From a post-hiking perspective, I'm partial to "Pie for the People" (in Lee's grocery) up at Snoq pass. I'll often times order one while enjoying a cold one at Dru Bru or Commonwealth. They'll even deliver to Dru Bru if you want pizza with your beer.
If coming back from the Mountain Loop or north, I like Brooklyn Brothers in Everett. |

Was there last summer, my brother has "connections", so we didn't have to wait an hour to get a table. He also took me to an Italian bakery in Bridgeport - cannoli heaven! Then we spent the rest of the day in a Portuguese bar tossing back beers and watching soccer with his crew. I like the way the communities back there keep their cultural identity...they didn't just blend in and disappear into the sea of assimilation.
I can't really tolerate bad west coast pizza, too much sponge dough and heaping piles of half cooked mushrooms - Northlake Tavern style -
More isn't always better, sometimes its just more...like with giardia.

Omega pizza in Granite Falls, best pizza I have ever had, all home made and their salads and Calzones are awesome too! In addition, they have very attractive waitresses.

Technically, it's not considered "pizza" by some (specifically John Stewart) But Chicago Deep Dish Pizza from UNOs is quite tasty. Don't be fooled by any Seattle joint that claims to make Chicago style deep dish pizza -- it's not the same -- there is a freshness to the sauce used in Chicago that I haven't experienced anywhere else.
I like the pizza from a hole in the wall place a block and a half from my son's apartment in Harlem -- by NYC standards it is average -- $5.00 for two slices and a coke -- $10 for a 12 inch cheese pie.
Hard to get excited about Seattle's pizza offerings now.
Worse pizza I've ever had was from a place in Bilbao, Spain -- Totino's brand frozen pizza made in a toaster oven would have been better. |

I am partial to Frankies pizza in both North Bend and Enumclaw. Got to be a favorite when I worked on Kelly Butte and now again when I work in North Bend. Good solid food.

Any Spokanites, or Coeur d'Alene-rs, out there who have a favorite spot?
I am looking for a place that has good pie toppings most of the way to the edge of the crust...not pies with 1-2" of crust showing all the way around where a 16" pie is really a 12-14" pie with 1-2" of crust.
I have had good tasting pies at these places, but they all left too much crust showing for me:
- Beneditos
- Capones
- Firehouse
- David$$

For those who live in South Seattle, Breezy Town Pizza on Beacon Hill makes some of the best deep dish Pizzas I have tasted outside of Chicago. |
