About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
You are cordially invited to visit Transfer Pizzeria Café, located in the Harbor District on the corner of 1st and Mitchell Streets. Established in 2008, the namesake is Transfer Pharmacy, a classic cornerstone drugstore from a bygone era that for decades supplied a thriving community with goods and services as evidenced by the stained glass windows still in place. The pharmacy was appropriately named for the constant activity that took place just outside - the boarding, departures, and transfers of the countless daily commuters of the time. The tradition of a reliable cornerstone establishment continues today, as Transfer Pizzeria delivers a unique dose of delicious pizza, drink, atmosphere, and friendly service.

We keep an active wait-list and gladly accommodate walk-ins as part of both our lunch and dinner service.

    Service was excellent! I appreciate the free dessert they offered my mom from Mother’s Day. Great drink choices from alcohol to N/A. One of the best pizza places in Milwaukee and restaurants.

    Always a great place for a chill date or with a family that has kids. We come here almost every time we have a family gathering . Easy menu to share family style or pick your own . Lots of drink options. Crust is crispy on outside and soft in middle. Not chewy . Always an easy fun visit

    We eat GF because our son has Celiac disease. The GF choices are plentiful and delicious, including bruschetta! Service was a little slow because our waiter had too many tables, but he was very nice and apologetic. Transfer is a Milw gem!
