Pies & Pints - Charleston, WV

One of the better pizzas I have had. Never expected to have a waiting for a restaurant in the city of Charleston but well it’s a popular spot so the wait was worth the while. We ordered the Nashville hot and the mushroom pies.both amazing! And the garlic bread was delicious! Photos don’t do justice TBH. Highly recommend! 💯

A fun place to eat in the heart of Charlestown WV. It offers a good selection of starters, sandwiches and salads. As well as a great selection of pizzas & beer. Prices were reasonable, the service was very good, and the atmosphere was casual & fun.

We had a big group and all of us ordered something different- we all LOVED the pizza! Rave reviews for the unique flavors!! For size reference: some of us finished small size pizza, others took a few pieces home! Small is six slices. We also have one friend allergic to gluten and dairy and they had gluten free crust and vegan option! I had the Peppadew but other faves were Nashville hot chicken, Thai, and chicken Gouda. Delicious!

Great place. Food is fantastic and a very good selection of beers. Between the sandwiches and the pies you can't go wrong. Highly recommend this place.

We came here for dinner while in town for the weekend in mid-May. A friend from the area recommended it. We sat at the bar - it was full when we arrived but a couple was leaving so we didn’t wait long for seats. We were welcomed in immediately by a bartender who gave us menus and got us a couple drinks. We orders two salads and shared the mushroom and garlic pizza (not pictures sorry!) The salads and pizza were very good. The bartenders were personable and attentive. The atmosphere was casual and laidback but upbeat and friendly too. They seemed pretty busy but there was no franticness going on from any of the staff. Prices were comparable to similar places we have been. I think it’s street parking - we walked from the hotel. We had an enjoyable time and would recommend to others.

Working for out of state and have eaten here twice... Pizza, wings, nachos, and beer selection was excellent. Staff was friendly.

This was the greatest pizza I've ever had. The pepperoni is crisp, the sauce was rich and delicious, and the cheese was gooey and flavorful. They dress the cheese with some sauce. This had me a bit skeptical, but it was absolutely amazing. There's a sort of spice they put on it with this garlicky flavor, and it's especially potent in the first bite, and it's absolutely phenomenal and compliments the pizza beautifully. I can't understate how amazing it was. The service was wonderful too, everybody was nice and helpful, and even though it was a full house and I had to wait a bit, I wasn't impatient at all because everybody working was so helpful. The atmosphere was amazing also. The lights hung up were so gorgeously and the colors really added to the environment. Everything was amazing and I'd recommend it immediately.

They have the best char-grilled chicken wings!! I myself finish all of it, without sharing! It’s so much flavorful and juicy in side, just can’t stop. And their pizza is amazing too! We ordered mushroom garlic, it was so good! It takes some time to wait for food, so not for people with busy schedule.

First time customers. We were in town for an evening before heading to Summit Bechtel and our scouting high adventure trip. It was a super busy weekend but considering we had nine people to seat we were impressed how quickly we were seated (under an hour). Grace was our server and was absolutely wonderful!! Pleasant and super attentive to our table checking on us frequently on a very busy night. Jessica the manager was also super helpful with our table and many others. Onto the food. Salad with gorgonzola. Amazing. Got a couple orders of garlic bread. One with cheese and one without. For pizzas we split two large. So essentially four pizzas we could all mow down. The sauce is unique and really good. Crust was amazing. It's a small and unique place in ways but the staff are amazing and the restaurant itself is neat and well kept. We really enjoyed everything and everyone. Do yourself a favor and get in here!!!!!

Must eat location on Capitol Street, next to Taylor Books. We ordered the chicken and gouda pizza, potato skins, and garlic and goat cheese flatbread. It's always busy at this location, with limited seating available. It's not necessarily a good spot for big groups because of limited space. The food is delicious! The garlic and goat cheese flatbread is a new favorite.

