Spectator Pizza & Pub

I don't know why this place would only have a 3.8 rating. First off, the pizza was phenomenal. Rob did a killer job on the pepperoni pizza. The kids working were a little aloof, but they're just kids! The beer from Chapman's was delicious, it paired perfectly with the crunch from the undercarriage. I'll be back more frequently, thank you Rob! -Cheers

We were so excited to dig in I forgot to take a picture of the whole pie! Amazing Hawaiian pizza with generous toppings (especially the Canadian bacon). We ordered extra red sauce and they certainly delivered. Crust is hand tossed/stretched and delicious - perfectly thin, kind of buttery tasting almost reminded me of pretzel dough. Friendly, engaging and helpful staff. Overall great experience, very fairly priced food & drinks.

We rarely get pizza and we decided to try Spectator as a take out treat. Glad we did. I ordered the Greenwich Village Pizza, which has a white garlic sauce, tomatoes, mozzarella, fresh basil, garlic, grilled chicken topped with a balsamic glaze. We substituted sausage for the chicken and it was great! The crust was thin yet chewy, and all of the toppings were very good. Service was friendly and efficient, good quality for the price. We will be back.

Love the pizza. "Pizza by the slice" should be enough to love Spectator, plus you'll also find the best New York style pizza (and my go to pizza joint) in the area. Their Classic Pizzas won't break the bank and you're taste buds with thank you for eating their pizza over others.

Awesome staff and amazing pizza.

Rob, madden, John, Jackson and Zach are super cool people!!

Wowza- we finally found true authentic hand tossed New York pizza! This place is a true gem! Food, service, atmosphere, cleanliness all 5 stars. And everyone here is so friendly! Thank you Rob for a great experience!

UPDATE: return trips had the expected size of pizza. I've increased the stars to 5.

Best pizza in West Linn... but not nearly as big as they say it is

The pizza was very good. The crust really great with a nice, chewy texture. Toppings were excellent as well - we had the Pony Express pizza. Probably the best pizza in West Linn.

My one complaint is that the 18" pizza was not 18" (they said it "shrunk" during cooking) and it left 3 people feeling hungry. I'd expect that spending $24 on an 18" pizza would leave 2 average adults and a kid feeling reasonably full.

As a comparison, if we get a 16" family size Papa Murphy's pizza, usually there are a good amount of leftovers and we are quite full. So they are really missing the mark here.

I gave them 3 stars because the pizza really is good - but they need to provide a better value to earn 5 stars - just make the large pizza truly large!

Excellent service very good pies and salad, fantastic selection of beers on tap. We're really happy to have a good pizza place in West Linn. I came here in 2015,back again in 2017. Ate there both times. Chef/owner very amenable, asked several times if all was good. All staff gave top-notch service. We're making this a favorite.

I have been looking for a great pizza place and I found it in Spectator pizza. Great customer service, very clean and a friendly staff. Always helpful and very welcoming. I would HIGHLY Recommend to anyone looking for a fantastic pizza place and a fantastic pizza. It’s not like most pizza places where the pizza is dripping in grease. Fresh ingredients all around. This is now my go to pizza place.

It took us several years to try Spectator... however, it is the only pizza we have ordered since trying it back in March. We love their dough, creative, yet tempered toppings and overall quality. Reminds us of Italy. It isnt about quantity, but quality.

Jackson is 5 star server. He is amazing, nice and really good at football. MUST DATE!

So lucky to have this place nearby. Pizza is perfect every time. Wish they can update their Voicemail when they don't plan on opening during regular business hours for customers to know.

Surprised this place is surviving with one employee on sunday. Thankfully it was an awesome person named Eve. Guaranteed she's not getting paid what she's truly worth. This person was killing it, when we were there. Might have to steal her and give her $20 hour plus tips at my buddies restaurant.

A little pricey, but the pizza is made with top shelf ingredients dough is prepped a day before to have time to rise. Always treated like family, staff is so sweet.

Very good variety on menu, and good place to chill and eat pizza with a soda. If you're feeling like it, you can just get a slice of cheese or pepperoni, but options can vary to much *can't think of a word but more extravagant basically* pizzas.

We heard that the new owner was an acquaintance of ours so we had to try it out. Sorry we missed her but the food, service, and atmosphere were excellent. Will drive the distance and return or they need a location in the Fairview area.

Not a big fan of pizza sauce, but they have several delicious sauces to choose from. Good beer options and televisions to watch games.

Some of the best pizza around. Service was wonderful. Was treated like a king. The only pizza place I go to. The server Derek is the best.

Really good pizza! Quick and efficient, and of course tasty! Our new favorite take out spot.

Very good NY style pizza! Service was wonderful as well!! We will be going back for sure!
