Fast casual pizza trailblazer opens newest location near Baylor University April 5
Picky pizza lovers in Waco are in luck!
Pie Five Pizza Co. – the fast casual restaurant known for its customizable pizzas prepared and ready to enjoy in five minutes or less – is making its Waco debut on Wednesday, April 5. The new restaurant is located at 720 S. 5th St., near Baylor University and Magnolia Market.
Open every day from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Pie Five is the perfect location for busy families, active professionals and, of course, Baylor Bears looking for a fast and delicious meal handcrafted from fresh, hand-cut veggies and artisan toppings.
The Waco restaurant will be the third Pie Five for franchisees Chirag Patel and Sudesh Patidar, who currently own popular locations in Georgetown and Pflugerville.
“Waco is such a great town and it’s been growing like crazy, but they still don’t have a pizza concept like Pie Five,” said Patel. “We’re excited to bring our fresh, made-to-order pizzas to the area and we look forward to welcoming local residents, as well as Baylor students, faculty and employees, to our beautiful new restaurant.”
In celebration of its grand opening, Pie Five is donating 50% of proceeds from pre-opening events on April 2 and 3 to Communities in Schools of the Heart of Texas, a Waco-based non-profit whose mission is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.
Pie Five’s fast casual concept allows guests to completely customize their own personal pizza from a selection of more than 40 fresh toppings, seven savory sauces and four made-from-scratch crusts. Pie Five also offers guests 10 signature pizzas, all taste-tested to perfection by the inventor of stuffed-crust pizza herself, Patty Scheibmeir, Vice President of R&D and Product Innovations. Complement each meal with a freshly tossed side salad or basket of warm, cheesy Breadstix!