This was my first visit to Pies & Pints in Charleston, WV on the recommendation of a friend and family member. We had the chicken wings appetizer (a must try with the Gorgonzola dipping sauce) and pizza with half steak & mushrooms and the other half spicy shrimp. Everything was delicious and very fresh! The staff were super friendly as well as very knowledgeable and helpful with guiding us through the menu and the craft brewery selections. Speaking of the beer selection... so many amazing choices from a variety of local breweries. There's something for every type of beer lover including root beer! We sat outside as it was a gorgeous day. The restaurant is located in a lovely historic downtown area. Staff reminded us to go inside to see "Irene" which is an elephant painted on an interior wall. The story is that when renovation of the space was taking place to put in the restaurant a faint painting of this elephant was discovered and was believed to be from back in the prohibition days. She was then restored to her former glory and is a great site to see! Great story and lore to go along with superb food and beverage! I will definitely be back whenever I am in the area again!! Well done P&P - keep up the awesomeness!! PS - I wish I would have take some photos was too busy enjoying myself and totally forgot. Next time!!

I come here so often I can't believe I haven't reviewed already. Pies and pints is the best pizza in town, hands down. I love that they have an option for vegan cheese for me and it's actually good! Their white pizza is also amazing and I love how you can customize your pizza to just what you want. They have a good beer selection to go along with it!

The pies were delicious! The PEPPADEW pie was the absolute best pie!! The flavors were so complimentary. I would totally come back for another one of those. I also order a Greek salad. The veggies were fresh and crisp. Our server was very attentive and provided great recommendations. The place is nicely decorated and has a lot of sitting. Great for a lunch spot or for a night with friends.

Great service, absolutely delicious food. Has nice outside and inside. Staff was Very friendly.

Wow what a nice place to find in downtown Charleston! I suppose if you live here you already know about this place but I'm not from here so.... They have many many beers and ciders and ales available to try. If you aren't sure what one is like you can ask and the staff is happy to tell you about it, or if they don't know they will have find out for you. We had a Samuel Smith Organic Cider and an Organic Perry. Both were very good, the organic being darker and "chewier" but the Perry was quite light and crisp. Pizzas were all very good, and if you are at all worried after reading the description of the street corn dear not - it's pretty damn good.

Any time we are traveling we like to try restaurants along the way. We enjoyed pies & pints. They had great beer choices and delicious hot pizza. The only tricky part was parking. Service was quick. We enjoyed a Greek salad and a lItalian pizza. Three of us shared and we still had leftovers. A previous review mentioned "to-go" style service. That was not our experience. We had table service with real plates and utensils. We also did not have a thick crust pizza.

Whoa! Good place!! Pizza? Good. Beer? Goood. Both? Goooood!! Holy smokes. I got the peppadew pizza. Great. One of my kids got the street corn pizza - something I never in my life would have ordered but holy crap it was amazing! Like, wow good! Great taste with a kick. For my lunchtime beverage I ordered the Samuel Smith organic Perry cider. Now, I'm not a big beer person so I thought I'd try this cider. Delicious! Light, refreshing, tasty. We are in town for a few days and will likely be eating here again.

Food was still great, can't deny they make a great pizza but service was horrible today. An item I ordered was forgotten and trying to get drink refills was nearly impossible.

Literally the best pizza I've ever had, I love it. Great service, hostess and waitress both very nice, such a trendy looking place. The cost was a little high, but I would say that's most likely because it's a locally owned spot. Loved it though!

A woefully overpriced experience but honestly, not bad at all for what you're paying for. The beer here is fantastic, just the sheer quantity of the stuff they have on hand makes making a decision difficult. The pizza is good but not like NYC good. For the price point of what I recieved, in WV I'm content! The only issue I had was the lack of insulation in the building. Every time you sit at the bar and the door opens, there's a blast of cold air that will sear your backside. No pizza in particular is more notable than the others although the thai pizza was something unique that I've never eaten before. Worth giving it a shot when you're in town.

Great pizza. Good beer choices. Attentive service. Typical pizza and bar ambience. A could place to rely upon for good food.

We went some friends and we all got different pizzas so we could share and try new things. All the pizzas were awesome!

