The food here was so incredible - I know pepperoni pizza sounds basic, but I swear it's the best I've ever had because of the crust and those crispy little pepperoni cups! The pear and arugula pizza is also DIVINE. This place is a literal gem - go now!!! read more

The Crafty Beaver Bar - Pepperoni Pizza and Pear and Arugula Pizza - Beer Bar Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Found this little gem on a Thursday run with my running group. Stopped in afterwards and had the pear, arugula, goat cheese, and hot honey pizza. Wonderful pizza with all ingredients well balanced, albeit a bit messy. Was told by the bartender afterwards that next time I could add meat ingredients too. So if you want to guild the lily just ask. The atmosphere was perfect for an intimate couple with soft lighting, quiet music, and dark colors. This would be a perfect cozy date spot (21+ only, so kid free zone). Plus, afterwards, there is gelato next door. read more

First visit and a wonderful experience. We arrived about an hour after they opened mid week. We were greeted warmly as we walked into the cozy restaurant that has a warm relaxing neighborhood spot vibe. I branched out and went with a "non traditional" pizza of Fig & Prosciutto and my companion got the meat lovers. Pizza is highly subjective but this was perfection. Crust wasn't too hard or soft. Toppings were fresh, flavorful and filling without being heavy. One can be enough for two people but we wanted leftovers. I am looking forward to my next visit. read more

I LOVE The Crafty Beaver! We stopped in the other night for a beer. I had a pumpkin ale, which was super tasty. The guy working there, possibly the owner, was super nice! The kind of guy who makes you want to return somewhere just because of the service. We also tried a cheese pizza and Caesar salad. Both delicious! Very fresh ingredients. read more

The Crafty Beaver is good vibes all around. That perfect neighborhood spot feel, with fun decor, and yummy pizza. It's small, low-key, nice lighting-- makes me feel peaceful. I really like the pear salad and chicken bacon ranch pizza. Go check it out! read more

Loved my meal here so much that I added a stop on my Uber ride to drop my leftovers home before going back out to a bar lol. Small, quaint spot with about five tables and a small bar. Super cute interior decor, especially around Halloween time when I was here! But even better - the food. I ordered the Arugula Pear pizza (goat cheese, arugula, pear, & hot honey) and added bacon. This pizza was perfect. Albeit very messy to eat, the taste was spot on. I even enjoyed leftovers heated up in the oven as a late night snack, but fresh was really something else. Service was great and very kind. Cool but mellow spot to enjoy some great brews and fantastic pizza! read more

Good pizza, good price! Nice atmosphere and great sevice. Great date night before a movie at the Grand. We will definitely visit again.

Food and atmosphere are excellent. Will definitely come back time and time again. It'd be great if they had a pick up spot right in front that they could have for five minute parking. read more

The Crafty Beaver Bar was on our list to try for a little while now. It is right next to a gelato shop we really like going to and that is how we first became aware of it. We had to do some errands and coming here for supper last night to conclude our journey out proved to be a great idea. They have lots of wine and beer options. Some of the beer is on tap while others are in bottles or cans. They also had some root beer I wasn't previously familiar with so I got that as well as a beer. The food here is really good! We had roasted nuts as a starter, almonds to be exact and they were very good! The pizza we split was one with pears, hot honey, arugula and goat cheese. Not that it needs it but I put a dash of red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese on it and it was so good! Not super greasy either as far as pizza goes... very little in fact which I appreciated because I definitely got the impression I was eating something a little bit more healthier than the regular run of the mill pizza. Our meal here was excellent and I'd love to come back and try out more of their pizza options. There was one involving figs that really caught me eye also! read more

Excellent pizza. I got mine carry-out. I will be going back soon & try a dine-in option'

What a great find in Tacoma! This is kind of away from the bar scene which I do appreciate because there's less of a hassle to find parking. It's right next door to a gelato place which if you have not tried yet, you must try cause their gelato are homemade and very good. But back to the Crafty Beaver Bar, it's a really small bar with bar seatings and about 4-5 booths/tables. Not quite a speakeasy vibe, but the decor and paintings are pretty cool and unique with beaver paintings and animal heads coming out of the walls. The food and drink menu is small but sometimes it's good to keep it small and sweet to the point you know what I mean :). Lol any who, pizza, that is what my friend and I came here to check out cause my friend is kind of a pizza snob. We got the meat lovers which is a decent size, proportion of sauce, meat and dough was just right and they do load it with the meats. Also, it was baked perfectly, the crust was browned just enough but not burnt. Cool place to kick back and just chill with friends or even by yourself! read more

Great service, beer selections, and snacks. Live band was playing too which was a nice surprise. Definitely recommend!

