Mellow Mushroom
Mellow Mushroom is a pizza restaurant chain that was established in Atlanta, Georgia in 1974. The founders were three college students from Georgia Tech who wanted to create a unique, eclectic pizza experience. The restaurant is known for its creative pizza combinations, craft beer selection, and vibrant, psychedelic-themed decor.
History[edit | edit source]
The first Mellow Mushroom restaurant was opened by Marc Weinstein, Mike Nicholson, and Chuck Watson. The three friends were inspired by their love of pizza and their desire to create a fun, laid-back dining experience. The restaurant quickly gained popularity for its unique pizzas and relaxed atmosphere.
Menu[edit | edit source]
Mellow Mushroom's menu primarily consists of pizza, but also includes a variety of other dishes such as calzones, hoagies, and salads. The restaurant is known for its creative pizza combinations, which often feature unusual ingredients like tempeh, tofu, and a variety of gourmet cheeses. Mellow Mushroom also offers a wide selection of craft beers, with a focus on local and regional breweries.
Locations[edit | edit source]
As of 2021, there are over 150 Mellow Mushroom locations across the United States. The majority of these are in the South, but the chain has been steadily expanding into other regions.
Culture[edit | edit source]
Mellow Mushroom is known for its vibrant, psychedelic-themed decor, which is a nod to the founders' college days in the 1970s. Each restaurant is uniquely decorated, with murals, sculptures, and other artwork that reflect the local culture and history of its location.
