Home-Grown Industries of Georgia is the Franchisor of Mellow Mushroom Pizza Bakers.
Mellow Mushroom has been serving out-of-this-world, stone-baked pizzas since 1974. Founded in Atlanta, Georgia & now operating 160+ locations across 16 states, the iconic pizza bakers are all about being high on pizza, people and passion. Elevating the dining experience with A Higher Order of Pizza™, Mellow Mushroom’s coveted secret dough recipe and red sauce have garnered an enthusiastic following over the years.
Each location is locally owned and operated, providing a local flare baked in with Mellow’s trippy vibes, high quality, fresh ingredients and psychedelic artwork. Touted for its counterculture essence, Mellow Mushroom blends the boundaries between art, music, high-quality ingredients and passionate standards for dining.
Pizzeria Locale serves pizza inspired by the streets of Naples, Italy in the neighborhoods of Denver, CO. This ‘Neighborhood Neapolitan’ style was created as a result of founders Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson and Bobby Stuckey’s culinary travels throughout Italy and years of fine dining experience. The original full-service Pizzeria Locale opened in January 2011 and is adjacent to it’s sister restaurant Frasca Food and Wine on Pearl St. Before opening that first location Stuckey and Patterson sent long time Frasca Sous Chef, Jordan Wallace, to Naples, Italy for six months to learn the art of Neapolitan pizza making. Under the direction of Patterson, Stuckey and Wallace, Pizzeria Locale has opened two additional quick-serve locations in Denver which serve the highest quality ingredients in a contemporary and interactive atmosphere.