This was easily the best pizza I've ever had. The owner/bartender was fantastic and did both the bartending and the cooking. Super personable guy. Highly recommend the Arugula Pear pizza and the Chicken Bacon Caesar and their sour on tap. The crust is perfectly puffy with a crisp. Fresh ingredients all around. Highly recommend. read more

BBQ chicken pizza was fantastic. Nice spot to have great drink & meal. Super chill and nice atmosphere. Service was great too!0

Super cute, cozy little place. A handful of tables and nice bar setup. Good pizza and super nice staff.

Wife and I had dinner here on a date night and it was great! We each had a cider and shared a Caesar salad & an arugula pear pizza. Everything was made well and tasted great. I added a prosciutto add on for my pizza and it paired very well with all of the flavors! I really enjoyed the hot honey on the pizza. Service was polite and attentive and I will be coming back. It's a cute date night spot as it's close to The Grande Cinema and there's a fantastic gelato spot right next door. A great combo for a wonderful night. read more

I was looking for a spot for dinner, and as I always do, I relied on Yelp for assistance. I came across the Crafty Beaver Bar and noted the 4.9 star rating. My sister and I decided to try. It's a newer pizza place, small but well decorated and cozy. They sport flat bread pizzas. We ordered what I would call the meat lovers pizza. Jeremy, the owner was in attendance and made our pizza. Mel was the server and very engaging and attentive. At that time we were the only patrons in the restaurant. I asked that the pizza be extra crispy and my wish was granted. The pizza was delicious and a really good size. Needless to say, these two old ladies required a to go box. If I had to give any suggestion for improvement, it would be the beer selection, not sure that just because I love a hazy IPA, it is room for improvement. I definitely suggest if you are in Tacoma that you give this place a try. read more

The ambiance is nice. The establishment was filled that night, but it never got too rowdy or loud for me to study in the corner. The pizza was a pleasant surprise and fantastic. The meat lovers pizza was filled with meat and the crust had a good crunch -- cooked to perfection. I downed it with a delicious cold IPA then walked next door for some gelato for dessert. read more

Small place in bottom of apartment building. I had some reviews and was craving pizza so it was a good fit. We had 6 in our party and 2 of us had to borrow some chairs and sit at end of table. We are flexible, but if you aren't I wouldn't come with a party of 6. The owner was there alone and he had us plus a group of women sitting at the bar and 4 more at a table. Even being shorthanded he was excellent. Took our drink order quickly and delivered quickly. The pizza was excellent. The crust was not thin and not too thick. The Combination was delicious and the pear and arugula was also great. As well was the prosciutto and arugula pizza. read more

Epic pizza! We ordered the Meat Lovers and Arugula Pear. Both were excellent. Crust is moist, tasty and has just the right amount of crunch. Red sauce equally delicious. The Crafty Beaver definitely sets itself apart from other pizza places in Tacoma by offering unique presentation (sort of flatbread style) and really full, delectable flavors and tastes. The owner, Jeremy, is also very nice and THE MAN for making all the food himself. The passion shows and we'd love to keep coming back and sharing with others how dope The Crafty Beaver is! read more

This has been on our list of places to try, but I kept shying away at the price of the pizzas. Honestly, most of Tacoma's pizza spots are overpriced and underwhelming. While The Crafty Beaver's pizza might still be on the pricier end, the execution of it did not disappoint, and dare I say it's the best we've found in Tacoma yet? We will definitely be going back! We aren't big beer people, so I enjoyed the selection that they also offer of cider and wine as well. The atmosphere is also very tasteful. A great date night spot or a place to catch up with a couple of friends. And let's not forget dessert right next door! read more

Amazing "flatbread/artisan" style pizza. Every bite was delicious. We had the chicken bacon caesar and I highly recommend it. The owner and server/bartender were awesome. They allow dogs on the front patio and it's right next door to Medzo Gelato if you need an after dinner dessert. Come check it out you won't regret it. Awesome new addition to Tacoma read more

Great pizza, staff gave amazing service, nice selection of cider and beer, ambience casual

The 2 pizzas were like half of a real pizza. No sauce, both were the same when I ordered 1 combination and 1 meat, I added mushrooms and they were missing, the crust was regular I ordered thin crust, terrible flavored old meat. Tasted like crap!!The price was $60.00 plus tip which was to tally absurd highway robbery and there was no one eatingthere at 5:00. I would give them a 1 star and it was burnt read more
