Blue Pan Pizza

3930 W. 32nd Ave., Denver, CO 80202
(720) 456-7666

If you’re in the West Highlands area, a visit to Blue Pan Pizza is a must! Fan favorites include the Brooklyn Bridge, the Detroit Style, and the Parma Italia. They also have some great gluten-free options! Along with the delicious pizzas you can get some fresh salad and choose from a list of craft beers and wines. The place has a cozy, homely vibe and would be a good spot to unwind and enjoy some comfort food!

Blue Pan is an authentic Detroit pizza place in the West Highlands. Detroit pizza, defined by its rectangular shape, cheesy crust, and sauce going in lines across the surface, is rapidly gaining popularity outside of the Motor City.

The two must-order pies are the Brooklyn Bridge, topped with sauce, mozzarella, ricotta, pepperoni, Italian sausage, chopped garlic, oregano, and pecorino romano, and the 313 (a Detroit area code), prepared with no marinara sauce, ricotta, garlic, mozzarella, salami, calabrian chilis, sweet piquante peppers, basil, arugula, and shaved parmigiano reggiano. You might as well throw in The Good Dog: cheesy garlic bread that’s nothing fancy, but when you’re working with bread, cheese, garlic, and marinara, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel.
