With a menu created by Chef Steven Ewing, diners at Community Taps & Pizza will enjoy an assortment of traditional and globally-inspired pizzas that pay tribute to pizza metropolises such as Brooklyn, Detroit, and our very own here in Vancouver. Gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options will be available, along with an assortment of unique housemade dips to pair alongside the pies. Pizzas are cooked to perfection with dough fermented for 72 hours and baked in a pizza oven specially imported from Europe. 

A large selection of appetizers will include locally sourced meatballs, cauliflower fritters, and wings. Salads, meatballs, fresh pasta, and handhelds will round out the menu. Putting a spin on the classic chicken parmesan offerings, Chef Ewing has put together various sandwich options to choose from, including traditional, spicy, and vodka sauce.

Community Taps & Pizza’s beverage menu includes over 40 beer taps that have been carefully curated with a selection of local and seasonal brews. In addition, the restaurant-pub’s wine program will shine a light on B.C. wineries with eight wines on tap. Guests also have access to the Community Beer & Wine to-go fridge, an ideal option for The Drive community to enjoy beyond dining-in.
