We walked in really not knowing the program, the gentleman at the counter took note and got us going in a very kind and helpful way. Nice enough beer choices, a suggestion would be to also offer the Ghostfish Grapefruit IPA. Our gluten free diner did very well with her pizza and leftovers which says a lot. Food, we really just each got our own pizza so we could sample and have leftovers for Sunday. The Goat was mostly a favorite, probably the special brisket pizza the least favorite. Maybe more brisket or mushrooms or a nice feta would have made this one great too. Friendly people, good quality pies, a well thought out menu and dining area - we will visit again and again. Honestly, bonus points for their hours and open / off days . There is lots to do behind the scenes in a restaurant and having a good work / life balance is important. read more

Absolutely a gift, a blessing, and an outstanding dining option in Camas. Backpacker Pizza features a tremendously well-designed and crafted menu, space, and team. Their origin story and resulting restaurant add such a positive vibe. It's also got the "just-right" energy for a family dinner & a date-night reataurant that definitely cements their "upper-crust" status Your experience will be fabulous, your food will be delicious, and you'll realize that it's worthy of a "many more times than just once" pizza eatery! My mouth is watering just thinking about it. read more

Great service. Happy crew. Order at the counter and they bring it to your table. Super clean environment. Not too quiet and not too loud. Love the carafe of water and steel cup! Nice beverage selection! I ordered the sandwich special. It was a sausage sandwich that reminded me of a sloppy joe but soooo much better! It was delicious and the bread it's on was so fresh and I believe they baked it in house! The salad was awesome! Love the toppings and the way it's dressed! That was a great lunch! I need to try the pizza next! read more

I finally got down here to try Backpacker Pizza in the heart of downtown Camas. In my opinion, the location is the main reason I would come. There's a lot of great pizza in the Vancouver area. It's nice for me to just walk to dinner. This is a casual place where you order at the counter and find your table. We went early, around 5:00 on a Friday. No problem getting a table then! The many offers a lot of pizza options, from gourmet to more traditional. I saw a couple of options that made the decision hard. I opted for the potato prosciutto and my daughter wanted a different flavor so she got the mushroom pizza (I can't remember what it's called). They have beer, wine and cider, in addition to non-alcoholic bevs. I was unfamiliar with the wine options and the person taking orders made a suggestion and let me taste it. That was nice! I had a nice Malbec for $14. I thought that was a bit pricey. The staff were all friendly. It definitely had a friendly neighborhood vibe, which counts with me. The pizza was good and had interesting flavors, both of them. The mushroom one was rich, as they usually are. I enjoyed the salty/sweet combo on the prosciutto potato. The crust was a bit disappointing IMO. Just plain and not very interesting. My favorites are wood-fired and Detroit, for reference. When I ate my leftovers at home, I added a drop of honey. That was good. read more

First time here and staff is friendly and welcoming. The pizza has that nice crispy texture at the bottom while keeping the toppings together even when pulling it apart from the other slices. I enjoyed both pizzas. Preferred a bit more bacon on my pizza. The potato and prosciutto was different but still delicious. I really enjoyed the ranch too! Very dilly :P They support local artists with the wall art and family welcoming vibes of the restaurant. Will be back to try the special pizza! read more

Had a very late lunch here. Good selection of pies and beer. The service was great and pizzas came out quickly, but our crusts were a little tough. Two people can easily finish a whole pie. Overall a nice experience for a Saturday afternoon. read more

This place opened with great Pizza a couple years ago. Went several times and loved it. Guy from Portland came over to "help them out with the opening". Just went back tonight. Pizza recipe totally changed. The crust was most likely premade out of a frozen box. Horrible. What a disappointment to see them dump the quality and fall in line with all the other lousy pizza joints. Will never go back and shame on the ownership to let this happen. Also waited 45 min for the Pizza. Another closed restaurant soon. If you look at most of the good reviews. They were over 6 months ago. Totally changed place. read more

The crust appear quite dark and rigid, especially around the edges where it looks dry and overly firm. The cheese near the edge is caramelized and hardened, which typically happens when a pizza is overbaked or kept too long in the oven. The pepperoni and bell peppers look a bit shriveled and dry--another sign of overcooking. that biting into it would be difficult and not enjoyable. read more

First I wanna start by saying that the staff here were so friendly! They were able to accommodate a huge group of us and kept making sure to come by and check on us and continuously clearing our plates. The restaurant is very cute and clean. Got the hibiscus limeade which was okay. The pappardelle lamb pasta was good but probably wouldn't get it again. But the star of the night was definitely their pizza! They had a buffalo chicken pizza that was absolutely delicious, it was so saucy and flavorful and had a nice crust. It was not your traditional take on buffalo pizza and they really outdid their selves with that one! 10/10 would recommend that pizza. Definitely would come back to see what other tasty creations they come up with. read more

