    • Heat oven to 400ºF
    • Remove pizza from box and place directly on the oven rack
    • Bake for 5-10 minutes 
    • Oven temperatures and timing vary. If there is a sauce or garnish, add it after baking

Cheese Board Pizza began with a fun idea on a shift.

We started making pizzas for ourselves by cutting off hunks of extra sourdough baguette dough, grabbing favorite cheeses from the counter and throwing on vegetables from the market next door. In 1985, we started serving pizza to our customers after regular hours on Friday nights. The idea was that we would make one type of vegetarian pizza each night, using fresh ingredients, unusual cheeses from the Cheese Board, all on top of a thin, sourdough crust.

That is still our recipe, but now the Pizzeria (two doors south of the Cheese Store & Bakery) is open for dinner three days a week. We’ve added salad, cookies, Buffalo milk soft serve, sodas, beer and wine to our menu. Live music at both lunch and dinner is part of the daily schedule.** While the line of people waiting for pizza is often out the door it actually moves very quickly; the music adds enjoyment to the lively scene.

**During COVID-19, we’re suspending lunch service and soft serve until we are appropriately staffed to offer them.

The cheese is made in Berkeley, by a vegan deli called The Butcher’s Son. We hope you will support this new local, small business as well: thebutchersveganson.com

HEATING INSTRUCTIONS: Heat oven to 400°F. When oven is fully heated, take the pizza out of the box and place it directly on the rack. Heat for 5-8 minutes. If the pizza comes with a sauce or salad on the side add it after the pizza is done. Enjoy!
