We stopped at Bear Paw Pizza twice during our trip, and it was fantastic both times. We kept it simple with the pepperoni pizza, and it was absolutely delicious - great crust, flavorful sauce, and generous toppings. They also have nice, clean picnic tables outside, which made it a great spot to sit and enjoy lunch. We've also heard the Hot Honey pizza is a must-try, so that's definitely on our list for next time read more

The pizza took a bit to be ready but it was so delicious that it was worth the wait. The large was the perfect size for 2 of us to get 2 meals out of. The salads are also good and big enough for 2 people to share. read more

What a great find in a Glen Arbor especially if you are looking for a quick bite to eat. Found Bear Paw Pizza here on Yelp and since I was nearby at Sleeping Bear Dunes I decided to stop by. It is in a cute hub of a market - I ended up purchasing a cute pullover from them to commemorate my trip. For the pizza i opted for the Bear Down Buffalo Chicken and the cheesy paw sticks. The pizza was phenomenal. I cannot wait for the season to open again in May to order again when I head up North. I took my pizza back with me to Chicago and it traveled well on the journey home. I cannot wait to try other menu options that they have in the upcoming season read more

The pizza was delicious and was the perfect meal after a bike ride. The workers were extremely helpful!! Thank you!

Wow!!! This place exceeded our expectations! Since it was in a liquor store we were a little skeptical with how the food would be but it was really a 10/10! We ordered the Pepperoni, hot honey, cheesy bread and it was DELICIOUS!! The sweetness from the honey and the cheese is an amazing combination. We also got the Carnivore pizza and it was soo good! The sausage was real meat, not like a dominos and it had such a good crust. It almost tasted like it was wood fired because of crispy yet soft dough but the crust was crispy and airy! I would recommend this place 1,000%. While we waited for our food we walked around the town and came back just in time for this delicious meal!! read more

Wow! This is my first ever review on Yelp, and it's for a good reason. This place was super cool and had a nice "home-town" feel to it. The lady who served us had our pizza done exactly when she said it would be, and when we were barely short on cash, she covered for us. Super friendly conversation with her too. We talked about candy! Also... I don't like pizza personally, but my girlfriend is devouring it as we speak... so I think it's pretty good. read more

Bear Paw Pizza - A great pizza - Pizza Near Me - Glen Arbor, Michigan

I have been getting pizza here for the last 20 years. Great pizza! And I'm not just comparing it to other local options. I do usually order it well done to ensure it's crisp on the bottom. The hours are limited so plan ahead and I don't think they're open in the off season. read more

This place was amazing. We almost didn't go because the review average is so low but after going I'm really confused as to why. We got a 12" split meatlovers and pineapple/mushroom/banana pepper. The pizza was perfectly cooked and delicious. We also got an order of the HOT HONEY BEARSTICKS and Wow... soooo amazing!! We couldn't stop eating them. Plenty of food for 2. The outdoor seating was clean and we sat in the sun - perfect weather. read more

Hands down one of the best pizzas I have had in awhile. The basil pizza was fantastic. Owner/staff were friendly !

Amazing pizza!!!! We had a margarita pizza, although they titled it something different. The crust was perfect and we really enjoyed it. They also have a wide selection of alcoholic beverages that you can buy and carry out. read more

Question: Is this good pizza? Answer: No, but It is the best pizza available. There are not a ton of options around so they have a monopoly on pizza. Very doughy and mediocre. However, since they have you by the short hairs you'll pay $30 for a pie and deal with a hour and a half wait. read more

Waited over a hour after I was told 15-20 minutes. Pizza was just BAD too--we got mushroom pizza. The mushrooms had let out so much moisture it had soaked through the bottom of the box by the time we got back to our room a mile away. The people were incredibly rude...when I asked again she just said "well you'll just have to wait, that's how it is." Not a lot of options here--still good this place. read more

Tried the jalapeño cheesy bread sticks, which were pretty good. Will be back to try their pizza next time I'm around.

