About

When James Fauretino and Kevin Countryman opened Pizza A'fetta in 1988, their only dream was to serve the best hand-tossed pie around Cannon Beach. Little did they know that the tiny eatery would become so popular that they'd need to expand in 2005. James and Kevin opened a sister shop in Seaside Beach in 2020 as the pizzeria's popularity increased.

Pizza A'fetta has become a culinary landmark because of its commitment to freshness, quality, and the community it serves. Over the years, it has perfected a menu that caters to a diverse palette. You'll find classic Margheritas to innovative creations that tantalize the taste buds.

Pizza A'fetta also prides itself on its involvement with the Cannon Beach community. The pizzeria often hosts events and participates in local initiatives. This deep connection with the town and its inhabitants is palpable when one enters the restaurant.

With a pizza shop at Seaside Beach, you can combine visiting the Ecola State Park with a night dining on a hearty pie.

Pizza A'fetta: Menu & Drinks

Pizza A'fetta's menu showcases pizza by the slice, classic whole pies, artisan offerings, and even gluten-free crusts.

Before ordering a pie, consider starting with an appetizer like the Fresh Crab and Artichoke Spinach Dip. This appetizer-for-two blends sour cream, artichoke hearts, spinach, fresh crab, and sundried tomatoes. The dip comes with five hot bread sticks, making it a filling starter.

All pizzas feature a made-from-scratch NY-style crust and come in a 14-16" size. Pizza by the slice is limited, but the choices are top picks for many diners, such as triple cheese, pepperoni, veggie, and meat combo.

The Smoked Basil Chicken features the eatery's finely crafted tomato sauce, mozzarella, Roma tomatoes, fresh basil, smoked chicken, and red onions. The pizza is topped with Asiago cheese and dried Greek oregano for a tasty pie with diverse flavors.

East meets West with the Thai Grilled Chicken. This pizza features homemade Thai sauce, mozzarella and fontina cheeses, grilled chicken, sweet red peppers, minced garlic, and green onions. Roasted almonds and dried Greek oregano cap off this mouth-watering pie, creating a fusion of flavors and regions.

For the adventurous, try the Pizza del Mese. The staff creates this pie on the first of every month and features the finest, local, and seasonally available ingredients.

What's nice is that these delicious offerings are at the Seaside Beach, so after visiting the End of Lewis & Clark National Historical Trail, you can replenish and revisit memories with tasty Italian fare.
