Blues Fired Pizza food truck to open a brick and mortar

Another area food truck is putting down roots. The owners of Blues Fired Pizza (formerly Pyro Pizza) are in the process of opening a drive-up/walk-up brick and mortar location at 10800 Big Bend Blvd. in Kirkwood.

Co-owner Tony Lee said the location, which has formerly housed coffee and custard stands, will serve as a commissary for the truck, as well as another place to sell its pizza. The new space will share the same menu as the truck and will utilize a similar wood-fired grill. Lee said there will be tables outside during warmer weather for those who want to “dine in.”

The space will be convenient for diners who can’t follow the truck, and for the owners as well.

“My business partner and I both live in Kirkwood, and this is only a few blocks from our houses,” Lee said.

He hopes the location will be up and running by late January or early February.
