Big Bear Pizzeria & Deli

Big Bear Pizzeria & Deli Family fun, deli sandwiches, yummy ice cream, and most importantly: pizza, pizza, and more pizza! Just like that, Big Bear Pizzeria & Deli was born.

Two things in life can always make people smile -- good food and good company. So when the dream opportunity came to incorporate both in our very own family restaurant, we didn’t hesitate. On the banks of Lake Pepin, located right on the harbor, we’ve been serving the Lake City community with delicious meals in a fun, relaxed area for all to enjoy since ‘96. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick

breakfast, watching your pizza creation come to life in our open kitchen, or spending a leisurely afternoon in our courtyard, we’re here to make sure every moment is memorable.

To our community and valued guests

Our team works incredibly hard every single day to serve you, but we want to make our standards very clear. Our staff deserves to be treated with patience, kindness, and basic respect.

During busy dinner rushes, especially when big unexpected orders come in or equipment acts up; our crew is constantly juggling every station, from taking orders and dipping ice cream to running the ovens and prepping dough. They are working as fast and as hard as humanly possible to get your food to you.

We understand that wait times during busy hours can be frustrating, but taking that frustration out on our team is never acceptable. Yelling at our staff, giving them attitude, or tossing items at them across the counter crosses a line.

Our employees are the heart of what we do. They are human beings working hard to feed this community, and we will always stand up for their right to a safe, respectful workplace.

To the vast majority of our customers who show up with patience, warm smiles, and understanding when we're running fast, thank you! You make the hard days worth it, and we appreciate you more than you know.

Thank you

Ben, Nicole, Alex

​Available Friday through Sunday (or until sold out!).

​Available in Large size only! ​These are for call-in orders only (you won't find them on our online ordering site). ​Stock is limited for the weekend, so don't wait too long to claim yours. Give us a buzz and we'll get your order rolling!

THE VOTES ARE IN... Stuffed Crust is here to stay! 🐻🍕🧀

We asked, and you answered loud and clear! Our recent test run was a massive hit, and the "KEEP IT" votes won by a landslide.

You officially voted the Large Stuffed Crust onto the Big Bear menu!

Because freezer space is tight and we can only stock a limited amount at a time, we are making this an exclusive WEEKEND SPECIAL while supplies last.

Starting every Friday through Sunday, you can upgrade any of your favorite Large pizzas to a Stuffed Crust for just +$2.

Thank you to everyone who voted and helped us make the call. See you this weekend for some serious cheese!
