BJ's Pizza House, a staple of the Lafayette foodie scene, is set to remain at its original W Congress Street location, thanks to the efforts of four local community members.
This comes after speculation about its future was sparked by recent construction activity at the restaurant site. The new ownership, comprising dedicated locals, has taken the reins to preserve and rejuvenate the beloved pizza franchise that many thought was gone forever.
Fans of BJ's Pizza can breathe a sigh of relief as the new owners promise to maintain everything that has made the restaurant a cherished spot in Lafayette. A source close to the new ownership team revealed that the establishment will undergo its first major makeover in 25 years, described as a "wall-to-wall" remodel. However, the essence of BJ's, as fans fondly remember it, will be carefully preserved.
From the classic wooden booths adorned with customers' names to the nostalgic arcade games, the "new" BJ's Pizza will retain its familiar charm.
What's more, the upgrades will not compromise the restaurant's soul. The new team is committed to keeping the atmosphere and menu that have defined BJ's for decades. This includes the unaltered, classic pizza recipe, a key aspect that the new team, in collaboration with the original owner, is keen to preserve.
