Great place for pizza and beer. Their happy hour menu is pretty good! I always get the margarita pizza with the kale salad. The draft cider is awesome too! Highly recommend

Casual and delicious spot for pizza. It’s an order at the counter and seat yourself situation, but the vibe is super cozy. Don’t sleep on the kale salad- it might be my favorite I’ve tried off the menu! Every pizza we’ve had is also great. Crust is the perfect blend of crispy and chewy. It’s one of my default dinner spots in the neighborhood!

Stopped by on a rainy Saturday afternoon and was able to get a table on the spot. The atmosphere was nice and relaxed and the servers were friendly and efficient. I ordered a pizza and when I went to sit down I saw someone with the kale salad and had to order one. It was such a delicious salad! The kale was shredded and fluffy, there was arugula in it as well. Dressed simply with a lemon vinegarette, toasted bread crumbs and super thinly grated cheese. We did a build your own pizza with, pepperoni, anchovies, mushrooms, caramelized onions and garlic. The flavors worked well together with their homemade sauce. The crust was flavourful and had the perfect chewy, crispy texture. I didn't try any of the alcohol but I did get a fountain soda and was pleasantly surprised that the offerings were all real cane sugar soda. I will go back to this place in the future it was a wonderful meal.

The first time we ordered pizza for my son it was fantastic. Pizza wasn’t flimsy, crispy crust. Probably the best pizza we had ever had. He was at Randall’s Children’s Hospital for the week and we decided to order it again because it was so good the first time. Unfortunately the second time the pizza was floppy and not as crisp. Still good but definitely not the best pizza we ever had this time. We did prefer the first pizza.

Life of Pie Pizza in Portland is hands-down one of the best spots for pizza lovers! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the warm and inviting aroma of wood-fired pizzas. Their crust is simply divine-perfectly charred and chewy with just the right amount of crisp. The star of the menu is their Margherita pizza, which highlights the quality of their fresh ingredients, but honestly, you can't go wrong with anything here. The seasonal specials are always worth a try, showcasing creative toppings that blend beautifully. Beyond the food, the atmosphere is casual and friendly, making it an excellent choice for a relaxed evening with friends or family. Plus, their happy hour deal is unbeatable-delicious wood-fired pizzas at a great price! Whether you're a local or visiting Portland, Life of Pie is a must-visit for an unforgettable pizza experience.

This place has a cool vibe and the cashier was very sweet. Even carded me and I’m 41. The vegan “cheese” pizza is odd. I would expect daiya or a stretchy cheese alternative but they use blobs of gritty cream sauce. It’s a great flavor (closer to Alfredo sauce) but I’d be happier with a graded vegan cheese. My husband got the special and love it. Overall a great experience, with one menu recommendation, but I’m just happy they even have a vegan option.

Restaurant had a cool vibe with friendly employees. Got the happy hour deal ($8 margherita pizza) and it was excellent. A nice thin crust with a touch of char that was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, good quality mozzarella, and a flavorful tomato sauce. Was very happy with it and the price can't be beat for the quality.
