The pizza restaurant chain is looking to open its first location on Ashland Avenue this month, near the Roscoe Village, Lake View and Lincoln Park border.
Jet’s Pizza, the 17th largest pizza chain in America, is planning to open its first Chicago restaurant within the next few weeks, according to Jet’s America Corp.
Located at 2811 N. Ashland Ave. near the intersection with Diversey Parkway, the pizza chain will be right between Lake View, Lincoln Park and Roscoe Village. This will be Jet’s Pizza’s first venture in Chicago, with other locations in Skokie, Arlington Heights and Lombard nearby.
The new pizza joint will serve up its famous deep-dish square pizza; sides like cheesy bacon bread; five different types of salad; sub sandwiches and Coke products. It also boasts eight different pizza crusts like butter, Parmesan cheese and Cajun.
