Papa Murphy's - Woodburn

Compliments to the cook Francisco, which really made my pizza look like a masterpiece. He greeted us and was very personal while he helped us decide on a pizza. He took up my allergy and went beyond and beyond to keep cross-contamination to a minimum. I was in a couple of Papa-Murphys and this place was by far the best thanks to the staff on hand.

I never had an order, and my orders were all made on time, ready for me to pick up when I was there. I worked for a few years in the pizza industry. I made a lot of pizzas, and I spent time in front of some ovens. Dad! Murphy's is not so much a restaurant, in a way, as they do not serve fully prepared food. They are more a kitchen with a very specific appetizer. It's nice for me to get an uncooked pizza, because I can cook it exactly as I want (often on a tray grill, for some wooden fire smoke flavor), and I can distribute toppings to cook even more if necessary. Most pizzas I bought from here were well prepared by having a few layered toppings that needed remaneuvering, and the toppings were generous.

Yes, it is a chain; yes, it's a franchise, but the Woodburn site always seems to just go a bit beyond and beyond to make sure that things are right. High value, high quality, friendly staff. Pizza heaven.

Throw in town and this place is great. They always treat you with respect and joyful. Order online and then pick up. Orders are made quickly.

The place does what it is supposed to. Inexpensive and tasty. They quickly fix any mistakes and are very nice. I do wish that there was an option where they'd cook it for you for a couple extra bucks. Moved away to Georgia for a couple years and actually missed the idea of a take and bake pizza joint. Glad I'm back to the West coast again!
