Atlanta’s Favorite Build-Your-Own Pizza Restaurant Opens in Buford Near Mall of Georgia

 This week, Uncle Maddio’s Pizza Joint is celebrating the opening of our first Gwinnett County location near the Mall of Georgia in Buford with a grand opening party on Saturday, June 22. From 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., we'll give away free 9” three-topping pizzas to all guests and provide family-friendly entertainment like a stilt walker, face painting, and an inflatable. We officially open our doors on Thursday, June 20 at 11:00 a.m., and we'll feature live music on Friday, June 21 from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. This opening will be the 10th Uncle Maddio’s location in the greater Atlanta area.

So what is Uncle Maddio's? Some people have called us the “Chipotle of pizza.” In short, we answer the call for more choices and better food with a menu that gives customers more than 3 million pizza combinations. We have three types of crusts (white, wheat, and gluten-free), six sauces, seven cheeses (including Daiya vegan cheese), and 47 different fresh toppings, including locally-sourced, freshly delivered vegetables, hormone-free chicken, organic greens, and handmade meatballs and sausages. We also serve hot, toasted paninis and made-to-order salads.

“The folks in Buford are going to love Uncle Maddio’s pizza,” said Uncle Maddio’s Mall of Georgia franchise owner Donald Lamar. “It puts a new spin on going out for pizza – everyone can get exactly what they want without having to share or pick off toppings they don’t like. Uncle Maddio’s is also good at getting involved with the community, sponsoring local events and fundraising efforts. We can’t wait to get started!”

The new Uncle Maddio’s is located at 3320 Buford Drive near the Mall of Georgia, across from Best Buy, in Buford, Georgia. We'll be next to The School Box and near Kirkland’s. We'll be providing new jobs for the area and new and exciting dining, catering, and after-hours event options for locals and businesses.

“We’re thrilled to be joining Gwinnett County,” said Uncle Maddio’s founder and Chief Pizza Maker Matt Andrew. “Uncle Maddio’s has been a huge hit around Atlanta – the Buford location is our 10th area restaurant! People love our gourmet-style pizza for its fresh ingredients and the fact that it’s ready in six minutes.  It’s great for families and lunch-goers – friendly, fast, affordable, and really, really good food.”

Uncle Maddio’s launched the build-your-own pizza market four years ago with the opening of its first restaurant on North Druid Hills Road in Atlanta. It is the fastest growing new pizza franchise and will have 20 locations open throughout the Southeast this summer.
