The main reason APD is popular is that it is open so late. The pizza and food is pretty darn good, but not the best.
I have eaten there four times now, and each time I have called in a takeout order and they tell me when to come in. Well, when I am told to come in ten minutes and I do so, only to wait over a half hour more for my food with no apology, it gets old fast. The food is never ready when they say, so go do your grocery shopping and pick up your food that will be ready in "five minutes" in a half hour.
If you know to do that, then the place is really very good.
The chef salad is excellent, full of meat (I buy a head of extra lettuce to add, you wouldn't believe how much extra lettuce you want to add to this!), and the all meat pizza is way too salty and greasy and I would never order it again despite loving meaty pizzas. There is a good selectiopn of sandwiches, have one on a brio roll. |

APD is an amazing place. Basically, no matter what you order there, you're going to get a whole lot of food, and it's going to be very good.
Truly deserving of 5 stars. Indeed, this restaurant is the best of its kind that I have eaten at, and the food is the best of its kind that I have tasted. |

Well, APD is one of those Arcata standbys that every poor food deprived sap in the North Coast has frequented at one time or another. Their hours are perhaps the best part of the experience, as the rest of the town closes at 8:00, while APD is open well past midnight on most nights.
But then...oh. Then you have the food. Food is hit or miss at APD, and when you hit, it's really more of a solid tap - nothing spectacular, but it'll fill you up. The misses, on the other hand, are off by a mile. Don't ever order their sausage pizza or you'll be greeted by a large grease laden excuse for a pizza with pounds of sliced Kielbasa dropped on top post-baking. The main thing that APD's food has in its favor is the sheer mass of it. Their calzone, essentially a gigantic cheese pie, is enough to feed, if not an army, a small guerilla force bent on taking over this little hippy town. Their pizza is flat, limp, and soaked in grease; your paper plate will be inevitably stained yellow.
That said, if you've spent the day doing something physically exerting, APD can be just the ticket. A whopping quantity of food can be obtained for a price that, while far from cheap, is palatable under the right circumstances. |

Big portions & decent prices. Great place to run into people. Good beer. Prompt, friendly staff. Clean bathrooms. It can get extremely crowded - it's one of the few places open late at night - but it's usually pretty quiet during the day. |

Arcata Pizza and Deli - referred to by locals simply as APD....so yummy. Large portions, especially the sandwiches....oh my I'm hungry just thinking about it. Three people can share an order of fries, service is great. Can be difficult to get a seat, so if with others, have one guard an area while others order. |
