The ears of everyone over thirty-five perked up when they heard the news.
Sbarro announced the addition of its latest Oklahoma restaurant in a press release earlier this week. The new restaurant is located at the DAK’s Market on 309 N Mission St. The restaurant officially opened for business on Wednesday.
This is the first Sbarro location in Sapulpa, and the first in the metro-Tulsa area in years. The next closest Sbarro location can be found in Oklahoma City.
Every 80s and 90s kid who spent their teenage years at the Promenade Mall in Tulsa should be familiar with the aroma of Sbarro’s pizza chain. The Brooklyn-based restaurant first opened in 1956 and their New York-style pizza was so popular that they began opening additional locations and almost single-handedly created a new line of restaurants called “impulse pizza.”
Sapulpa’s Sbarro was made possible through an agreement with franchise partner Kevin Lapierre, CEO of DAK’s Market. In recent years, Sbarro has significantly expanded its domestic and international presence through franchise partners.
“We are pleased to continue our partnership with Sbarro during this exciting time within the company,” said Lapierre. “We are looking forward to bringing New York style pizza, stromboli and pasta to DAK’s Market’s many visitors.”
The iconic brand, best known for selling authentic New York-style pizza-by-the-slice for over 65 years, is now the global leader in the impulse pizza category.
