Paola's Pizza Barn - Sandy

Since I began snowboarding as a kid, we have always made it a point to stop here for a delicious pizza after a fantastic day on the slopes. Each time we've visited, we've never been let down; the pizza has consistently been excellent. I really enjoy the vintage barn atmosphere and the overall ambiance. They also have a bar with some great selections. The wings were fantastic too. If you're traveling between Portland and Mt. Hood, don't miss this hidden gem!

To make it more bearable, we tried to drown the pizza in Ranch dressing for laughs, but we were shocked to find out it cost $2 for each cup! Before coming, I had called to ask if the games upstairs were open again, reminiscing about the fun I had as a kid. They reassured me with descriptions, but we only found a pinball machine and a toy dispenser—hardly the entertainment I expected. Downstairs featured claw machines, which we all know aren’t worth the time or money. We were charged $25, and to top it off, there was no manager on duty to address our concerns. I ended up driving home to feed my kids afterward. I'm not even sure our chickens would be interested in the leftovers. Honestly, I don't understand how this place stays in business; it was completely empty, just like every other time we've visited. I hesitated to post this review on local pages, fearing backlash for giving them another chance despite the ongoing complaints from the community. Instead, I searched for an email and ended up writing my first Yelp review. I also want to mention that the tables were filthy, even though the place was empty. The tablecloths were stained and covered in crumbs—disgusting! I had to clean off the area around my toddler's high chair before we could sit down. And plastic Dixie cups? Really? It’s just details like these that paint a disappointing picture of our experience.

I absolutely LOVE the fireworks and the weekend at Mary’s! The bleu cheese in the fries is just amazing!

Been to Paola's Hundred's of time. 25 plus years.. Great Service.. Good Pizza.. Always a Good go to.. Prime Rib is Awesome.. Can go to Spaghetti as well. Great Staff.. Enjoy..

I've been a customer for 15 years, and the food is just as excellent as ever. Their large pizzas and famous breadsticks are well-known among regulars. The atmosphere is truly unique. I once inquired about closing time, and the staff mentioned that they usually stay open until around 2:00 AM, depending on when people stop coming down from the mountain. I always look forward to my visits after a day of snowboarding on Mount Hood!
