Pizza Bear Cafe specializes in Detroit-style square pizza, still relatively uncommon in Taiwan. Thick sourdough crust, cheese and square corners form its foundation. Flavors range from pepperoni and Buffalo chicken to Tai-waiian with Hakka salted pork and pineapple, with Hazelnut Chocolate for dessert. It does more than make pizza square: the relationship between crust, cheese and toppings gives it a clear personality.
● Peppa Pig Pepperoni
This is a classic American starting point. Beef-and-pork pepperoni has clear savory flavor alongside cheese and tomato sauce, direct without becoming muddled. The Detroit-style square crust is the heart of each piece: crisp outside, thick and springy inside. You feel the substance of the dough with each bite; the toppings are not left to do all the work.
● Buffalo Chicken
Chicken breast meets homemade Buffalo sauce and chili, with a clear burst of spice and heat that is not recklessly tongue-numbing. The thick crust supports the sauce and chicken. First comes the crisp aroma of the edge, then the kick of Buffalo sauce. More assertive than pepperoni, it suits anyone who wants spicy fragrance without a complicated order.
● Tai-waiian
Pineapple and Hakka salted pork share the pizza, and the name makes the Taiwan-meets-Hawaiian idea clear. The pork has an even balance of fat and lean, providing savory flavor and meaty texture. Pineapple cuts through the weight with acidity, sweetness and juice. The two work together, giving each bite a sweet-savory turn. This flavor best expresses the shop's Taiwanese-American personality.
● Hazelnut Chocolate
This turns pizza into dessert. Hazelnut chocolate spread has clear sweet fragrance, with chopped nuts for crunch. The cheese's slight saltiness is not lost beneath the sweetness; it creates a balance that feels like American dessert indulgence in a thick pizza crust. After pepperoni, spicy chicken or salted pork, a small shared piece is more fitting than tackling the whole pizza alone.
Start with Peppa Pig Pepperoni to get to know the crust and cheese, then choose Buffalo Chicken or Tai-waiian for more personality. Hazelnut Chocolate works well shared at the end. If everyone prefers savory food, refreshing drinks help keep the richness of the cheese from wearing you out.

📌 Editor's Wrap-up
Pizza Bear Cafe gets its substance from thick crust and cheese, and its memorable character from unapologetic flavors. Pepperoni is classic, chicken brings heat, Tai-waiian shows Taiwanese creativity and Hazelnut Chocolate makes pizza dessert. The shop is small; the pizzas' personalities are not. Bring someone willing to share—it is more fun than stubbornly taking on one flavor alone.
