"Unfortunately, we suffered a major fire this morning. Luckily, no one was hurt," a social media post read. "We are devastated. Thank you, everyone, for your continuous support. It is appreciated more than you know. Will we be closed until further notice."

The establishment, located at 25 E Main Street in Denville, has been open since 2022 and has gained massive popularity, specifically with its thin-crust-style pizza.

The establishment's pie even earned an 8.5 from Barstool's David Portnoy, a self-described pizza connoisseur who travels the country rating pizzas.

Beside Cafe Crevier is the soon-to-be-opened Throttle Racing Club, which was scheduled to have its grand opening on Saturday.

While significant smoke entered the structure, there has been no significant damage to Throttle Racing Club's space.

"Our hearts are with Café Crevier. A difficult day for our neighbors. We’re doing everything we can to keep moving forward," a social media post read. "We are doing everything in our power to keep our grand opening on schedule for Saturday."

Cafe Crevier owner Brittany Crevier told NJ.com that fire officials are conducting an investigation into what caused the blaze.
