Nestled in a cozy shipping container in RiNo, this intimate spot serves up exceptional wood-fired pizzas and fresh oysters, paired with delightful cocktails.
"Denver may not exactly be known for its pizza—although there is something called “mountain style” pie, and if you’re curious, you should visit Beau Jo’s for a taste. But there’s recently been something of a pizza boom happening throughout the city. Regardless of where you’re from or what time zone you live in, Cart-Driver makes exceptional wood-fired Neapolitan-style pies loaded up with toppings like wood-roasted trumpet mushroom, littleneck clams, and spicy calabrian honey. So long as it isn’t covered in a pile of snow, head out to the attached patio to escape the cramped shipping container space (seriously, the whole restaurant is 640 square feet)." - allyson reedy
"DENVER Denver may not exactly be known for its pizza (although there is something called “mountain-style” pie), but recently, there’s been something of a pizza boom happening throughout the city. Regardless of what time zone you live in, Cart-Driver makes exceptional wood-fired, Neapolitan-style pies with the perfect chewy, crunchy, cheesy, and tangy bite. And the toppings go beyond the classics—we’re talking wood-roasted chanterelles, littleneck clams, and lamb shoulder." - team infatuation
"Cart-Driver sets the standard for pizza in Denver. The wood-fired, Neapolitan-style pies have turned the heads of locals and snobby New York transplants alike, proving that yes, there actually is good pizza in Denver. The perfectly crunchy, chewy, cheesy pies are loaded up with toppings like wood-roasted chanterelles, littleneck clams, and spicy calabrian honey. So long as it isn’t covered in a pile of snow, head out to the attached patio to escape the cramped shipping container space (seriously, the whole restaurant is 640 square feet). " - allyson reedy
"Tiny but mighty, Cart-Driver turns an old shipping container into a party place whose guests gather over not just the oysters, wood-fired pizzas, Italian wines, and batched cocktails it built its name on but also terrific snacks like chicken-liver mousse and tinned seafood with fresh-baked bread and other fixings, plus spritzes and specials like pumpkin-spice panna cotta." - Eater Staff, Ruth Tobias
