It’s been a minute since we’ve caught up on our Flour + Water happenings. We blame January for freezing our brains, but this is also what happens when you decide to open a new restaurant three weeks into the year. Yes, friends, we really went for it this Jan, bringing Flour + Water Pizza Shop to Oakland for our first-ever East Bay restaurant.
It’s been incredible to join Oakland’s Northlake neighborhood with our Pizza Shop on the street level of The Lark Uptown. You can find us and all our pizzas, mozz sticks, Double8 Dairy soft-serve, and Lambrusco slushies on the corner of 24th and Waverly Street. You can also find us across the street caffeinating at Highwire Coffee and refueling with pastries from Tarts de Feybesse. This is the part where we mention we have the best, best neighbors.
Beyond the new restaurant, we’re continuing to ramp up our frozen pizza production at our Flour + Water Pizzeria flagship in North Beach. In a true pinch us moment, our frozen ‘za has hit the freezer section in the iconic Berkeley Bowl. We’ve added pizza to the store locator on this site, so you can now easily find a location near you that stocks our pies. While we’re still only distributing within the Bay Area, we hope to grow outside our backyard in the near future! Keep an eye on our Foods’ newsletter for all the frozen news you can use.
We have so much more in store for 2026 – both in Foods’ land and at our restaurants. For our pasta + pizza pals outside the Bay Area, we *may* be showing up in your city soon too. First up? Los Angeles to participate in Pizza City Fest on Saturday, April 25 for a demo called “The Pizza Principle: A Home Baker’s Masterclass.” We’ll be covering the tricks + tricks for making exceptional pizza sans fancy restaurant oven alongside moderator and SFGate Los Angeles Food Editor extraordinaire, Karen Palmer.