The pizza's warm, they sell alcohol for takeaway only, and that's most of the package. We got a Hula Bear : ham and pineapple and green peppers. The menu lists some basic salads, but they were out of lettuce when we visited --- no lettuce so no salads. You can buy beer, wine, or liquor to go, but not consume it here. The tables and plastic utensils are basic, but a big step up from eating in your car. They don't have cozy booths or pitchers of beer, but they can get you out of the weather and fed with hot cheese, and some days that's exactly what you need. read more

This pizza is delicious. We live in Chicago and have tried many pizzas. This one is up at the top. Amazing crust. Beautiful toppings. Not a great eat-in spot but grab a pie and head for the deck at boonedocks or the wine bar at M-22 and you've got a nice evening ahead of you! read more

Love their pizza! Crust was to die for! We had take out for a rainy night and everything hit the spot

this place has the best slushy ever and amazing service 10 out of 10 this is a need place to go if you go to glen arbor read more

A fun pizza place in town. We enjoyed the meat lovers and a cheese burger definitely filled our belly's after sleeping bear dunes!

Bear Paw is expensive, but worth it. Their crust is phenomenal and the BBQ chicken pizza was amazing. 4/5 star review because of the price. read more

Good pizza and not bad price for this area. Quick and polite service. This pizza has a good taste not like Chicago or NYC but still very good. Crust was done perfectly crisp but not over done. read more

Got a large pepperoni when I was in town. The Pizza is good and the guys running it are nice.

Doesn't look like much as it's a pizza shop inside a convince store but don't be mislead, the food was top-notch after a long day at Sleeping Bear Dunes. Even during the dinner rush it only took ~15-20 minutes from ordering to food on our picnic table. The staff was incredibly friendly (great news when most of the cooks looked like high school/college students) and took time to tell us how long until our pizza would be ready each time we came back into the store. The ambiance is quaint and outdoorsy as the main dining is several picnic tables outside which actually lead to several fun conversations with other patrons who were from the area. Would recommend for anyone looking for a bite after a long day in the parks!! read more

Good pizza at about the right price. Quality ingredients and cooked just right. We enjoy our pizza and will return.

Considering the small town and surrounding options, Bear Paw Pizza was great. This place is totally cafe-like. I don't know if I've been to another place like this, which is half general store and half cafe/restaurant. You order your food at the counter and they make it for you and bring it to you table. You sort of help yourself to your own drinks and other snacks sort of from the grocery side of the joint. You pay as you walk out at a cashier - declaring everything you had. You don't see that in the big cities. :-) Everyone here was really nice and the whole experience was enjoyable. read more

We were visiting the Glen Arbor area to attend a wedding. Decided to order pizza for dinner from Bear Paw. It was absolutely delicious!! Fresh ingredients and outstanding crust! Literally one of the best pizzas I have ever had and residing in the Detroit area I've had a lot of pizza. We all loved it! I encourage you to try it yourself. read more

I've always enjoyed the Pizza at Bear Paw. It's nothing special but it's a good standard pizza. The only problem is, a single 8 slice Pizza is $27. I get that this is a touristy town but that's just excessive. If you're hungry and you're in town and you're willing to pay the price you'll enjoy it. read more

Antipasto salad was full and plenty with meat, peppers, cheese, olives and tomatoes but the ranch dressing left it lacking. It's a deli place but I expect homemade buttermilk and I got hidden valley ranch. The pizza was okay. Not the worst I've had not the best. Dough and crust were good. The pizza needed more sauce and more flavor. Without Parmesan cheese it was lacking in flavor. This place could have top notch pizza if they just added some flavor and sauce. Overall good but not great. For this town it's a good place to go. read more

My first visit to Bear Paw and it was probably one of the best pizzas I have ever had. The crust is soft and flavorful. Delicious! Don't miss out on trying this pizza. Wish they were down by were I live. read more

So it's not very often I complain about what food costs, let me explain. I factor in quality and quantity as well as atmosphere, waitstaff etc. I placed a phone order for 4 pizzas and 2 orders of bread sticks and the total came up to $128.00!!!! We actually thought we heard wrong and called back a minute later to double check and were told that was the correct amount so we cancelled the order. So these pizzas would have had to have the quality of a $30+ pizza but I doubt it and I wasn't going to chance it as bread sticks can't cost over $15 a piece. If you are going to order from here just order a small pizza and pray it worth the cost. Just remember Jets, Little Cesars and Dominos delivers for half the cost! read more

