8 Thousand Pizza Opens, Brings Unique Tap Room Setup To Milford Mall

MILFORD, CT — A ribbon-cutting was held for a recently opened restaurant at the mall, 8 Thousand Pizza.

The restaurant offers customers a different experience with a tap room with 30 taps for beer and four taps for wine for customers to pour themselves.

"Instead of having to wait for a server to come to you, you are able to serve your self whenever you need a refill," a statement from the Chamber of Commerce reads. "No more sitting with an empty glass in front of you as you watch your server struggle to get to you because they are busy, at 8000 Pizza you just walk over to the tap, tap your bracelet, and pour yourself a beverage."

There's a two-pint, or 32-ounce limit, to control how much people drink.

The restaurant includes 24 types of pizzas cooked in a cast-iron skillet, 16 pizza toppings, wings, and fries. The restaurant itself features 18 televisions.

The ribbon-cutting held Wednesday was hosted by the Regional Chamber of Commerce. Mayor Anthony Giannattasio was on hand to congratulate the owners Sky Coronel and Tommy Nguyen.

The restaurant is located in the CT Post Mall next to the main entrance on the Boston Post Road side near Macys.

8 Thousand Pizza is open daily from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