Great menu, great venue, great service. I ordered a spinach salad and a basic pie that I added caramelized onions and goat cheese to. If I went again, I think I'd rather order something that's already on their menu as opposed to creating a pie myself.

Pies & Pints always brings the good food and great beer selection! This was my first time at the Charleston location and the downtown atmosphere was the perfect mix of funky and business for this establishment. The entire wait staff was awesome and helpful and made me want to work there. I learned a little more lore about the history of brewed barley while munching on a large chicken Gouda pie.

We were coming through Charelston WV and decided on Pizza. Holy cow what an awesome find!!! We had the Steak and Mushroom pizza awesomely described by River a very knowledgeable friendly server! I literally had tears in my eyes as my mouth made my mind swirl with delight! We sampled a few awesome beers suggested by Anna another awesome knowledgeable friendly server! Truly a must go! Thank you and we will definitly be back!!!

Even though it's a chain, it's one that is worth visiting! We ordered the grape and Gorgonzola pizza, and while it sounded odd, the bartender assured us it was worth trying. She was not wrong! We added bacon and a balsamic glaze per her recommendation, and this is a MUST! So good.

When I'm anywhere in the vicinity, I'm going to stop by my favorite place in the entire world! Typically, I grab the seasonal heirloom tomato pizza from Pies and Pints for my birthday, but I was unable to this year. Lucky me, they are still serving it in October! Delicious as always! Double up on that Gorgonzola! Also, I am a huge fan of the cheese bread. I had enough for leftovers, so this was my lunch and dinner.

You had me at pies. Pizza pies that is. Mmmmm! I also noticed that nearly 10 years earlier my Yelpie pal Bruce K dropped by and left a great review. I almost went for the grape pizza, Bruce. Next time! Our server was excellent being well versed in the menu and corporate history. The pizza was cooked properly, ample in size, and heated up well the next day with our hotel microwave. Who doesn't love pizza for breakfast, lol?!? While we didn't order much, we would visit again if ever back in Charleston, WVA. Has the dough rising on my "Give 'em a whirl" meter. Mangia here!

If I could give less than one I would. Service on a Wednesday was horrible. I'd get it if it was super busy but it wasn't. Bread took over 20 minutes to come to the table. It took 35 minutes to get a table because they didn't want to clean the table. I was hoping to like this place because it is nice inside. Lighting is nice. But it's very very loud, it has lack of space. I will not be coming back. Greasy pizza, lack of flavor, waitress with an attitude, and terrible salsa so don't try that.

Everything from the food to the service was great. The various options and tastes that are present make any pizza you order will blow your taste buds. If needing a place to tap your taste and fill your palette this is it! A must visit when in town!

What an awesome spot! Was visiting Charleston for the first time on business last week, and this place came recommended from locals and based on the Yelp! reviews we saw, we gave it a try. Anna at the bar was fantastic - great knowledge of the local/regional beer options and was awesome about recommendations and providing tasters for us to try before committing. Hannah was our server, and if any of you travel for business you know how the separate checks thing goes - and she took care of that without batting an eye. She was super attentive and made sure our crew was enjoying ourselves and had anything we needed for our evening, which we absolutely did! We tried the Hot Mama and the Nashville Hot Chicken pizzas (pictured)...both were fantastic! The Nashville was mine and it brought that good hot chicken flavor and heat along with the dill pickle kick that I love on a slice! Bottom line: If you're in Charleston and want a place with a great vibe, mouth watering pizza, and a great beer selection, look no further than Pies & Pints!

Short stop in Charleston. Nice pizza spot downtown. We liked it!. Good vibe. We also had a delicious Caesar salad.

Pizza was excellent, no doubt about that. Service - not the best. Had to ask for everything: asked for silverware when salad was delivered. Asked for plates when pizza arrived. Asked twice for a glass of water. Server didn't come back to check on table. After a while had passed waiting for a refill for water, I finally got up to find someone. I stood 3 steps away from the beverage station. I first saw a host, who immediately instead asked who my server was. Then another server who asked where I was sitting so she could give the cup to my server. It was as if it wasn't possible for someone to just give us some water. Later when it was time for the bill we waited so long with not a single server in sight. I noticed the couple next to us going through the same thing. Like I said, the pizza was good--maybe better for take out.

