The Scoop
The Heart Of Our Restaurant
The road from Naples, Italy was not quick or easy but, here is a genuine Acunto oven. The Acunto family has set the standard for pizza ovens for almost as long as the Margherita pizza has existed. We're so proud to be able to serve you pizzas out of this work of art!
Our Story
We started an all-organic, sourdough pizza pop-up at a local wine bar in Sandpoint, ID in 2020 - Panhandle Pizza Kitchen. The events quickly grew in popularity and enough demand rose for a brick and mortar location. After years of planning and figuring out how to source the best possible ingredients we're nearly ready to open The Forge Artisan Pizza. Construction should be done in Spring of 2024!
Our Food
OUR PIZZAS AND BREADS ARE ALL NATURALLY LEAVENED "SOURDOUGH". WE USE ORGANIC FLOUR FROM A SMALL, FAMILY-RUN MILL JUST OUTSIDE OF ROME, ITALY FOR OUR WOOD-FIRED PIZZA. OUR BREADS & DETROIT-STYLE PIZZAS ARE MADE WITH LOCAL, ORGANIC WHOLE WHEAT AND AN AMAZING NON-GMO FLOUR GROWN BY A LOCAL, REGENERATIVE FARM. WE TRY HARD TO SOURCE THE BEST QUALITY MEAT PRODUCTS WE CAN; PASTURE RAISED (WHEN AVAILABLE) AND HORMONE/STEROID FREE. WE ALSO USE AS MUCH ORGANIC PRODUCE AS POSSIBLE. GLUTEN-FREE & VEGAN OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE TOO
Our Location
We're at 306 Pine St. between 3rd and 4th in downtown Sandpoint, ID. It took a long time to find our location and then an entire year to build it!
Parking
The public parking lot is only 1 block away. There is also street parking across the street from the restaurant.
Something to look forward to...
