The Zachary’s Western Special Rides Back Into Pleasant Hill & Pleasanton!

A slice of deep dish pizza with a thick layer of cheese being lifted from a pan. The cheese stretches in long, gooey strands, with rich tomato sauce and browned bits on top. The setting appears to be an outdoor dining area.

 

Saddle up, partners, the Zachary’s Western rides into our Pleasant Hill and Pleasanton locations today! This bucking bronco of a pizza is a delicious combination of Italian sausage, onions, crumbled bacon, and mozzarella, all topped with a swirl of smoky-sweet barbecue sauce. 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.

Celebrating Mon’s 5th Anniversary during Employee-Ownership Month!

Celebrating Employee-Owner Mon during Employee Ownership Month!

Not only are we celebrating employee-owner Mon’s first milestone anniversary (5 years!) in October, it’s also Employee-Ownership Month (EOM)! That’s two super great reasons to celebrate

Mon was hired during EOM on October 17, 2016. If you’re a regular at our Pleasant Hill location, you may recognize her from serving up yummy pizzas in our dining room or helping customers at our front counter. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mon for all your hard work and abundant personality over the past 5 years! We appreciate it and especially you!  
Zachary’s became an 100% employee-owned ESOP in 2010, but the process began in 2006. That means we’re celebrating 15 years of employee-ownership and 11 years of being 100% employee-owned! To learn more about our journey to employee-ownership click HERE.
