Craft 64 has earned the No. 29 spot in the 50 Top Pizza 2026 list, an international ranking of pizzerias.
The Arizona-based restaurant was the highest-ranked pizzeria in the state and was also named the top pizza restaurant in Arizona. The recognition marks the sixth consecutive year Craft 64 has appeared on the list, according to a press release.
50 Top Pizza is an annual online guide that evaluates pizzerias globally without preference for style, focusing on ingredient quality, preparation and overall dining experience.
The guide’s selection process includes anonymous inspections and considers factors such as food quality, service, atmosphere, cleanliness and beverage offerings. Evaluations are intended to reflect a typical guest experience.
Craft 64 was recognized during an awards ceremony on May 27, 2026, in New York City at the Fashion Institute of Technology’s Morris W. and Fannie B. Haft Theater.
“Being recognized for six consecutive years is an incredible honor and a testament to our team’s dedication to quality and hospitality,” said James Swann, co-owner of Craft 64. “This recognition reflects our standard for only using the best ingredients, making everything from scratch, and creating an experience that resonates with every guest who walks through our doors.”
The restaurant operates locations in Scottsdale and Chandler.
