Pizza in the middle of no where! Artys Wood Fired Pizza in Vanceburg, Kentucky. Artys is owned by Roger Jahn and also operated by him and his family. Jahn is a Texas native who moved to Lewis County, Kentucky in 1975. I've never been to Artys but it's all the rave and has great reviews.
Artys is about a 45 minute drive from my town. It is located on the corner of AA Highway and Fairlane Drive (Rt 59) and visually out in the middle of no where. Just driving by I wouldn't have known it was a pizzeria. But aren't those the best places to eat? Yes they are!
Artys is known for its real wood fired brick oven pizza. The brick oven was hand made and the biggest I've seen. The brick oven is measured to be 81 inches in diameter. I will say Artys is a neat place to eat. There is a comfortable and nostalgic vibe when you walk in to Artys.
We ordered the cheese bread for starters. The marinara sauce was the best I've had! Want a drink? Then help yourself inside the huge vault freezer. On the right are many varieties of beer and the soda is on the left. Lou and I ordered and split The Veggie and the Pig In The Garden pizza. Of course we had extra for leftovers. Sweet! The Veggie was full of fresh tasting vegetables and the cheese was so creamy! The Pig In The Garden had sweet ham, bacon, mushrooms, and sweet onions. Not greasy and total perfection! The dough is made from scratch and all home made. There aren't enough words to describe how delicious the taste of fresh baked home made dough is. I've been told they make their own marinara sauce, cheese, and use fresh garden ingredients. I'm sure it is also the love they put into their food that takes it over the top.
By far Artys is the best pizza south of the Ohio River and is definitely worth the drive. Random road trip and craving awesome pizza, I recommend Artys Wood Fired Pizza! You can find them on Facebook, Artys Wood Fired Pizza.
