New Coal-Fired Pizza Restaurant Comes To Natick

NATICK, MA —A popular pizza restaurant chain opened a location in Natick. Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza now has a restaurant at 219 N Main Street in Natick. There are four other restaurants part of the South Florida based chain in the state, including in Newton, Reading, Westwood and Littleton.

The Natick location is an open concept restaurant, allowing guests an up-close dining experience where they can see everything from the dough mixers, coal-fired ovens and bustling 'Pizza Theater' where it all comes together.

“As we expand in the northeast with our newest location in Natick, we continue to build our reputation for serving delicious food that’s made with authentic ingredients and a pleasurable dining experience that keeps people coming back,” said Wayne Jones, CEO of Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza.

To celebrate the Natick location's grand opening, the restaurant held a fundraiser where $3,300 was raised for the Pete Frates #3 Fund, a trust that supplies money for the medical, living and caregiving needs of Pete Frates, the well-known Massachusetts native who suffers from ALS and the inspiration for the Ice Bucket Challenge that swept the nation.

The restaurant is 2,938 square-feet and focuses on family-style dining. There are 108 seats surrounding what is affectionately known as the “Pizza Theater.” This showcase area features the restaurant’s coal-fired oven as well as the men and women who carefully craft each pizza and manage the temperament of the fire. There is also a full U-shaped bar located between the dining room and the indoor/outdoor patio.
