You are cordially invited to visit Transfer Pizzeria Café, located in the Harbor District on the corner of 1st and Mitchell Streets. Established in 2008, the namesake is Transfer Pharmacy, a classic cornerstone drugstore from a bygone era that for decades supplied a thriving community with goods and services as evidenced by the stained glass windows still in place. The pharmacy was appropriately named for the constant activity that took place just outside - the boarding, departures, and transfers of the countless daily commuters of the time. The tradition of a reliable cornerstone establishment continues today, as Transfer Pizzeria delivers a unique dose of delicious pizza, drink, atmosphere, and friendly service.

We keep an active wait-list and gladly accommodate walk-ins as part of both our lunch and dinner service.

    Perfect place for a hip night out, especially when Cameron Webb is on the stage and Eric is behind the bar.

    The pizzas here are very tasty. The wine selection and quality is not that great but they have beers and cocktails too. We came there to listen to some jazz and eat good pizzas and that was awesome!

    The food atmosphere was everything we'd come to expect. It had been a while since I was last here and they haven't missed a beat. :)

    The pizza, staff, and live music was phenomenal at Transfer Pizza. I had the pizza of the month and wished I would’ve ordered the larger size to have leftovers. The staff were engaging and thoughtful. The tiramisu was a great treat at the end of my meal.
