will give it one more shot. At the tune of $37 for a medium pizza it was very disappointing.. read more

Here is a picture of a pizza with "melted cheddar" that costs $36. I was so disappointed and the girl at the counter told me I needed to ask for cheese to be melted lol. I would skip this place. They also stopped serving beer read more

3 stars for customer service and pizza was great but not worth 27$ The pizza is perfectly fine. There's nothing wrong with the quality as you probably can see... I mean I did when I opened the box. The crust is perfectly toasted. It does have extra cheese and pepperoni. It just does not have the tasteful worthiness of a $27 pizza... i would have given a 5 star review had we received a $27 pizza. Overall, we did enjoy the pizza ! read more

This is a hard one - because pizza is a very personal thing. I will try to describe it here as well as why they don't earn a 4th and 5th star. The restaurant is nice. It's always clean. There is plenty of parking and space to spread out inside. You order by phone or at the counter. Here is the loss of the 5th star: their staff needs better customer service training. I have never, ever had great customer service here. Yes - it's adequate. But I never walk away saying "boy were they nice". The pizza is a pretty specific type. It's that thin, cornmeal, crispy crust with toppings all the way to the edge. I love it. I think their sauce is tasty. Their cheese could be improved a bit, but their other toppings are fresh and good. If you don't like thin, crispy crust, you won't like this pizza. Now, the loss of the 4th star: it's WAY too expensive. This pizza is overpriced for what it is. Still, it is quite tasty. There is just room for improvement. read more

Great pizza with gluten free options!! Great employees relaxed and fun atmosphere. Delivery to our home option!!!

We picked up pizza while vising for the weekend and even though the restaurant was busy on a Saturday night, we got our pizza in the promised 30 minutes and it was one of the best we've ever eaten. The crust was somehow soft on the top and crispy on the bottom, the pepperonis perfectly seasoned, the cheese melted but not greasy. I'm going to be dreaming about this pizza until the next time we go back! read more

Papa Pete's Pizza - Literally the most no -helpful people I've met - Pizza Near Me - Castle Rock, Washington

The best pizza hands down ! Prices are good for our economy and lots of toppings! Friendly staff. Always fresh.

The pizza isn't bad but the prices keep going up and up to the point that it isn't worth the money. We have had a few mixups with our last few orders that were probably due to staffing. There is pizza close by that is just as good, if not better, and it won't cost near as much. This has always been the place to go but the experience makes the food repulsive. I don't think they will be in business much longer if the price hikes continue. Lots of games for the kids and makes for a great place for a birthday party. The ambiance isn't worth the cost. read more

Very good. Very popular with the locals! One type of crust, but definitely delicious.

Service was slow, 7 people inside and several minutes before anyone acknowledged I was there. Finally , employee of month, come up front and asks how I was. Food was done but not hot. I've had better pizza's. read more

A group (7) of us stopped in here after a day of hiking Helens. Free parking can be found in the parking lot. Discover is an accepted form of payment. Orders are placed and picked up at the counter. Papa Pete's offer zero waiter service and zero smiles. Indoors is probably a heaven for the local residents with kids. The back area offers a large play room of sorts. Prices seemed a bit steep to me. Beer and wine are available (limit 2 per person). I ordered a large pitcher of Coors Light for $12.05. For starters, my wife and I shared a Dinner Salad for $5.50: lettuce, Parmesan cheese, tomato slices, black olive, salami and pepperoni. I wasn't impressed that our salad was served on a paper plate and that I was given a plastic fork to eat it with. The salad was tasty. My wife ordered a mini/personal sized Sausage Pizza for $8.99. She enjoyed her choice. I ordered a mini/personal sized Vegetarian Pizza for $10.45: black olives, mushrooms, onions, green peppers and tomatoes. I too enjoyed my pizza choice. Overall, Papa Pete's is a good place to dine at if you have little ones. If we're in town again, I will pick-up my order and eat it at our lodging rather than in the restaurant. read more

Pizza was great! Loaded with toppings. I also ordered bread sticks. Only got 4 small sticks for $6. Shame on me for not asking what I was getting. Then, they charged me $.50 for a pizza box without disclosing the added fee. These people can run their businesses however they like, but not disclosing fees is completely wrong. Sad that a small undisclosed fee will keep me from coming back. read more

