The food is good, the prices are ok, but none of that matters if you can't eat here. It's just super packed all the time so there is no point. Lines and waits are long. It's so loud inside you can't hear the person next to you. You hope you get lucky and there's actually an empty parking spot. I've been here multiple times with family, because one of them likes it here, and it has just never been an experience I wanted to pay for.

Astoundingly good pretzel- dark and a beautiful crust. Beware if you don't like a slight pumpernickel. One of the best pretzels we have had anywhere in the world.
Great atmosphere with a friendly staff. Tremendous beer selection.
Pizza is tremendously good with a stellar crust. Light and a great chew. Toppings are as advertised. We had the burgler and it was the truest burger tasting pizza we had ever had.
Come and check the place out!

Beer. Pizza. More beer! The pizza hits the spot - probably my favorite pepperoni pizza to date and it's just as good the next day. They're working on a gluten-free crust, so keep an eye out for that. The salads are simple and fresh, complimenting the pizza well. And who can complain about the beer? If you like Odell's, you'll like Pinthouse. They brew their own, but also have a great selection of craft beer. The Peach of a Pale was delicious! Parking is a little cramped and be sure to respect the restrictions of their neighbors parking lots. What I love the most about Pinthouse is the family-style seating and all of the families that fill'er up! One of the few brewpubs I don't mind seeing kids in. So, here's what you do for one of those no-frills date nights: get a medium pizza (large was a bit much for me n my boo last time and we were even ravenous) and your favorite brew (we dare for seasonals), grab a spot on one of their benches and then smile because you're in an awesome place in town!

Pinthouse has a great room feeling with wood tables and decorations, the beer selection is incredible always something new and seasonal to try and a few excellent mainstays. Pizza and beer cant ask for more

It can get pretty busy at peak dinner times, but the beer and food is always great. They brew their own beer and also have about 50 other beers on tap at all times. Plus, every pizza I've had has been delicious. The pizza rolls are killer too. I've always had a great time here.

The beer is amazing, some of the best in the country and that's why I go. The pizza is pretty solid too. I just wish there was better seating and parking but that's what's to be expected at a very popular urban eatery.

Delicious food and beer with a great atmosphere. Definitely worth the wait. On weekends and late nights you can be waiting for more than an hour but during the weekdays after lunch hours you can get a mean pie and a cold one.

First pizza in 8 months and The Works (ricotta subbed for green peppers) was really good. The bartenders werre able to speak to the beers on tap which I found refreshing. Next time I cheat this place is on the shirt list

Let me just start of by saying The Green Belt. Order The Green Belt... With prosciutto. It has everything you want. The crust on all of their pies is cooked perfectly; crispy outside and chewy inside with a little bit of brick oven char on the outside. Their beer selection is pretty incredible. Also, if you're like me and love variety and don't know what you want, the people behind the taps take the time to talk you through what you're looking for in a beer. Hoppy? No problem! Sour? Get it on! Sweet? Indulgence is on its way! Or just get a plain ole flight of whatever is seasonal. These guys know their brews and will gladly let you taste them first. It can get crowded here, but never enough to put you out. Also, did I mention one time that I was picking up a pie to-go and they gave me a "leftover" pizza for free?! Also, it could have been because they recognized that was the 6th time I'd been in to pick up pizza that month.

This is my favorite pizza place in Austin. The crust is thin but fluffy. The sauce has a lot of flavor without being overly salty or sweet. The toppings are fresh and delicious. The beer is excellent. I usually get the Hill Country pizza - so good. And try out the microbrews. The beer is excellent. The only complaint is how busy this place gets. The parking is a nightmare. Try coming at an off time like 3:30 if possible for a less stressful parking experience.

Really cool place with some awesome beer and great food. This place was buzzing on a Friday around lunch time. Lots of people having beers so it's not just the lunch crowd. Big tap list including great options from other breweries, local and national.

I'll say this: all the hype I've been hearing about this place has definitely been well-deserved. The brewer can go ahead and pat himself on the back for a job well done. I REALLY enjoyed the Margherita pizza I had. I'm no foodie, but their ingredients were fresh and very well-combined to deliver a perfect lunch experience.

The only downside: it's LOUD in there. The restaurant was probably only about half-full by the time we were leaving our lunch and I had a hard time hearing the person sitting right next to me. But, I'm willing to brave the volume for the chance to become a regular at my soon-to-be-favorite neighborhood stop.

Me and my best friend came to Austin to get away we are from Northern VA and as soon as we walked in the door we were greeted by one of the best bartenders that had an a while Catherine and Kathleen they let us sample some of the beers on tap and didn't mind that we were very picky. We love this place after just one visit and the pizza is amazing I swear.

Hands down one of the best pizzas I've ever had and I've had a lot of pizza around the U.S. Good beer selection with different styles. I only give it 4 stars because of the service. They can be nice or they can not be nice.

Trying to order lunch was an ordeal because I couldn't see the menu by the register because staff kept ordering me away (social distancing). Speaking to customers as if they are in kindergarten isn't good practice.
But the food is good.

