Timber Pizza Company
Your (dream) neighborhood pizza joint.
GO HERE: for blistered, bubbly, farmers’-market-produce-laden pizzas fresh from the ripping hot wood-burning oven. What began as a roving food truck is now a fixture of D.C.’s Petworth scene, with Argentine chef Daniela Moreira at the helm.
ORDER THE: Green Monster pie (fresh mozz and green things in season, such as zucchini and kale); the Julia (a salad’s worth of snow peas, asparagus, and pea-shoot pesto on a white pie); or, if you’re feeling more classic, the Pretty in Pepperoni (which still gets a bit of green, thanks to fresh basil). There’s one dessert—a gelato sundae topped with wood-fired cones—and, yes, you want it.
SHARING ECONOMY: Order your pizza “half-and-half” so you can try double the toppings.
THE VIBE IS: chill, laid-back, casual—the type of place you can drop into for a bite or hang all night at one of the communal tables, drinking red wine on tap or growlers of local 3 Stars IPA.
GETTING IN: isn’t as crazy as at some other D.C. cult favorites; there’s typically not a line, and seats turn over quickly. (Unless you hoard yours.)
