Really good pizza cooked in brick oven

This is hands-down one of my favorite places in the universe. Fantastic food, great beers and awesome people. 12 taps of Craft and Belgian beers. No horse-piss swill. I'm fairly sure all of the employees are huge beer snobs, but not too condescending about it. There's also a great selection of bottles available. Wood-fired oven pizzas and calzones with a variety of both traditional and more eclectic bases and toppings. They also make a sort of fried pizza dough breadstick (called sgabei) that comes \with tomato and pesto sauces or topped with powdered sugar and chocolate sauce. Also available is a calzone stuffed with a candy bar of your choice and deep fried, which is exactly as delicious and excessive as it sounds. They also have salads, topped with the same toppings they use on the pizzas. They're top notch too, but can quickly get expensive if you like lots of stuff on your salad. read more

The pizza is SO good. We had a wait on Saturday night but it was worth it! You order at bar. Good craft beer choices too. Would definitely go back. read more

Pizza is delicious... love the brick oven!! Great variety and flavor combinations! Small seating area is my only complaint... you get to know the people at the table next to you. I have had nothing but great experiences with the staff. read more

Great pizza every time! Large selection of drafts make it all the better too! Super fast either for dine in or take out.

Great brick oven pizza, in fact the best pizza in North Carolina as far as I'm concerned. The atmosphere is interesting and well, let's just say it's cozy. I don't drink beer but from the looks on folk's faces, and the amount of beer they sold while I was there, it must be pretty darn good. The only drawbacks are limited seating and no wait staff. I really don't think there is room to have a wait staff. I have been here just a handful of times but will be back for sure. read more

The Salty Caper - Pizza Near Me - Salisbury, North Carolina

Oh, caper, how I love thee. I've been going here for years and it's as good as it gets. House made everything. The pesto is especially delicious. My personal favorite pie of theirs is 'The Lovely'. You wouldn't expect to find a wood fired brick oven in a modern condo building in Salisbury, but here it is! And then there's the beer selection...it's limited, but it's a great variety and high brow (sometimes Unibroue, even!). They have rotating taps and a larger selection in bottles. Occasionally, they'll run out of one or two; for example: any hefe in the summer. But this is a tiny establishment. Any beer they have you can sample before ordering. Just as a helpful note! If you're with a group, sitting outside is a good plan. Leaning back in the grass with a pint full of beer makes for an enjoyable night. If you have a date along, intimate conversation while sitting close at the bar staring at the fire is as good as it gets. read more

Pizza and beer. What else could you want? My husband and I like trying new beers and The Salty Caper is the place to do it. The staff knows their stuff about each and every single beer on the menu. We tried two different kinds each and they were all great. We got a spinach and feta pizza, it was absolutely mouth-wateringly delicious. The best pizza I've ever had. I can't wait to go back and try a different pizza. The only gripe is the seating. It seems almost haphazard, like they don't have enough space for the tables or something. But that's not their fault, so it's not a big deal. It seems like it would be really cramped if it was a full restaurant. read more

The Caper is a solid brick oven pizza restaurant with all fresh ingrediants. I eat here just about every week and these guys stay on top of their game. In Salisbury there is no better pizza. Late night music could be a little lower but thats just me getting old. read more

Tasty Pizza and nice craft beer selection but just not enough sitting on a Friday night is a big downside.. They have patio seating in back but that does not help in the winter read more

One of the better pizzas I've ever had. The meatball and chicken parm pizza was great. Beer selection very good. Not sure why a place this good is here. read more

Love this place. Pizza made fresh in front of you with fresh mozzarella. Beer selection is diverse & the have real Chianti. Have been there twice & have been satisfied with my food, drink, & customer service. read more

The pizza here is great and service is good. My biggest issue is the "hard metal music" and lack of dining space. The music is WAY too LOUD to be conducive to good conversation with friends and family. Also, owners should look into expanding dining room for more seating options. Do away with the hard metal music and I will be back more than once a year. read more

A small, local pizza place that is a big surprise right in the heart of dowtown Salisbury. Awesome brick oven pizzas and craft beers on tap that change regularly. These guys clearly have a passion for what they do! read more

