Land O’ Lakes, FL (Restaurant News Release) Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza, the recognized leader in fast-casual artisanal pizza, today announced that it will open its newest Tampa-area location in Land O’ Lakes, Florida, at 18701 State Road 54 Lutz, in the Shoppes at Sunlake Centre, near Starbucks. On Monday, October 16, the restaurant will celebrate its grand opening by offering the first 50 guests in line free pizza for a year.*
The restaurant will also celebrate with a FREE pizza day on Tuesday, October 17, where any guest who arrives between 11:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. will be treated to a free 11-inch pizza of their choice, with no purchase necessary, simply by downloading the Blaze Pizza app.
At more than 2600 square feet, the restaurant offers seating for 50-plus guests inside, and can accommodate nearly 60 on the covered outdoor patio. The hours of operation are 11:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. daily. Please note the restaurant will close at 9:00 p.m. on FREE Pizza Day. This marks the 17th restaurant in Florida for the Millennial Restaurant Group, and 27th total location for the franchise group.
“We could not be more excited to be bringing our fourth area Blaze Pizza location to Land O’ Lakes,” said Michael Ghrist, market leader for Millennial Restaurant Group (MRG). “At Blaze, we are all about offering the highest quality ingredients along with unmatched customer service. We invite everyone out to give us a try next week and we can’t wait to give away free pizza for a year to our first 50 guests.”
Blaze Pizza’s commitment to using fresh sustainable ingredients is only matched by the brand’s dedication to delivering each guest with a unique pizza that truly reflects what they’re craving. Guests can combine more than 45 different options, including ingredients like roasted peppers, artichokes, roasted garlic, and plant-based chorizo, or keep it simple with a classic pepperoni and cheese pizza. With multiple crusts to choose from, including our signature made-from-scratch dough, a gluten-free crust, and cauliflower, Blaze goes to great lengths to provide guests with an experience that meets their lifestyle.
In addition to pizza, Blaze offers build-your-own and specialty salads, cheesy bread, and desserts. The Land O’ Lakes location will offer dine-in and carry-out, as well as a mobile pick-up window for those ordering ahead.
The new location, operated by MRG, is the largest Blaze Pizza franchisee with 27 locations in 3 states. MRG has made giving back to the community a top priority, offering an in-restaurant fundraising program that returns 20% of event proceeds back to local organizations and individuals in need.