Pinthouse Pizza has a great selection of beer (40+ craft beers including some their own brews), and the pizzas are so awesome. I have been to this place now 5 times and have tried a different pizza selection each time (the Armadillo so far is my favorite). Great atmosphere (at times a bit noisy but that's expected when you have a lot of people there) and the staff are very friendly. Can't wait to try one of the "Off The Map" pies. Yummy!!!

Pizzas are always tasty none of that store bought flavor. Small sized Pizza is enough for one person especially if you splurge a little and get toppings. Decent price if youre trying to watch your budget. A small is not really for two people but if you're a real light eater then you could possibly share a small.

Their beers are great! And they have a good selection of guest taps as well. The name makes it sound like its not really brewery focused, but it is and the beers can definitely stand alone. We only had an appetizer here, but it was great! One of the best pretzels I've ever had and the queso had great flavor as well.

I have been to this location often. They always have a great selection of beers to choose from. The pizza is excellent and always comes out quickly. Happy hour from 5 to 6 means you can get a PHP beer for $2 off regular price! I will continue to visit this place.

If you like beer and pizza, you gotta check out Pinthouse. A modern Austin-y take on a classic brewery atmosphere. From the moment you step in, the open design and the abundant seating areas combine to provide a nice and relaxed environment fit for any occasions.

Their beer selection contains a good number of their own brews as well as many rotating "visitors" from around the nation. I would try one of their custom brew. Their pizza selection is unique but straightforward. Choose from 10 options or build your own. I recommend the Cannonball for meat lovers and the Greenbelt for vegetarians. If you're in the mood for appetizers, try the Beer Mates. The food is not cheap but the portion is generous as well. 2 large pizzas plus 1 or 2 appetizers should comfortably feed 6 adults, along with some drinks of course.

Love this place. If you love IPAs -- put the phone down and go here. If you don't love IPAs here -- go here (they have guest beers and wine, something for everyone). TLDR: go here. Great food and great ethanol.

They have excellent selection of beer on tap, and the food is delicious! It's a very popular hang out and usually you will put up camp next to other friendly patrons. It's a great date night place! Also, you can sit outside with your dog and enjoy your pizza and beer. Nothing better than sharing your favorite pizza place with your favorite pup in tow!

Pinthouse serves the most delicious pizza and a huge rotating selection of beer. Even the pizza crust is too good to leave. This place can get packed, though. To save time, you can order your food at the bar instead of waiting in the two separate food and bar lines. Seems like most people don t know this yet. Make sure you order a pizza roll. They are amazing.

Great beer brewed in house served along with good pizza. This pub / pizza parlor has the feel of downtown without the hassle of finding parking.

Somehow it manages to be hip and kid friendly at the the same time. The IPA was great and I wouldn't hesitate going back.

We came to Pinthouse Pizza and ordered 2 large pizzas and 4 soft drinks. The clerk never said there wasn't any ice. I asked if they could refill the machine and they said it was too close to closing time. I guess the customers aren't that important. The pizza was good but there are other places I can go for pizza.

No indication that they stop serving food at certain times. The place is called Pinthouse Pizza, and at least at 10:06 on Sunday night (they're open until 11) we were told no.

The pizza can be great, but I value my time and if a place has pizza in the title, it should serve pizza while it's open or at least be really specific all over the place that it doesn't.

Good beer selection and $3 pints during the NFL game, nice! Pizza was good too, reasonable portion for the price. Was not too busy when I was there but could see how it might get pretty loud when the place is hopping.

It's all very, very tasty, I'm headed back there now! All of the pizzas we have had have been delicious. Their queso is also very good. During happy hour on weeknights their mainstay brews are half price and I love their brews. Eat month features a special pie; El Fantastico being my favorite so far.

Pizza, Salad (so we feel less guilt), and craft beer.... need anyone say more? PHP s personal pizza and side salad lunch special is a nice option during the week. The no assigned seating and parking is a pain... but the staff, food, and service were great

Go to a pizza place and get a salad?! Yes! Because the Pinthouse salad is delicious: leafy greens, red onions, cranberries, candided walnuts and blue cheese. A small is only $5 and it's a quality salad. Their pizza is great too; the speciality Milano pizza with olive oil, artichokes, kalamata olives and prosciutto is excellent. The seasonal Banh Mi pizza, with pickled veggies, cilantro and sriracha sauce, is my favorite so far! They have their own varities of beer on tap, plus a good selection of local brewer's drafts. I just enjoyed their cask IPA and it was excellent.

I went here for the beer. Their brewer is doing it right. They have an amazing selection of their own beers AND just as good selection of other beers, and most can be taken to-go via growler or crowler. On top of that the pizza is actually amazing and just as good of a draw as the beer.

Great environment, feels like a beer hall, has a unique vibe. Pizza was a medium thick crust, you could tell all the ingredients were fresh. The one thing that was annoying was that you had to pay for marinara sauce on the side. Overall, delicious pizza and fun atmosphere.
