    Wild River Pizza and Ale House, Cave Junction, OR - September 27, 2024
    Bruce O.

    Wild River Brewing and Pizza Company, OR - September 27, 2024 We came in around 2 pm on a Friday after doing a cave tour and hike at the Oregon Caves National Park. This is a great brewery/restaurant. It definitely has a mountain room pizza parlor feel to it. There are trees painted on the ceiling, plenty of seating, and a game area for the kids. We got the deli delight pizza which came with linguiça, sausage, mushrooms, and olives. One of unique things about the pizza was it's cut into nice diamond-shaped bite-size pieces. Small pizza was $22 and I got a 8 ounce pour of a tasty Jerry's pale ale. Everything was great. The service was very friendly and the pizza came out quickly.

    Cool home town feel with some cool local brews on tap. We ordered our pizza to go and got the opportunity to hang out and try some of the local brews before our pizza was ready. We all know that pizza is best fresh out of the oven but we didnt get around to eating this pizza until about 2 hours later but it was still really good pizza. Also a big fan of how they slice their pizza into small squares, it made for good snacking. And before we knew it we ate the whole pizza. I would deffinately get a pizza here again if we are in the area.

    This was a great "pit stop" for us on a long drive between N. California and Ashland, OR. Great beer, a surprisingly large menu, including tempting pizzas (though we both went for equally tempting subs), a well-stocked salad bar, and plenty of locals brews on tap as well. We were there sort of on "off hours," maybe about 2pm or so for a late lunch, so it wasn't crowded at all, but I liked the feel of the place... Like a camping lodge out in the middle of the woods (not tooooooo far off!!) with long, community tables and plenty of outdoorsy, "just got back from a day on the trails/rapids" kind of feel to it. You place your order up at the front counter, then wait to be called to get it, and enjoy a simple, tasty meal. Super reasonable pricing, My sub was great-- STUFFED, which is just how we both left once we were done!! Try Wild River out... Whether you're heading to (or from...) the area's awesome wild rivers, or not!!!

    Personal taco pizza was amazing!

    The personal taco pizza was absolutely amazing! My husband almost didn't want to stop here because he's not a big pizza guy, but we were starving. He ordered the bacon mushroom Swiss burger, and was in heaven. A lot of great house brewed beers on tap.

    Location was great & easy to find. Pizza was delicious! Beer was okay, not the best but had a few options for brewing their own. :)

    Some of the best pizza on the west coast, when we come up to visit Grants Pass, this is usually where we go.

    Whenever we're near Good Beach along the Southern Oregon Coast, we always drop into Groundling…read morePizza along the Rogue River. We love their delicious pies, but today we couldn't decide on which one, so we got two! Their dough has the perfect hydration to create beautiful air pockets, with just the right chew when eating. All of their pizzas are fired in their huge brick oven, heated by local madrone and alder woods, that impart a slight smoky note and a bit of charred leoparding on the crust. Pizza 1.) Agness Tomato Pie ($22.00) Made with ripe local tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, fresh garden basil, fresh garlic, Pecorino Romano, Parmesan, and EVOO. Pizza 2.) Milk & Honey ($21.00) Made with fresh Mozzarella, creamy Ricotta, Pecorino Romano, Parmesan, EVOO, honey, cracked black pepper, and I added cupping pepperoni. Both pies ate perfectly, and we had very little left over, as we were hungrier than we knew. Sitting outside on a warm, sunny day, watching the fishing boats cruise around the bay, was delightful. Each pie had their own uniqueness and complemented each other well. Their signature "Milk & Honey" version was uniquely satisfying. There was something about how the creamy Ricotta cheese melded with the sweet honey drizzle, fortified by the crisp, savory pepperoni that was out of this world. Table service was fast and friendly too. We will be back again. Thanks to the crew! Truth...

    On the evening of Wednesday August 12th I experienced one of worst dining experiences in my entire…read morelife (and I'm 65 yrs old)! I Waited nearly 2 hours for burnt Hawaiian pizza that tasted like cardboard. It didn't have ANY tomato sauce or spices. I guess me asking if the pizza was done 3X over a 2 hour period was RUDE!!! Not all was lost...the ham and pineapple were eaten! Worse than the pizza is the service. Nobody could figure out how to order. Do I sit first...nope...unless you sit at the bar. Then you get the worst service EVER! I tried to leave after 1.5 hours but I couldn't get the bartender's attention. This was a self learned behavior and the only way she could get a tip. I guess she figures if she can keep you there long enough, the pizza may get to you and thus you have to pay her! To experience Groundling Pizza is to experience how bad a restaurant can function in service and food preparation. You treat customers as grifters. Catch a clue...close your so called pizza restaurant and do the community a service. ps...I left my pizza on your bench at the entrance - opened box for everyone to see how bad your pizza IS!!!

    Best thin crust tavern style pizza we've had in a long time, in a very unexpected location…read more My wife, her mom, and I had just crossed the Oregon-California border into Oregon and used the nearby Dollar Tree in Brookings to be our end point on our fourth day Internet access had been spotty throughout our trip through Big Sur and then Redwood parks, so used a combination of Google maps and Yelp to find nearby businesses, just for fun. Fat Cat showed up with high ratings. None of us were particularly hungry, but their ratings for thin-crust pizza piqued my interest, so we adjusted our plans and walked in. There was one employee (Ian) working on this mid afternoon time on hump day, so had to get his attention while he was working in the back. You place and pay for your order first, so ordered a medium thin crust pineapple/ham ($15). Not knowing what to expect, I asked if the pizza crust could be made well done. We sat down at the fast food booths, and didn't have to wait long. When the pizza came, all of us knew immediately by the sight and smell that it was going to be great. The crust was the perfect thinness, and the toppings were generous. Our plan was to sample some of it and then take the rest back, but the three of us ended eating every single piece. It was that good. We learned a bit more about the business from Ian. It used to be a franchise pizza joint, but the owner decided to stop being a franchisee, and create a local name. 'Gato Gordo' was thrown out as an early name, with the final name being chosen as the winner from an early Christmas party secret Santa gift. The pizza crust is consistently made by a dough sheeter at a low thinness setting. This might be sacrilegious, but I think I prefer this way vs the hand tossed NY style that is way more prevalent (and way more expensive).

    Great friendly service and the pizza is pretty good too I'm originally from Chicago so my metrics…read moreare a little bit different