We're so lucky to have Backpacker Pizza in downtown. Not only are they delicious, but they're great neighbors who care about the community! Backpacker is involved in our downtown Camas community garden and they generously provided us with some beautiful pizzas for our kick-off party. It was the highlight of the day and every single pizza was perfectly crispy, with unique toppings and flavor combos. Their homemade ranch and the quality of their ingredients took it to another level. Thank you Backpacker! read more

First trip to Backpacker Pizza, 421 NE Cedar St, Camas. Nice quiet place, very helpful man at the counter. (They don't like to split pizzas, because of different cooking times. Who knew?!). And all pizzas are 12 inch. So I 'had' to order two pizzas. And a spot-on recommendation for beer. The Supreme is, well, supreme! A great combination. The Peperoni was great too - the pepperoni is much better than most. One complained there was too much pepperoni on it. I solved that problem. Convenient in downtown Camas. Highly recommended! read more

The food was really good! The service was also top notch, and they have a happy hour from 2 theough 4pm. Our server Corey was very kind and friendly! Would definitely come back for the food and atmosphere. read more

Tried to get in here earlier, since the restaurant opened just recently, but they've been really busy (super happy to see that). Stopped in this time on a Saturday afternoon about 2:30 PM, and (for a group of four adults) grabbed a couple of pizzas, a couple desserts, and a beer; ended up being just the perfect amount. Got the Thru Hiker and the Caprese, and both were great. Somewhat modest beer selection, but choices were right on the mark, and they also offer several other sorts of drinks (soda, coffee, canned beer). Service was super friendly, and pizzas came out in about 20 to 25 minutes, which was reasonable. Space is not huge, which I understand, so especially if you are local, if you don't get in when you want to, come back later and give them some business. Or, at worst, go walk around downtown and then come back in. Really a nice addition to downtown Camas. read more

I did not even know this pizza place was in downtown Camas. It's just a tad off the main strip, and it was amazing. We decided on the goat pizza and we're not disappointed next time we will try the through hitchhiker pizza. The Caesar salad was the best I had ever had, and they had done it their way, Using kale fresh green mix instead of the standard of Romain and their homemade dressing was so good. Best pizza I have had in a long time. Love they support local farmers! read more

Amazing pizza, exceptional service! What a great addition to Camas! We were a group of 10 who showed up hungry and so ready to eat. The service was prompt and extremely friendly. The pizza- crisp on the bottom and so flavorful - just perfect! We ordered the Thru Hiker and added jalapeños, the G.OA.T, the Supreme, Potato & Prosciutto, and a cheese pizza. Every pizza was delicious. We also ordered the House salad and the Caesar salad...yummmm! So fresh and tasty. We had our 2-year-old niece with us, and the owner came out and was totally engaged with her, bringing her things to keep her entertained. Such a family friendly environment! We will definitely be back!! read more

Good pizza, nicer service. Glad to have a decent pizza option in town. Owners are super friendly

Finally an amazing pizza spot in Camas. This place is awesome. Elevated pizzas, great drink selection, and super friendly staff!

Staff was great, space was decent, the pizza though, ingredients were top notch, crust was sub par, it was very hard and caked in corn meal. Actually was difficult to bite. The flavor of the sauce, cheese and topping were great, but the crust was tragic. read more

My class went there (15) and ordered 5 reg and 1 gluten free pizza and a salad. Everything was very yummy. The pizza even had the Cheese Pull action. Everyone was stuffed and even brought home some pizza...I highly recommend if your in Camas WA.. The staff was great too read more

I would go again. The staff was super pleasant, refilled my lemonade without me asking, and made great recommendations from the menu. The Van Morrison music in the background was perfect for the vibe. The lamb pasta special was the best thing we got. Packed with rich lamb meat, we ran out of noodles before the lamb and sauce (not a complaint at all!) and put some of the left over lamb on a slice of pizza; highly recommend! The thru hiker was good, and the crust was great (evidence that all their pizzas are probably really good). Everything tasted really fresh, and neither of us left with that sick greasy feeling you can get after eating too much pizza. Not too heavy, but still filling. If I could do it again I would order the loaded up, or potato prosciutto pizza because I love meat on my pizza, and the thru hiker is definitely targeting a health conscious eater who prefers fresh sprouts to sausage (more my wife than me). read more
