Back in 1974, three undergrad friends in Atlanta, Georgia had a simple objective: to find a creative, progressive environment where they could enjoy the college staples of pizza and beer. When their search concluded without a spot they loved, the trio decided to open their own eclectic pizza joint in a beat-up building near the Georgia Tech campus. Today, their psychedelic pizza restaurant has locations throughout the US, with each eschewing a cookie-cutter feel by creating its own unique vibe.

The chefs specialize in gourmet pizzas, which come in eclectic flavors such as blue cheese, shrimp, and andouille sausage or chicken, cucumbers, and Thai chili sauce. Also on the menu are hearty, crusty hoagies and calzones, each with customizable options that allow clients to try out pairing ideas or see if tempeh and meatballs can coexist without canceling out all of existence itself. The shop caters to a range of dietary restrictions, offering seven styles of tofu and tempeh and vegan cheese, as well as gluten-free crusts and dough. Meals can be paired with any of the shop’s craft brews.