We came here per the reviews on here. I also researched the best places in West Virginia to eat this place came up. We walked in and there was an hour wait. So we went to the Taylor book store. Please see their review. When we came back, we sat down next to the oven. Our waitress took a bit to come over as the place was still slammed. She then brought our waters and we got the wings. We then asked her preference on pizzas and then went 50/50 with the margarita pizza and peppadew pizza. The wings were delicious. Expensive though for 8 wings was 14 bucks. The Gorgonzola dipping sauce was great. We then got our pizza. The margarita came out soft on the bottom and the peppadew came out alright. The waitress however, seeing how we weren't happy offered to get us an entire small pizza of the margarita to make up for the soft portion. The second time it came out right. Everything was delicious.

Incredible service and delicious food! Thank you, Anna, you're wonderful. You took the time to give the history of the building and give fabulous recommendations. I'll be back!

All pizza is Detroit style, thick crust with ricotta cheese. Did not know that going in. Issue is everything is served "to go" and you end up eating with plastic cutlery and paper plates. Doesn't work with thick cut pizza which could use a little more cooking/crispness. Beer was great, flavor on the pizza was there. Atmosphere and service pretty good. Closer to a 4 versus 3, but somewhere close to the middle. No discount given to the tremendous amount of paper/plastic waste this place must go through.

The pizza here was average. The crust was like cardboard and the pizza sauce tasted just okay. There selection of toppings was the high point for me and the chicken wings were good.

Good staff, easy to talk to, will share information about the area. Good vegetarian options to eat. They allowed dogs outside, and brought my dog a water bowl. The outside seating was tarp-style for the rain which was thoughtful. Beer selection was good. The steak and Gorgonzola pizza was phenomenal. The pepperoni was one of the better New York style slices I've had from the region. The garlic mushroom pizza was very good as well.

Our server was fantastic! He was very accommodating and helped us with the menu options a lot. The food was delicious. Everything was great!

My husband and I have heard a lot of good things about pies and pints. It did NOT disappoint! The service was amazing and the pies were delicious! We got a large pie and they let you split the flavors of the large pizza! We got the chicken Gouda and the hot mama pies. I preferred the hot mama! It was very flavorful and for how thin the pizza was, it wasn't soggy! I would recommend this place to anyone wanting good food and a good time.

Came back a second time as my colleagues were hungry for some pizza and beer. Again, the service was good and the food was good/. Ordered a large pizza and the pork nachos....they were large portion and very tasty!

Food was good, pizza could of been cooked longer Caesar salad was filled with lots of garlic!!! Nice touch. Overall cleanliness of the place needs work! Staff continued to walk by chicken wings and napkins all over the floor.

Delicious food, excellent service. Clean and welcoming environment. Good drinks Excellent place to take the family. Excellent place for date night. I highly recommend this place any time

We stopped off here for a quick lunch as we drove through town and I was impressed! I had the grape and Gorgonzola pizza which was amazing. My partner had the Cuban which he also liked, and the wings, which he wasn't a huge fan of but he did say they were cooked perfectly. We did get our apps AFTER we got our meals, which of course isn't ideal, but they were slammed so I give them a pass there. We didn't realize it's a chain and there's one only a couple hours from us so if we are in the area we will stop by again for sure!

Stopped in for lunch. We had the chips & salsa for an appetizer to start off. We ordered the Cuban pulled pork sandwich, steak sandwich, and the pepperoni & cheese pizza. Everything was hot and fresh. Service was good. We sat outside since it was a nice day. Ambiance inside is very casual.

Food was good, service a bit slow but the place was very busy. Being busy, it was a bit noisy, so don't expect a quiet dining experience. Having said that, we would return if in the area.

