The perfect pairing is a cold craft beer in one hand and a wood-fired pizza slice in the other. Our pies are baked to crispy, smoky perfection in our woodfire oven, loaded with fresh toppings and melted cheese so delicious, you won’t want to put it down. From classic Margherita to bold, creative flavors, every bite is worth savoring. Just make sure you save a hand for your beer!

Thank you responding with all of your creative Pizza of the Month suggestions. One recipe was requested several times, soooo the June Pizza of the Month is Southwest Pickle!
HCBs Southwest Pickle Pizza starts with a housemade southwest ranch base, then we add mozzarella, dill pickles, more mozzarella, and a dusting of bread crumbs. After baking we add more fresh pickles, crispy bacon bits, fresh dill, and finish with a drizzle of southwest ranch. It is as tasty as it sounds!
