Restaurant was out of appetizers and even fries. The place was dirty as well. Pizza was ok but too expensive. Staff was friendly however. read more

Next time you're in Golden, make a stop at Backcountry Pizza for their spicy, delicious wings and their pizza! The service is usually quick- both times I've eaten here, our order has taken less than 25 minutes. There is optional outdoor seating and you can have your dog with, which I appreciate when traveling with my little companion. The ambiance is busy but not loud. read more

Solid stop after a day of exploring - offers a cozy, laid-back atmosphere perfect for winding down after a mountain adventure. We stopped in after a long day of exploring, and the pizza definitely delivered on comfort. The crust had a nice chew with a subtle crisp around the edges, and the cheese--oh, there was plenty of it. Gooey, melty, and indulgent, it blanketed every bite. The flavor was solid and satisfying, though nothing particularly groundbreaking in terms of creativity or seasoning. It's more of a classic, crowd-pleasing style than a culinary twist. Prices were a bit steep for what you get, but the portions were generous and it totally hit the spot. Not the most inventive pie out there, but a great option when you're craving something warm, cheesy, and filling in a chill mountain setting read more

Friendly staff. Pizza was good, nice rope style crust. Pizza price is a little higher than normal so be prepared for that. Retro alternative music in the background, nice "hangout" style. read more

Ohhhh Backcountry, we will always love you after a day in the mountain. Memories of slices and beer after every visit to Eldora. You don't come here for the long wait, you come here for the good local vibe and tasty slices. read more

Backcountry Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Nederland, Colorado

Better than expected. Good choices of on-tap beers. Pizza was ok with good selections.

I came in with Two friends on a busy Saturday (6 July 24) on an unexpected trip to help SAR in the nearby Brainard Lake area... anyway, we stumbled in for beers to relax from a stressful day and we all tried the wings. The food was amazing. Service was very polite even when we changed our order 2x and we weren't really ready when we got to the register so I'm sure that was frustrating to the bartender but he never let on and the beers were poured immediately with maybe 15 minutes wait for wings... the best damn wings yall!! I can't comment on anything else but the cute fells working every angle of the place and amazing blue cheese and veggies too! I want to drive 100 miles back to Ned just for these wings Thanks for not treating us like tourists... living in Buena Vista, I know how much the 4th weekend was overwhelming for many small businesses. You guys handled it with grace from my perspective. read more

Backcountry Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Nederland, Colorado

I am kind of sad to say, supposedly this place recently sold. It's been a staple in Ned for over 20 yrs, and been a home to many of Ned's local sports watching crowd. Always a good beer selection. Food is decent and fairly consistent. Like most, they have struggled with staffing. Once in a while -- a not so good employee emerges, but typically they're all pretty great. If they are indeed closing shop, I hope they move to another location in Ned. I am going to miss my boots of Hofbräu watching the sun set and so are a lot of other people. :-) read more

Meh. I've had better pizza in cleaner places. I didn't even save the 1/2 pizza I had leftover.

Almost every time after skiing at eldora, my mom would bring me here and I would eat the pepperoni pizza with a small lemonade, and beg my mom to give me a quarter for the old pinball machine. One of the best parts of my childhood. read more

I miss the burgers. Wings are great, but I prefer them with light sauce. Pretty solid selection of beer. This place is kind of a staple in Ned. Similar to "Island Time," when it's busy with tourists, expect to wait. If you're in a hurry, ask the wait time before you place an order. Order food at the bar (to the side), leave the kitchen alone. There are other options in town but they're expensive, if you want a good time and hang out with locals, you can't beat it. The atmosphere changes when it gets dark. During the day it's family friendly. Pizza is pretty solid. The one-star reviews are pretty comical. If you are expecting the same experience as in Boulder, BCP is the wrong place for you. read more

Backcountry Pizza - Bar tv. - Pizza Near Me - Nederland, Colorado

Literally writing a review for this place as i've been sitting here for an hour waiting for my food. It's a Saturday, they should probably have more staff working. I used to come here when i was young and since then it has very much gone down hill. Haven't even gotten my food but we are immediately getting a to go box and are leaving. The restraint is dirty, there's food on the floor, guy handing out orders was definitely high on something that wasn't weed. Wouldn't spend the money here. read more

Backcountry Pizza - No napkins, no condiments - Pizza Near Me - Nederland, Colorado

Service is terrible and food is absolutely disgusting. Ordered a few individual slices of pizza and it appeared to be several days old and it was burnt. I wouldn't even bother trying again. Absolutely terrible. Place isn't very sanitary either. read more

