Pizza was everything I wanted and more! Great local beers and amazing dinner spot. Make sure to make reservations. Walk up line was 2 plus hours for a group of four from what we heard.

WE HAD READ THAT BEAR ST TAVERN had thin crust pizza - our favorite. The first time we tried to eat they had NO openings for 2 hours. Next time we made a reservation for lunch and were received a little early. Excellent thin crust pizza and Grizzly Paw sodas. Service was good. Our table seemed to be in a draft from the back patio door but i had a jacket. We would go back again.

I dined with a friend from England at Bear Street Tavern. Our server was helpful, friendly, and provided impeccable service, and the beer and pizza were outstanding. Bear Street Tavern definitely lived up to its reputation and I expect to return soon.

Fabulous pizzas. We booked outside seating but it was a little breezy when we arrived so switched to the bar seating area. It was fascinating watching the young lady prepare cocktails and other drinks, she barely stopped for breath. Friendly feel and good service.

This place was recommended for the pizza....which was great. The crust was thin and perfectly crispy. We were there on a Tuesday when they do margaritas for $6, and calzones for $12. Quite a sweet deal. We had pizza and it was great ( the "Bison" especially). Noisy and crowded but worth it. Fast service, friendly too!
