It’s Thursday, February 9th, and one of the most delicious days of the whole year… National Pizza Day! It’s time to get those hands dirty and dig into a big ole’ pie to celebrate. And remember, there is no “we” in pizza, only ”I” so personal is the way to go. Side of ranch, anyone?
Read on for a list of the best places to get your ‘za on in Avila Beach:
There’s only one true pizza joint in Avila Beach, 100 percent committed to the craft of the perfect pie, and that’s Mission Pizza. Choose from their expansive list of options or freestyle and build your own. Whatever you do, don’t forget to finish on a sweet note with cinnabites or a frosty rootbeer float! Local’s tip: skip the line and order ahead online.
Sister restaurant to Mission Pizza, you already know the grub at Custom House will be excellent… and served with an ocean view! Their elevated flatbread menu highlights stars like the Chicken Bacon Ranch or the Lemon Chicken Artichoke. Hungry yet?
Located in the heart of downtown on a gorgeous oceanfront property, Ocean Grill offers a stellar range of mouthwatering wood-fired pizzas. Choose from seven different options, from classic Margherita to another decked-out with house-made meatballs.
Did you know this creekside oasis makes a killer pizza lineup? At Woodstone Market, you can choose from local favorites like “The Veggie”, Pesto Chicken, or the good old Italian pizza. Or, you can get creative and have it your way, with fresh toppings of your choice.
Are flatbreads considered pizza? In this case, we are counting it! The Gardens of Avila features a delicious flatbread appetizer on their menu, complete tomato and pesto sauce, parmesan, and mozzarella cheese, finished with arugula, olive oil, and balsamic glaze. Yum!
Wood-fired pizza, oysters, and local wine. Now, that’s a trio made in culinary heaven. The new Shuck Shack has happily married the three and frequently hosts pop-ups with their friends over at Earth and Oven. Be sure to follow them on Instagram at @shuckshackavila to never miss an opportunity.
