Pie Five Pizza Co. Shakes Things Up in Chi-Town
The fast casual pizza innovator opens in Rolling Meadows

DALLAS, Sept. 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Pie Five Pizza Co., the fast casual trailblazer known for its artisan, chef-inspired pizzas, is blowing into the Chicago area with its newest restaurant opening on Thursday, September 29, in Rolling Meadows. Located at 1219 W. Golf Road Rolling Meadows, only 10 minutes away from the Woodfield Mall, Pie Five is the only place where guests can customize their own pizza with unlimited toppings and receive it hot out of the oven and ready to eat in just 140 seconds. The new location will also be one of the first Pie Five restaurants in the country to feature the newly redesigned interior.      

The Rolling Meadows restaurant marks Pie Five franchisee Carl Dissette's second Pie Five location in Chicago and fifth Pie Five location overall. The fast casual pizza craze is no surprise to Dissette, one of the original franchisees of Jimmy John's more than 20 years ago, and he predicts that its popularity will continue to grow in the next few years.

"Even here in deep dish territory, guests have told us that they love Pie Five's unique and innovative approach to making pizza," said Dissette. "With Pie Five's wide selection of fresh ingredients and unlimited pizza combinations, we're enthusiastic that Rolling Meadows residents will love what we offer!" 

Always looking for ways to give back to the communities it serves, Pie Five will donate 50 percent of the proceeds from the Rolling Meadows pre-opening events on September 27 and 28 to Clearbrook, an organization dedicated to providing services and job opportunities to people living with disabilities.

Pie Five's fast casual approach allows guests to customize their own personal pizza in just under two minutes. With a selection of more than 28 fresh toppings, seven savory sauces and four made-from-scratch crusts, Pie Five offers hundreds of flavor combinations sure to please even the pickiest eaters. Pie Five also offers gluten free crust and vegan cheese, so no one has to miss out on a delicious pie. A crisp, hand-tossed salad or mouthwatering ultimate brownie is the perfect addition to any meal.
