When you’re looking for an ooey, gooey pizza pie, you have plenty of options in Oregon, but there’s one little restaurant with a rock and roll theme that will take you right back to the 1960s. Check out Kaleidoscope Pizzeria & Pub:
Kaleidoscope Pizzeria & Pub opened its doors back in 2004, and it's been a local favorite in Medford ever since.
You'll find this place at 3084 Crater Lake Hwy., Medford, Oregon.
Walk through the front doors to find a mix of vintage and modern. The dining room's bright, airy space and vaulted ceilings are welcoming, and its Grateful Dead-inspired artwork will take you right back to the 60s.
You'll find tons of posters from the 60s and 70s lining the walls that just might make you nostalgic for your childhood or teen years.
There's a huge mural near the ceiling that features the Grateful Dead. If you're a Deadhead (or always wanted to be one), you'll love this decor.
The theme is carried throughout the restaurant, including its menu, which includes the Jerry's Italian Sausage pizza in honor of Jerry Garcia, and "Grateful Deals," which are menu items offered at special prices Monday through Thursday from 3-5 p.m.
You'll even find homages to the band out in the garden - there's a metal sculpture for each band member.
The other thing covering the walls of this pizzeria? Awards! Kaleidoscope is constantly scooping up Readers' Choice awards.
Of course, the groovy decor and multiple awards are just the beginning. The pizza is absolutely delicious! It's a thin-crust pie, with tons of fresh toppings, and it's baked to perfection.
You'll want to get an order of the garlic knots, too. They just about melt in your mouth.
What pairs perfectly with pizza? Beer, of course, and Kaleidoscope has plenty on tap, including their very own IPA and Amber Ale.
It would be a shame to skip dessert here. Share a slice of grasshopper pie, or try the homemade cheesecake, carrot cake, or mud pie.
Visit Kaleidoscope Pizzeria & Pub seven days a week! It's open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m, and stays open until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights.
Visit Kaleidoscope Pizzeria & Pub’s website to see the full menu, and follow the restaurant’s Facebook page to see what’s new there.