The Salty Caper - Features a variety of craft beers! And best of all, you get to watch your brick oven pizza being made right in front of you! - Pizza Near Me - Salisbury, North Carolina

See all

Great selection of craft beer and pizza. Pizza is thin crust with gourmet toppings and was delicious. Caesar salad was okay, serve in a plastic container with plastic silverware. You do have the option to customize your salad with any of the same gourmet toppings available on a pizza. read more

Great artisan pizza. Cool little spot in Salisbury - definitely not to be missed. I really enjoyed the House pie, bbq chicken and prosciutto pizza (in that order). It's a relatively small place so you may have to wait for a table. I don't recommend going with more than 4 or so people as there aren't that many tables that seat large parties. The prices are reasonable, and the staff is nice. Looking forward to going back here soon! read more

For North Carolina, this pizza gets five stars. There is no decent pizza in the area (much of it compares to cardboard with tasteless white and red goo atop). this is the best you're gonna find!!! don't let the gross name dissuade you ;) warning: closed on sunday! read more

Kick-Ass Brick Oven Pizza and a fabulous Craft Beer selection.... Where's the DogFish...Haha I live in Rehoboth and know Sam and Mariah... Great Place.... read more

I like a good, thin crust pizza like the next person..... but the prices are extremely high. Just not enough value to justify a future pizza order for us. read more

The pros: Moderately priced food of higher quality than other local places, consistency, ever revolving kegs of draught beers from around the world, and stays open later than most places in an otherwise sleepy town. Cons: Staff has been rude in the past. They have since become more professional. Cramped and loud inside environment on busy nights, but there is outdoor seating in the back which is a nice place to sit. If you want to visit the center of Salisbury hipsterdom, have a nice rustic pizza, and perhaps chat with a few locals, this is a cool spot. It's earned loyalty from lots of people. read more

I like the pizza but 1 hour wait when told 30 min is Ridiculous. Heck offer a guy a drink.

I love all pizza and this is the best thin crust I've had in the Carolinas.

Excellent beer variety. Incredible pizza. The Salty Caper Pie is the absolute best - ricotta, pine nuts whole, pesto and tomato pizza sans the marinara. AMAZING. Thank you Salty Caper. read more

Both my son's and several of their friends have eaten here bunches of times.So finally we met some friends Saturday night for supper.The wood fired pizza along had me wanting to eat here,but the numerous craft beers was the icing on the cake so to speak.In the door we noticed not a lot of room or seating.With our party of six we chose to sit at some tables out back.The options for there pizza or Calzones where a full list.We chose to large pies and a few of us got a salad to go with it.Salad's came in a clear cary out box.You sorta pick some sides and dressing and they bring it to your table.While we were placing our order I was trying to decide on my beer,the owner asked me what kind of beer I drank,When I told him he gave me and my son several samples of craft.Bad part I liked them all.Our daughter-in law went back in when she found out they had a KeyLime beer.She loved it,but she also likes Lemon anything dessert.Our pizza came out just at the right time.Their crust was dead on,Our toppings where fresh and the pizza was liked by all.You pay your tab when you leave.Not at the counter when ordering.I understood better since one of tables out side with us made several trips getting more beer.I liked their setup.The food and hospitality was great.I just hope it won't be long till our next trip back. read more

Great pizza! Great atmosphere! I'm just visiting NC and I'm glad I randomly picked this place to eat! My friend and I shared a plate of the fried dough with pesto and marinara (this sauce is super tasty!). It was a great start. I had the Lovely pizza and she had the calzone. So, so good! read more

The Salty Caper - The Lovely - Pizza Near Me - Salisbury, North Carolina

I would call this place kid friendly only on week nights, and then only if you are ok with a loud bar-like environment. Our two kids did fine, one 4 weeks miraculously slept through the entire dining experience, and 4 yo loved the pizza (plain cheese). We ended up spending around $55 for two premium beers and two large pizzas with the fried dough for desert. Seating is limited, however there are tables out back (which I would recommend weather permitting, as it looked quite enjoyable out there) We were traveling through on the way home from FL to VA. The friendly people at the table next to us were startled to discover we were from out of town. They said "you have discovered the best pizza around here" Thank you yelp, and thank you yelp reviewers! read more

Lovely stout and crispy crust flatbread pizza. Knowledgeable bar folks with local beers! read more

The Salty Caper - Pizza Near Me - Salisbury, North Carolina

The best pizza in town if you are looking for a cool vibe, that doesn't have a lot of screaming kids. I know that sounds wrong but it's more of an adult atmosphere. They have great beers (craft mostly) and they have brick fired pizza! It's a little pricey so it's good for a splurge! read more

Great pizza, great beer, and a great atmosphere, THE place for pizza, beer, & fun is Salisbury NC.