The best wings. FR also the pizza is the best 'Colorado Style' pizza (roped crust) available

Pizza was not very good. The cook looked like he hadn't taken a shower in a couple days and was high, not on weed... my buddies pizza was clearly an old reheated slice that was pretty overdone. When he mentioned it to the bar tender/host he loudly told him " look man, you can say whatever you want to say" but then just walked over to the bar and made another comment under his breath. My slices were fresher but still not very good. Needless to say this place sucks. And is over priced. read more

A solid local spot. Nice beer selection and good pies. Sandwiches are also available, though I usually come here for the pizza. Bar service has always been good, food speed and service can be spotty depending how busy things are as their kitchen isn't very big and things tend to break. A good place to have in town. I'm glad for it. read more

We ordered our pizzas to eat downstairs at Very Nice Brewing, but Backcountry Pizza shared a cool vibe and looked like they had a big tap list (& a Ms. PacMan machine!) so need to return and take a seat. Had the 12" Nediterranean pizza, which is stellar (feta, olives, etc) and yummy crust. Friendly service -- we ordered, went downstairs, and returned to pick up 30 minutes later. Crosscut Pizzeria is great, but if you want to avoid the wait, this is an excellent alternative. read more

Backcountry Pizza - Neditterranean pizza 12" - Pizza Near Me - Nederland, Colorado

Pizza is gross over cooked and burnt. Owner or manager seems rude. Would not do anything to address the issue. Weak human

I should have gone through reviews and gone to crosscut pizzeria and tap house. It was less than 1/2 mile away and rated 4.5 stars with more reviews. Trust your fellow yelpers!!! Crap service, decent pizza. I wish we read the reviews before spending any money here. You really do have to be the grunge type or expect to get ignored. My sister ordered her pizza and sandwich at 12:45 and paid. My husband ordered our slices after her. At about 1:10 she got her sandwich, we then got our slices and we were still waiting on the pizza. At 1:20 she went to the counter to ask when the pizza might be coming (because her daughter was hungry) and the guy interrupted her by saying he'll let her know when it's ready and walked away. She didn't hear him the first time (because he turned around partway through his response) so she asked again 5 minutes later to which he interrupted and replied even louder that he would let her know when it's ready. When the pizza was brought at 1:30 he dropped it off without saying a word. I wish I had read the reviews. No one should pay money to be treated like that read more

Very long wait. Great option to have make to order pizza slices, but this doesn't work guys. You need to tell your customers that takes about an hour. 1 slice with picked toppings - 56 minutes. Not a quick place to have lunch. Sorry read more

First time in, on a recommendation. Pizza was excellent. The bartenders are fun, friendly and cool guys. Definitely recommend!

Service is laughably bad. If you want to order a pizza by phone, you'll be lucky if they answer the phone at all. They act like customers are just an annoyance. Pizza was very good up until recently. Now it's different and terrible. Whoever owns this dive should just give up and sell to someone that cares. read more

I really want to like this place, but just can't . Not long ago it was a pizza place with great service, great beer, and etible pizza - so just enjoy. Then the pizza/food got so bad - it just wasn't worth it. Charlie started taking control, and the pizza and service was returning to the past, and really awesome to go there. Recently it went back to "well they still have good beer and a good bar". My last visit - holy f, this place really sucks. Please, please with just f-ing close, because you s read more

Seems there's often something wrong with the kitchen (staff) so call ahead and make sure they're serving the thing you want. Super beer selection. Charlie's a great bartender. read more

