PRIVATEER COAL FIRE PIZZA
NAMED SAN DIEGO'S TOP 25 BEST
Experience why we are different from other pizza restaurants here in San Diego.
Independently owned
We are a local family-owned restaurant using the freshest ingredients and a 100% coal fire oven. All the while serving up cold craft beers and the largest selection of wines in North County.
Whether you sit outside and chill out on our new patio or relax inside, you'll be glad you came -- we offer the best of South Oceanside's blue collar gourmet dining experiences.
FRESH INGREDIENTS & ARTISAN BITES
At the Privateer, we take the ultimate care and pride in each of our menu items. Our gourmet appetizers, salads, soups, specialty dishes, pizza pies and desserts are made from scratch with the freshest ingredients.
We are not your ordinary, cookie-cutter pizza restaurant. We create an imaginative menu of delicious lunch and dinner items in a relaxed, organic dining setting nobody else has in San Diego.
And that's a direct reflection of two South Oceanside locals living their dream of opening a seaside restaurant and doing it their way.
Founders
CHARLIE ANDERSON
I grew up surfing and working at restaurants in Oceanside and eventually took on a life in the action sports industry helping start Dragon Optical and eventually working for TransWorld Media for the last 17 years.
My childhood best friend, Jamey and I had always dreamed of opening our own restaurant in South Oceanside. Fortunately, it's worked out and has blossomed beyond my wildest dreams. This has become... The Privateer Coal Fire Pizza!
JAMEY STONE
Growing up in Oceanside, I developed my surf skills as an aspiring pro surfer, which is where the restaurant culture came into my life.
Charlie, my childhood best friend from the Buccaneer crew, worked in the action sports media industry along with me for 11 years. He shared the same outlook as I did and we would often think about starting our own restaurant together. Fast-forward to 2013, and the dream has become a reality! Charlie and I hooked up and The Privateer was born…