The pizzas are okay if you dine in and eat them fresh from the oven. As for carry out... We ordered a bunch of their gourmet pizzas for a carry out order, they were not fit for consumption by the time we got them to the house, disgusting, soggy sloppy pizzas. Maybe a standard pep & cheese or something similar would make it home okay, but I wouldn't carry out anything else on the menu.

Food is terrific! Pizzas are varied and tasty. Salads are amply portioned and fresh (small could easily serve two). Can be a little loud inside. Outdoor dining available weather-depending. Only trick is timing on to-go orders. I arrived within five minutes of stated ready time and my pizza was already cold. Easy re-heat at home, but a tad disappointed. Still my go-to for out-of-the-ordinary pie.

We went on a Friday evening so the wait was a little long but we got a large half chicken Gouda and half hot mama pizza and it was delicious!

We got just a cheese pizza and the mozzarella caprese pizzas and they were both delicious! The service was fast and very friendly. Definitely recommend this! My husband gave this a 4.2 and I gave it a 4.5

If pizza and beer is your thing - then Pies and Pints is the place to satisfy that itch for crusty, garlicky goodness and a variety of craft beers. The atmosphere definitely gives off a college town vibe. It's nice to have a group of happy, well fed patrons kicking up a good time like my frat party days! Kappa Sigma forever. Bring a big appetite for the appetizers - mongo honking huge plate of nachos - which would feed four easily. The potato skins are amazing and the garlic toast was a nice introduction to our pizza. The parking is street side so be prepared to walk and to feed the meter. After six the metered parking is off. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

Really good speciality pizzas. A little on the wacky side, but not so weird that they aren't good. I can't recall the names, but we had an Italian grinder style pizza and a baja shrimp style pizza. Both were great. Only thing is it did feel a little expensive for the amount of food, but we would go back if we are in the area again.

Wow this place was a huge surprise. Their Thai shrimp pizza was insanely good. Wish we had one of these Pittsburgh!

Bellissimo! The gluten-free crust IS DELICIOUS under this gorgeous Italian pizza! They even have Daiya cheese, and it's hiding under there!! Very good allergy protocol. Loved the care that was put into my pizza. The order to food time is pretty average pizza length which is longer than most places. But it's worth it!!

One of the best pizzas I've had in a long time. Not that I'm a pizza connoisseur but it really was a flavor explosion. Great beer selection and staff was very friendly and attentive. Located on Capital Street it's definitely worth a stroll. Lots of shops and picturesque buildings. If you're on the mood for pizza go here for sure.

Yesterday I bought a Steak and Mushroom large pizza. May have substituted the horseradish for Parmesan sauce instead...but I'm daydreaming about getting home from work today for the leftover slices!! When I tell you I added shredded Parmesan cheese and Aoili on top of this pizza and Whoa!!! It's 4:33pm right now, 5pm please hurry up!!! I'm ready to finish my gourmet pizza right now!!

The staff was super friendly and helpful. They don't have anything specifically vegan on the menu but they are open and willing to help you create something vegan. They do have daiya cheese. Their pizza dough is vegan. I ordered the sriracha pizza but removed the cheese, shrimp and aioli. I added pizza sauce. They barely put any sauce on it at all. By accident they put daiya cheese on it but I was so hungry I didn't have it fixed. Plus there weren't many toppings so it would have been mainly just bread had I not had cheese. I got sriracha on the side to add more flavor. Partner got the street corn pizza minus the meat, cheese, dairy. He added daiya, Roma tomatoes and artichoke. He liked his pizza more than I liked mine. Their pizza dough is good but the toppings and flavors are lacking when you make things vegan. Would be so cool if they offered a couple vegan specific pizzas with cool flavors. No fake meats necessary. The beers were really good. Their outside space is very bare bones. Our server, Amelia was fantastic. She deserves a raise! This tiny little historic section is cute but all of Charleston, WV seems like a ghost town. It's so strange. I wish this restaurant success and thank them for making plant based adjustments.

Great food. Wings are highly recommended. Nice craft beer selection also, and knowledgeable bartenders to help with selection.
