All of our fresh hand-stretched dough is made fresh every day in every store. Our Original™ style pizzas have more fresh toppings than any of our competitors. With each bite of an Original, you'll taste all the toppings, sauce and crust, whether it's our Sticky Fingers Pizza (loaded with eight toppings) or any of our create your own, specialty and premier pizzas.

But as the times have changed, so have we. Not everyone likes thick crust and many people are price conscious. So, in 2011 we launched our new Pizza D'Lish line, with thinner crust and a nice balance of toppings. In most of our stores, all large D'Lish pizzas sell for just $7.99. This product has been a fantastic addition to our full product line and has improved sales even during the down economy.



About Crazy Dough's

Crazy Dough’s Pizza first opened in 1999 in Boston, Mass, when husband and wife team, Doug and Melissa Ferriman, created an artisan slice bar in the heart of Boston. They named it Crazy Dough’s because the pizza (and its famous grilled-crust) was so innovative and CRAZY good!

Now Crazy Dough’s Pizza has a cool new look and feel, awesome new pizza creations, same award-winning crust, and opportunities to franchise in new markets. Check out our newest location in Sugar Hill, Georgia as well as 3 new locations in Georgia: Buford, Midtown Atlanta, and Duluth.

Through its parent company, Georgia Franchise Group (GFG), Crazy Dough’s Pizza is looking for new franchisees ready to embrace our culture and to make a difference in their communities.
