In April we celebrated two major milestones- Martin’s 20th Anniversary and Darren’s 15th! 🤩

Martin joined our Oakland and Berkeley kitchen team in 2006, before transferring to San Ramon and eventually making the move with us to Pleasanton in 2021. A true rock in the kitchen, Martin brings serious expertise to every shift. Just as important, he keeps things running smooth with his calm, cool, collected vibe when it matters most.

Darren joined our San Ramon kitchen team back in 2011 and stepped into management in 2018. He’s helped lead our teams in Pleasant Hill and Pleasanton, and most recently he helped with the opening of Zachary’s Livermore. Darren brings hard work and dedication to our team, with just a little bit of mischief mixed in 😉

Congrats to both Martin and Darren on major milestones with us! We can’t imagine our team without them and are so grateful for their 35 combined years of dedication, hard work, and true pizza grit ❤️🥂

This Valentine’s Day, we’re bringing back the love with heart shaped pizzas. Crispy, cheesy, and baked fresh to order, our heart-shaped pizzas are made with a little extra love for the sweetest (and most delicious) way to show you care. However you celebrate love (romantic, friendly, furbally, self-love) our heart-shaped pies are made to share- or not!  After all, nothing says “I love you” quite like pizza…and nothing says “I love me” like keeping the last slice for yourself 😉

Call to place a delay order for your heart-shaped pizza today or dine-in with us on Valentine’s Day!

Heart-shaped pizzas will be available exclusively on Valentine’s Day and while supplies last. Heart-shaped pizzas will be thin crust only and medium sized. They will be available for both dine-in and takeout and as fully baked or half-baked pizzas. Since these are special order pizzas, there is no half-and-half option and heart-shaped pizzas are not available via third-party delivery companies.

Come one, come all- Zachary’s Livermore is officially open for business!

We’re so excited for our doors to be officially open and able to welcome our Livermore community in. While we still get settled into our space, we’ll be open for dinner only. Don’t worry though, we hope to open for lunch in the near future! For now come and dine-in with us, order takeout, or get delivery via Uber or GrubHub.

We also have a full bar and brand new curated Signature Cocktail menu! Take advantage of our new drinks during our Happy Hour and Late Night Specials that include drink specials and small bites.

Happy Hour: Monday – Friday 4-5:30pm
Late Night: Sunday – Thursday 8:30-9:30pm, Friday & Saturday 9-10pm.
Drink specials include $11 Signature Cocktails, $7 Draft Beer, and $8 glasses of wine, plus small bite options.

Come see us, Livermore! 😍

The Super Bowl is coming. Do you have your pizza spread planned for the big day?

To avoid the weekend rush, we recommend ordering half-baked pizzas and picking them up Thursday or Friday. They last up to 4 days in the fridge and come with easy-to-follow instructions. That means you get to skip the pre-game rush on Sunday! If you are planning on picking up fully baked pizzas, call and place your delay orders now for Sunday. We anticipate some time slots filling up, so placing your orders now help ensure your preferred pick up time.

LIVERMORE! We’ll be open special hours on Sunday from 11am-4pm so you can pickup pizzas for the game. We’ll also be open for dine in as well. We’ll return to our normal soft opening hours of 4pm-9:30pm on Monday, February 9th.
