Welcome to Ouray’s Pizza Spot

Ouray is often called the “Switzerland of America” because of its mountain views and small-town charm. Visitors come here to hike, climb, relax in the hot springs, or enjoy the historic downtown. After a day of exploring, most people want a meal that is filling, warm, and easy to share. That is when pizza becomes the perfect choice.

If you are searching for the best pizza in Ouray, look no further than Mineshaft Restaurant and Pizzeria. Locals love it, visitors return year after year, and the menu has something for everyone.

 

Why Pizza Hits the Spot in Ouray

There is something about the mountain air that makes pizza taste even better. Maybe it is the big portions after a long hike, or maybe it is the joy of sitting down with family and friends in a cozy spot. Pizza is comfort food, and in a place like Ouray, comfort is part of the experience.

At Mineshaft, pizza is more than just another menu item. It is the heart of what we do.
