Crust Pizza Co. is set to open its second Baton Rouge location near the intersection of Burbank and Lee drives.
The restaurant will go into the space at 660 Arlington Creek Centre Drive formerly occupied by Mid Tap.
Crust specializes in Chicago-style, thin-crust pizzas, which are dramatically different from the stereotypical Chicago deep-dish pie. A thin-crust pie has a foundation that is more like a snappy cracker, and the pie is cut into small squares.
Crust Pizza chain has 37 locations in Louisiana and Texas, with a Millerville Road restaurant and sites in Lake Charles, Sulphur and Moss Bluff.
