Jul 5, 2023, 4:00 PM

Since the pandemic, restaurants have seemingly been closing left and right around Denver, and this one really stings!

All five Pizzeria Locale restaurants in the Denver area will close and the business will be dissolved Monday.

Pizzeria Locale, known for its Neapolitan-inspired pizzas, opened its first Denver restaurant in 2013. There are five locations in the Denver area:

  • 550 Broadway
  • 895 Albion Street
  • 3484 W. 32nd Ave
  • 7505 E. 29th Place
  • 8575 E. Arapahoe Road in Greenwood Village

The chain is now owned by Chipotle Mexican Grill.

In a statement Wednesday, the company said, “We have made the decision to close all five Pizzeria Locale restaurants on July 10 and dissolve the business. Impacted employees have been extended employment opportunities at Chipotle restaurants in the Denver area.”