I wish I could give the food a 5 outta 5 but the service a 2 outta 5. LET IT BE KNOWN Backcuntry has hired a new cashier/bartender as of October 10th 2020. THAT being said, the service has GREATLY improved. I still must rate 2 outta 5 because of the absolutely enraging experiences I've had here. Most times I call to place a to-go order, the phone is literally hanging off the line, and I get a busy signal. To clarify, I've been to Backcuntry's bar after an attempted phone order to try and order in-person, but they do actually take the phone off the hook to avoid phone orders after 6 pm. Of course, Backcuntry closes at 7pm now (I really wish they would stay open later but what can I do) so you must be nimble, swift and prudent when ordering. THEY WILL REFUSE ORDERS WITHIN AN HOUR OF CLOSING, to a claimed "really high volume of orders". So if you order before 6pm you SHOULD be okay. I often order my Damn Good wings at 3 or 4 to ensure I actually get the order, only to eat at 8 or 9 pm. The wings surprisingly cook well in the microwave. The place is usually packed with locals, who the server/bartender seem to notice and serve first. Don't expect to "just pop by for a quick beer". The locals always seem to have some lengthy (and mostly insignificant) gossip to exchange with the bartender. Although I have not seen this with the newer and more efficient bartender, but be prepared to stand in a long line (or just a long wait) regardless. On to the food, it's absolutely fabulous. Best wings in Nederland hands down. Pizza's not bad either, and very affordable compared to Cross-Cut. the beer selection is exactly what you would expect in Nederland, which is glorious and diverse. Basically the only, but very important downside to Backcuntry is the inconsistent, spotty service. Even if you're fiending for some excellent wings, they're never guaranteed. I recommend Backcuntry, but make damn sure you're ahead of the "rush" which in my opinion, is just a regular rate of orders, not an actual rush as experienced by many restaurants in Boulder. The owner really needs to address the staff issues. Maybe hire one or two more servers/bartenders? I find myself constantly waiting for the bartender to take people's drink order's who have just sat down, as I (who has been waiting in line for sometimes upwards of 10 to 15 minutes to simply pick up an order) wait for the bartender to finally ask if I have been helped. If I owned a small-town restaurant in the time of COVID-19, I would make damn sure that there is at least one employee working specifically the pick-up line, especially during these so-called (largely employee caused) lines, which are usually un-managed mobs! Overall, if you can manage to visit Backcuntry at a time where the staff isn't busy, you can USUALLY count on an excellent dining and drinking experience, but if there's more than about 10 people in the restaurant when you enter, I'd recommend turning around and trying Busey Brews or even the local supermarket. Backcuntry 4 outta 10!!! read more

Updating my review after our 6th attempt (or maybe 7th since COVID-19 restrictions) to grab what used to be a quick, fun beer and a snack was squashed, once again during posted open hours, with the door open and "open" sign lit up. Our familiar bartender greeted us genially to then promptly announce they had no food to sell and were closing in 20 min anyway, plus there's nowhere to sit. Since COVID-19, our Nederland dining options have remained fairly scant, and we've been grateful supporters of places like Salto, Crosscut, Tres Gringos, and Busey Brews who are reliably operational during open hours. We have tried to support Backcountry too many times only to be disappointed by no response or nothing to serve. Happy to spend my local dollars elsewhere. read more

I should have gone to Crosscut Pizzeria. They have more stars than this crappy place. Rude af. One guy in particular. Looks grungy and has a beard and mustache with graying hair. Maybe that's his problem..he is pissed off at the world because he is a middle aged man working in a pizza joint. I asked if the other half of my order was coming soon after waiting over 10 min after they delivered the first half of my order. Food was getting cold so I asked a simple eff-ing question to which this rude MF answered with "we'll let you know when it is ready". I stood there and watched them put a small pizza in the oven so I asked another simple question: "is that my pizza that just went in?" to which the same rude middle aged MF said the same thing to me but louder and ruder. I didn't ask to be notified when my food is ready. I asked if that was my pizza. Just answer the fucking question. Perhaps this man is stupid and can't answer simple questions like the ones I asked. This would explain why he is working in a pizza joint. I gave my food, which was getting cold, to my daughter because she was so hungry. I did not eat. Pizza comes out 44 minutes after I placed my order. No apology for the wait. No explanation for the wait. Just crappy service. I asked for a to go box which he did not acknowledge my request and walked away. When he went back to the kitchen he grabbed a box and placed it on the counter behind me and said "to go box" and walked away. I always support mom and pop shops/independently owned places over chains, but this place does not care about their customers. This man single handedly ruined my mood. I can't believe I paid over $40 for someone to treat me like shit. I regret tipping before I received anything. Aside from shitty service, the restrooms are ridiculously dirty. I went to wash my hands and didn't close the door because I didn't want to touch the doorknob in fear of contracting an incurable sexually transmitted disease. Carpet in the eating area is stained. Ketchup pump has dried ketchup all over it. Sodas dispense very fizzy but still tastes flat. And they play very ratchet music. Atmosphere 0 stars; Service 0 stars; Cleanliness 0 stars; Value 0 stars; Food 0 stars (food might have been okay but anywhere with such horrible service will taste bad no matter what). Maybe I am just used to the southern hospitality we have back home in Texas. But not being a dick should be a requirement for everyone, everywhere. This place can take their "freedom fries" and "freedom bread" and shove it up the rude middle aged man's ass. read more

