You are cordially invited to visit Transfer Pizzeria Café, located in the Harbor District on the corner of 1st and Mitchell Streets. Established in 2008, the namesake is Transfer Pharmacy, a classic cornerstone drugstore from a bygone era that for decades supplied a thriving community with goods and services as evidenced by the stained glass windows still in place. The pharmacy was appropriately named for the constant activity that took place just outside - the boarding, departures, and transfers of the countless daily commuters of the time. The tradition of a reliable cornerstone establishment continues today, as Transfer Pizzeria delivers a unique dose of delicious pizza, drink, atmosphere, and friendly service. We keep an active wait-list and gladly accommodate walk-ins as part of both our lunch and dinner service.

    First visit; will definitely go back! Had the Pink Brunch special-it was delicious and actually took a dish of my main home and it is enough for two more meals ( I do eat light) Coffee excellent and my alcohol free Bloody Mary was spicy and flavorful. Desserts was churros with chocolate sauce almost as yummy as the ambiance/loved the pink curtains and all the Spanish touches and the pink cheetah! All servers were very warm and polite.

    For the price you pay, the service of EVERY hostess and WAIT STAFF needs evaluating. Some are extremely kind, quick to respond and attentive, others unattentive, Luke warm, and slow. Would love to experience consistency of service because I love dining in place..

    This restaurant is very quaint, with a wonderful ambiance. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and food. We were here for Valentine's Day and had a great experience. I can't compliment the food enough! My husband and I ordered all different food and everything was exceptional! We would not hesitate to come here again. If you love good food, and being treated special while you're eating it, this is your place!

    This was our second visit . The first was a disaster, but it was very soon after they opened. Tonight, it was outstanding. We had the burrata salad, very unusual but really excellent. The addition of the oranges with the bitter arugula was very tasty. The entrees were excellent, we had the veal and halibut. And the chocolate pana cotta was perfect ending.
