No pizza next week!!!!!!!!! 

Your favorite bakers will be taking a much need vacation next week. We will be at the market on the square and the westside community market as usual this Saturday, but we will not be at either market on Saturday, July 8, and there will be no pizza next Wednesday, July 5!!!

We will be closed on Wednesday, July 5, no pizza that night!!!!

June 28!  Pizza!  On the farm!

Cress Spring Pizzeria will be serving them up on Wednesday, June 28, from 4:30 pm until 8:30 pm. 

Folks, I’m not gonna lie, it’s been busy out here! When the weather is good, we’ve been having huge crowds and long wait times. For us, this is a good problem to have, but it can lead to some frustration for customers. Accepting phone orders has helped reduce the amount of time spent waiting in line to order, but on a busy night, it can still be a long wait to get pizza. We have a large crew working as fast as we can, but there are no magic elves here. Each pie is made by hand by a live human, and must pass through our flaming hot oven. We can bake about 60 pizzas an hour, and the oven is the bottleneck...working harder or adding more staff won't change that. That means that on a night when we sell 300 pies, some of them will be coming out after 9:30pm. We encourage people to come on nights when the weather isn't perfect, or to come as early as you can, but if it’s a beautiful sunny day, you can expect a large crowd and a long wait. Bring some snacks, kick back on the lawn, and enjoy the music while you wait.

We feature live music every Wednesday, and this week we welcome the Lakeview Ramblers, playing old-time string music that will have you dancing on the lawn. 

Lakeview Ramblers

On the beer front, the Hazy IIPA from Untitled Art sold out quickly last week and we can’t get any more, but we are adding their Coffee Stout to the menu this week. 

Here’s how it works. Every Wednesday evening from May until October, we'll be selling flaming hot pizzas and delicious desserts, beer and wine, here at Cress Spring Farm. Picnic on our lawn or take your pizza to enjoy at home. Outdoor seating only - you are welcome to bring blankets, lawn chairs, and warm friends to snuggle with. You should also bring whatever plates, cutlery, etc. that you might need for your picnic. Pizza will be served in boxes, beer and soda in bottles and wine by the bottle or glass. We will have mason jars available for wine, but we encourage you to bring your own. You may supplement your picnic with any salads or other food you wish to bring, but we ask that you not bring your own alcohol. We accept cash, checks, credit cards, and chickens as payment. 

Our menu for this week is below, and it's also posted on our Facebook page.

We hope to see you soon!

June 21!  Pizza!  On the farm!

Cress Spring Pizzeria will be serving them up on Wednesday, June 21, from 4:30 pm until 8:30 pm.

After posting that we accept phone orders on facebook last week, we were suddenly swamped with phone orders on Wednesday, which created a bit of chaos for everybody. We’ll be revising some our systems to better accommodate this, so phone orders are still welcome, but keep in mind that on busy nights we will not accept phone orders after 5:00. We will also be spacing order times out a bit so that we don’t get a ton of orders for 6:00 pickup. This means that the earlier in the day that you call in your order, the more likely you are to get your preferred time. 

For our musical guests this week this week, we’re very excited to welcome the The North Country Drifters, performing the repertoire of classic country and western swing groups from the 30's, 40's and 50's. Some of the artists they cover include Jimmie Rodgers, Bob Wills, Milton Brown, Ernest Tubb, Willie Nelson, Lefty Frizell, Ray Price, and Speedy West. This was one of our favorite bands last year. Come and get your Texas two-step on!

North Country Drifters

On the beer menu this week, we are featuring a special Hazy IIPA from Untitled Art, the up and coming collaboration between Octopi Brewing (Waunakee) and Funk Factory Geuzeria (Madison). A delicious New England-style double IPA with refreshing citrus aromatics and a bold, yet smooth, hop finish, this is a very limited release, so get it while you can! 

Here’s how it works. Every Wednesday evening from May until October, we'll be selling flaming hot pizzas and delicious desserts, beer and wine, here at Cress Spring Farm. Picnic on our lawn or take your pizza to enjoy at home. Outdoor seating only - you are welcome to bring blankets, lawn chairs, and warm friends to snuggle with.

June 14!  Pizza!  On the farm!

Cress Spring Pizzeria will be serving them up on Wednesday, June 14, from 4:30 pm until 8:30 pm. 

If you’ve been out here in the last couple weeks, you know we can get pretty busy with some long wait times. If you want to skip the long line, we happily accept phone orders before we start serving. Just give us a call and let us know when you want your pizza ready for pickup. You can call anytime on Wednesdays, but on busy nights we often do not accept phone orders after 5:00, so earlier is better. 

Bring the kids!

For our musical guest this week, we’re excited to welcome Nashville recording artist Kirstie Kraus of the band Thirsty Jones. Performing as an acoustic duo, Kirstie will bring her dynamic voice and high energy brand of country music out to the country.
