Pleasant Grove Pizza Farm

It had been a few years since we visited but had the perfect opportunity (and weather) on a recent weekend. We visited a Saturday when they open at 4 and got there just a few minutes before they opened. There were a few other parties and the parking slowly started to fill over the first hour or so. Apparently the wait for pizza can get up to two hours so arrive early and make a day/evening of it. It's a farm so expect rustic. After driving down a dirt road and parking in a field you make your way to the barn to order. Other items to note are porta potties, farm animals and trails. They are a clean farm so you bring in everything (drinks, sides, plates, napkins) and take everything out...including the pizza boxes that they serve your pizza in. All the info says to bring your own chairs/tables as well. They do have plastic tables and lots of folding chairs that must be for events because they don't set them up. We forgot our chairs so opted for one of the two picnic tables that says they are available for parties of 8 or less but felt like we got some side eye and then we we're actually called out on it by the owner to other customers which was sort of odd. So definitely bring your chairs/tables/blankets. Onto pizza...it's delicious. We've now tried the Lola, mn mess and pig and pork and all are amazing. This pizza is delicious and the experience is just unique enough to make it worth the drive. Pizza: 5/5Setting: 5/5Service/hospitality: 3/5

We love pizza farms. We have been to three different pizza farms and after our visit to Pleasant Grove Pizza Farm, we may just have found not only our favorite pizza farm, but some of the best pizza we have ever had! Pleasant Grove is about an hour from the metro area. Through a small town, then out into the fields and down some gravel roads. A very scenic and quiet area. They have several pizza options on their menu including the occasional special. They also have something that no other pizza farm we have visited s had. Pizza fries. We really enjoy pizza fries and theirs are excellent! Made with fresh and shredded mozzarella cheese, garlic olive oil then baked to perfection. Their pizza fries come with a nice side of sauce. The shredded mozzarella with the fresh mozzarella a wonderful combination! After contemplating between the Lola and the Buster, we ordered the Buster. The Buster was excellent! With sausage, mushroom and caramelized onions and more fresh mozzarella, it's one of the better pizza's that I have ever had. But oh wait, there's more. We had planned on stopped for dessert on the way home however at the last minute we decided to try their Blueberry Dessert pizza. Wow! Score! This dessert may be one of the best desserts that we have ever had. We literally could not stop eating it! Full of plump juicy blueberries on top of lemon cheesecake, with honey and fresh squeezed lemon. This dessert was warm and sweet. Lighter than a bar but not over cooked. It just melted in our mouth. I'm already missing that dessert. We both agree that while the pizza is really good, we would definitely return just for that Blueberry Dessert. Really nice area to eat with a live band playing. They had drinks available and an apple cider bar. We will definitely be back here again!

We ordered the Buster pizza, which included wild mushroom & sage olive oil, sausage, caramelized onions, mushrooms, basil, & fresh mozzarella! You order at the counter, are assigned a #, & then wait for your # to be called at the pizza window. There was a bit of a wait, as lots of "to go" orders were being done. However, the wait was worth it. The pizza arrived hot & fresh. I loved the crispness of the crust. There are no trash cans on site. So remember to bring all your trash home with you. Also- be sure to pack plates, napkins, & drinks if you plan on eating on site. There are some picnic tables. However, seating is limited, so you might want to BYO chair.

What a great little weekend get-away from the cities!! I have been hearing about these "pizza farms" since I moved to MN a year ago, and I am SO glad that I could check this one out despite Covid-19 raining on our summer parade. We haven't been quite ready to dine-in at a restaurant, so this place is pretty ideal: completely outdoors, bring your own seating, utensils/dishes/drinks/etc. They just hand you a piping hot box (or boxes) of fresh pizza. This was genuinely the best pizza I have had in my life. We went with "The Buster" but asked them to leave off the sausage to make it vegetarian. The flavors were amazing!! Cheesy, umami, salty perfection. The crust was crunchy and doughy. We also couldn't resist the desert pizza which featured lemon, blueberry and cream cheese. The pizzas are huge, and two of us had plenty left over. We hung out for a couple of hours, slowly noshing on pizza, sipping our BYO wine, playing card games, and listening to the live musician (who was hilarious btw). What a great wait to end summer.I am sure I sound like a horrible person writing this--but the only downside for me was that there were a lot of kids playing ball. We were trying to social distance, but unmasked kids kept running by pretty close to us, and their balls kept landing right by our blanket. Not a fault of the business, but just a heads-up if you are planning a trip there during Covid times.

