Your Pie is an American fast-casual pizza concept, that was started in Athens, Georgia in 2008 by Drew French, and operates as a restaurant franchise with 70 locations across 19 states. Your Pie has customizable 10-inch pizzas, pasta bowls, and salads. The restaurant uses brick ovens to cook their pizzas.[1] Gelato (Italian ice cream), craft beer and wine are also available.
History
Founder Drew French worked in the kitchens of many franchise brands throughout his college career. In May 2006, French vacationed with his wife to the island of Ischia for their honeymoon, an Italian island off the coast of Naples, where his wife's family is from. It was here where the concept for Your Pie began. Brick oven pizza was everywhere in Ischia. Noticing how quickly custom, artisan pies could be made through using a brick oven, French's idea for a build-it-yourself, quick-serve pizza place came to be.[2]
Customization
Customers select which hand-tossed dough, homemade sauce, and all-natural cheese will be used for their customized pizza.[3]
