15 Best Pizzerias Across Oregon’s Neighborhoods And Coastal Villages

Oregon has quietly become one of the best states in the country for pizza lovers. You can find everything here, from wood-fired Neapolitan-style pies in bustling city blocks to takeout-only joints steps away from the Pacific shoreline.

I’ve been to many of these places, and I can tell you that the variety is staggering. These fifteen spots represent the heart of what makes Oregon pizza culture so special, blending local ingredients, passionate bakers, and communities that line up night after night for one more bite.

You just have to come, and you will experience the pizza magic like no other.

1. Apizza Scholls – SE Hawthorne, Portland

The room hums at dinner as first-come tables fill, pies sell out, and the phone lines light up before dusk. Long-fermented dough and classic toppings land as big, blistered rounds made for sharing.

I once waited forty-five minutes outside on a Tuesday, and the aroma alone made every second worthwhile.

The crust delivers that perfect chew, crisp edges meeting tender center, with sauce and cheese balanced like a well-rehearsed duet.

Expect a crowd, limited seating, and zero reservations, but the payoff is worth the patience every single time.

2. Ken’s Artisan Pizza – SE 28th, Portland

A wood-fired glow, slow-fermented crust, and Italian-leaning pies with an American wink define nights at Ken’s. The 12-inch pies and steady lines tell the story better than any sign out front.

Everything here tastes deliberate, from the tangy dough to the house-made fennel sausage that perfumes the whole dining room.

Families, couples, and solo diners all find their rhythm at communal tables under warm Edison bulbs.

Show up early or prepare to linger at the bar, because this place fills fast and stays full until the last pie leaves the oven.

3. Lovely’s Fifty Fifty – N Mississippi, Portland

Produce from Oregon farms crowns naturally leavened dough, with greens and foraged flowers drifting over hot pies like confetti. It feels romantic and resolutely Pacific Northwest with every slice.

The menu shifts with the seasons, so summer brings heirloom tomatoes and basil, while autumn ushers in roasted squash and kale.

I love how the crust here tastes almost bread-like, with a slight tang that plays beautifully against sweet, earthy toppings.

Outdoor seating on sunny days turns this corner into a neighborhood gathering spot where pizza becomes a celebration of place.

4. Scottie’s Pizza Parlor – SE Division & NW 21st, Portland

New York meets Naples here, from foldable rounds to grandma-style squares, all on naturally leavened dough. Two buzzing locations keep the city flush with slices.

I grabbed a late-night slice at the Division spot after a concert, and the simplicity hit harder than any fancy topping ever could. The dough ferments for days, giving each bite a complex flavor that lingers long after the crust disappears.

Whether you order a whole pie or a single slice, the quality never wavers, and the staff treats regulars like family every single visit.

5. Gracie’s Apizza – St. Johns, Portland

In Portland’s northernmost neighborhood, a tiny shop turns out about seventy 10-inch, wood-fired pies a night. Order early, then watch the evening drift by beneath the St. Johns Bridge.

The pies here are personal-sized, charred just right, and topped with a rotating cast of seasonal ingredients that reflect what’s fresh at the market.

Lines form before opening, and once the dough runs out, the doors close, so timing matters more than luck.

Grab a pie, stroll to Cathedral Park, and let the bridge lights frame your dinner like a postcard.

6. Cafe Olli – NE MLK, Portland

An all-day spot that leans into seasonal, market-bright pies at night, baked by a team that treats flour and fire like instruments. It’s cozy, creative, and very Portland.

Mornings bring pastries and coffee, but once the sun sets, the wood-fired oven takes center stage and the menu transforms into something magical.

I once tried a pie topped with roasted beets and ricotta, and it tasted like a garden party in my mouth.

The vibe stays relaxed, the staff knows their craft, and every visit feels like a discovery rather than a routine dinner out.

7. Track Town Pizza – Near Hayward Field, Eugene

Pre- or post-meet, locals file in for hearty, old-school pies stacked with Oregon nostalgia. The walls tell Eugene’s track story while the ovens handle the rest.

Every corner of this place celebrates running legends, with framed photos and signed jerseys hanging above booths filled with families and athletes.

The pizza itself is straightforward, generous, and satisfying, the kind that fuels long training runs or victory celebrations.

It’s a Eugene landmark that honors the city’s athletic heritage while serving up slices that taste like home to generations of locals.