Good authentic fire oven pizzas. Small location with minimal seating so its crowded usually. Worth the wait though.

The pizza and beer here is great! I wouldn't exactly characterize this as a "family place" due to the small number of tables and loud music, but I have taken my daughter here. She loves to sit at the bar and watch the guys make the pizza. They are always very good with her and give her a good show. If I could make one suggestion, it would be to turn down the noise level a bit. Sometimes it's difficult to have a conversation with your companions. We've been here multiple times and will definitely be back! read more

This is the best pizza in town! The restaurant has increased in size and they are observing Covid 19 rules. We have tried several different pies but our go to pie is a large pepperoni and sausage. They have the best pesto sauce!!!!!! read more

Insanely good pizza. Seriously.. Limited seating..and thats fine. Hate crowds. Beer.... Lots of beer. I read over the listings, and didnt know where to start..until..there is was...literally right in front...might as well have been flashing neon and waving at me.. Chimay Grande Reserve.. Chimay...its worth every penny just to be able to locate it local. If you dont like, loud music of a metal nature, if you dont like ordering at the bar, if you dont like great freakin pizza, if you only drink Bud Light, if you dont like feeling like every penny was well spent when you leave a place...well, you wont like this one..and I doubt anything short of psychic waitresses with free beer and food would make you happy... But...if you do, and realize it might take a few minutes to either get a seat, or your order.. Then..you will love this place. Oh...and if you have never had a 9% Grande Reserve Chimay beer... its like beer candy...and they have it. The price isnt bad either at 11 bux a glass. read more

This pizza and beer joint is amazing! It is small but it has a cool vibe and delicious food. The bread and homemade pesto is out of this world. Pair that with a white pizza with more of that pesto on the side and you have a perfect meal. Or, you can finish it with a deep fried candy bar! The staff are nice and quick on service. Great place! We keep going back for more! read more

Great place for a wood fired pizza oven pizza. Food is always fresh and tasty. Give this place a go the next time you are in the pizza mood.

Good food and alcohol. Breadsticks were meh. Fun decor and atmosphere. Customer service was fine. But SUPER slow with bringing the food out. Took OVER a half hour between ordering and receiving our food. No apology as we were leaving. I won't return and wouldn't recommend. read more

Waited 45 minutes for my food with zero compensation for it. The server was rude and cussing about other customers. The calzone was good but not worth the wait. Will not be going back. read more

Tried to stop in at the brewery next door, but they were closed. Saw all the fantastic pizza reviews and decided to give this place a whirl. As it turns out, they (of course!) have beers from next door on tap. We lucked out and got a table right away, seating is extremely limited. You have to go to the counter to order, who knew? Pizza took about an hour. We ended up not taking our leftovers and this was the first time in a long time that I didn't finish my beer. "Meh". read more

The Caper , wow what to say about this place. It's become somewhat of an institution here in the Bury, always known for its excellent pizza. All fresh ingredients on the pie and a large selection of brews to enjoy with said pie. It's kinda small and gets crowded pretty quickly, make sure that you go up to the bar to order anything because they're not coming around to take your order. Grab some extra napkins when you go up to order I love coming here but only hit this place up about three times a year and that's because every time that I leave I feel broke as hell. Its great food but man I feel like I dropped a whole paycheck in there. Food is a solo five stars but the price and lack of service drag it down to a three star joint. Good luck and bring lotsa dough with you !!!!! read more

The pizza is good. The sign in the women's bathroom that proclaims "All activity monitored by video camera", not so much. I imagine this is someone's attempt at humor but I think it's inappropriate and classless. read more
