Buddy's Pizza Opens In Plymouth

PLYMOUTH, MI — Buddy's Pizza, birthplace of the Original Detroit-Style Pizza, is bringing its pizza to Plymouth. The opening is set for Tuesday, July 16.

The grand opening will offer fans and customers many free pizza promotions, including the following specials:

• The first 100 people in line at 11 a.m. will receive coupons for free pizza - good for one pizza, per month, for one year
• The first 50 Plymouth email subscribers will receive a free pizza coupon
• Ten fans who tag Buddy's in photos on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram during opening week will randomly receive free pizza coupons

"We are happy to finally bring authentic Detroit-Style Pizza to Plymouth," said Wes Pikula, Chief Brand Officer. "Buddy's is appreciative of its fans and we're glad to be able to offer free pizza giveaways to give back to the community."

In Plymouth, Buddy's will partner with Buddy-to-Buddy, a program that trains veterans to provide peer support and linkage to resources for service members and veterans throughout Michigan. During opening week, Buddy's will donate $1 from every 8-square pizza sold to the Buddy-to-Buddy Program.

"We're grateful for the support that Buddy's has shown us over the years to serve veterans in our community," said Buddy-to-Buddy Program Manager, Bill Bryan. "It's important that businesses like Buddy's use their reach to bring attention to important causes."

The new Plymouth location, located at 15075 Beck Road less than a mile from USA Hockey Arena, is approximately 7,000-square-feet with room for 200 guests, including 25 seats on an outdoor patio. The urban store design will blend Buddy's tradition with modern industrial elements incorporating aspects of history from its original Detroit location where the Original Detroit-Style Pizza legacy began in 1946 - at the Buddy's Rendezvous Pizzeria on Six Mile and Conant street in Detroit.

Besides Detroit-style pizzas, the restaurant will feature gluten-free pizza, salads, burgers and more. The newest location will also feature a selection of craft brews, including Buddy's own signature craft beers, Buddy Brew and Bocce IPA, too.