8. American Dream Pizza – Downtown & Campus, Corvallis

A college-town institution that still tastes like a celebration, with classic combos, big spirit, and two lively locations. When OSU plays, pies fly.

The menu reads like a greatest hits album, with pepperoni, sausage, and veggie options that never disappoint.

I remember grabbing a slice after a Beavers game, surrounded by orange-clad fans reliving every play, and the energy alone made the pizza taste even better.

Both locations stay packed on game nights, so plan ahead or embrace the chaos and enjoy the ride with fellow fans.

9. Pizza Mondo – Downtown Bend

Hand-tossed pies slide from gas-fired hearth ovens, crisp and bronzed, right off Wall Street in the heart of Bend. It’s the kind of neighborhood shop that anchors a mountain town.

I stopped in after a day on the trails, dusty and starving, and the first bite felt like a reward for every uphill mile.

The crust strikes that rare balance between chewy and crispy, and the toppings taste fresh without trying too hard to impress.

Locals treat this place like their living room, and visitors quickly understand why Bend’s pizza culture runs deep and delicious.

10. Solstice Wood Fire Pizza – Waterfront, Hood River

Wind off the Columbia, a wood-fired oven inside, and pies that taste like the Gorge in peak season. Families gather on the waterfront for that charry, cheery bite.

The outdoor seating area overlooks the river, where kiteboarders and sailboats drift past while you polish off a pie topped with local ingredients.

I once sat there at sunset, watching the light turn golden over the water, and the pizza tasted even better framed by that view.

It’s a Hood River staple that combines stunning scenery with seriously good food, making every visit feel like a mini vacation.

11. Kaleidoscope Pizzeria & Pub – Medford

A colorful, family-friendly room where everything is scratch-made and the pies arrive generous, saucy, and proud. It’s a Southern Oregon crowd-pleaser through and through.

The menu offers build-your-own options alongside signature combinations, and every pie emerges from the oven loaded with toppings that don’t quit.

Kids love the vibrant atmosphere, parents appreciate the quality, and everyone leaves happy and full.

This spot has become a Medford favorite because it delivers consistency, warmth, and pizza that tastes like someone actually cares about every single slice.

12. Pizza a’ Fetta – Cannon Beach

Steps from the sand, this longtime favorite serves whole pies and by-the-slice to beachcombers with salty hair and sandy feet. A coastal classic since the ’80s.

The casual counter setup means you can grab a slice and head straight back to the beach without missing a sunset.

I’ve eaten here countless times, always after a long walk along Haystack Rock, and the pizza tastes exactly like a perfect beach day should.

It’s unpretentious, reliable, and deeply woven into Cannon Beach culture, serving locals and tourists with equal warmth for decades now.

13. Marzano’s Pizza Pie – Manzanita

A block off the waves, takeout-only, and baked on fire-heated stone, these pies taste like a day well spent on the Neah-Kah-Nie shoreline. Call ahead, waits grow with the tides.

I learned the hard way to phone in my order early, because this tiny spot fills up fast and the pies take time to bake properly.

The crust comes out smoky and sturdy, perfect for eating in the car or on a driftwood log while the ocean roars nearby.

It’s a Manzanita tradition that rewards patience and planning with pizza that captures the essence of coastal Oregon in every bite.

14. Gallucci’s Pizzeria – Lincoln City

Arcade bleeps, salad-bar nostalgia, and oven-baked pies define this Highway 101 landmark since 1974. Families pile in and linger over pitchers and pepperoni.

Stepping inside feels like traveling back in time, with vintage games lining the walls and the salad bar still holding court in the center of the room.

I remember visiting as a kid, and returning as an adult felt like reuniting with an old friend who never changed.

The pizza remains straightforward and satisfying, exactly what you want after a day exploring tide pools and outlet malls along the coast.

15. Cobblestone Pizza Co. – Newport & Toledo

Family-owned on the central coast, with classic pies, wings, and a steady rhythm of locals picking up dinner after work. Newport and Toledo both keep the ovens hot.

The menu sticks to what works, with pepperoni, sausage, and veggie options that arrive hot, fresh, and reliably good every single time.

I’ve grabbed takeout here after long days at the aquarium, and the convenience paired with quality makes it a no-brainer choice.

Both locations serve their communities with care, proving that sometimes the best pizza is the one your neighbors trust night after night.
