Just a five-minute drive from the Lufkin Mall and open every day from 11a.m. to 10 p.m., Lufkin residents are welcome to stop by anytime for a delicious, chef-inspired pizza made from a selection of more than 28 fresh toppings, seven savory sauces and four made-from-scratch crusts.
Pie Five Franchisee, Nathan K. Cage, is thrilled to bring Pie Five's fast and unique model to the Lufkin area.