The Good: Lots of beer on tap and you can get fries with your pizza. There's a couple arcade games (Pac-Man!). Lots of different pizza options from classic to build-your-own, and they have salad too. The Bad: Kinda old-school and not that clean. The fries are definitely not homemade. Service and food can be inconsistent. Weird open layout with not many seating options. The Food: Came out pretty fast, and I thought the pizza was good. The Service: Not super professional, kinda weird but it is a mountain town so what do you expect? Overall: This is a chill local spot to stop in for pizza and a beer if you're in Ned. Not fancy and not trying to be. read more

Absolutely great "hole in the wall" type of place. After a long day of hiking, great service with great beer selection. As far as we could tell nothing coming from a frozen bag, tenders were hand breaded and fried, pizza toppings extremely fresh an just delicious pizza overall. Reasonable price for how much food we got. I read several very negative reviews on yelp before this and I am not sure how that happened as we have had a great experience. Thank you Backcountry Pizza for a great place to stop and carb up read more

Service is terrible. 40 minutes for a slice and then it's burnt? Hours are sporadic. Menu has been drastically reduced. Salads, sandwiches, and burgers are no more. Hopefully the new management can get it together. read more

Dudee..... if you want some badass. Tastey, exquisite pizza & beer? Get your ass over to back country pizza, where the beers are always pouring and the pizzas are always baking. Bartenders are fantastic, fun, open, and friendly. Anyone that gets butthurt and leaves a bad review about this place doesn't know the true atmosphere of this place. I come here EVERY TIME I go into Nederland. Wanna hear great stories and try some local beer? Come to back country. read more

So far an hour for two slices and still waiting. I will not come back. Sad because it could be a good place.

went three times. just wanted some pizza, each time they were unable to make me a pizza. one time the girl said oh we are closed, yet it was before 8pm, amd there was people in the kitchen and at the bar. other time it was passed noon people were in there they couldnt make me a pie or even a slice. i forget other time but its three strikes your out i just wanted a pizza. also my brother paid 30+ dollars for a pizza amd they gave it to him like it was dehydrated and stale with minimal toppings. im not very critical but how can they deny me pizza three times in a row. terrible. read more

IF I COULD LEAVE ZERO STARS I WOULD, I been coming here since i moved to Denver 5 years ago! Service has always been shotty but the foods good and the staffs never been nasty- UNTIL my last visit! I brought my husband and my son in for a nice dinner and we needed a table to seat 3 (there are 2) both were dirty, i walked up to the bartender ON DUTY (not the bartender sitting drinking a beer on her OFF TIME) and asked her if i could get assistance in cleaning one of the bigger tables to seat my family and i for dinner.. she hesitated in replying and when she did she said shed get it done, I walked back to the table and started cleaning it MYSELF as her friend who was there hanging when i asked for help getting a table cleaned RUDELY stated he'd "clean the damn table'' !!!!!! I was absolutely shocked, i couldnt believe the bartender wouldnt have stepped up - it should never be a problem to clean a table!! As a matter of fact, they NEED to start paying MORE attention to other things than just whose sitting at the bar! Ive been taking the hour drive up for the shotty service for so long, but after that last visit, i walked out as she cleaned the table and went to Cross Cut pizza- absolutely disappointing i had to, but i am thankful i did. Service was amazing, pizza came out fast! Step it up Back Country, if its that hard for your employees clean a table, who knows what it looks like in the back... read more

Today we got here at 11, because this place is supposed to open at 11, and the stoner cooks come up to the door once someone actually had to knock and say they don't start serving until 11:30. Um, I come here every Sunday for pizza and beer and you guys open at 11. Like usually I wouldn't care, but last time I was here I was waiting for my bill and I had to watch all three employees they had working smoke a bowl in the back and call for their attention just so I could pay my own bill. SERIOUSLY. Get your stuff together, it is not hard to open at the time you're supposed to. I'm not mad that you smoke weed, I'm mad that you can't open on time because you're so irresponsible. The pizza is good. Especially the deep dish! It's totally worth the little extra wait! And the cheesy bread is yummy too, and the wings! read more

Love the standard pizza and gluten free pizza here. Good veggies and toppings. Have only gotten it to go.

Not many options in Nederland to watch football, enjoy beers, and eat great food - but we stumbled on this hidden gem and had such a great time! Being a Steelers fan I was very happy to see the bartender Jessica wearing a Steelers jersey. I felt right at home. Staff was super friendly and we enjoyed talking with the other customers. The beer selection was on point- I was super impressed. The wings were some of the best wings I have ever had. I love this place and look forward to coming back for football! read more