We purchased two large pizzas for the family the crust was excellent and the toppings plentiful. Will definitely be back. read more

Good takeaway pizza, at a decent price. Generous, tasty, nice dough, on time and hot. We made our own composition, and were not disappointed. Alcohol cannot be consumed on the premises, so we went home with some ice cold Michigan IPA's, a perfect match for that pizza. read more

This is basically a pizza joint inside of a convenience store. They have some seating. Pizza took about 30 minutes. We thought it was delicious! We were happy to have a cheaper option for dinner in this expensive tourist city. read more

Paid $75 for inedible food. Refused to refund us, even though we called right after, was told owner would be in next day and to take it back then. Took it back that night (99% of the pizza was still there some chewed up and spit out) and was treated like dirt by the owner. She was incredibly rude to my mother and has horrible customer service. We spent all that money on food we couldn't eat, and the owner seemed almost proud of the fact that she wouldn't refund money for her "superior product." At first my mother was cordial as usual, but received none of the same. I only wish I would have thought to take a picture of the horrible uncut pizza before we returned it. I would have also suggested taking a video if I would have anticipated being treated so horribly. read more

I've been eaten pizza since I got off the titty. I've had some great experiences with pizza and had some awful pizza experiences. Rating this pizza at 3 stars was hard to me. It's a better then average pizza, honestly, but the sticker price was shocking to say the least. First off, the dough was slightly doughy around the too big for it's britches crust. The sauce wasn't anything to excite the taste buds. Cheese is your standard mozzarella, meh. Toppings (I got pepperoni, sausage and mushrooms) are run of the mill. At 3.50 a slice, I expect this pie to have those grease cup tiny bois and fresh never frozen sausage. Even the mushrooms are the pre-sliced and canned type you come to expect from a chain pizza place. As for the pros, the dough was tasty. Sprinkled parm on a buttery crust was a nice touch. Customer service was decent. Truth be told I would've given them 4 stars, even with a doughy pie, but a 28 dolla holla could at least have premium toppings and fresh mozz. Protip: Skip the Dipping Stix (there version of bread sticks) for 7 bucks you're better off buttering some Wonder Bread. read more

I've been going to Glen Arbor for years now and have finally stopped here for pizza. From the outside it looks like a cute log cabin store. Inside is a simple market with a variety of souvenir shirts, snacks and drinks for sale (alcoholic and non) as well as the pizza stand. We ordered a large pepperoni pizza with green olives on half. It was ready in 15 minutes and we took it outside to eat on one of their picnic tables. The pizza was delicious and filling. We are a family of 4 and we had our fill with 3 slices to spare. They were also gracious enough to providea side of pizza sauce (a must for me). We would definitely get a pizza here anytime. Just an FYI, they do sell alcoholic beverages in the store but they are meant to take back with you, cannot drink it on the property. read more

Very good pizza, lots of topping, good crusts. A little expensive , but this is Glen Arbor!

Pizza is good and the store/market is clean and convenient. We had the meat lovers pizza and cheese bread. This a great place to pickup a pizza and grab a few beverages for an evening. read more

Another great find in this town! We ordered the basil pesto pizza, peanut butter and jelly and a standard pepperoni pizza. The crust is superb, they sprinkle parmesan cheese on it (except for the sweet pizza). Great place to go pick up a couple of pies and head back to the beach for dinner. read more

Surprisingly great pizza and subs considering that this place is a pretty innocuously looking joint on a small town "main street" in upper Michigan state. Was staying at the nearby Homestead Resort a few miles up the road and had maybe the best slice of pizza i've had in some time. certainly better than one would expect to get "in the sticks". particularly remarkable was the light and crispy crust. the subs are good too, but a bit pricey for my taste ($8.50 for the average combo sub). worth a visit if you find yourself in these parts. read more

Great pizza. Staff is wonderful. We like carry out since restaurant is inside a convenience store but that take the quality of the food down! read more
