High Mountain Pies: Reviews & Ratings
Everything was fantastic, wings are double baked and both the spicy bbq and buffalo are delicious. We went with the daily special pizza and added bacon to it based on the cashier’s recommendation. Perfectly cooked and every topping’s flavors mixed together great. Absolute must stop if you are ever in Leadville.
This is easily the best pizza I have ever had. I don't know what they do to their dough at this altitude to get this light fluffy pizza crust, but whatever it is, keep it up! On top of that, the fluffy, light garlic bread! The service is great! Friendly staff and a great patio with great views! Definitely give these guys a try. You're not going to regret it!
Not that they needs it since there are already many greats reviews this place is a great stop if you’re driving from RMNP to aspen. We orders two salads and three pizzas based on their recommendations. All were amazing (crocodile, deluxe and San Luis) very interesting flavors and ingredients combinations I’ve never tried before. I would skip the garlic bread tho
Wonderful pizza experience on a sunny afternoon. Enjoy counter service with friendly delivery to multiple outdoor tables behind the restaurant. About half the tables are covered. Additionally, a few small tables are available inside. Don’t let a line scare you off. The cashier is quick and you will have drinks and water in a very short time. The restaurant will make a delicious thin crust pizza any way you want it!!
One of the best pizzas I have had ANYWHERE in the country! I’ve been coming here for many years on visits to Leadville and the pizzas are always very consistent...high quality, fresh dough and toppings made to order and hot while you wait. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about this place. I hope they have many more long years in business serving delicious pizzas. Some tips are: the inside seating is very limited so be prepared to take it to go or eat it outside. Also, I’ve been a couple of times where their credit card machines are down and they can only take cash so bring cash just in case. Read text about 15 minutes to prepare if they’re not crazy busy but you can always order ahead by phone in advance.
The best PIZZA restaurant ever! 20 mins from best ski resort, Ski Cooper and found this amazing pizza place. The folks that run it are so personable and exceptional pizza chefs! Seating is limited but we sat at the bar and had a great time. Do yourself a favor and make the drive for amazing pizza and wings and great ambience! Thank you guys for making our day with an awesome dinner and company.
Probably some of the best pizza I have ever had! The people at the counter were so friendly and kept the line moving quickly. We ordered a salad and a pizza, the salad came out quickly but the pizza took a very long time, about 45 minutes, but it seemed like a busy night. It was well worth the wait; as others have said, the crust is especially delicious. We also loved the brownie! I would definitely check this place out if you are in Leadville.
Oh my god you guys. This place is so good. Absolutely fire. Pizza had the perfect crunch, thin yet fluffy, perfect seasoning, good music playing, and 10/10 whine in a bottle. Come here, trust me.