It's been a must do every time I drive south on I-5. For more than 25 years now. I always look forward to it and it hasn't changed at all, very consistent. I highly recommend the pepperoni and black olive. read more

Stumbled upon this place on accident. It was almost 9pm and we were starving! We got tired of eating burgers during our road trip so when we saw this place off the freeway we decided to try it. We walked in thinking they close at 930 but one the employees told us they close at 9, they close later in the summer. We were already there and the girl was very nice and told us they can still take our order. We ended up getting a small bbq chicken pizza. The pizza was yummy! And I really appreciated them taking our order when they were already closed. This place is huge and I love that you can watch them make pizza outside the parking lot. *a little pricey for pizza - over $16 for a small bbq chicken but so yummy and I love thin crust pizza... read more

The absolute worst customer service I have had in years. We started coming here when I was 5 years old. I and my family and friends have watched the steady decline of service and yet the prices have skyrocketed. So sad to watch a once great family business go to absolute crap. I truly wish there where negative stars! I was going to order my family pizza, and I know to order ahead over the phone because of it being a weekend. I order two extra large pizzas. Both over $35 a piece. So with tax and the extra charge for using a debit card (news flash papa Pete, those tiny charges on a business scale are a write off on your business taxes. You don't even pay them. Learn how to do booking!) They tell me over the phone that wit will be an hour. OK I guess I can wait that long. So I tell them that's fine, but I need it to be ready to walk out the door when I get there. She tells me no problem. I get there about an hour and fifteen after I order. There is a line out the first set of doors to order. I know this because I bypassed all of them when I had to use the facilities prior to paying for and picking up my food. I see there is an ordering line that was long and previously mentioned. Next to that line says pickup and drinks with a register. So I go to the counter in front of drinks and pick up and wait. And wait and wait! Till some person comes up to take and fill someones, behind me, order for drinks. And after he's done with them I ask if I can pay and get my order. He tells me I'll have to get in line with the people ordering and pay first. So I do as I was instructed. It took more than twenty minutes just to get up to Pay for my food. The. I was asked to go and wait some more for my actual order. I watch four other orders be picked up. Remember I'm into this order now almost an hour and forty minutes. I finally get my food and they have screwed up the order. The young man wants me to wait and talk to his manager. So without raising my voice, I relay to him that I will not wait any longer to talk or do anything else with that establishment ever again. Absolutely ridiculous behavior and customer NON service! Stay away any weekend or holiday and any other day that starts with a Y. Go 10 minutes down the road to Longview and BRUNOS. 500 percent better pizza and service. read more

While visiting Castle Rock last week we ended up having pizza from here twice. My husband and his step-sister hollered "Taco Pizza" and did a dance of joy in anticipation before we picked it up. They proclaimed to the heavens that this was indeed the best pizza in the entire world , that no other taco pizza on earth could ever come close to this pizza and I have been hearing this for 22 years. Every time the words Taco pizza is mentioned or on a menu I hear the story of how "mom got us hooked on taco pizza, it is SO good!!" - thanks Judy ~heavy sarcasm~ I went in with an open mind, but ordered a small cheese pizza for myself because I am not a taco pizza fan because it has meat on it. Now let me say that the Family size pizza is HUGE they do cut it in too many slices because the size of the slice will not support the toppings and its almost impossible to keep off the floor. I was scared to death they were going to get some on the carpet and she would kill them. The "best taco pizza in the world" is on a cracker thin crust with ground beef that was cold, a mound of shredded lettuce and an overkill amount of cold shredded orange cheese, and sliced tomatoes on top. There may have been a small amount of sauce on the crust but I could not tell for sure. This "fantastic pizza" that made them dance was $39 I will close by saying" Pizza crust :75 cents, ground beef topping: $2.50, bag of shredded lettuce: $1.79; Bag of shredded cheese: $2.50; sliced tomato: $1.80 Paying $39 dollars twice to see my husband do a happy dance: PRICELESS. The small cheese pizza was skimpy and barely had any cheese at all on it or anything more than a smear of sauce and it was $11 mmmm... NO not getting my money again. read more

The beef taco pizza is absolutely, hands-down, the best pizza I have ever experienced on this planet in all of my 55 years. I would drive any amount of distance to have that pizza, and I have! Currently I am from Tennessee and I am visiting this area; from way north in Washington, I'm so excited to be having another one tonight!!! And on this holiday, the Fourth of July, you guys just rock! Thank you! read more
