Swing down to former gold camp, which lives on through Miner Street’s well-preserved buildings. Bring your appetite to the original Beau Jo’s for deep-dish Colorado-style pizza .

I'm a local and come here on way up to Copper; get the Dude Ranch wheat crust every single time. So good. Of course, don't forget about the crust and honey combo...delish...

Tammy

AWESOME! Best pizza I've ever had..... The crust is amazing, crisp but chewy on the inside- not greasy. Got the Mama Mia... The basil added such a flavorful kick to the pizza . Go here!

I add a lot of chili flakes in my pizza ???? because I like the spicy addition.Highlands chicken is great ???? anything with pepperoni/jalapenos is awesome.
