Saddle up, partners, the Zachary’s Western rides into our Pleasant Hill and Pleasanton locations today!

It ain’t no balderdash, this buckeroo is the real deal. Mosey on over to Zachary’s in Pleasant Hill or Pleasanton and rope you one of these rascals before it rides off into the sunset…

The Zachary’s Western is available stuffed or thin-crust, but only for a limited time! Click your preferred location below to order online for takeout or delivery.

Holiday Special Hours!

The holidays are fully upon us! Do you have family coming into town? Are you going out of town to visit family or friends? Are we included in your holiday festivities? We hope so. It’s our favorite part of this time of the year!

We will be closed on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day. That means if we do get to share special moments with you on those days, be sure to pick up half-baked pizzas the days leading up to finish baking at home. They last up to 4 days in the refrigerator, which means you can get them days in advance and avoid the last minute crowds.

We’ll be open normal hours at all locations on New Year’s Eve. Happy Holidays!

We’ll be Closed on Thanksgiving

We’ll be closed on Thanksgiving. If you are planning to feature pizza as the center piece of your table this year (or a side dish, or as breakfast ????), be sure to order and pick up half-bakes the days leading up to the holiday. Just pull them out of the refrigerator an hour before you want to bake them, and voila! Delicious, fresh pizza is served. Easy-to-follow directions are included with our half-bakes.

Looking for a recommendation on what to order? We recommend the Butternut Squash Pizza! Butternut squash, red onions, spinach, with goat cheese and mozzarella. Available stuffed or thin. For the meat lovers, it’s equally delicious with sausage or bacon added!

We’ll be open our normal hours at all locations on Friday.

September Employee-Owner Milestones!

September was a big month to celebrate three of our employee-owners!

September 3rd we celebrated Sergio’s 30 year anniversary with Zachary’s! Sergio works predominately at our Rockridge and North Berkeley locations, occasionally popping over to Zachary’s on Grand Ave as well. He’s pictured along side of Chodon, who you might recognize from last month when she celebrated her own 20 year milestone.

Hignio, who you can find at Zachary’s Grand Lake, celebrated 20 years with us on September 23rd. Originally hired for Rockridge and Solano, he is one of our core kitchen members at Grand Lake. Last, but certainly not least, Antonio B rung in 15 years on September 27th! Antonio was originally hired in 2006 for our San Ramon location (alongside Frank and Antonio G from last month!). You can now find him making your delicious pizzas at the newest Zachary’s in Downtown Pleasanton.

Congratulations to these three amazing employee-owners who, quite literally, help hold us down across the Bay  ❤  Most importantly, a HUGE thank you for their combined 65 years of dedication and commitment to excellence!