Pleasant Grove Pizza Farm is a perfect treat for escaping the city. How it works is you bring your own blanket, chairs, table settings, drinks, dessert. You order amazingly delicious and fresh pizza. Listen to live music, take a walk around the farm, see the animals while you wait and then relax and eat your pizza on a spacious green lawn. There are many different kinda of pizza to order from and the ingredients are fresh from the farm. My favorite has prosciutto, goat cheese, and honey. The pizza is really really good and for $25 you get a large enough pizza for 2 people or more. They offer different kinds of entertainment throughout the year so check their Facebook to see if they will have live music and what bands are playing. You can always just order pizza for pick up, but if your driving all the way you might as well make a night of it.

Still a 5 star review for me. Even if you are doing Keto, you can still dine with your carby cohorts. PGPF has stellar charcuterie boards. I mean really, so fricken good! Definitely ask if it will be on the menu before you come. Even though I crave their pizza, these boards have my heart.

Its a lovely property. Isolated enough that I was beginning to wonder if I had taken a wrong turn somewhere (Siri has taken me to more than one place I wasn't looking for). Finally located it down a dirt road and pulled in. There were only two lots in the vehicle at that time as we were about 20 minutes early so we had time to wander the property.Big open barn space with what appears to be a small bandstand in the corner for music nights. They took our order at a small table. There is a big chalkboard on the way showcasing the different and options. They take cards which is great (some places don't) and we snagged a picnic table right by the door and under the overhang since it was a bit of a rainy day. We were the first order of the day. There is a large pen to the side that has a couple of goats and some other livestock in it. One goat got out and walked right up to the barn and settled in behind me so I'm constantly checking out the corner of my eye to make sure he's not going to ram me. Pizza AND a floor show.Of course, you've come this far for the pizza and overall its pretty good. We got the Buster which is mushrooms, sausage, basil, garlic, onions and a few other ingredients. It doesn't have a red sauce so its a bit of a different flavor profile than a standard pizza. The toppings were good and I would have liked it better but the crust was charred on the bottom. Not your standard wood fired oven char, but burnt. So much so that is what I mainly tasted in certain spots. I'm chalking that up to the fact that we were the very first order of the day and maybe the oven hadn't yet reached the perfect temperature yet. I guess I'll have to get there to try it again once I complete the circuit of pizza farms.It started getting pretty busy once we got ours and started eating. People bringing in tables, chairs, wine and making an event of it. The masses don't lie. Its worth a trip if you are in the area.

Cute little pizza farm about an hour drive from the twin cities. The pizza was great, my favorite was the Georgia pie which had goat cheese, arugula, prosciutto, mozzarella cheese and honey. The honey was different but made the pizza even better. There was some lawn games and nature paths, definitely recommend checking this place out.

Expect a 2-3 hour wait at minimum for pizza if you arrive after 5pm. If you come after 5pm, bring your own food. If you order before 5pm, do not expect a refund.

I think a pizza farm is my favorite part about living in the Midwest. This is the third farm I've been to, and the pizza may have been my favorite pizza ever, inclusive of non-farms. We ordered one that had prosciutto, honey and goat cheese and it was incredible, and we also ordered the pizza fries (regular pizza cut into strips with marinara dipping sauce) and they were SO GOOD. A to Z Pizza Farm wins out for farm ambiance, but this place is still very cute and COVID-19-friendly as well, not to mention it's only an hour from the Twin Cities. Highly recommend!
